Hahaha! Man, I had a good old time doing this:

On an informer mission in the southwest part of Jerusalem during memory block 4 I think and informer said he would give me some good information but I had to take out 3 guards with pointy helmets (see the one with the special armor in the lower left here) without being noticed to get it. Needless to say, that didn't work right away and a few minutes later I tried again and the more guards I killed, the harder it was to kill the actual targets because more and more regular guards kept appearing to "investigate" who was "responsible for this". :P I could have kept going with the slaughter but I had some last minute shopping to do! Good times though. :thumbs:
 
Recently I've taken to amassing a large mob chasing me, climbing a ladder, and then forming a pile at the bottom by booting them all off in succesion. They never learn. :)
 
I loved the final bit where you just run through killing hordes of guards, had a cool LoTR feel
 
Reminds me of Lancelot's run in the Holy Grail too. :E

Its a great game for this type of thing. I still laugh when I stealth kill guards who are examining my fresh kills...over and over and over again! :laugh:

You ran?

I fought and killed every single one. Got some achievement for it too. It was pretty cool.
 
I didnt get an acheivement :(

I'm far too lazy to go and actually find 25 guards, I just hoped there were enough. Also, how are you supposed to fight for 10 MINUTES?!?! That would just be so boring.
 
hope they fix the 'dumb ai' moments for the pc version?
 
Honestly, sometimes it's more fun when games have poor AI like this, just so you can do ridiculous things without repercussions.
This is why I find older games often much more fun than newer games.
 
Victim, get a Blackmagic Design Intensity Pro capture card. :E
 
Don't worry, AC's wierd control scheme practically guarantees that it can't be ported well to the PC.
Pff, it'll port easily. It's basically only 2 or 3 buttons 90% of the time - it could just be WASD for movement, mouse for looking around, button 1 for attack, button 2 for run/high profile, and space for sprint/jump. The rest is just weapon switching and stuff.

Hahaha! Yeah, I have been looking into some options in this realm. I will do a little research on this one and see where it goes. A digital camera for HD screenshots will only get you so far. :D
 
glad I ddnt fall for the hype, still gonna 'get it' on PC though

Haha, that was quite a good shot though. More than half of the photos when I tried taking a picture ended up looking like complete crap. :o

Considering that it's a really great card its well worth the price if you ask me.

If you want to see some videos go here. Also here you can find 7 pages of pictures.
