I’d like Assassin’s Creed 3 is because it’s a fun way to connect with my teenage son and my husband. Our entire family loves to game and different games bring us together and connect us in different ways. Being the mom of two boys and two girl’s with ages ranging from teenagers to a preschooler, we play a variety video games frequently as a family activity to cheer each other on when competing or trying to beat a game. Depending on certain game ratings we’ll play together and ones for mature audiences we’ll play separately from my little one. My husband and teenage son have played Assassins Creed 1 and 2 and can’t wait to play three. I personally like the bonding that comes along with playing video games, the discussion about what’s going on and the objective of the game. I think my son and hubby feel a sense accomplishment as we play games, giving me play by play, “teaching” me the ropes and if I’m successful, they’ve done their job and for a moment I feel like one of the “guys”! It’s our moment!

To give you some background Assassin’s Creed 3 (via the Assassin’s Creed 3 website) it takes you back to the Revolutionary war, and not necessarily the way we’ve read about it in our history text books. The American colonies, It’s a time of civic unrest and political upheaval in the Americas. Assassin is a Native American that’s fighting to protect his land and his people. Assassin’s Creed 3 has evolved since the first one allowing you to eliminate your enemies with an array of new weapons including guns, bows, tomahawks, and trusty hidden blades. The graphics are amazing with lifelike animations, immersive combat, and advanced physics. For more information about Assassin’s Creed 3, head over to the website.
