NZGamer: On the internet there have been huge dramas over a comment during an interview you made regarding technical issues on the 360 and PS3. Want to clear that up for us?
Patrice: (Laughs) Well, I wasn't supposed to answer that question the first time. Basically my role isn't the technical side of the game but I was asked what were the biggest challenges we faced... Maybe, also, it was my English as I'm not very good with my tenses. I mean, the game is almost gold, so it'll be on DVD on the 360, everything which needed to be figured out for the PS3. We didn't cut anything, it's all there.
Another thing, when I did that interview, it was in September, there was an embargo, and they couldn't print it for another three weeks. So the "problems" were being reported when it wasn't the case. The game will be out on time, on both platforms, and everything is fine. There really is no issue!

GL: "Staff writer Shaz reflects on his small library of physical games he's kept throughout the decades, and how a recent move made him nostalgic."
I lost my drive for collecting physical games due to many discs lacking the whole complete game. Instead, of collecting games I started collected figurines.
I am a collector have a room dedicated with a couple original arcade cabinets, physical game library, old and new consoles and controllers backlit with LED lighting. It’s very cool to have but with emulation being so strong and prevalent, I sometimes feel foolish because the hobby is expensive and like another said, the full game is not always on the disc. Could probably spend more wisely but I enjoy it.
Most games are usually on disc still. Of course you got you publishers that are hit and miss, Activision, ubisoft, ea, Microsoft, where the rest of the game needs downloaded.
With over 5144 games on the PS3, it is easy to miss out on some great games. Here are some of the best unknown games on the PS3.
I remember Stranglehold! One of the first DLC packs of its time. A bit expensive, but cheap by today’s standards.
Another PS3 hidden gems list, and yet again Time Crisis 4 and Time Crisis Razin' Storm get snubbed. Such fun games, that shouldn't be forgotten. If only we got a home port of Time Crisis 5: Mastermind Edition.
WET is something I wish they'd remake, they had so many great ideas but not all of them were executed properly
It had a lot of potential
Also Wanted Weapons of Fate is another game that had some new fun gameplay ideas.
Can we lay all the bull to rest.Whether you got a 360 or a PS3 you will get the game and it will be great.Don't talk bull about the PS3 its version was built separately,ITS NOT A PORT.COD:4 isn't a port either.This is great because we all get to enjoy Assassin's Creed.So no hating just happy.Lets all just get over the Bull Sh!t.I'm tired of it,I know all you are.After all the crap everyone was talking both versions will be good.So I ask you...whats wrong with that?
(edit)
Also 25 hours of gameplay and 120 NPCs on screen is amazing.And its a sandbox game so you'll get more than 25 hours out of it.I'm really glad I pre-ordered the limited edition.I'm really looking forward to this game.
both version were built from the ground up, not a crappy EA like port. However, I do feel a sense of loathing, not sure that is quite the word I'm looking for, but I just feel the ps3 version was not taken to it's full potential (I hear the sighs), for instance extra content, extras such as behind the scenes etc., six axis use a bit like uncharted, I mean because Microsoft is spending so much money to promote this game for the 360, and shy away the fact it is also coming out on the PS3.
For instance, Jade Raymond appearing at the 360 E3 conference, not ps3, the xbox 360 coming out with a limited edition, promotion has been primarily for the 360 version, Jade ringing up the guy who stated the 360's disadvantage of the DVD 9. As much as they say for PR reasons "yes we fitted everything onto the DVD", I bet they would have loved to add so much more. I mean come on, compression can only get you so far.
I would have liked it if my 360 had a built in HD-DVD, or hell Blu-Ray, that would be really awesome if i could play games that weren't being packed onto a disc format that the bloody ps2 used.
But anyway I'm excited for this game, I'm not sure which version I'll get yet, I'll have to wait for the reviews to come in and then decide. But assassins creed is looking mad regardless and a second day buy for me! (second day because of the reviews lol)
This game is going to suffer from massive ammounts of idiot AI and chugging framerates... It's Ubi-soft. They're not makers of anything worth while.
It's good that the developer says it's dandy on PS3, but we won't really know until the review.
go away come again another day. seriously your like the depressing rain in a song when a day is going great. Your avatar says it all why are you on this site, not to mention that the game isn't out yet so leave criticisms to people who have actually played the whole game unless you are somehow in ubisofts employ which would be wierd of you to say these things.
