Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
The results are in for TIME’s top 10 games of 2012.
Here’s how things panned out:
1. Guild Wars 2
2. Xenoblade Chronicles
3. XCOM: Enemy Unknown
4. Dishonored
5. Assassin’s Creed III
6. Papo & Yo
7. The Last Story
8. LittleBigPlanet Vita
9. Halo 4
10. Torchlight
I’ve got to say… I’m impressed that TIME actually included two Wii games in its list. Xenoblade Chronicles in particular is certainly deserving of the honor!

3DS owners will be able to purchase Bit.Trip Saga from the eShop on December 20. The game’s price tag will be just $14.99. Not a bad price at all!
Assassin’s Creed III was originally going to let players scalp enemies, but it was cut after history said that never happened
Posted on 12 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Assassin’s Creed III is a pretty positive and honest representation of the Mowhawk people, according to members of the tribe and historians who study it. A big reason for this is because Ubisoft brought on a man named Thomas Deer, who is a cultural liaison officer working for the Kahnawake Language and Cultural Center, to help make sure they didn’t misrepresent or include anything offensive, false, or demeaning about Mowhawk culture in the game.
Originally the game allowed players (who play as a Mowhawk tribesman) to scalp enemies, but according to Deer that never happened in the particular tribe that the game represents. So they took it out!
