One of the games that inspired me to purchase a Playstation 3 (PS3) - actually, this game, along with Haze, counts for most of my most-eagerly-awaited games on the console - is Ubisoft's "Assassin's Creed".
The game takes place in medieval times (during the Third Crusade, more precisely the year 1191) and places you in the shoes of Altair, a member of the Hashshashin sect of true "assassins", who moves freely between the cities of Jerusalem, Acre and Damascus with the goal of eliminating nine important and historically-accurate figures.
Key aspects of the game's appeal are the total interactiveness of the environment (very realistically crafted, they say) and the flawless historical accuracy (all targets of elimination are people who died or disappeared in the year of 1191).
To tell you the truth, I think that this was the game that "rang the bell" for me, in terms of gaming platform of the future, because it will only be available for the PS3 (Sony's latest baby - if you didn't know that, go back and make sure you read my posts attentively. I mean, I'm working my ...keyboard off trying to get my posts to be factually accurate and you don't bother to take notice and learn?! :D) and the Xbox 360 from Sony's bitter rival, Microsoft. (it is announced for the PC also, to be released sometime in early - Q1 - 2008)
I now invite you to join me in watching "Assassin's Creed" 's beautifully made trailer :
Seems like Ubisoft did it again, wouldn't you agree?
I can barely wait to get my hands on it!
