Game News and Anticipation Thread

I'm not up to speed with PS4 news.

What are some thoughts?

New Watchdog Academy: Puppies in Training footage at the PS4 announcement.

Plus a new inFamous without Cole or electricity.

PT Games can make short games worth it.

I heard Revengence was short?ikhzo

It isn't long, but it's length isn't an issue. It is well paced and doesn't outstay its welcome and is fun enough to warrant replaying and dabbling with VR missions. It took me 7-8 hours and I don't feel short changed, it is as long as needs to be. 

So looks like Raptr (remember that) has teamed up with Ubisoft to give out some AC3 rewards to "dedicated" members:

Like how Xbox gets shafted compared to the others.

Also like how it forces you to buy the new DLC if you want the rewards.

Weird that Ubisoft is making console gamers buy DLC if they want to be eligible, but all PC gamers have to do is run a desktop app.

But either way, I don't think you'll want either of the PC rewards.

What are they?stephenage

So I don't think you'll find either of those two appealing.

Ten years later, and I still can't get over Snake doing a backflip on a rockek in The Twin Snakes.

F*ck Ubi, here we go again.

UEHUEHAUEAHEHUAHEUAHUEAHEHAUEHA

That's pathetic. 

I notice that the flag is black.

Let's annualise this crap still! I think it's no coincidence that the best game in the series came out 2 years after it's predecessor rather than one. 

In terms of personal insult the list goes:

Revelations >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Brotherhood >> 3 = Assassin's Creed >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 2

I heard there'll be an AC game every year, just like CoD. :|ikhzo

You say this like it is a new thing. There has been an AC every year since 2009. 

The gap between Assassin's Creed games is like a short reunite for the series and a long goodbye to guranteed quality.

Did you click the link?

It's a very nice song.

One of the few things AC3 did perfectly.

I saw a leaked reveal trailer (which has been removed so no link).

From the 100 percent CGI trailer we can discern:

Edward Kenway is blonde, carries four guns at once, and has game. Lots of game. Only Edward Kenway has the ability to charm a woman to his side after killing the man right next here. Not even Ezio could do that. More naval battles and underwater swimming. Varied locations from jungles to Caribbean cities. Fighting Spaniards.

No sign of Connor or Haytham.

Also, Blackbeard is in the game.

Like the ACR and AC3 reveals, a lot of that stuff probably won't be in the final game.

Hopefully the "game" won't get cut.

Time for bullshots!







Better be a kraken in this game.

Keep in mind Ubisoft prob has ten different teams working on AC games atm.

We might get the one that designs missions on this one!

Watch Watch Dogs be renamed AC5.

There will still be Watchdogs Academy: Puppies in Training as a substitute.

Like Watchdogs but everyone is a puppy

Puppies wearing overcoats.

Now that's the s*it.

You know what LA Noire got wrong? It didn't have overcoats. 

Or Russell Crowe and Guy Pearce beating each other up before teaming up and becoming super best friends.

Also, no Kevin Spacey getting shot.
