Today's game is Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag. This is one of my favorite games of all time. I first played through it on PS3 when i was younger and have fond memories of it, especially the story. Though Unity will always have my favorite game play, Black Flags story will always be one of my favorites.

I went ahead and played through the entirety of Sequence 7 today. I even did some of Sequence 8. I got this fun photo of the sunset while capturing a fort shortly after that. It kind of reminds me of Pirates of the Caribbean with that scene where the flip the boat while sailing into the sunset.

After which i went and played checkers against the AI. I ended up in a tie after 40 minutes. I got a screenshot of this guy passed out on the table to commemorate my win.

I keep seeing this game recommended, might have to try it at some point. By the time this was released I had already lost interest in the franchise.

it's definitely one of the best in my opinion. It has good Story and Gameplay and the graphics hold up surprisingly well for it's age. My suggestion would be to pick it up on sale, because most of the Assassin's Creed Games go on sale for like $5-$10. I'd be surprised if this one didn't
