Assassin’s Creed III: Connor’s Story
Connor is our assassin in Assassin’s Creed 3. He’s a native American who earned the right to be trained as an assassin.

Drool over the AnvilNext game engine
The AnvilNext Engine is the new gameplay powerhouse that makes Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed III possible. I can safely use the word “drool” without knowing whether you’re a gamer, coder, GM or anything like that because the graphics here are just stunning.
Michael Fassbender joins the Assassin’s Creed movie
Ubisoft have managed to lure Michael Fassbender into the Assassin’s Creed movie. The news is that the Magento actor will also be co-producing the movie – and I wonder if that was part of the lure.

Far Cry 3: I’ll kill your friend
Far Cry 2 surfaced in 2008. Far Cry 3 is expected late in 2012. That’s 4 years later. Set on a tropical island, Far Cry 3 invites you to escape – bothered, of course, by crazed inhabitants. The game has been developed by Ubisoft Montreal in conjunction with the Shanghai team. Players should expect realism […]
