              In the library (once inside the Ubisoft App) the list is bigger. Pity is that most are trials or demos.

                  I figured I'd download it anyway, since the version I have is for the PS, and I'll never play that version because the controls aren't customisable (whatever pillock thought that left/right strafe on the left stick is the best control layout for a game that requires precision jumping is so far beyond idiot-level that he has to look up to see marketing pros), and they might be for the PC version. And, joy of joys, it requires installation of yet another bloatware "helper" program that comes in any mode you like, as long as it's black. That's four, now.  At least it's not as bad as that godawful travesty of UX that steam forces you to install, if you want any access at all to your paid-up-front property. :sigh: I miss just going to game shops, looking at boxes, and trying them out (without having to install anything on my machines). Finding and buying games was fun, then.  Now, it's just a pure PiTA.

                            you got caught by the spam filter. I don't really understand why, but anyways... next time don't repost, just be a bit patient, it needs a human confirmation.

                              for the little part I have played... The game itself might be played in a VM, it is not that heavy in resources needs. One can see that the game came in 2009, the graphics are good for that moment but look poor nowadays (I would say worse than Tomb Raider), the dynamics look "easy" but controling things correctly needs a while. The story I can't tell, I just played less than an hour. A friend of mine has played it through three times, so I suppose it means something. Albeit I suppose I won't like it more than Assesin's Creed IV (Black Flag). I have installed it in my main OS, but because my PC is quite old (playing it in a VM would probably be a bit challenging for me) and I am anyways going to img-restore it soon, so I don't really care that much because it will disappear with other things I have checked lately.

                                I agree... I still have some classics in CD (Age of Empires, Starcraft, Diablo 2, Warcraft 2, Recoil, Avalon Stories...) and have made images of them. virtually mounting them and play it without having to install anything else. :)

                                    I more after a good story and gameplay than extreme graphics... Tomb Raider has a very poor one IMHO... I installed Assassin's Creed II on Wine and so far it looks good (but a bit more demanding on the hardware)...

                                      The story could get a pass, but the gameplay... yeah, it could be a bit more fun. But for a free game... one can't complain. And I spent a nice time playing it.

                                      M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
