I liked Revelations more than Brohood, though I never really bothered with MP for either. I found it worth it for Altair's story alone. AC 2 and Revelations retroactively made a relatively dull character my favourite character in the series.

Bro-hood was my favourite. It brought back all of your favourite characters in a fun new historical setting with new gadgets and gameplay elements.

Back on the topic of those latest advertisements: I have to wonder how many people will be motivated to buy AC III on the basis of the "America Fuck Yeah" implications, but then complain about a bait-and-switch on the Grey-and-Grey Morality aspects. Can you imagine Fox News covering the game and blubbering about how you "kill Americans"?

[up] I'm hoping that's the result of this! Meaningless controversy is the best form of free publicity.

I think they took the pic of Paul Revere's house from a different angle.

Will they even realize that the company that's developing the game is Canadian?

Nobody cares, I'm afraid. Provincialism is not entirely American, but it is very real.

Another Liberation story trailer

It really is coming along nicely. For all we know it could be the Killer App the Vita needs. (And it truly needs it.)

Unfortunately, it's just snippets, and there are no download links.

Still, dat main theme. BO

[up][up][up][up] There's a song called FIGHT CLUB. And it's so awesome. I also like Modern Assassin.

There's a song called FIGHT CLUB.
Are you even allowed to talk about that song?

Well, I accepted the offer from my workmate. I'm not sure what edition it is, though. On one hand, it seems like the Freedom Edition, especially since he ordered it at Game Stop. But he says there is also a flag in it, which the Freedom Edition doesn't have. Also, it seems to be UK-exclusive (but I'm not sure whether I misunderstood something). So, it seems that it's the Limited Edition after all. But that one doesn't have Washington's notebook, so it seemed to be out. But then I read that they included it, due to popular demand, so the Limited Edition seems the most likely one now. In the end, we only know for sure when he has it.

Something I wonder about is how they will do the "greyness" of the whole thing. While I don't think that it's actually necessary, it could be that there are allies and enemies on both sides of the independence war, but I wonder how that would be even possible. But then I considered internal conflicts. I can imagine that members of both the Assassins and Templars put their disagreements aside, to be strong enough to fight their enemy, but I can imagine that it doesn't always work. Maybe some internal conflicts are so strong that they cause a rift in the organization in question and the formation of subgroups that are opposed to each other. Or maybe just a small rebellious group, that opposes the main organization (seems more likely, actually), but is still mostly in line with its "values" to belong to them and not defect to the other side.

I don't actually think that this will happen in ACIII, but I think it could still be interesting. Especially if it happens to the Assassins.

People aren't as awful as the internet makes them out to be.

Desmond looks really funny from the side at the end there, when he's holding the Apple.

That's a third party channel. It's not the main Ubisoft Youtube channel, anyway, which makes me wonder if it's official.
