Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood


Recommended Posts

I do not think AC:B is designed to be AC3, which is why it is re-using Ezio instead of putting you in the shoes of another assassin. So will it be as good (storywise) as AC2? I doubt it, but its not suppose to be. I think AC:B will be to AC:2 as Crysis Warhead was to Crysis. Sort of a standalone expansion in both features and story, expanding farther on the original story but not so much that it will be a full-fledged sequal to it.

*facepalm

I'm sorry. Didn't think that one through. I assumed that it was about AC3. But your explanation makes much more sense. :)

Well, in that case: bring it on! :D

I have Splinter Cell Conviction on the PC, and too be totally honest, the DRM didnt annoy me too much.

I have SCC and AC2 on PC and TBH, the DRM totally sucks. I feel quite jipped, but I wanted the games, so I deal with it.

Sure I can bypass that, but why should I have to? Give me back the old DRM - or better yet, none.

Doesn't make it right, and Ubi will get my money when AC3 comes out. Sigh.

me either. it's gonna be awesome. (Y) So the Producers weren't lying about Ezio coming back. I just wished that they each series would be a different Assassin, you know ... a Assassin in each age. I hope the expand more on the NWO. but oh well. I take what I can get.

yeah I mean more Assassins is good, but of course if its Venice again then fuuuuuuu it needs to be somewhere like France.

AC in Egypt?

"Publisher posts image showing a new take on its open-world action franchise tied to efforts to expand its brands beyond games.

The premise of Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed series of games--that a modern-day man using an "animus" machine can relive his ancestors' experiences--allows the publisher the freedom to explore any number of historical eras with its stories. The franchise has already tackled the Holy Land during the Crusades and Renaissance Italy, but now it is heading--in some form--to Egypt.

The publisher has posted a picture on its Ubisoft Workshop site showing what appears to be an assassin from its famed franchise standing in front of two pyramids. The image contains several nods to the series, including an emblem bearing the initials "AC" on it and a protagonist dressed up in an Egyptian variant of the standard assassin's garb, including a white head covering and a concealed--and blood-soaked--knife protruding from the character's right sleeve. "

If it includes their wonderful new DRM, I'll pass. Same goes for any Ubisoft game that has it, sadly that includes the new Prince of Persia game. Still haven't played AC2 because of it.

+1 and its on sale @ EB Games in NZ for 50.00 and i will not touch it' too bad i loved the first one!!!

Xbox 360 copy pre-ordered from Play.com. With any luck, we wont have to put up with the DRM cak.

I would have absolutely no problem with that. The first Assassin's Creed game was essentially that once you'd gotten the counter attack, anyway.

that's true, but it's more of a 6 on 1 scenario. This time.. it's more even.

    • BATorrent 3.0.3 is out.
    • The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with ad blockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Samsung Browser'. It has very little bloat and is a nice-looking web browser with an inbuilt 'Ad blocker'. I also really like the web browser called 'Floorp' that is based on Firefox. This browser can also install Chrome extensions. I have a system wide Ad blocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the web browser, but over the whole system. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt ad blocker because of that.
