Rumor Control: Assassin's Creed

One of the most anticipated games of 2007. Already a winner of numerous awards, and it's not even out yet. With so much positive hype, it's no mystery that there is rampant speculation about all aspects of it's gameplay and storyline. Also, Ubisoft has fueled the fires in revealing little or no actual information about specific plot details.

has lost alot of hype since becoming multi-console

nanometric6639d ago

Thats becouse almost all multi games are just average. Dev's chance to slack off. Thou this game look incredible.

Anego Montoya FTMFW6639d ago

your right multiplatform causes devs, to slack off.
i think the 360 is majorly hurting the ps3.
but that`s my opinion.

ben hates you6639d ago

but on the game i know gears of war won quiet a few awards before its released its not to uncommon

Anego Montoya FTMFW6639d ago

if people are making something for both consoles.
you can have longer fuller games on the ps3 because of bluray.
so if they make it for both it has to fit on both.
you know.

THAMMER16639d ago

Anego Montoya has no idea what he is talking about. BR space has nothing to do with the length or quality of a game. He is completely brain washed by Sony PR and marketing lies. BR has yet to prove any positive use for video game development.

BluRay's so expansive ...which is why Oblivion on 360 is currently the most massive game on any console, right? And why it weighs in at (I think) under 8GB?

Ludwig6639d ago

"Oh, Sponje Bob was a multiplatform game .. went even in DS .. they all suck "JUST BECAUSE IT WAS MULTIPLATFORM!" .. DUH .. quit making silly generalizations .. a good game will be a good game no matter if it is multiplatform or not .. just look at:

Silent Hill 2 3 and 4
Metal Gears.
Resident Evil's
Oblivion
So on ..

Perhaps the ported clone can be worst some times .. but that doesn't hurt the original game. PS3 fans are just tired of getting screwed on the other end of this deal.

candystop6639d ago

I'm still looking forward to this game and don't think the multi platform route has diminished the excitement for this game at all! It's going to sell well and be worth the wait!

Assassin's Creed: The Argument For a Total Franchise Reboot

Assassin's Creed has been hard done by in the past several years despite its success, and as messy as it could be, it might be time for a reboot.

They already did that in 2017 with origins. I don’t think a reboot is on the cards when Ubisoft is about to go down under lol

I hope the splinter cell remake sees the light of day before the company closes

Inverno103d ago

I doubt they'll be closing, but they are primed to be eaten up by a bigger comp. Also 2017 was nearly a decade ago, it could use another reboot or rather it should just be retired.

RaidenBlack102d ago

Origins was the reboot.
But that also alienated the original AC lovers, abit. Not everybody adores the perma-change of the IP to be vast RPGs.
What I instead propose is, alternate between Valhalla/Shadows type AC RPGs and Mirage/ACII like non-RPG releases.

PrecursorOrb103d ago

It’d be nice if they made parkour feel new

monkey602103d ago

Put the series to bed, It's tired! Revisit your stagnant properties.

Profchaos103d ago

What do you do when you've already milked everything dry

Noskypeno102d ago

What is old might feel new again. A new splinter cell with semi open levels but still having a linear structure (not just one giant open world) that have multiple paths to complete the objective but still have stealth be the main priority would feel fresh, especially with modern graphics and military gadgets .

FinalFantasyFanatic103d ago

I agree, from anecdotal evidence, all franchises eventually stagnate, it might be a good time to start something new.

PRIMORDUS103d ago

"it might be time for a reboot." No it might be time to put this shit to rest for a few yrs. A good 4-5 then come back.

Profchaos103d ago

Total franchise reboot. This ac game is basically the hail Mary to keep Ubisoft alive if this fails the share price will be so low they will be forced to sell and likely absorbed into another org as the Ubisoft name carries almost no weight.

Don't get me wrong they will end up selling after ac regardless but it will be the difference of getting the deal they want vs the deal they don't

Tell me how that's going to be significantly different than colonial America. AC is about showcasing different cultures throughout history. They already did Native Americans in AC3, so then just cowboys, outlaws, ranchers, etc? Kinda feel like there's already a game out there that does that really freaking well. Hmmm, maybe the one in the thumbnail?

Making a "d-ling" sound when you assassinate?

2 or 3 store buildings... well... they'd need some cities.
