[parallax86]

i just saw a trailer for this game (i dont know where, google it) and it looks feking awesome - like a cross between oblivion, hitman and splinter cell. i couldnt find any details about whether its coming to the pc or not though. anybody with any info?

Looks awesome, although i wouldnt quite say Oblivion. It's, as far as i know, more a mix between Thief [slow+stealthy] and Prince of Persia [lots of action, platform style]. Same people who made PoP is doing this, so i actually expect it to lean towards the last Prince of Persia [III] where you had the slow motion backstabbing thing [which was very cool mind you] ...

Oh and just like Prince of Persia, i believe it's coming out on PS3+Xbox360 and will then be ported to PC . [which means it will probably take 6 months to port and then suffer from various control issues on PC] . This is something i would get on a console...

Here's a quick QnA

GameSpot: Why did you decide to bring Assassin's Creed to the Xbox 360?


Ubisoft has finally ended months of speculation with the announcement that Assassin's Creed will in fact hit the Xbox 360.

Jade Raymond: Our ambitions with Assassin's Creed are high: We're aiming to deliver a completely new gameplay experience on a brand-new engine. With artificial intelligence, physics, animation, and graphics ambitions like ours, we weren't sure how many consoles we could support. But we always wanted to share our next-gen vision with as many gamers as possible. We have just recently been able to prove to ourselves that we will be able to deliver on both systems without sacrificing the quality or innovation of our original concept.

yeah it does look great initially it was supposed to be ps3 exclusive, but now its coming to xbox 360 also.. not sure about pc, but if its coming to xbox it will probably be on pc

It was announced for the pc before they announced it for the xbox360, and the prince of persia games work very nicely on the pc, even the controls work pretty well with keyboard/mouse so i hope this game will be made just as well as the PoP games.

AC looks fabulous, it's one of the reasons I went for the 360 over the Wii
