[QUOTE="freedomfreak"][QUOTE="TheEroica"][QUOTE="freedomfreak"] I hear that. actually, and not to go off topic, but I recently finished the captain kidd treasure hunt and I think it was the most satisfying part of the game thus far... I was missing the environmental puzzle-esque missions from previous AC's a la, romulus temples etc. I really enjoyed everything off the coast in AC3. Naval battles were insanely fun as well as the treasure hunt. Yup. It was a bit of clue hunting and platforming. The naval missions are insanely well-made. Being able to replay them makes it even better. Agreed... I cant play through the games and focus on the 100% sync or ill end up hating the game, but being able to play them again makes it more fun to go back and pick away at it. I love the leaderboard integration for all of our stats too...
There might be better snow levels, but these are my most memorable:
- BR Icefields from Unreal Tournament 2003 / 2004 (dem bombing run matches with friends, DAT chilling - no pun - music) - Noveria from Mass Effect 1 (dem memories) - Siberian Outpost from Soldier of Fortune 1 (dat nostalgia) - General Leang's map from general's challenge mod from C & C Generals Zero Our (dem good memories, dat supposedly immense Leang's army and base) - Draconis 4 (Ordos homeworld) from Emperor Battle for Dune (Sci-fi + snow + some crazy electronic music? Absolutely!)
O.K. those are some snow (snow-related levels) that evoke some really heart-warming memories for me. Might have forgotten some others (will edit if I remeber something else).
What it comes down to a lot of the time is how interactive the snow is to me. In AC III it was fine ploughing through thick deep snow but not seeing footprints in the shallow snow really bugged me. Something like Skyrim I modded in footprints and it added a lot of immersion but then again it didn't have that deep snow stuff. Uncharted 2 nailed both I think but it didn't have that snowy immersive feel to it so overall Skyrim wins for me. I just loved the mountains and watching snow storms kick up, where snow was part of the whole world and not just a certain level type of thing.
99% of the time, i really dislike snow levels. they're all white and bland and repetitive. the snow levels i do like are the ones that have very little snow, just enough to paint the landscape a bit and give it that cold feeling. or the ones that are very detailed and full of interesting, non-snow stuff. i'd say guild wars 2 did a nice job with it.
Phendrana Drifts (Metroid Prime) Ice Cap Zone (Sonic 3) Valak Mountain (Xenoblade) Winter time in ACIII Snow Peak Ruins (Twilight Princess) Cant think of anything else at the moment.
What was the Metroid Prime one called? That one. All of Skyrim. All of Assassin's Creed 3. Sinnoh. Twilight Princess had a really good one, I remember. That one as well.

Absolutely this.
I thought Twilight Princess had a terrific snow level as well. Snowpeak was great.
[QUOTE="freedomfreak"]Journey. Scary part. I was scrolling this thread wondering if anybody besides me was going to say Journey. Yeah Journey gets my vote as well.
