Assassin's Creed 2 Talk [Nov 27, 2008, 1:08 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Joystiq confirms plans for an Assassin's Creed sequel, relating
comments about the project during Ubisoft's
first-half fiscal 2008-09 conference call. A sequel to the successful
stealth/action game was probably a given, but the confirmation indicates they
are shooting for a release during Ubisoft's fiscal 2010, which would make for a
holiday 2009 release using those old-fashioned non-fiscal calendars the rest of
us are saddled with.
GiantBomb has their own light to shed on this news (thanks
Destructoid), as during
the taping of an episode of
Gametrailers' Bonus Round they picked up word from tapped-in industry
analyst Michael Pachter that the middle ages setting of the first Assassin's
Creed will shift several hundred years forward into the 18th century, perhaps to
be set during the French Revolution. This news of a time shift is not confirmed,
and other details like target platforms are not available at this time.
I really don't understand this whole "holding down the button = it sucks" mentality over this game. Okay, so it's less effort than tapping the button multiple times. How is tapping the button multiple times more "deep?"
Then again, the Wii is just waving a TV remote back and forth in place of tapping a button, but an inordinate amount of people seem to equate this with virtual reality and deepness, so who am I to talk...
