•takes place during 1765-1780 in the period between the end of the french and indian war
•one of the bullet points is that it's "true AC gameplay"
•will not connect to desmond
•will have "multiplayer specifically tailored to the vita experience"
•"the game has been released as a propaganda tool by Abstergo,who want players to experience a gray area of the Assassin/Templar conflict as an assassin rather than a templar"
•Aveline's mentor is an escaped slave named Agate,leader of the assassins in New Orleans

•Wildlife like alligators "wait on the banks of the swamp or hide beneath murky waters"

Her costume looks more inline with the time then the console game's version

Female assassin, cool.

[AC!D]

Nice. I guess im getting two AC games this year. Im glad theres no Desmond in this one.

either these reveals are a HUGE mistake on Sony's part, or they've got some incredible news to share with us at E3. I've already said that i prefer a month of excitement to 4 days of excitement at E3, but it's almost as if Sony want us to know EVERYTHING before E3 (and this time they're not leaks)

What? These are from Game Informer's E3 issue which really shouldn't be in peoples hands till next week, Gears of War, Unreal engine 4 have also been leaked via this early release. I'm sure Sony has a few more up there sleeves like CoD and Bioshock for Vita.

And this is a title that is likely in a sizzle reel and not given real time. People still will want to know how it looks and how it plays on the Vita.

Power of the Vita

[masteratt]

Another freakin' port.

*hides from AC!D*

[AC!D]

You guys have zero patience. Your games are coming. I guarantee two things....You will regret selling your Vita masteratt and Omni will buy one very soon.

[masteratt]

I thought that until they had an amazing showing of zero games at E3. Gravity Rush out in 11 days...I'll buy and play that to death. What happens after that is up to Sony.

[AC!D]

Really no games?

I guess the 20+ million seller Call of Duty and 10 million seller Assassins creed series are nothing for you but i bet for a lot of ppl in the west those were the two of three key franchises they were waiting for. A brand new Ghost recon and a new IP Soul sacrifice from a Capcom legend Inafunei what more do you want?

What about Sound Shapes and Dokuro the two games you were like OMG over...Dokuro and Sound Shapes? And another new game which KRA posted yesterday Vikings? The Vita has like 50 games in three months and your still complaining??? Seriously its only been out three months and you dont even know whats going to be announced at Gamescon and TGS. There are about 30 AAA games you havent played sitting right there on the PSP store but what are you doing instead complaining why? Im busy enjoying corpse party as we speak and will be picking up the highly acclaimed Trails in the sky in a few weeks when i have time. Then they go and announce PS1 classic support and you still complain.

Sorry buddy but this is as impulsive and as childish as your OMG im going to sell my PS3 rant a year ago. Whatever though. Not my problem but at least keep the whining to a minimum. It doesnt have to be every single post. You can skip one once in a while and say something nice

[masteratt]

I said no games at E3 dude. Saying "hey we have this game coming" with no footage or a release frame is meaningless to me. That's basically "oh plz look we have big franchise coming we swear!!! just buy one plzzzzzzzzzz!!". And Ac, eh. (ps3 or vita)


Sort that list by Europe release date. After one or two good-ok ones, it all turns into a grey "TBA".

I know I was excited about VITA. I too am asking myself "why the f was I?". Seems games that have threads here and that I like just disappear. Like Gravity Rush is out in 11 days, I thought it was out last week. Sony can't communicate. It's not like I am not paying attention, I am here pretty much all day

50 games wtf are you playing?!?! As I said many times we had this discussion, don't just throw meaningless numbers at me. 360 has 500+ games or whatever, who cares, tell me how many of them are worth playing.

If this early whining is common in Sony console launches, what does that tell you.... Why the f would I invest in something and you know how pumped I was, only to diss it. There is obviously a reason. And that is I moved back home a couple of weeks ago and didn't even take the VITA out the box until to try Gravity Rush demo. Which was thankfully amazing.


Anyway, I am literally going to go and check this 'corpse party' out now, see what it is.


BACK TO AC3!!

[AC!D]

Sell it i dare you. I want to laugh in your face in 6 months

Yes there are like close to 50 games. But i forgot we dont count PSN and PS3 games so originals wise its more like 10. Logic fail *sigh*

This is just the list of games im buying...MGS collection, Gravity Rush, Sly ( Because i prefer platformers on a portable go figure. I hope the new Ratchet also gets a portable version ), FFX, Persona 4, Zone of Enders collection, Ruin and Soul sacrifice. When FF Type O finaly gets localized ill be getting that also because i hear its pretty good. Im pretty sure ill be adding more to this list after Gamescon and TGS. Why maybe cause im old and have patience like i did with PS3. I could have pointed a finger and laughed in the MS thread yesterday because i know i predicted what MS would do to the industry if they got close to monopolizing i.e Having enough clout to force third parties to do what they want. I dont point and laugh like they used to though because i had patience and now im reaping the rewards with GOW, Beyond, Sly, Ratchet, Dust the Last of US and many more to come im sure.

[OmniStalgic]

yeah, I'm still very interesting in Vita. Just a little disappointing all the new reveals were before E3 lol...Sly and Battle Royale day and date with Vita are cool, but I'll likely play those on PS3. What is cool is X-platform play with that new Vikings game and Sound Shapes!

Still, I wanted that 3rd party support in full gear before I picked up my Vita, and Jack mentioned specifically there's 60 Vita games coming, so hopefully there will simply be debut trailers popping up on the blog just like before E3 every month or so, and a nice few surprises at TGS.

When's Dragon's Crown supposed to come out?
Edit: NVM- June 30 NEXT YEAR.

[drakkar]

[D3adcell]

Not even going to give us a review of the game since it's not out until tuesday?

[drakkar]

I would have chimed in with comments, but it going to be a gift, so it would look pretty bad if uncle presented an opened box and used game!

[Gribble-Grunger]

OK, This is getting ridiculous. The reviews of this game are not reflecting how good it is. Over at Neogaf, most people are perplexed at the average score. They think it's great. One of the repeated criticisms is that it looks so close to the console version that it should have been on the console instead, while the other repeated criticism is that it falls short of the console version but the reviewer think it shouldn't have. One site who gave it 7/10 had this to say:

' I couldn’t help but think that with a little more work, budget and horsepower, Liberation could have ended up as a game for the PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360, where it would have looked even better.'

This is totally bonkers. The Vita can't win

[AC!D]

I could have told you to ignore reviews for big budget portable games when Goldben Abyss came out. Incidentally Golden Abyss won portable game of the year at the golden joystick. If you rate this game on merit against any similar games in the genre it blows everything on 3DS and PSP away. I can't believe they managed to pull this off on Vita. Loving the whole class disguise system and setting in the game. Im playing this one first before Connors story.

Do yourself a favour and just enjoy the game. Fuck the reviews. Go read up on what happened to the guy who got fired for calling out journalists on Eurogamer.

[Segitz]

Fuck the reviews

Yeah... just like the RE6 reviews, no? Ah well... I enjoy Yakuza Dead Souls more atm^^ (but I will finish RE6 this year)
