assassins creed 2 300x209 Assassins Creed II released   Whodathunk it would be EARLY??I had pre-ordered my son's copy for the Xbox about a week ago from Dell. Their site said a January release but of course I knew it wouldn't actually take that long. Low and behold, tonight the doorbell rang and there was a courier with my copy!! Shh, don't tell him - I'm waiting for report cards to come out before I spring it on him!

So who's played it? I won't get to it for a while so I need your reviews.  C'mon people! Assassin's Creed was a regular fixture in our Xbox and I know that ACII will be too!

Dragon Age: Origins Xbox 360Wow, if this game is anywhere near as good as it looks in the promo material, I expect I'll be sinking a considerable number of hours of my life into playing it. There really hasn't been a top quality epic fantasy game in some time, and this game looks like it could be the one to fill the void.

'Dragon Age: Origins' is your classic good vs mega evil fantasy, complete with all the standard trimmings of ogres, elves, dwarves, mages and dragons. What looks like it will set the game apart though, is the depth of the characters and the complexity of the combat. If you ever wanted to feel as though you were taking part in a vast battle straight out of Lord of the Rings, this might be the game to deliver that experience.

We have plenty more cool trailers and images to come on this game, and you can watch the main trailer from E3 below:
