@hardeddie Bethesda have buggy piles on launch, sure, but at least they deliver what they promise, and usually more.


Ubisoft is just disappointing on everything.

@andrewryan123 So, they are dumb where the track is complex, but they make up for it where it is straight and simple by cheating.


Lovely programming...

@TeknoBug @hoyholyhoy @spikepigeo I too, am nervous. R6 had 2 of my favorite tactical games growing up.

@TeknoBug @hoyholyhoy @spikepigeo which is why I was laughing about it. The latest Ghost Recon entry was a f2p piece of crap. It's a shell of it's glorious former self. They would have to do something serious to revive that one, but they are focusing on R6 it seems.

@hoyholyhoy @spikepigeo I was saying that there's an intriguing new entry in the franchise...

So other than Assassin's Creed, what does Ubisoft have, now?


Far Cry - doing ok, but nothing special

Rayman - on track, but not a large enough demographic to save them

Splinter Cell - great games, but nowhere near enough market appeal anymore

Rainbow Six - intriguing new entry

The Division - possibly, Ubisoft's last great hope

Ghost Recon - don't make me laugh

HAWX - ok, now I'm actually laughing

Watch Dogs - now I'm crying

Brothers in Arms - Que?

Prince of Persia - where have you gone?

The Crew - ....

Just Dance - Broad appeal and doing great, but let's be honest, not the kind of game we're talking about here.


So once AC becomes so utterly bland and saturated (oh, wait, I thought we were their a while ago) then all Ubi can do to save themselves is rely on a dancing game, a Prince of Persia re-reboot and 2 Tom Clancy franchises, if they don't royally screw those up too.


Their best game this year was South Park: The Stick of Truth, which didn't even start under them. And good luck convincing Matt Stone and Trey Parker to wh0re out for yearly releases on that.


Yikes, Ubi. Not a good year.

THAT is how you make a fuckin trailer! Damn, I'm pumped after watching that.


Unfortunately the game is not nearly as fun as it makes it appear.

Games like Destiny make me want to get into writing...


...because if this is what passes for blockbuster video game writing these days -- holy hell, I might be able to get a job.
