Most game designers spend relatively little time thinking about the crowds in their worlds. Even in so-called living cities, residents generally either ignore you or run from you, with but a scant nod in the direction of all those interesting greys in between. Not Ubisoft. In its upcoming action game Assassin's Creed the people that pulse through the dusty, busy streets are anything but ordinary.

Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
Spiders: "We're going to cut straight to the chase so you're not left wondering: After a long period without clear answers, we have received confirmation that Spiders is being liquidated.
What does it mean? This means the company as a whole no longer exists. We'll cease our functions immediately. The planned DLC will release via Nacon, and then-- well, that's it.
We're sorry that it's come to this and would like to thank each and every one of you for your support over the years.
If you have any questions or run into issues with your games, please contact Nacon directly as we'll no longer be able to reply."
I dare any XBOT to take away my bubbles... Common is the least you can do while you wait for your defective 360 to get fixed.. with additional cost..
What once seemed like an insane game now seems average at best. The graphics and overall hype for this game has gone down a lot.
The worst thing they did was show the footage running on 360. Was a big let down in my book.
Hopefully the game will turn out good but with Ubisoft you never know what you are going to get.
I was hoping the interview had more to it than just that. It really didn't say much. I'm still excited for this game, but it's hard to tell if it's going to be a hit or not. It may turn out to just be a decent, but fun game, like Hitman, and not the gold some people are thinking it will be.
my brain is exploding waiting for this game, but this interview didn't tell us anything we didn't know about it since last year.
i have confidence that this game will be lots of fun, simply because Ubisoft Montreal and the Prince of Persia team know how to make badass action games with creative level design.
i thought the video they showed last year was awesome. the game still had nearly a years worth of dev time. that's a lot of milestones they've yet to hit concerning it's development.
we haven't really seen much of it since then, but they did say a demo was going to hit sometime this year, before it's launch (i'm hoping a July demo, since the game is supposed to hit in August/September).
about this interview, it could have been much, much better, instead of what seemed like another chance at marketing shillery; "yeah, we're doing things that have never been seen before...our story has more depth than meets the eye..." blah blah blah, give us something more to chew on, the game is just 4 months from release.
Rumour is they were too ambitious and it has had a downgrade...
