Assassin´s Creed 2 For PS3 To Feature Exclusive Content

Following the exclusive gameplay footage at Sony´s E3 2009 media briefing Patrice Desilets of Ubisoft Montreal announced that certain content of the PSP version, Assassin´s Creed: Bloodlines, will be transferable over to the PS3 version of Assassin´s Creed II. The content includes six new weapons which you can unlock by completing certain objectives in Assassin´s Creed: Bloodlines.

Sneaky way of doing DLC, at least this time there's an actual reason why the DLC can only be accessed on a certain system, a real boundary and not just contracts and cash.

[PeterPanParadox]

Definitely a clever way to raise revenue. I need to buy myself a PSP now. :)

[locos85]

AC for the PSP better be just as good.

[Saigon]

it is a clever way of just earning revenue...it is a clever way to do DLC...only negative is that you have to buy both games...

[Darrius Cole]

You have to be for both games with console based DLC. The original game costs $60 and then they find a way to sell us $20 to $30 of download content. Sometimes they do it with one big block sometimes they nickel and dime us is 5 or 6 $5 blocks, either way it costs us the same.

I they go the PSP way we should get more utility. You get a PSP game and downloadable content.

[Blaze929]

They'll just make this content availible on the xbox 360 by linking your gamertag to those Ubisoft accounts Ubi loves to do so much. No doubt the stuff will be already on the disc anyway.

[Game13a13y]

lol, keep telling yourself that if it helps you to sleep better at night. this content is only available via the PSP as the dev has said it themselves to give people incentives to buy the PSP version. why the heck would they take that selling point away from their own game?

[The Matrix]

Really tired of exclusive features in games for multiplatform. Really freaking tired.

[Gamertags]

The 360 version will as well! That is generally how it works.

[ZuperAmazingCooKie]

Maybe Microsoft should make the 360 PSP compatible, at least that would be a whole lot better than facebook and twitter integration which PS3 had almost 3 years ago.

Where the hell is Zune HD anyway?

[Vicophine]

"Where the hell is Zune HD anyway?"

Answer: Getting it's ass handed to it by the iPod.

[Chuk_Chuk]

i knew there some sort reason why AC2 was demoed at sony conference

[Sonyslave3]

lol just like psp getting it's ass handed to it by DS and DSi.

[TheColbertinator]

Assassins Creed 2 will be a big hit.

[SSCOOLCHEA]

you must be a fkn kid. only fkn little kids and retarded adults would ever buy the ds or dsi .

[bob saget remix]

yep

[OmarJA]

Typical retarded xbot.

[djtek184]

I cant wait for the psp go!

[ThatCanadianGuy]

I was seriously impressed with the demonstration of AC2.
It looks like they improved upon everything that was good, and fixed all the cons.

Day one for me !

[36T]

With all the "day one" buys i've seen from you so far, you`re gonna be a broke ass mf. Imagine the money it would take to buy all the best games coming to both consoles (PS3,X360) and the time to finish them all. IMO a few great games are gonna suffer in the sales department.

[Sarcasm]

Day ones for me:

ModNation Racers
GoWIII
MGS: Rising on PS3
MGS: Peace Walker
FFXIII
The Last Guardian
MAG
Uncharted 2
Splinter Cell Conviction
Forza 3
Modern Warfare 2
BFBC2
Gran Turismo PSP

I'm going to be a broke MF.

[IdleLeeSiuLung]

... and potentially a very lonely guy/gal for a while.

[Psycho_Mantis]

Well since M$ always gets exclusive content (Etc. GTA4) now its our turn. Good news for me! :)

[bob saget remix]

Doesn't get repetitive like the 1st game.

[paradigmfellow]

owned hehehe

[Troll-Killer]

...like the hilarious horse glitch. :D

[devilhunterx]

while the xb2 had the exclusive guard humping wall glitch.

[Fade_Walker]

If it's just weapons I don't really care.

Now if the PSP version gave AC2 more areas then yea I'm al for it, but not for weapons.

[ultimolu]

I just care about the gameplay. The first one was a borefest and I sold it. -_-

[MGOelite]

i hate having to work for my DLC...

[djtek184]

1st day E3, Bots were jumping for joy now they're back in their holes.

[-MD-]

Actually I'm probably far more excited than you to be honest and I didn't even hear from my favorite developer (save the perfect dark XBLA leak)

[-MD-]

So wait when 360 gets DLC it's a big joke but when PS3 gets it that's alright?

You guys are seriously some big old hypocrites you know that?

[DNAgent]

Technically this isn't DLC. You unlock stuff in AC2 by playing the PSP game. Kind of like when you hook up Resistance 2 to the PSP game so you can unlock extra content for the PSP game.

No need to be jealous. Just buy a PSP & PS3.

[-MD-]

I wasn't aware I was jealous? I've made it pretty clear I already own a PS3 and have no intention on buying ANOTHER PSP as I sold my launch PSP 5 months after buying it for an ipod.

Twisted Metal Head On just could not save that thing.

[PeterPanParadox]

Will be kind of unfair if this content will make it to XBL for a few measly gamepoints. So, PS3 owners would need to buy the PSP and the game to get those weapons. Seems illogical to me.
