I've got AC:Brotherhood but I've been wrapped up in finally trying to finish everything in AC2 to open it up just yet. I can't find one last glyph and it's driving me crazy.

Therein lies the frustration. I just revisited every city... according to every map on a cheat site and I still missed it. Of course I had to collect feathers as well. I was never much of a multitasker.

I need the equivalent of Rockstar's Social Club website for AC2 to figure out what I'm missing.

Do you know which glyph is missing? I know there are a couple I had a really hard time with.

Not a clue. I've got to go back through again. I really think it's in Florence. Looking at the pictures on the cheats I don't remember finding the one on the San Lorenzo.

I think that might be the one that is in some barely visible nook that takes forever to find. Sucks that I may have to play AC2 all over again to platinum it.

The only trophy you can miss is the one where you kick the guards on Leonardo's flying machine, right? Did you beat the 10 guys in continuous combat without taking a hit? I can't seem to come close to that one.

Re: Weekly Wed/Fri Rotating Game Nights (PS3)

Played BFBC2 all morning. The game has got charm for sure...despite me getting my ass kicked on a regular basis. The pace of it is much slower than Warhawk, and you really have to play cautious...at least on hardcore mode, which I prefer. There is some twitch, but you're really rewarded for just doing your job. I've been playing the medic...dropping health packs strategically and shocking dudes back to life (which is fully bad ass).

I also played very late last night with Marcus and Gonzo.

I'll try to fire up Transformers this weekend. It's on the B1G1 half-off on Amazon list, so I need to see if it's worth the $22.50 I'd pay for it...also would need to think of a second game.

Not much interest in AC. I don't have the patience for a stealth multi-player game.

The kicker is that it is not slow paced since its not just 1v1. You can't sit back and hide you've got to balance moving with stealth.

Re: Weekly Wed/Fri Rotating Game Nights (PS3)

Officially hooked on BFBC2.

I'm mostly playing conquest in hardcore. I like hardcore because armor is so low it offsets those kids who can no-scope you in the face from halfway across the map, and it removes the HUD, which I can't be bothered with anyway. Hell, I can barely keep up with the HUD in Warhawk. It's technically a better game than Warhawk, or at least it has superior technology...but it does lack some of the simplicity and charm of Warhawk and the aircraft control like ass. The destruction engine is simply amazing...probably better than the one in Red Faction even. It's awesome when you roll a tank into an area and see a guy run into a building, and you just take out the whole wall he's hiding behind.

I like conquest because it reduces the effectiveness of snipers. They are still plentiful and annoying, and they still get lots of kills, but I don't think they are all that effective in terms of winning the game.

I've played every class, and I'm am very partial to the medic. It's fun to leave health packs in strategic places and just see points pop up, and it's bad ass when you're in a group of 3-4 holed up somewhere and you're bringing them back to life over and over. Gratuitous video:
