lmao at first video: Ubisoft's Super Assassin Bros!

edit: I think the animation system deserves praise, you have two Altairs and even though they have the same input, they fight and climb like two different people

A delay is temporary but shoddy programming is forever. ..unless it gets patched. Those GTA4 and MGS4 delays are looking pretty good now huh?

Edit:

OMG I just watched the first video, WTF@two fighting Altairs. Killing himself reminded me of the time paradox in MGS3, I thought it was going to say that. This is shameful man, I can't believe that crap made it through QA.

I forgot to add the Duke Nukem Forever clause. That game is never coming out, that's why George Broussard always gets pissed whenever someone mentions it in a negative way. He knows the truth!! And if it does see the light of day it's gonna suck sooooo much but it's still going to sell a ton because everyone will want to see what 10 years of development time does. There's been 2 console generations during that time.

4 - I guess...

The more comprehensive and the more realistic the games get in the future, the more bugs there will be, which we have to get along with.
Still, it's not right to rush the release of a game and let the gamers be the Alpha/Beta tester. The overall quality of the games has greatly improved, however the bugs need to be minimized to a mininum. Patches can't be a solution for console games in the long term. In case we need to wait a little bit longer to enjoy a game almost bug-free. Good example is GTA IV. The game will be very complex and extensive but I could imagine the release date will be pushed back further and further to prevent bugs in the final version.

Take Uncharted its at least as complex as Assassin's Creed, I haven't seen any major bugs like this. Publishers should stop rushing their games to the market.

I'm in this group.

Just beat the game last night at 3 in the morning. 25 hour playthrough, but I got 100% of the memories, but not the additional memories. Haven't encountered a single lockup or freeze, or glitch, or bug.

I'm on the PS3 version, framerate has been clean for me, the only graphical issue was tearing on the view point pans, and turning the camera as fast as I can.

Good game I might add, very compelling story, but curiously unfun....Potential for good sequels if they improve the formula.

Edit: wow at the disagrees. I'm really sorry I loved this game....

AC does not deserve all the sh*t it's getting. It's a very fun game, but it needs a little bit more depth. If the missions had a lot more variation AC could of won GOTY.

(Before anyone disagrees with me check my XBL profile to see that I've actually played the game and that I'm not making this up)

I have not experienced any of these problems....this game doesnt deserve the amount of hate it is receiving...is really a good game that I usually dont like stealth type games but the only thing I hate about it is the modern time settings....but I guess it is a part of the story but give us a option too pass it up....

erosevaporator - 773 days 20 hours ago

5.9 - I wish I could say the same...

The only glitch I have experienced so far is the freezing glitch. Although it looked cool both times it happened, because in the first instance I was jumping from rooftop to rooftop, and stopped in midair. I could rotate the camera, and that was sweet. The second was during a leap of faith, and the same thing happened. It sucks that these exist, but it really isn't that big a deal. It has freezing. For the love of god, turn your console off, and start again. It's not like the game doesn't save when you enter a city, or sync with eagle vision....calm the hell down. It sucks, but it isn't a game killer.

10.2 - WORKS

did that and loged out of psn not a hiccup yet
on the ps3 version no real issues yet (apx 12/h in) having lots of fun with the game and imo the ps3 version looks has good if not better than the 360 with less tearing and framerate issues. (my dad bought it played an hour or two on my box same tv has the ps3)
Seems like the double altair and broken horse leg issues are unique to the 360 version while both are having freeze issues (unless you disable the afore mentioned settings on the ps3)

a 4 month delay if i remember right...the problem with multiplats is do you hold back the ps3 version..because obviously it has more problems...and lose the sales of people who own both consoles....damned if you do and damned if you dont.

13 - Hmm

So any word yet if the freezing, restarting issues are related to 2.0 or Ubi? (do they happen on the 360?)

First time ever I've had to turn off the power from he back of the PS3, I'm scared to turn ass creed back on :o)

I must admit, the dual Ailtar was kind of cool. Could be an neat perk later in the game, well as long as number 2 couldn't cause damage to you.

Finished the game today, on PS3, and haven't had the clone glitch at all. Just wondering if any PS3 gamer out there has seen the clone thing when playing or is that just a 360 issue? Would be odd if it was.

15.1 -

I haven't seen any glitches in the game when I was playing it (PS3 version), it's only frozen on me a few times, but no glitches, no framerate drops, only slight v-sync issues on the tallest of the view points. So it's been a pretty smooth ride for me on the PS3 but maybe that's because I haven't sat there solidly for hours and hours to complete the game like I know many do...

Had so much fun taking the hordes out at the end using the small blade, looks so much more assassiny lol
