A few good games.....in the last few months

I have been playing a lot of third person action adventure these past few months...
to first start with i just loved the Batman arkham asylum. nicely done game with all of the surprise elements and not to mention the cool and agile moves of my favourite hero along with some splendid and villainous AI of the characters in the game.. the gun slinging... reverse take downs and the sneaking investigation of the JOKERS grand plan are all awesome...
Then i played The Saboteur an awesome game that spell bounds any one with the varied gameplay sequence and some Bombs and blast that you thoroughly enjoy to kill or be killed in a Nazi occupied France.. the game has a very poor parkour agility as you have to do everything with a two button input( even the simple climb over a box is tough with some dexterity to your fingers) but one could enjoy the through spoils of the game graphic scenes!!! yes, you know what i mean... forget the hot-coffee mod and others.. you can visit a secret location in the pub where you can pay money to watch strippers to DO their stuff... dance... groove.. and all.... the rest is awesome you get to explore France(city of Paris .. not to mention the iconic Eiffel tower, where the climax takes place). A must play if you are an adventurer,explorer and a gunslinger( or maybe a bazooka)
then, i played Star wars- the force unleashed, good game with lots of puzzles and some action but the AI is too stupid( i died very few times from the enemies fire than from the gripping puzzles that goes to greater lengths to jump and do stuff in time. The game is OK for casual playing but when you are a Star wars fan to see and hear lot of (zoing and boing) from your light saber then i definitely say you would like this game very much along with some jedi powers at your disposal like manoeuvre things and the rest...

Finally, my favourite, the Assassin`s creed 2.... no words to say the experience.. wonderful.. gruesome kills.. superb AI.. increased gameplay... non repeatable sequences and a awe struck ending( i never expected that they would tie the incidents to say a story of the 2012 apocalypse in a 14th century Rome) seriously, i am waiting for the next game to be out( which they say would take a year in dec. 2011 maybe...) but they are releasing a separate online franchise called The Brotherhood, with Ezio as the head of them all.... in coming November..
