Assassin's Creed: The Ezio Collection Review

The newest Assassin's Creed game came out as "Assassin's Creed The Ezio Collection" on November 17, 2016. It contains three of the games from the Assassin's Creed series, "Assassin's Creed 2, Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, Assassin's Creed Revelations." Now if you already have these games on another console like an XBox 360, maybe you would want to get this game for a next generation console like the PlayStation 4. But it might not be the best move because you would basically be buying the games all over again and you won't have the same data as you did before.

This game is honestly not worth buying. I bought it thinking it was a whole new game from the series but I was wrong, it's just three of the old games from the series.
Other than that it is still a good game in my opinion because I used to play Assassin's Creed on my Xbox but then I got a PlayStation 4 and I was always playing on that instead. That's why I decided to get this game but soon realized it wasn't what I thought it would be. It was disappointing but when I started playing it, I had a lot of fun because like in all Assassin's Creed games, you get to do parkour. Parkour, also named free-running, is a fast paced movement that is all based on momentum and keeping your momentum at a constant speed. Ubisoft did a great job with implementing this into the game because you are almost always wanted by the "police" if you will, so it's a great way to get out of trouble as fast as you can.

Black Ops III Review

Well, we probably have all heard of the newest Black Ops game, Black Ops III. It takes place in the future with futuristic weapons and abilities with exo-suits. This game is pretty good and it came out on November 6, 2015. It's a basic concept, kill everyone you see and survive, just like most first person shooter games.  One thing that is especially good about the game is the weapons that you need to unlock in the black market which makes you need luck to get the good weapons instead of them being available to all players.

One other thing that is very interesting in the game is how some weapons work. What I mean by this is that some weapons shoot fully automatic, semi-automatic, burst-fire, charge up, and many other shooting styles, including projectile rounds.

So let's talk about one of the bad things in the game, the pay-to-win system. The pay-to-win system is basically just a way for players to get the best weapons by purchasing COD Points to open supply drops to get the weapons shown above. This system also just broke the game, making it less fun for other people who faced players that use the pay-to-win system because they could get killed by the best weapons over, and over, and over again which would discourage them from playing the game.
Other than that it is a pretty good game, like all Black Ops games.
