Rumor: Secret Ubisoft IP Uncovered, Osiris, From the Makers of Assassin's Creed

It looks like Ubisoft Montreal’s next IP is codenamed “Osiris”, judging from this rough cut-demo video commissioned last year.

TryMe4098d ago

hyped. not next consoles considering it's already been in development for a bit, and should probably be released in 2014.

showtimefolks4098d ago

i think for next 2 years all next gen games will also get a release on ps3,xbox360. both systems are still selling well and have huge install bases so it makes sense to port those next gen titles and make easy money

also the graphics difference between a ps4 title to a ps3 port won't be as big as ps2-ps3

Red_Orange_Juice4098d ago (Edited 4098d ago )

There will be more next gen exclusive games than you think. Most multigen games will be sports games.

Nimblest-Assassin4098d ago

Im kinda hoping this game is called

HERO SLOWMOTION: CIVIL UNREST

josephayal4097d ago

It will most likely just be able to run 4k graphics

classic2004098d ago (Edited 4098d ago )

Why is the main character in the picture black??

Also in the video at the end their were some black peoples picture their. For crying out loud the ancient egyptians were never black.

Once again ubisoft as freaking manage to piss off my race!

pr0t0typeknuckles4098d ago

ever heard of dark skinned egyprians,and technically egypt is apart of africa.

torchic4098d ago

dumbest comment you'll read on n4g today.

grassyknoll4098d ago

You need to play less games & read a whole lot more.

iamnsuperman4097d ago (Edited 4097d ago )

Just look at it logically. Okay Egyptians tend not to be fully black and more middle eastern looking (@pr0t0typeknuckles you are thinking of modern day Egypt which is to do with what I am about to mention and immigration over thousands of years). But thinking of the time period wars happened and people stolen other people for slavery. Since Africa is a massive landmass this type of thing wasn't uncommon. You would start getting black people in the population. Also people would flock to big cities for a chance at fortune. He may not be Egyptian

Lord_Sloth4097d ago

Why do you find dark skinned fellas in your country so offensive? Fun fact: There were black people in Egypt and there are dark skinned Egyptians.

urwifeminder4097d ago (Edited 4097d ago )

Never heard of Nubians then hey look it up, i cant stand ass creed but i cant pass up any egypt action POWERSLAVE style. I have the eye of horus tatt love the art great to see an period game with no dragons.

aliengmr4097d ago

Read a history book sometime. It seriously shouldn't be possible for one to be so stupid.

Do humanity a favor, don't procreate, please. I beg you, do not add more stupid to the gene-pool.

Google Nubian, ass.

solidt124097d ago

How hard could it be to just do a google search before you posted this dumb comment.

Non_sequitur4097d ago

The main character should be black if he is Osiris. Osiris was sometimes referred to as the black god. You are correct about the native north Africans being much lighter than Africans south of the sahara, but it wouldn't be unusual for darker Africans to have immigrated to Egypt.

pixelsword4097d ago (Edited 4097d ago )

@ Classic:

Your statement is just about as stupid as if some guy whining about why aren't Native Americans in a game Blonde-Haired and Blue-eyed: You're basing your false assumption of history upon the current population.

Egyptians were always dark skinned; lighter skinned people immigrated to Egypt throughout the centuries, not the other way around. Your people aren't even as dark as the Egyptians in the ancient drawings, and they had rainforests to help shield them from the sun: you got nothing now but sand and sun, and your people aren't even as dark as the drawings...!

What you need to do is look up Ivan Van Sertima and Alexander Von Wuthenau, after that, attempt to digest just about everything they have on video, PDF, and book because you're looking every bit the uneducated person that I'm afraid you really are.

Your people are the actual invaders, The walls, statues, and all ancient history books make reference to Kemet as being black in reference of the origin of the people; the name Kemet means the black lands, The Bible verifies Egyptian lineage to Kem (Mizraim via Kem/Ham), and Roman, Greek, Arab, and other scholars wrote that Egyptians were Black-skinned.

Heck, the reason the Greeks called Kemet Egypt because Egypt means "The place of the soul" (Hi-Gi-Ptos) because back then some peoples in the areas surrounding Egypt thought the soul was black.

Just like North African used to be primarily Black-skinned Christians until Islamic raiders slaughtered the people and took over the cities: if you don't know what I'm talking about, look up the history of the city of Fez, and why the hat called the "Fez" is red.

That's the sad part of History: it's written by not only the victor, but the bigot and the ignoramus.

jjank114097d ago

Dang, good job Classic200 for being completely ignorant. Ancient Egypt, that of the ruling dynastic part, was pretty much a crossroads of the world back then, so therefore had many various skin colors (bablylonians, libyans, nubians, asiatics....etc). There is a debate about this very thing with a whole gamut of theories. Many other societies like the Nubians and Western African empires were black. Whereas the Eastern and Nile Valley africans were more of a brownish skin color.

BlackWolf4097d ago (Edited 4097d ago )

@Classic200
Just kill yourself, please... At least investigate some more before posting this... comment.

@pixelsword

Interesting, always wanted to play a game like Assassin's Creed in Egypt.

Snookies124098d ago

Soooo... Now we're getting trailers of mo-cap production going on? Lol! Regardless, this sounds pretty interesting and I shall keep an eye on it.

UnholyLight4097d ago

I thought the mo cap was cool...

pr0t0typeknuckles4098d ago

at least its not prince of persia, but instead its a new ip, i may check it out egypt is a very intersting setting for videogames, and hasnt used to death like WW2, modern war, or ancient greece.

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

VersusDMC5h ago

Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.

Still a good game though.

Friendlygamer6h ago

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

monkey6025h ago(Edited 5h ago)

2.
Dmc.
4.
5.
1.
3.

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best

Yui_Suzumiya3h ago

1 and DmC. The rest are unimportant.

DarXyde3h ago

Order changes depending on your focus. I tend to focus on gameplay/fun factor, so...

5, 3, 1, 4, 2.

I really didn't like 4 but commend Dante's weapon diversity. The retreading of old ground was pretty unacceptable to me.

But even then... Still more enjoyable than 2 for me
