SubVerse

For those of you who don’t know, I co-wrote the video game ASSASSIN’S CREED II. A very exciting gig to be part of.

Just last week, one of the sequences I wrote solo was released as a DLC (Downloadable Content) – and to promote it, a trailer was released.

You have to watch it. This is very cool.

I love seeing all my dialogue and action scenes rearranged into trailer moments.

My favorite is a line taken from the beginning of the sequence — when Ezio hears he’s going to be helping the very sexy Caterina Sforza. And being the horndog he is, says: “I think I’m going to like this mission.” — But for the trailer, they build up slowly to it, using all these incredible action shots: Boom! Boom! Boom! And then cut to Ezio, smiling knowingly:

“I think I’m going to like this mission.”

Title up: “AC2: The Battle of Forli!”

It’s a fun mission.

Go play.

meaning simply… do you really need so much of it?
here’s a fun little Flash anime Time Eater for all you with just too much of it.
a little old school skateboarding, Atari “Pitfall” style.
it’s utterly pointless and repetitive, and yet, i don’t know, tapping away at those little arrow keys (and Space to jump!) brings a sort of Zen calm over me.
