Ubisoft’s North American president, Laurent Detoc, was recently quoted as saying, “When we bring it [Assassin’s Creed] back, there will be more anticipation for it.” This was in response to why Ubisoft waited so long to bring the Prince of Persia franchise back to gaming consoles. Apparently Ubisoft believes in making gamers wait a long period of time so that when a sequel comes out it will be hyped up and highly anticipated.
Right now, Ubisoft is behind EA and Activision in the video game industry. Do you think Ubisoft has noticed that EA (Madden) and Activision (Guitar Hero) are constantly releasing new titles of their popular franchises? Ubisoft says they have enough money to hold them over and don’t need to keep pumping out games.
So while it’s is highly likely we will see an Assassin’s Creed sequel in the future… it may just take 3-4 years for it to get here.
This is one of the hardest assassination missions in the game. You can spend a couple hours doing this and still come up short. There will be wave after wave of foes before you finally reach the real Robert de Sable. Unfortunately, there is no way around it. You must fight, and you must win.
I’ve read one suggestion online that says:
The easiest thing to do is get out the hidden blade and counter one of them.
Although it is difficult and the timing is strict, once you nail one of them at least one of the other guards should back away in fear, letting you simply jump onto him with the wrist blade.
For every kill one of the guards should react like this, so you can easily combo most of the guards down using this little tactic…
I’ve read another that recommends you fight, then just keep running in circles until your health regenerates.
If you’re still having trouble, check out this video below. It may give you a better idea of how to accomplish this mission.
Nearly 26,000 PSP fans have signed an online petition demanded UbiSoft release their smash hit Assassin’s Creed to the PSP. The petition starts out very strongly, and reads:
Considering the success that Assassin’s Creed has seen on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, we feel it is a slap in the face for PlayStation Portable fans to see the Nintendo DS getting Assassin’s Creed in early 2008. If this is the kind of treatment Ubisoft plans to show its loyal PSP fans in the future, then I for one will go elsewhere for my gaming needs.
I doubt Ubisoft would take an online petition seriously. Years of planning goes into development for video games. If they wanted to release Assassin’s Creed on the PSP, they would have done it by now. They must have their reasons… I just don’t know what they are. If it can be created for Nintendo DS, then it can be ported to the PSP.
Lucy Stillman, of Assassin’s Creed, is a scientist working for Abstergo Industries. She helps Dr. Vidic in the research of Altair. She is modelled after and voiced by Kristen Bell.
Not much is known about Lucy’s at the start of the game, although it can be assumed that she is not as cold hearted a person as Dr. Vidic is. She frequently stops Desmond from using the Animus for prolonged periods of time, because she says it can strain the body severely if used for too long. She is also generally warmer in personality than Dr. Vidic and is generally nicer to Desmond, allowing him a bit more freedom than Dr. Vidic Does, even to the point of allowing him to use her computer once.
Ubisoft, the creator’s of Assassin’s Creed, modelled Lucy almost identically to Kristen Bell. Take a look at the hair and beauty marks. I mean, the real version of her is way hotter then the pixellated one, but still I think they did an awesome job.
