It'll defo be linked to Liberation. They've already billed the Wii-U version as "the ultimate version" of the game. I suppose the 360'll just get shitloads of Avatar gear. Btw, I'm surprised nobody's picked up on the new PoP (2nd) Reboot Beta screen flyin about.

Posted that in the gaming thoughts topic ;-)


According to Eurogamer the 360 version of AC III is the better running version.

I'll guess that OL is gonna like/dislike this trailer. For one, it shows off the Anvil engine and what it's capable of. However it's done in the style of Rockstar's promotional material as of late, with a narrator outright telling you why you should be impressed.

Also:

Looks like the game really does span Connors life judging by the middle aged looking man in the screencap.

New footage = good.
But yes, I hate it when they can't get off of their own goddamn nuts. It's an AI/graphics engine. Get over yourselves.

I hope the console versions don't suffer from framerate drop because of this

Trailers have gone from being a quick interesting representation of the product to the type of thing you'd see attached to a pitch document.

Its why i only watch the actual trailers for R* games now rather than their tech vids because the smugness is just OTT in telling me why i should be impressed.

I found this funny coming from a Ubisoft dev. Hell the AC games are easy.

http://www.computerandvideogames.com/36 ... easy-mode/

While the producer for notoriously difficult RPG Dark Souls is considering an "Easy Mode" in the series' next game, Assassin's Creed 3 lead designer Alex Hutchinson has spoken out against easy games.

Speaking to Edge Hutchinson goes so far as to say he believes easy modes are "ruining" games.
"A lot of games have been ruined by easy modes," he said. "If you have a cover shooter and you switch it to easy and you don't haave to use cover, you kind of broke your game."

He continues: "It's like if I picked up a book and it said 'Do you want the easy version or the complicated version?' [Game designers] can simplify the language, you know; we can make it two syllables."

For those afraid Assassin's Creed 3 will considerably up the difficulty level, rest assured that balance is crucial for the team. "We're not trying to make a brutally difficult game, so we go through all the playtest data and make sure it works."
