    The ending of Assassin's Creed 2. That game was so brilliant, but the ending was just the icing on the cake. Really opened up the whole series, or at least until they started stretching the bollox out of the story and ruining it.

    It's been so long since I played it, but does 2 end
    with the whole Gods using the Italian assassin to speak to Desmond through his memory? Yeah I thought that was really cool. The game was OK, to be honest, just like the rest of the series, but the ending really was a jaw dropping moment. Although they don't explain how they knew humans would invent the animus... I mean, that's a pretty big plot hole imo.

    Yeah, that's the one.
    The Gods knew more than that humans would invent the Animus, they knew Desmond himself would use it. I just took it that one of their Pieces of Eden (like the staff and the apple) gave them visions of the future. I never found it necessarily to be a plot hole, but agree it could have been better explained.

    I'm amazed that ye've both overlooked
    fistfighting with the pope!

    Ive just realised what was probably one of my biggest OMFG moments.

    I got Red Dead Demption and was loving it, what a game. Kind of like GTA in the Wild West, but cooler.

    Anyway, I had never really played any games online up to that point but thats when I finally learned about it, set up a network in my house, complete with repeaters and the like and took that brave leap.

    Red Dead Multiplayer was amazing. There was a massive learning curve but you could become incredible. The controls were very intuitive.

    What was also really cool was using the headset for the first time, also with that game. I ran into some guy in Free Roam in the middle of no where and just palled about for a bit. Just amazing at the basic level to be my character running around with some kid over in Nottingham.

    THen, later, had another go and this snot nosed kid suggested I join his 'clan'. I did so for the laugh, having to change outfit to a military peasant outfit, change nickname etc. He then started getting really snotty so I shot him. OH ****, he went mental... twas ****ing hilarious.

    I suppose that was my OMFG moment - going online with a headset in RDR.
