Yay! Although milking Ezio is a bummer, that little read got me excited.

[Coheno]

Yeah, but as long as it isn't Italy anymore I'll be fine! Constantinople/Istanbul sounds pretty awesome!

I would still like to see a Victorian London in the next next Assassin's Creed!

[ardivt]

victorian london would make this game probably the best in the series. can't imagine a better setting!

[Istanbull]

Istanbul is the cultural capital of the world lol. Plenty of things to see there. I am glad they chose Istanbul, now GTA V hopefully features Istanbul too!

Also, did I say the Ottoman Empire was awesome back in the day? lol

[NewZealander]

hell yeah, i dont care what people say about milking the franchise, i just cant get enough of it! they can release as many assassins creed titles as they like, and ill buy them all first day no questions asked.

[Zydake]

Oh damn ezio again i guess it'll have better info on it when i read it.

[Zydake]

BTW if any1 knows. What was the point in Assassin's Creed 2 when Desmond was Altair and Altair was following the lady and slept with her at the top of the castle thing?

[SoundGamer]

*Spoiler*

If you remember from AC 1 there was a female Templar that Altair fought during the course of the game? Then he let her go. Same female.

All is explained in AC: Bloodlines.

http://assassinscreed.wikia...

[Eamon]

It's to explain how the Assassin bloodline began from Altair. The Templar who was either sister or lover of Robert from AC1 became Altair's wife.

[Danielmccue]

Ah its got both Ezio auditore and Altair on it.

I guess we will be playing as both more frwquently.

[undercovrr]

Look at the article picture. It is half ezio half altair (at least it looks like him). The main guy with the dark cape on the picture IS NOT ezio. I mean, he looks nothing like him. I'm thinking its a crossover between the two characters meaning we probably will be able to play both.

[SoundGamer]

That is Ezio and Altair. Dead giveaway to that being Ezio? His scar on the upper lip. He's just older now.

The article even says its Ezio. The characters the game focuses on are Desmond, Altair, and Ezio. I'm excited :)

[Tired]

They all have the scar! Don't they?

Googled pics...yes they all have it.

[Eamon]

Yeah, they all have a scar but GameInformer confirmed the older one with the beard is Ezio.

[Eamon]

YES!!! I love this news. All three characters will be major characters!

[Falaut]

Didn't the guy (some french dood) that I guess you could say created the "Assassin's Creed" world, quit Ubisoft ways before Brotherhood. Guess he doesn't like Milk.

Neither do I.

[Marv]

*In Bart Scott impression* "Can't Wait"

[Convas]

No No NO!!!! Not this November. Please Anywhere but this November?!

WHY THE HELL would you pack your game into such a tightly packed arena? Skyrim, Uncharted 3, COD, Battlefield 3, there's no damn breathing room.

How is a brother supposed to CHOOSE?!?

[Coheno]

Easy, just leave COD out of the pack... Thats one down!

[Convas]

Definitely! What I mean though, is that from a marketing perspective, the market is split down severely in November.

I don't see all these games releasing in November. I think Mass Effect 3 was the first of a line of casualties to move out of this year holiday season and into next year.

[Coheno]

Well I will be buying BF3, U3 and this! But Christmas season! No matter what they are bound for huge sales...and Assassin's Creed has always done well in that period!

[Rashonality]

i would start saving money if i were you

[Uncharted3Goty]

i have question is these GameInformer magazine available in canada or is it USa ? only assassin creed is one of my favourite franchises so i thinking of picking the magazine up if availble here ?

[solidboss]

this is crazy, when this game releases brotherhood would only have been out for a year! talk about milking. i have to admit ac brotherhood surprised me with the length of the single player and the new gameplay additions but i rather the game be released in 2012. and why in a month like november with titles such as skyrim and uncharted? ubi is just asking for it by doing that....with that said i thought ezio's story was done at the end of brotherhood im looking forward to seeing how altair's part plays out seeing as how he had a fitting ending in the psp game.

[Tikicobra]

Holy crap, yes! I missed Altair.

[LoneWanderer09]

I think i need to hurry up and get my hands on AC Brotherhood

[Ascalon94]

you wont be dissapointed

[gillri]

Darn! No shaun hastings spin off then?

[Quagmire]

Lol, if they made a Shaun spinoff, I would officially stop buying any Ubisoft Products.

[JoeIsMad]

Fantastic art. Going to be great seeing that old coot together with this kid.

[Croash]

I can't believe how awesome these guys are.
That's 2 Assassin's Creed games in 2 years, and they certainly aren't messing around. Of course E3 will give us a clearer picture of the greatness (or possible shortcomings) of this sequel, but the fact that we get to play (an old) Ezio and Altaïr is already something good => The story will probably be very interesting.

If this is a means to conclude Ezio's trilogy, I wonder if Altaïr's story will end aswell (considering he had a spin off dedicated to him on PSP).
I guess Assassin's Creed 3 will focus on one new assassin, as did AC 1 and AC 2.

Well, we'll see what happens, still I'm sure this game is going to be outstanding. I'm also sure that this November will hurt a lot of wallets.

[MostJadedGamer]

Very dissapointed in what I hear so far. Going to the boring Middle East Again. Playing with Ezio for third time; playing Altair a second time, and I hate Desmond so any play time with him is bad.

I was so hoping for AC3 with a fresh setting(preferably French revolution), and fresh character. This just looks like too much of a rehash.

Ubisoft is really going to have to show me in that 12 page preview if they want me to even consider buying this game. Roght now I am very meh about it.

[Uncharted3Goty]

middle east is one of the most beautiful places to put the game i am sorry that you think its a boring place to put a game but it is not for a game like assassins creed

uncharted should show you that and these is turkey which is different from where we where in assassin creed and basly you where just bashing the game thats all but still i guess it was worth writing these

[SnakeMustDie]

It's actually Altair's third game. He had his own PSP game called AC Bloodlines

[MostJadedGamer]

Handhelds dont count.

[BeaArthur]

Should we start calling this Call of Creed?

[Eamon]

How about go and play the game.

I don't mind if we get a new game every year as long as it has the same high quality.

Milk is good if it tastes good.

[BeaArthur]

Ever heard the saying too much of a good thing? I like the Assassin's Creed series but it's the same thing every year now. I'm burnt out. Yeah I'll play it but it won't be a day 1 like the others. I'll wait until a dry spell.

[lochdoun]

Wow Ezio looks old and grizzled in that photo.

[Quagmire]

Hope he's more of a no-nonsense badass now. as Awesome as Ezio is, im getting tired of that sissy-boy voice of his.

Hope he's a kickass old guy like Liam Neeson or something, that will drastically change my view about him.

[saimcheeda]

and a final new ancestor of desmond!
