It is a light week of games with only 2 titles on the show. Things kick-off with Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines for PSP. Ryan and Matt are discussing the game and it sounds like it is really only for die-hard fans of the series. The PSP just can’t quite handle a game of this scope.
Tony Hawk: Ride is the only other game this week, and the discussion here steers away from being overly negative. Cesar and Jason are skateboarders, so they provide a unique perspective, but there isn’t much new here that hasn’t been said elsewhere. Whether it is in the hardware or the software, the execution is just off, and the game is ruined because of it.
Half the team was on vacation for a while, so this week’s show is a wee bit shorter than normal–but don’t let that fool you into thinking it’s any less awesome! ‘Cause it ain’t! The big feature this week is the latest offering meant to swell your collection of plastic peripherals: Tony Hawk: Ride. We’ve got some skaters in the Area 5 crew and they’ll give you the skinny. Before that, though, is a look at the surprisingly well-done, PSP version of Assassin’s Creed. Is it worth it to you PSP owners out there? Find out.
