While the marketing deal between Microsoft and Ubisoft for Assassin’s Creed Unity will bring spiffy Xbox One bundles in the west, Japan will get something special. Ubisoft and Microsoft teamed up to launch a slightly weird event named Akiba Stealth, scheduled to happen on November 2nd.

Small video game maps that are packed with things to do are better than huge but empty maps. Here are five small but brilliant maps in games.
GF365: "Since the first Assassin’s Creed game, there have been entries up until now. There are more than a few titles that are far from an ideal stealth game. Let’s discuss why 2014’s Assassin’s Creed Unity is one of the best games in the series."
Glitchy as hell and flat story, nah this aint it. AC2, brotherhood and 4 were amazing games in every respective
After constant glitches Arno being boring nah I am good I skipped Unity. I will always like the Ezio trilogy, Black Flag, Rogue, Odyssey, Syndicate. I use to love the franchise but now it feels stale and boring. But my list of favorite entries into the franchise will vary from other players favorite entries.
It’s funny because, at launch, it was universally panned for being unplayable. It’s a great game that holds up today. I’m glad they fixed it.
The only good things i remember from Unity are pretty graphics and really good descending mechanics (even though it sometimes didn't make much sense, when your character can drop down from like 10 meter height onto a flagpole perfectly).
Game is glitchy to this day, i was playing in it years after the release date (with all the DLCs) and it's still broken. You had to reload missions too often for my taste (characters do not spawn, you fall through the floor, getting stuck in falling/sitting/aiming animation, hidden blade stop working, assassination target running away at the start of the mission). Story was meh, searching for all the treasures wasn't enjoyable at all. Coop was pretty much useless, i've beaten every coop mission in solo. Helix rifts were awful as well.
Not saying i hate this game or anything, but it got too many problems.
Assassin's Creed (i know it's a controversial opinion) and Assassin's Creed 2 are still great to this day.
Rather than wasting both their time and their money, they ought to arrange to do things like this in places that actually care about either product. Sure, there are some Japanese gamers who love both Xbox and Assassin's Creed, but they are in the extreme minority and the money would be far better spent in territories that actually buy the Xbox i.e. North America/United Kingdom.
i don't like 3rd party devs positioning themselves with either sony or microsoft. just release the game in all its glory on both to the best you can do on both. didnt like it with destiny on ps4, dont like it with ea on xb.
might explain the ps4 having the same res as xb1 unlike most other 3rd art games i guess.
