Ubisoft preps animated Assassin's Creed short

@bossmon19, read the article before making the lousy comments.

$uck

Ubisoft must be in deep $#!% if they went this low. Too bad for their games.

F it they should just make a whole CGI movie I would love to see that done wit video game instead of movies like Resident Evil & crap

Talk about milking the series... Only been 3 years, and look at where we stand. A digital short, worth 2 dollars. Seriously? I LOVE AC, but this is kind of a joke. Ill be getting Brotherhood just to finish this line of the story, but they need to focus on what really counts: and thats the tale of Desmond. They need to let go of this multiplayer crap and all this extra stuff they are popping up with.

Sweet, looking forward to this! I love the AC franchise!

Oh come on.. don't tease me like this.. ;)

@isshiah - Don't you mean.. templar toilet paper?

Cool.

when ever i get ms points if i have anything extra after i buy bioshock 2: minervas den i will buy the short

a lot happened in that trailer...

Well, while two bucks is nothing, I don't think i'll be paying it. I mean they already get you for the game and DLC, I'm not going to line their pockets for some cartoon backstory. I mean the live action they did last time was free and they actually had to pay actors and the whole nine for that, this one should be cheaper to produce I'd imagine, but now you have to pay, pfft.

I dont think they pay their dev`s 2$ a month...or do they?

Yeah like im gonna buy that. Money grabbing tw@tss. Shouldnt they just give it free to people who have AC1 & AC2 on there gamercards.

wtf!

what is the point in making trailers like this, 34 seconds of nothing...oh wait ezio jumped off a roof, im glad i watched now.

They need to make a live-action movie of Assassin's Creed.

its not for ps3 only hmmm sony you couldny pay ubisoft

Man this sucks, nowadays you have to pay for everything DX Soon you will have to pay for the basic things humans do ... ='( P.S: And I really love AC ...

great game AC2 good going ubisoft...

i would use assassins creed toilet paper, that's how much i love the series...only a few days left.

looks pretty kewl

Cudos of Ubisoft. Instead of pricing the mechandise at around $10 USD (which, depedning on the length, they could've) they made it two bucks! As if anybody has any excuse to not pick this up!

Awesomeness, i wonder what will be released when Assassins Creed 3 comes our way. Before anyone says it, Brotherhood is not the third installment, i want it though :D

Lol, I'm not a fan of Assassin's creed. But I always like to spend a few minutes watching a few of the shorts. They are well made, what can I say?

Pass.

fail and spoiler

$2? I'll take it.

They should be concentrating on making AC: Lost Legacy on PSN or Live instead of it being a 3DS game.

I was going to say.... when I read the title I thought, "Assassin's Creed animated TV series" or somethin'....

I think it's just a waste of development and part of that development leads to spoilers relating to the actual story for Ezio Auditore and the Templar order, in this case of those people who hadn't played Assassin's Creed 2. But the cost for each Ascendance episode of $2.99, is just a waste of PSN money/ XBL points. Ubisoft, you're doing so brilliant... why go in the direction you not supposed to be going?

I hope the trailer quality doesn't represent the actual product's quality, because it looks like it was animated in flash...

Ubisoft is really joining the ranks of the idiot publisher army, shame really.

Not sure if I'll bother with this, but it must be said the makers of AC always charge a reasonable price for additional content unlike some people. I'm looking at you Activision...

AC2, while a great game, proved that the developers have no skill whatsoever at crafting a good story and plot. So yeah, low expectations for this.

Hold on, one second. I thought Brotherhood took place EXACTLY after the events of AC2?

What? You want moar money from me, Activision? Too bad, too bad.

The last animated AC was well done but absolutely pointless, as it had zero story, and was just made to show off their action sequences.

i dont get it people say ac:b follows STRAIGHT after ac 2 but how? i mean the villa never had canons, i think it might take place a few months after 2 rather than the very second 2 finishes?

come on make AC3 already i'm dieing over the story

How is that even a teaser? They spent more time telling us to follow them on twitter. **** that.

What the... Ubisoft has always made a fairly big deal about the fact that Brotherhood starts LITERALLY THE VERY MINUTE Ezio leaves the vault from the end of AC2. So how the hell are they going to flesh out his "Adventures" between the two games when there's no time between them? =.='

They should include it on the £60 Codex Edition that I bought

I've never felt anything but disappointment with animated movies/shorts/series based on videogames. Can't imagine this will surprise me.

Shouldn't it be free for the fans?

I could have sworn I saw a DLC for Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood on the PlayStation Network and the game isn't even out yet.

I wouldn't mind paying for this. If only I could put it onto disk from my PS3 :(

GIVE US BACK RAINBOW SIX !!!

Entertainment cost money, I'm sure that this will be an excellent story within itself. Is Ubisoft just making fun of itself because if I remember correctly from the first AC game, movies become obsolete!!!!
