I'm loving it so far. Much better than the first one IMHO and I loved the first one despite the repetition. Although I actually find I am missing the save the citizen missions. I enjoyed those a lot in the first one. Nothing like a good excuse to get into a fight and kill people. Though I am still having fun stabbing and ripping gaurds off the rooftops and throwing them down to a watery grave (just got to Venice)

Actually I would believe that. Pac Man kind of started it all in the arcade world. (I am an Arcade manager) Mario on the other hand kind of started it all on the home console front.

I doubt they would require you to shave your head. If they don't tell you to tie your hair back, at least trim it enough so you can do so. Don't go into an interview with your hair all over the place either. Keep it neat and presentable.

What he said. In a retail environement you wouldn't need to have your hair up. We require it in the restaurant industry but that is due to health codes. Don't think anyone would complain about hair being on a game box in a retail store but find a hair in your food and the stuff hits the fan, even though 9 times out of 10 its the customers own hair that they find.

Thanks a lot for the information, it was really helpful. I've had two steady jobs before, I just put them aside because of school. My last job I've had for four years working as a baker in a kitchen, the only problem is that I can't use that as work experience. It just doesn't really apply to retail and selling games, you know? They're great as references though, because I always show up on time, never call sick, etc. I hope this separates me from the typical teen who just wants to join a game store like its a candy factory.

Actually thats not true. One of the best things you can do is market yourt skill sets. As a baker there are skills that transfer over to retail. Such as excellent organizational skills, good time management, ability to work on your own unsupervised, etc. You just need to figure out which skills you learned there that would transfer over to a retail environment and market those skills on your resume. This is speaking as a manager who interviews people regularly. Also, as stated above, look proffessional whenever you go in. be it the first time you ask for the application to the actual interview itself. When you go in too, make sure your cell phone is off and out of site, thats a turn off right away. Don't smell like you just smoked, etc. Make good eye contact as well

It's tricky, because you have to think of a time AND place where the Templars might be present.angusclone2
Thats one of the cool things about the lore though. They supposedly have always existed since the Crusades. I gotta say though, even though I'm nopt even halfway thru 2 yet it really is shaping up to be Desmond taking the lead in his own time for the third. Which kind of stinks to be honest. I really am not looking forward to gun play entering this series. I'm not a fan of shooters and I am massively enjoying just using bladed weapons currently. A crossbow might be kind of cool though

Yeah It really depends on the type of games they are. Right now I am totally sucked in to Assassins Creed 2 even though i was playing NSMBWii first.

I'm still in the process of downloading the Demo. Saw a commercial for it a few nights ago and It looked like my kind of game and something I would enjoy so I hopped on PSN and found the Demo. I hope its good. Gonna need something to follow up the awesomeness of Assassins Creed 2 that I am currently enjoying

[QUOTE="92GreenYJ"][QUOTE="Tokugawa77"]

I hate when i hear about parents being so overprotective. Of course you have to set a line somewhere (i once played world at war with a seven year old...), but if you dont allow your children to participate in cirtan activities at a certan age, then that will actually hinder their success in life. Think of all the social critisizm this guy is expiriencing becuase of his parents. Not to mention it will cuase increased anger towards his parents, and more rebelious behavior. a14year old is a teenager, so why should they be treated like a child?so those who keep telling him to suck it up, just stop and suck on this! (please dont ban me for saying that)

and how old are you? while 14 may technically be a teenager, that does not mean that he is mature at this age. If 14 was considered mature, don't you think he would be allowed to do other things by society? Like drive a car, vote, buy ciggarettes or alcohol, join the military, etc? And yet we do not. Why is that? because 14 years old is not considered mature at all. And with good reason.

Ok lets remember that we are talking about playing avideo game not drinking, doing drugs, or joining the military. sheltering mom's little baby from modern society is just as damaging as exposing them too early.

Playing a video game centered around blowing peoples heads off. Its rated M for a reason. Granted I agree that sheltering a kid too much is also a bad thing, but knowing when and where to draw the line is a good thing. In my view the kids dad is just being a good parent. Something that is becoming FAR to rare in this day and age

Actually I think it was the rise of Arcade gaming back in the 80s that had the most profound effect on gaming. If it wasn't for that, The home console market never would have exploded like it did
