Okay, those of you that know me know that I am quite loath to pick up and play a new competitive game. So far ST and VF5 are pretty much the only two I play.
But now there is another.
Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood to me feels like a multiplayer fighting game. Not in the mechanics, which are quite simple: You press X to kill someone, or B to punch your killer. But there’s a suprising amount of depth to the game. Are you going to run around killing people agressively with no regard to your own safety? Will you be discreet and hide in groups, getting fewer kills but higher quality?
You can pick various abilities, which is sort of the equivalent of picking your character in a fighting game. There are defensive abilities, offensive abilities, general use ones. You can switch your abilities out whenever you die. Learning which abilities to use when is a lot of fun.
Here’s a video with commentary I think is pretty entertaining and good to get started on strategy:

Anyways the reason I’m making this thread is I want to play private games with SRK people. Level up and treat this like a real game. I’m playing this pretty much almost every weeknight. So post here if you play this, and we’ll get serious!
). I still think it’s a cool game, but anyone who has played a fighting game at a competent level in the past 20 years hates it, but plays it for the comp. As stated, has a lot of comp and the online connection isn’t too bad (It’s no VF or VO:OT, but hey…).
