Ubisoft has released a making-of video for Assassin's Creed Encyclopedia, which provides information about the intentions and motives of the makers. The Encyclopedia provides detailed information on Assassin's Creed universe, makes connections between characters and story and answered questions. The foreword was written by Cliff Bleszinski(Game Director of Gears of War 3) surprisingly.
2K Games is looking for anyone with a talent of showing off their menacing kills in the recent release Bioshock 2. Winners can win $5,000 and a Big Daddy Suit!
LAG - "The video game industry is flooded by long running sequels. It takes only one look at the Wii’s library to realize great intellectual properties are a rare sight to see. That is why this week’s top ten focuses on those series that only just began this generation. It doesn’t have to be entirely original, but it cannot be an extension of a series from previous generations. That basically means Mario Galaxy and Modern Warfare does not count as “new”. The series can be on Wii, PS3, Xbox 360, and PC, but had to have begun no earlier than 2005. This is a top ten based on series, that means at least two games. Remember, quality is always better than quantity, so just because a series has more games does not make it a better new series."
that's a pretty good list. i think they definitely got the top 2 right, it just comes down to preference for which is #1. i do think Bioshock should be on there, though.
You are right that it deserves a mention, I added it to honourable mentions. While I loved the first game, as a series it hasn't hit a home run for me yet.
He should've just labeled it "From Software's 'Souls' series" rather than "Demon's Souls series". You can't call Dark Souls a sequel when it introduces a different universe (although similar).
Thank you for taking your taking your time to edit that. Good work on the list, if I may add.
Demons Souls is a PS3 exclusive, why is it listed on Xbox 360 as well?
anyway my top new franchises are:
- Assassin's Creed
- Uncharted
I had it listed as Demon's Souls(series), and Dark Souls is on 360. It's in italics meaning the entire series isn't on the system.
Welcome to the 43rd episode of the Game Fanatics G-spot. This episode is hosted by FanaticalG, founder of the Game Fanatics. We talk about the biggest news in gaming from God of War 4 being “leaked” and the Alan Wake “2” teaser trailer impressions. We also round the podcast off by talking about our favorite games of 2011, and our biggest disappointments. This episode includes Breezy, David, and our two newest Fanatics DaJuan and Gabie.
Would of been better if they released a Encyclopedia when the main trilogy was over, then another one once the franchise was finished.
Were only going to get infomation from the first AC to AC Revealtions...plus what's been going on between each game.
