@xboxrulez- What are you talking about?
A 1 gb GTX 260 would blow th 360 out of the water. Oh and a 20 gb HD is TINY

It's people like mentalityljs that ruin PC gamers' reputation. Getting all wound up because someone started getting on your PC. Pathetic.

@ xboxrulez, 20 gigs is nothing, compared to the ps3 (any of them), its half as small, like therat said, there is 40, 60, 80, and 120 gigs, im sorry, so therefore, you have no argument, pretty much anything has a bigger hard drive than the xbox 360 (and its very iritating when you cant fit more DLC), and as for the article, it was great, especially with the enhanced AI, the old one was sort of oblivious, and the more modern gadgets are gonna be awesome, cant wait to get it!!

I was really hupedfor AC originally and looked for info about it at every turn yet when it landed it took me literally an age to bother finishing. God it was dull if you played for more tan half an hour! Loads of potential and a lot of cool moments but they were interspersed by a ton of repetition in missions. Bloody eavesdropping and pickpocketing(with terrible detection system)for every assassination, having to climb EVERY damn towr you found, not to mention the interminable horse rides between cities!

No, I don't(Fallout3 apart-two broken shooting mechanics and a loss of atmosphere does NOT make a sequel to the greatest series EVER, imo)think I've been more let down b a game in ages. Some games let you down but you didn't have the huge hopes I did for the first AC and afteran hour or so I found myself wanting to put the pad down-and if I didn't always finish the games I start I doubt I'd have made it to halfway in AC1.

There was, though, still great parts to it and great potential for the series and I pray they've sorted it all out for this game. There certainly looks to be fewer "eavesdrops" and more variety to AC2's missions and the addition of Da Vinci and the gadgets is brilliant so, with luck, it seems I might get the kind of game I'd hoped for originall though after being stung the once I might rent first or wait for a drop in price, esp with so much out from now til next April!

how are they going to carry on the old stoyryline and is Altair the new Head of Assasins?
Pyrophobia  - 2 months 4 days ago 
@terdferguson Altair's been dead for almost 500 years.

@everyone Just for general info, the standard Xbox 360 has a 60GB hard-drive, with Elites coming in at 120GB. Also, the Xbox 360 currently has the largest hard-drive for any console (excluding PCs), coming in at 250GB.

And on a personal note, I prefer thumbsticks to a mouse and keyboard. Just saying...

@thedocument:

Very true, i agree. However, if you're buying a cross platform game for your PC, chances are you're a PC gamer, and would more than likely have a fairly decent machine if you were serious enough about gaming. Plus, xboxrulez makes everything sound like a pile of shit compared to the 360. Which reminds me...

@xboxrulez:

Not sure what decade you're stuck in, but most PC's come with at LEAST a 500Gb HD, not a puny 20Gb. And that "man in the shop" lied to you! Not trying to be a dick, but you should do a little research on your 360 specs and compare it to what's out there.

@oryandymackie:
No one got on my PC, I was clerifying for xboxrulez that a gaming rig's specs are greater than the 360's! The 360 is a great system, but come ON, have a little more knowledge about what hardaware is out there b4 making such bold statements like he does!
