Darth Mole’s Backlog – You Decide!
Posted by Darth Mole on Jul 26, 2011 in Lounge | 4 comments
Ok, after reading over Spooner’s backlog post I came up with the below list. It is my current backlog. You, my thousand upon thousands upon thousands of imaginary readers now get to decide the first game I take down. Simply respond in the comments as to which game you think I should smack down first and I’ll get right on. If none of you respond within a few days three things will happen 1) you will die 2) I will be a sad mole 3) I’ll decide for myself which as all my friends know; is a bad thing. So dont’ let the end of the world come about!
-Mass Effect (PC)
-Mass Effect 2 (PC)
-Starcraft 2 (PC)
-Torchlight (PC)
-Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood (Xbox 360)
-Assassin’s Creed II (Xbox 360)
-Batman Arkham Asylum (Xbox 360)
I’ve started every game listed above save for ACII which I don’t own yet.
acb and ac2 >.> i indulged in the steam summer sale and picked up the three assassin titles so i must know how fun they are! or something. but .. torchlight .. and arkham ..
no no assassin first. preferably the one you already own. thrifty mole!
pwease?

You are the second person I know that plays or will play AC on the computer. I wonder how it is with the keyboard or if people just use a controller for the PC to play the game. Also, to call me thrifty is like calling me skinny; just isn’t so.
I played it on the 360 at a friend’s house and own all three Assassin’s Creed games for the PC. You’re not missing anything on the PC that you had on the console. I prefer the PC myself because it has more power and a better resolution than my console, my console is busted at the moment because Msoft made faulty crap, and I can just have the wiki open in my 2nd screen for quick reference.
I gave the same treatment to Mass Effect 2. I have ME1 and 2 for the 360 and all the DLC right, played and beat it there. I was given (from DA2) a free copy of Mass Effect 2 for the PC. It looked a lot better I mean holy shit better. Once you get used to having to right click to zoom/iron sight your weapons and such you’ve just figured out the entire game and it flows just as smooth.
As for the backlog bro, play through the Mass Effect series and the DLC first because it’s freaking awesome. But if you already LIKE Assassin’s Creed and are vested in the story you might want to start playing (dunno how long it takes for you to finish a game) so you’ll finish by the time Revelations is released later this year. That way there’s no break in the gameplay/story between titles.
Do you use the keyboard for Assassin’s Creed or do you have a controller? I can’t stand FPS’s on the console (I will only tolerate HALO and Gears of War on console and only because I don’t have patience to wait for the PC versions) so ME on the PC isn’t new to me but AC with the keyboard seems the opposite of FPS’s in regard to what I would prefer.
