the new AC does look great, but I'm always apprehensive about jumping into a series without playing earlier ones. I mean, I'll play Bioshock Infinite before any AC game, but I still haven't played Bioshock 1 & 2.

I meant I'm playing the new Zelda...which is what you asked about (and yes, I am also playing AC4). I know you love LttP as much as me, and this game is an amazing love letter to those of us who hold that game in high regard.

Cool. I'll try to finish it up and spoll everything for you before then.

oh wait, Zelda games can't really be spoiled :lol:

I did end up getting AC4 last night. Figured I wouldn't see it for that price for quite a while and Zelda still cost more than it. Why not? I've never really jumped into an AC game. Played a bit of 1 with a friend every once in a while when I would visit.

I played through 1, some of 2, and now half a dozen hours or so of AC4. Thus far, 4 is easily my favorite and doesn't really require any previous knowledge of the other games in order to have a lot of fun.

I finished it this Sunday and it might be one of my favorite Zelda games now. I loved it and I pretty much spent the entire game with a goofy grin on my face and the 3D turned on (which I pretty much don't do for 3DS games.)

I thought the music was really strong in this entry and it paired pretty nicely with Ocarina, which I beat back to back with this Zelda. (Man I really need to update my games beaten thread.)
Let strength be granted, so the world might be mended...so the world might be mended.

I tried playing AC1 but it was too boring. AC2 seems like a lot more fun so far, and I've heard almost only good things about AC4.

I heard that you can jump in AC 4 without knowledge of any of the previous games since now theres a new main character i think.

AC 4 looks really cool... but only because they are pirates and pirates are always cool.
