Time to celebrate! Its holiday season and its that time of the year when they release new games for PCs and Gaming consoles. So here I am to start my shopping with a wish list as long as the Santa's beard.This year, I had a chance to get into the stores earlier than usual for my game shopping. Game shopping for me is what Oktoberfest is for Germans or any beer lover for that matter. So it seems to be for most of my gaming brethren. It was like a fest going on in the stores. Guitar Hero III seems to be the flavor of the season. Everyone queued up to play the demo setups in the stores. It indeed is a nice game with cool guitar like controls. Without a doubt, anyone would like it. No wonder everyone's shopping cart is filled with guitars (I mean game controls, fake but nevertheless).
Crysis was another game that was getting a lot of attention. Seems to be a good FPS. I must say that FPS games have come a long way since Quake or Doom. Halo 3 was also going strong. But I am not into FPS gaming. So I'd skip them anyday.
The one game I was looking forward to was "Assassin's Creed". And it was disappointing to find that the game was released only on XBox 360 and PS3. All I have is a wii and its not released for this platform. And the PC version is yet to be released, which I'm sure will not play on my antique desktop. Sux! After Prince of Persia series, this was one game I felt which had great artwork. And as the writers said, the environment was "Organic" which means that you can interact with non-play characters or at least there is an affect if you mess with NPCs. I just hope they release it on wii too :"(. Hope Santa listens to my prayers. I have been a good boy this year and even if I did slip up, I will make it up in the next. Santa puh-leeze!
