Assassin's Creed 3 for Wii U puts the Animus, weapons in your hands

Mar 27th 2012 12:21AM (Joystiq)
This looks pretty nice for the WiiU, alas I've never bought a nintendo (except the classics, finished with advance) that I played it that often.

If things get better with more diverse games, might even consider into buying it. But please no more Nintendo Classics as prime-advertisement sellers, even though I love mario, metroid, link, and other classic figures I think nintendo needs to change a bit and go experimental on games like this one.

Although all would be forgiven for a Skyrim-graphic like Pokemon game.

@8bitartist So THAT'S the reason why games are starting to be a bit repetitive....

So you want to be a community rep? Here's what you do:
- Pick up your resume (if you have one)
- If not - Make one, and don't forget beta-testing doesn't count for jack these days, if at any period of time. You have of course something that shows that you have been in a indoor beta test.
- 2 Things might happen after you send your resume:
A) They will throw it in the trash, or laugh at it and THEN throw it in the trash
B) They might set up an interview with you if they like what they see (obviously with that kind of attitude you aren't getting anywhere fast)

THEN the fun begins!
- You go to Activision HQ and speak with HR people and whatnot. They will be so kind to offer you coffee which you will drink promptly. In the coffee though you will notice a different taste and numbness. Thats the rohypnol they complementary add to all the new candidates.
- After this you will go through the standard procedures, like anal probing, brain washing, babinski test, high velocity throwing (you being the object obviously).
- And again there are 2 options:
- They might just making this for kicks, because they are swimming in moolah so much they get tedious with the fight to the death arena in the depts of the HQ scene and want a more hands-on approach.
- Or you might get accepted and join the fold, they will provide you with a timeframe, and usually help moving (lots of companies do that nowadays).

Remember:
- Don't act like a jackass
- When you wake up don't feel embarrassed just say its from working too hard, they know its not true but they want convincing liars there.
- If you get accepted you lose your soul. Permanently, just look at the guy in the post
- But most importantly ...

Have some actually decent arguments to base your discussion, and not I actually have a pretty decent knowledge of consoles and games, its like me saying I have a pretty good understanding of butt holes so wanna try to be a proctologist.
