Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. Good god I can’t wait for this game to release already… Far Cry 3 was one of my favorite games of 2012 (just behind Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning and Borderlands 2) and when I caught wind of a downloadable offshoot I was excited for some more Far Cry goodness. Then I started seeing that it was being modeled after something shit directly out of the [...]

Hoping to utterly to erase any and all taste of last year’s reveal of Splinter Cell: Blacklist‘s decidedly un-stealthy shenanigans, Ubisoft have released a new, stealth focused trailer for the game to remind everyone that the game hasn’t devolved into an insipid, third-person shooter. Rather than the in-game footage which has been released previously, this newest video instead frames Mr. Sam Fishers sneaky goings-on in a more cinematic style; showing off a [...]

Seemingly out of the blue, Ubisoft has debuted a gameplay trailer for Prince of Persia: The Shadow and The Flame HD on iOS. A 2D platformer with 3D models and backgrounds, it merits strong comparisons with Prince of Persia: Classic which was released on the format a year or two back, but is based entirely on the sequel to that game; Prince of Persia 2: The Shadow and the Flame. [...]

“THE APOCALYPSE HAS HAD AN APOCALYPSE”, booms the gleefully OTT narrator on the debut trailer for Ubisoft‘s forthcoming Far Cry 3 spin-off, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. Doused in 80′s sci-fi neon and a veneer of dodgy VHS effects, the game casts the player as one Sergeant Rex Powercolt (voiced by 80′s sci-fi icon Michael Biehn no less), who has the unenviable task of defeating a massive robot army hellbent on ending the [...]

Guess who’s back?  Classic 90′s platformer Flashback is being given a new lease of life and a new lick of paint from Ubisoft who have today announced the HD remake for release on XBLA and PSN sometime later this year. Being chiefly led by original creator Paul Cuisset, developer VectorCell has rebuilt the game in 2.5D using the Unreal Engine.  So don’t worry, the action will remain locked to the [...]

Six screenshots for what is thought to be a standalone continuation to last year’s excellent Far Cry 3, have just surfaced on the interwebs. Spotted by All Games Beta, the screenies for Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon show off a neon-drenched, over-blown post-apocalyptic setting and should set minds to rest who may have thought that the game would ditch the first person perspective in favour of being a side-scroller or something similar. Ubisoft for [...]

Much to the delight of assassins and wannabe privateers everywhere, Ubisoft have just released the first gameplay footage of their next ‘Creed title, Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag. In the video we get to see all sorts of swashbuckling adventure ranging from close-combat with sailors, to ship-to-ship combat, underwater shark fighting (what is it Ubisoft have against those poor beasts?), looting of treasure in addition to the usual Assassins Creed [...]

Ubisoft have just chucked out a developer commentary video for Splinter Cell: Blacklist which shows off a whole bunch of new gameplay set inside an abandoned mill. As well as giving us a brief overview of the gadgetry that Sam finds himself accosted with this time out, the video also plays quite neatly into the affections of long-time fans with a bespoke focus and stealthiness that was jarringly absent from [...]

Apologies for the late and brief update this week, but I’m balls deep in boxes from moving and I just barely squeaked out the time to scribble this little post while stealing my neighbor’s internet. This week’s PS Plus freebie is Joe Danger 2: The Movie for the PS3. To go along with that freebie, you can get yourself a discount on the Scott Pilgrim vs. The World Ultimate Edition, [...]

It’s wonderful when a company takes the time to listen to its community and even more so when they heed the advice of many to give back to the many. Ubisoft has heard your voices and implemented patch v1.05 for Far Cry 3 on all platforms to bring you the most up-to-date version of the game with some desired functionality and replay value. In fact, the patch not only affects [...]
