Titolo: [semi-OT] assassin creed anche su PC e 360, preview Gears Of War

During the IDEF 2006, Ubisoft confirmed that Assassin' s Creed was currently
under development for Xbox 360 and PC, in more than one version besides the
PlayStation 3 one already announced. The owners of Microsoft's console will
be able them to thus step into the shoes of Altair at the height of the
Third Crusade. More information soon, especially concerning a possible
temporary exclusiveness for Sony's future machine.

e qui c'è una bella preview di gears of war che entra in molti dettagli
interessanti:

The game starts with the player underwater following a plane crash in the 
ocean, surrounded by debris. No introductory cut scene is displayed 
explaining how this happened, leaving the player to decide for themself why 
they were on the plane. Nearby, a lighthouse is sticking out of the water, 
in the middle of the ocean. Upon getting inside and traversing the internal 
stairwell, the player finds a bathysphere, with a corpse inside. Upon 
removing the corpse and descending in the bathysphere (having nowhere else 
to go), the player eventually reaches an underwater city on the ocean floor.
A plot unfolds involving the crumbling city, named Rapture, and the utopian 
society for which it was built. A man named Andrew Ryan, a former Soviet 
citizen, built the city in 1946, and the society was envisioned as the 
ultimate capitalistic and individualist paradise, with the elite achieving 
for themselves, rather than for the whole. Protected by a network of giant 
sea walls and consisting of a cluster of enormous skyscraper-shaped hive 
towers, Rapture was designed to be entirely self-supporting, with all of its 
electricity, food production, water purification and defense systems powered 
by the natural undersea currents of the ocean. At one point, it is learnt 
that Rapture's population numbered several thousand at its peak during the 
early 1960s.
A scientific discovery upset the balance of the society. Two scientists 
studying ocean-floor dwelling creatures discovered a species of sea slug 
that secretes pure stem cells. These could be used to enhance one's body, 
improving physical or mental capabilities, curing diseases and healing 
injuries. The substance, dubbed "Adam", became so sought after in the 
society, that it became the dominant currency of the city. A "full-scale 
genetic arms race" broke out between Ryan and a young entrepreneur named 
Fontaine. Ryan eventually won, but everyone in the city was permanently 
changed. During the war, it was discovered that Adam could be used to modify 
one's body, combining technology and mutations to adapt and survive the 
conflict, but losing their humanity in the process. During the conflict, all 
natural sources of Adam were destroyed, which eventually resulted in a major 
shift in the "ecology" of the city, as all inhabitants had become 
biologically dependant on Adam to survive.
When the player arrives in Rapture, the city is in a state of disrepair, its 
vast underground living areas and laboratory complexes scarred by the 
effects of the civil war and poisoned by biological weapons. Low-level 
flooding is also found to be a problem, as the use of high-powered 
explosives and corrosion weapons during the war created small breaches in 
the city's sea walls, allowing the sea to enter some of the buildings.
As the player descends through the underwater city, he or she will explore 
the many levels of the giant undersea base, including the huge living 
quarters modules, the multi-floored scientific headquarters and the undersea 
monorail transport network.

Che roba! Chi si lamentava sulle trame dei giochi ora ha di che tapparsi la 
bocca.

And the hardest part
was letting go not taking part (cit.) 

 la bocca.
forse troppo articolato, dopotutto  non son in tanti ad aver voglia di 
leggere un romanzo per capire la trama...
sarà molto apprezzato dagli altri (me incluso hehehehe)

Oh ma guarda che solo quello che hai postato emana carisma ad ogni 
carattere. E' proprio la cosa che e' studiata per evolversi attorno ad una 
trama solida.


 trama solida.
ma quanto ci sarà da godere duro dopo l'estate, QUANTO?
:D
iniziano ad uscire tutti i titoloni da qui sino al 2007, culminando con 
HALO3 e bioshock
sarà un grande annno per gli amanti degli action hehehe

no amico NESSUNA smentita:
"Ubisoft non ha confermato nessuna cosa del genere,"
questo è quello che hanno detto, a te pare una smentita che ' non ha 
confermato' la cosa?
in realtà son degli svilupppatori della ubisoft che han fatto girare la voce 
al IDEF 2006 che sia la versione pc che 360 son ugualmente in corso
cosa che si sapeva da tempo, comunque 

 "Ubisoft non ha confermato nessuna cosa del genere,"
"Assassin's Creed arriverà su PlayStation 3, nessun'altra piattaforma è 
stata confermata."
Quindi al momento ufficialmente non è prevista, ipotizzo anche io che lo 
sarà per il futuro comunque :-)

 Quindi al momento ufficialmente non è prevista,
questo è falso e non è mai stato detto
