Far Cry 3, one of the most anticipated titles of 2012, has gotten an announcement trailer for the Insane Edition of the game. Sensitive ears be warned, the trailer uses some pretty strong language. The trailer for Far Cry 3: Insane Edition goes about the announcement in a unique way. When targeting gamers, unique is a

Get ready to settle in for a look at in-game footage for the upcoming Assassin’s Creed III. The trailer above checks in at two minutes and 25 seconds. A few bits of the footage (the guard hanging from the tree and the legions of riflemen on the battlefield) were actually part of the eyes-on gameplay

When it comes to the accurate representation of an era in the world’s history, it looks like Ubisoft won’t be shying away from some of the harsher truths. Among them, as discussed by Matt Rurnerhas, writer, with OPM UK, is slavery. This series has been noted for its historical accuracy and presentation. In fact, when

The folks at Ubisoft have started a promotional campaign to get everyone in the community to work together and unlock the world premiere gameplay trailer of Assassin’s Creed III.  If you want to contribute to unlocking this content, head on over to their Facebook page to like it and get started. Once liked, all you have to

First off, we assume it’s just a matter of time before Ubisoft finds the video above and removes it. So, if you want to check it out, now’s your chance. Rayman Legends appears to be the 2D follow-up to last year’s beautifully fun Rayman Origins. I loved that game so much that I actually took time

Ubisoft brought Far Cry 3 to the show floor; but, not the single player portion of the game. Ubisoft brought one multiplayer map to PAX East. There were two lines at the booth: one to play the game and one to get a mohawk. Both were crowded. I’m not kidding at all. Relax, my hair is

The private investment firm OpCapita has purchased the GAME and Gamestation stores that remain open following GAME Group’s decision to enter administration last month. 277 high street stores were closed last Monday, but OpCapita has purchased the 333 that remain for just £1 (approx. $1.60). It has set up a company called Baker Acquisitions to

Six brand new screenshots of Assassins Creed III‘s in-game action have leaked, and we thank All Games Beta for sharing. Fans will see their new hero (known both as Connor or Ratohnhaké:ton) paddling a canoe, stalking Redcoats in the rain, fighting in the forest and standing on top of a roof in a snowy colony. Speaking

Warning: If you’re at your desk at work or in a place that might not take kindly to killing and strong language, we suggest you save this trailer for later viewing. No, it’s not that bad, but we know we’d rather have the warning beforehand than afterwards. Aside from the big action, lush terrain, unique characters

Internet shopping and the rise in digital downloads have claimed their latest victim: European retailer GAME Group — which owns the GAME and Gamestation stores littered across the U.K. — has entered administration, its board has confirmed today. In total, GAME has 1,270 retail outlets across Europe and Australia, but the company has been struggling for

Assassin’s Creed III, after all the rumors and speculation, finally has a formal trailer and release date. Catch the video above. The game features a brand new engine, according to the release sent around by Ubisoft. The engine itself is called Ubisoft-AnvilNext and will feature upgrades to the game’s graphics on all fronts. The trailer above

Insiders have claimed that British retailer GAME may be about to shut its high street stores before it is forced into bankruptcy. The company has recently failed to secure key titles from the likes of EA, Nintendo, and Ubisoft, and there is said to be a “real risk” that its directors will “pull the plug”

Yesterday, the gaming community saw a good bit spill from a leak centered around Ubisoft’s upcoming Assassin’s Creed III. We learned, thanks to slips from Best Buy and Game Informer, that the game is set to take place in America during the Revolutionary War period. While Ubisoft has promised more information regarding Assassin’s Creed III for

This morning, we posted two stories containing potentially leaked images for Ubisoft’s upcoming Assassin’s Creed III. The first was a story from Kotaku that had a Best Buy employee tip the gaming blog with a photo of some upcoming in-store art from the publisher. The second story spoiled some of Game Informer‘s fun as it was

The leaked image above (click it to embiggen) comes from NeoGAF poster LyleLanley. The hub banner is supposedly from Game Informer. The cover game for last month’s issue of Game Informer was The Last of Us. The magazine always lines those covers up with news and information hubs on their site. So, any The Last of Us story that

UPDATE: Another leaked image from another source has popped up that further confirms the going theory for AC3‘s locale and protagonist. Check it here. Original Story: This bit of rumor marks the most recent in a string linking Ubisoft’s next story in the Assassin’s Creed line to the rough era of the American Revolution. Thanks to

I had to come to work today to provide you guys with fresh content on this fine February morning, so I’m waiting for my PS Vita pre-order to arrive on my doorstep. But if you’re heading out to pick yours up from a GAME store in the U.K., don’t expect to grab one of Ubisoft’s

The video above consists of more than five minutes worth of gameplay from Far Cry 3. It’s not a straight sequence, so expect several jump-cuts between moments of action and inaction as the clip wears on. I counted myself among the crowd that genuinely enjoyed Far Cry 2. The game absolutely had its share of problems, like

The video above sports right around two minutes of gameplay footage for Ubisoft’s next entry in the Ghost Recon brand, Ghost Recon: Future Soldier. Future Soldier has seen all sorts of delays and re-schedulings since its initial announcement. The game was first targeted to release between 2009 and 2010, then 2010 and 2011, then of 2011 and 2012

The Assassin’s Creed franchise is headed to the American Revolution, according to a new rumor produced by the folks at CVG. They’ve been given the information by a source close to the project. The next installment will feature a new protagonist, as Ezio’s tale concluded with Revelations last fall, and is said to be based in pre-U.S. soil

The trailer above is for this year’s Xbox LIVE Arcade House Party. Between all the scenes of super cool people walking and dancing in slow-motion are some gameplay clips for the titles to be featured during the sale. Much like the Summer of Arcade, the House Party stands as a launch platform for some of

2011 was a wild year for video games. As gamers, we’ve seen some of the most wonderfully conceived and designed titles this medium has ever offered in the span of just 12 months. As consumers, most of us don’t have pockets deep enough to enjoy every piece of astounding software that hit the market. In

According to a report from EDGE, the next entry in the Xbox brand will be announced at CES in January and, as the publication asserts, will be on sale at retail before the end of 2012. EDGE’s anonymous source indicates the Ubisoft is working with a devkit version of Microsoft’s upcoming follow-up to the Xbox

Yes, already. Ubisoft released Assassin’s Creed: Revelations for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 platforms yesterday. The publisher decided to follow this software’s release with official news of the game’s first round of post-launch DLC. “The Ancestors Character Pack” is a rather small batch of downloadable content, but it comes at a reasonable price. From the

Assassin’s Creed: Revelations, the fourth game in the now yearly franchise from Ubisoft, is officially available for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The story spanned in the first three entries in the brand is one that weaves in and out of itself constantly, and is probably one of the more complicated mainstream gaming plot lines running today …
