 Yes dear reader, you read that correctly. Now, for the first time the series has seen, up to four Assassins can team up and embark on a co-operative stabby adventure. So far, very few official details have actually arisen, the only word coming from a nameless source, relayed through Twitter user ‘shinobi602’, an ex-NeoGAF poster. He revealed that there would be two demos, one surely destined for E3, for both singleplayer and another showcasing the new 4 player co-operative mode.

The upcoming Ubisoft game “Watch Dogs” has excited fans since it’s first screening at the 2012 E3 convention. Set in modern-day Chicago, players will experience the story of vigilante hacker “Aiden Pearce” as he is on a mission of taking down the supercomputer “CtOS” and those who chose to use it to primarily benefit themselves.  by Ben Mapp
It’s that time of year again, folks! It comes as no surprise to anyone that Assassin’s Creed will be returning at the end of the year. The series follows the fictionalised history of an ongoing war between two factions (the Assassins and the Templars), and has had its fair share of leaks in the past. Concept art for both Assassin’s Creed III and Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag had been leaked online in the weeks before its official announcement.  by Ben Mapp
Over the last year it has been revealed that game franchises such as Ratchet & Clank, Assassin’s Creed and The Last of Us will be receiving the big screen treatment. With that in mind, we have decided to offer some casting guidance to other big brand developers who may also be considering the transition from game to film. We feel that as lovers on both games and films it is therefore our duty to ensure that future movies based on games should only be done if they are done right.  by Reece Merryweather-Brown
Games are amazing. They blend lots of different elements from loads of different mediums, taking things from film, music, literature and mixing it all together and adding the special ingredient ‘interactivity’ to really make it special. But a lot of the time, the music in a videogame is often forgotten. So let’s have a little look at what I think is some of the best original scores in modern video gaming.  By Stephen Hyland
It all began back in the year 2007, as in this year the first of many games in a franchise would appear in stores everywhere. This first installment was known as “Assassin’s Creed”; a game set in 1191 as well as modern day was a free-roam, third person game in which lets you play as a young man named “Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad”, a member of an old faction the “Assassin Brotherhood”. Your goal was to obtain an ancient artefact capable of controlling minds: the “Apple of Eden”. The fight for this object of mass power becomes evermore desperate as another faction known as the “Knight’s Templar” are also hot on its tail. The game sends you, through a whole campaign with side missions in which you get to practise your awesome Assassin skills and capabilities. Following the success of the first game; with it winning multiple awards at the annual E3 and earning great reviews, a sequel was released with improved graphics, a new story and a new character to follow.

With the recent announcement of the sixth game in Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed franchise- Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, comes a rather polarised set of reactions from the game’s fans. Playing this time around as Edward Kenway, the swashbuckling pirate assassin, we are set to be treated with another helping of the lineage that Assassin’s Creed 3 gave us. Edward, the grandfather of Ratonhnhaké:ton (Connor), and father of the Templar, Haytham, already seems to be a much more fleshed out character than Ratonhnhaké:ton ever was. He’s set to be greedy, ruthless and charming, all in equal measure (everything that you would want a pirate to be), and he’s an assassin, too. |
