More Assassin's Creed 360 rumors

From Xboxic.com : "Man these things are getting way too common, every week we hear another source claiming that Assassin's Creed is coming to Xbox 360. This time it's a French site called Xbox Gamer (Babelfish ftw) which states that a Ubisoft employee confirmed the Xbox 360 version of AC on the annual Interactive and Digital Entertainment Expo in Cannes. The strange thing about these rumors is that Ubisoft doesn't deny them although the official AC ">website only has a PS3 logo and the words 'Xbox 360' seem to be absent in all of the recent announcements.

It's highly likely that this is a the PS3 version of the deal Ubisoft had on the original Xbox with Splinter Cell which means that we'll probably see a 360 version a couple of months after the PS3 version hits, possibly with some extra content."

go to http://assassinscreed.uk.ub... there is no xbox or microsoft logo on the bottom, only a ps3 logo. plus, y would they announce it on a sh!tty xbox site? and not put it on the OFFICIAL site??

Bill Gates I Am6597d ago

Did you get lost on the way to the bathroom again? PS3 is the OTHER way!

TheMART6597d ago

For one or the other reason:

1. Sony is paying big bucks for a timed exclusive of some months. Which means Ubisoft may not speak about other versions. But after 4 or 6 months after PSZero's launch 360 will have it probably with extra downloadable content.

2. MS is telling Ubisoft to say nothing, so they can give Sony an extra blow announcing this game on X06 !!!

Imagine that. A few months for launch, it would kick the PSZero's ars for sure

MissAubrey6597d ago

you sony fanboys are so damn annoying!

ImTheNumber126597d ago

Aren't these the guys that made prince of persia? Why would they make it exclusive for PS3. Have they ever made an exclusive game. Oh and I really wonder about extra content though because both PS3 and 360 both will be selling content online.

Bishop6597d ago

Everyone says they heard from this person and that person but until I hear from Ubisoft themselves I won't believe it. Of course I have a 360 and I have reserved a PS3 and a Wii so it really wouldn't make much difference either way.

OutLaw6597d ago

Last I remember unless you are in europe and by according to your info your not I can't see how you reserved the systems and don't say Gamestop or EB because they're not taking orders yet.

BLACKSTYX6597d ago

they already announced this game for 360 back in X05. Only diff is that it was called project assassin back then. But you want to know something funny? Go to the main site the guy listed above, go to the forums, then go to everything we know so far. Its a sticky so you can't miss it. Scroll down in the first post and look at the contorls.
"- At this stage, the game uses five and the left control stick. The R trigger accelerates your movement, X is jump, Y is view mode, A is attack, and B is not known."

yup last time I checked ps3 was still using shapes.

TheMART6597d ago

Haha that's real funny. Using the letters on the 360 buttons instead of the PSZero shapes on their buttons. That could backup the theory that it was designed on a 360 devkit and ran on a 360 @ E3 2006

This is like the worst kept secret since Area 51.

Everybody knows its there, but no one will acknowledge it.

I agree. 9 was awesome

Shaolin Monks next please

vTuro243h ago

Shaolin Monks is a forgotten gem. I would love to see a new one, or a remake of the old.

vTuro243h ago

That game was actually goated. It was the first time ever that I actually tried to get good at a fighting game. Unfortunately the online connection was so dogshit it made it hard to enjoy and eventually I gave up. Haven't really played much fighting games since.

The Dishwasher
Vigilante 8

Two non-BC and no-PC-version Arcade titles I downloaded recently. Dishwasher's sequel is on Steam at least.

I've also downloaded Ninety-Nine Nights II (shame the first wasn't available). I still want to download Burnout 3: Takedown before the weekend's up, though that is still the full $9.99 non-discounted price

franwex4h ago

Burnout 3 not available in modern times is a crime to humanity.

I know it’s probably due to the music licensing-though they can simply add other music as Burnout 3’s biggest flaw to me personally-is the music!!!

Xbox gamers warned they've 72 hours before a ton of classic games are gone forever

The Xbox 360 Marketplace is officially shutting down in three days, which means dozens of exclusive, digital-only 360 games will no longer be available to purchase anywhere else once it does.

The Xbox 360 will be almost 20 years old next year, and to celebrate this milestone Microsoft have decided to obliterate all of its online functionality.

Phil Spencer: "Game preservation is critical to us at Team Xbox."

darthv729h ago(Edited 9h ago)

Technically, the games ARE preserved... they are just removing the ability to purchase new games through the 360. They have to keep a full backup of every title (even delisted ones) because they will have to offer the ability to redownload purchased content to users.

I had deleted some games a few years back that had become delisted. I was able to get them back by going through my download history. The games in question were TMNT (classic and re-shelled), afterburner climax and outrun online. Im glad I was able to get those back as they are some of the best on the service.

Lightning777h ago

Well The Ultimate Alliance games have been delisted. I dunno how many old Activision games have been Delisted but MS needs to remake or remaster old Activision games and release them on Xbox and PS. I. Hope that's what they're doing right now.

They can't reserve everything but they 100% can reserve what they got or own.

Vits9h ago

Fortunately, the X360 was jailbroken a long time ago, so a good part of its library is available for download from 'alternative' sources. Still, it's a bummer to see the store going away.

Also they can keep the store up for life if they wanted.

hiawa236h ago(Edited 6h ago)

Series X for the back compat titles, and OG Xbox and X360 for those not on BC. I pretty much bought all of the digital games I want for the 360 so I am good.

anast4h ago

They are holding games hostage so people spend more money. This is some sleazy stuff.

Reaper22_3h ago

No, not telling you would be sleazy. I have a few more games to buy then I'm good. 360 was and still is a great console. Xbox is the best place to play!

anast3h ago

I'm not sure we are on the same page.
