Runescape

Okay guys, now I know most of you have played this MMORPG for the PC, but for all those who havn't - this is a review to maybe push you into visiting the website and signing on to play.
First of all, Runescape is a FREE Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game, probably the best FREE game of its kind - you start off in Tutorial Island where you will be shown the basics of playing Runescape, such as cooking, combat, ranging, magic, woodcutting, mining and smithing.
Runescape can be very fun and also very addictive (as with any RPG) so make sure it doesn't effect your life; enjoy it occasionally.
The Runescape playing area is HUGE with many free cities, hundreds of 'worlds' to play in with your friends, hundreds of thousands of players and dozens of quests that need completing; as well as the Wilderness (player vs. player combat) being intergrated back into the game, there isn't a better time to start playing and have fun!
The graphics are forever getting better and more advanced, also the game itself is always updated to have more quests and areas to explore etc.
There is also a membership you can buy for a very cheap £4 a month, this unlocks every city, every skill you can work on and every quest you could ever imagine doing! There are hours upon hours of fun you can have working on your character and playing with your friends, the Runescape world is so vast and there is so much to do that you won't know where to start!

Game Rating: 9.5

Assassin's Creed games

Assassins Creed, probably my favourite game series, is a game series for the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC (which also has spin-offs on Wii and handheld devices) in which you play as assassins basically killing targets which unfolds many different stories and side-quests.
Sounds simple, and to be honest it is, the game controls are very easy to get used to and at the same time it is very enjoyable as well as satisfying completing missions. It has stunning HD graphics and is definately at the top of it's league for visual gameplay and cut-scenes.
More on the stories of the games, you play as a character called Damien who is locked up in a cell, and is forced to use the 'Animus' to unlock secrets about his ancestors' past - this is obviously the starting point and as the story unfolds, a small team break him out of his cell to use his ancestors' secrets for the good of mankind's future. Anyway, no more spoilers so don't worry about that haha. But there is the highly anticipated Assassin's Creed Revelations coming out in November 2011, a game to look out for.
But honestly, I havn't encountered any game series that has such a mindblowing and gripping storyline, definately a game to buy; I rate this game 9.5/10.
