Season One of JRT springs to life, as we revisit the timeless free-running lifestyle of vigilantes through a thorough review of Assassin’s Creed II. Featuring vengeance, flashbacks and atrocious accents.
The Assassin’s Creed II video is being encoded, for about the billionth time, as we speak, while all of us here at JRT are already hard at work for the next instalment. Things will hopefully go to plan for once, now that advertising is kicking in and the site actually gets traffic.
Speaking of which, if you are a new visitor, you might want to first check the lighter, more “newcomer-friendly” JRT episodes, Punch-Out!! & Monkey Island SE. Of course, we also have the epic, 5-part, Metal Gear Solid 4 review/playthrough, but its terrifying length & troubling sound means it’s probably best left for last.
Also, under the break follows a list of new releases most likely to help us have a fantastic December!
Break-time is over and we return to reviews of considerable proportions, only fit for Ciao!, with my take on Assassin’s Creed II. If three thousand words feel a bit too much for you, and I can’t possibly blame you, show a little more patience and wait for the video version, already in the editing room!
While it may seem like I’m dropping the ball, I assure you we are tirelessly working behind the scenes to get the site up to speed and to make sure there is a steady flow of content for you to enjoy when the first ever official season of JRT starts, late November.
I feel it’s wiser to build up a buffer for a while and then release new reviews every couple of weeks at worst, rather than keeping up the current rate of one video per month, at best.
Meanwhile, feel free to be distracted by my list of promising games coming out this month!
September flew by, thanks to things like making an unplanned trip abroad, but we have reviews on the back-burner and it’s time to take a look at this month’s most intriguing releases!
The next video review is being uploaded as I’m writing this, so we’ll soon find out if the third time is indeed a charm. Meanwhile, I can tell by the gleam in your eyes that you might be looking for something more…
Starting off the year with a game that kept a low profile at the time but went on to start a blockbuster series: Assassin’s Creed for the X360, PS3 and, later, the PC.
The spotlight returns to blockbusters, as me and my sense of time meet Oblivion.
Sticking with football after the FM2007 review, we hit the field with the last great Pro Evolution Soccer.
