Bought Assassin's Creed Brotherhood the other day. I was playing multiplayer and thought it would make a good IRL game. For those who don't know, the multiplayer mode has you taking on the task of assassinating a player online, all the while avoiding getting assassinated by a different player. Going from being a hunter to running for your life as the hunted is exhilerating.
Turns out there is a real life version of this game. It's called Assassin and receives most of its attention from college students (I would put university students but I think it's mostly an american thing).
Penny Arcade (www.penny-arcade.com) did a great strip on the multiplayer mode in AC Brotherhood.
5 comments so far on my previous post. That's currently £5 to a children's charity. Thank you commenters :)
I'm working this week even though I was supposed to have had the week off. I'll explain tomorrow using trollface and the like.
G'night all.
Oh, so many games in my backlog. The multiplayer does seem interesting.
