That this Limited Edition contains commissioned work by Penny-Arcade and it's the only game they've defended lately? Kinda interesting that they get paid to produce content for a game, defend that game against reviewers, but attack Sony for defending Lair against reviewers?

NEO_X6033d ago

Im going to have to dissagree with you on that one.
I think Lair at least before its update was near unplayable for people like me who have gotten so used to the analog stick.
Assassins creed is a very good game and honestly i think they overhyped it to the point where the reviewers decided to pummel it.
Also I think that after getting critisized for giving out so many 10's the reviewers decided to start being a little more harsh.

vgn246032d ago

Bigger picture here fella. Bigger picture. Forget whatever game it was. The point is that they came of pretty hypocritical point fingers at a company with a vested interest in a game when they turn around and criticize reviewers for panning a game that they have a vested interest in. i.e. Assassin's Creed shouldn't get any negative reviews because PA got paid to produce content for it?

I love Penny-Arcade. They're hilarious. But it's a big pot calling the kettle black when suddenly the tables are turned and it's their product (by association) that's getting criticized.

socomnick6032d ago

yea but lair cant be defended it was a disaster.

tonsoffun6033d ago

How come all that stuff wasn't included in the standard limited edition Assasins creed?

That totally blows - Have everything included in the standard limited edition.

ATLRoAcH6033d ago (Edited 6033d ago )

...because there was only a limited amount of the Limited Editions produced.Every limited edition had all these things.

tonsoffun6032d ago

My Limited edition (it clearly states this on the front of the box) only has the 12" resin statue of Altair and the game nowt else.

So I am assuming that there is multiple limited edition versions?

GIJeff6033d ago

this version of the game work?

tonsoffun6032d ago

mine works fine, what you need to do is use that black thing with the sticks on it. it is called a Control Pad.

Bubble Buddy6032d ago

i say it's not worth it. i bought it ad it's not worth the ten extra bucks and 2 bucks extra tax. the comic is very short, the guide is like useless, i didn't even need it. the game is already clear on what you need to do and the guide only adds bits of hints that you can find on the internet. the dvd was okay, and the altair figure was crazy, but other than dat, not worth your ten extra bucks.

Can We Finally Admit Assassin's Creed 3 Deserves an Apology?

AC3 was released during a turbulent transition period for Ubisoft and the Assassin's Creed series. It ventured into uncharted territory, narratively and mechanically, which caused it to receive mixed reviews. At its core, though, it's a damn good stealth game.

isarai241d ago

Nope, I hated 3, connar was bland, literally the most flat character in the entire game. Not to mention to myriad of bugs, camera issues, and that annoying thing where he automatically ditches his weapon you payed for for the sake of a cool finishing move forcing you to trek back to your base after almost every encounter just to re-equip your own weapon. It just didn't work as fluidly as the others like 2 and 4

Samonuske241d ago

The series peaked at AC3 for me. It’s been my favourite in the series. Connor will always be one of my favourite video game protagonists.

Becuzisaid241d ago

No. Game was BORING. Connor was really dull. Environments, while impressive, because of the geographic location and time period were not really exciting to be in. I would love some kind of game set in there colonial American time period, but a game like AC that back then centered around parkour and vertical traversal really didn't fit those environments.

-Foxtrot241d ago

Nope

There was a lot of issues but mine is how they handled the war

They told us Connor was not going to get involved, that the war was more of a background setting for the real story and it wasn’t going to be one sided

They lied, even the cinematic E3 trailer showed Connor emerge from the Colonist side and slaughter the red coats to get to his target, inspiring the Colonists to fight back

I just thought it would have made more sense lore wise that the red coats were mostly compiled of Assassins fighting the Colonist templars who wanted to take the new world for themselves.

Since the Red coats lost the war, it would then explain how the Templars started to gain the upper hand and how on the future the assassins were mostly killed off and the Templar’s had pretty much taken over everything.

Instead it just felt like they didn’t want to p*** off the American audience

Even Haytham was cool, he should have been an Assassin through and through and should have been the main lead.

toxic-inferno241d ago

The game even seems to lack the humour of the other games. It almost seems as though the idea of even slightly making fun of American history wouldn't be acceptable.

-Foxtrot241d ago

Exactly

It just felt super safe

“Better not make the colonists look super bad incase people boycott our game”

jeromeface240d ago

someone missed the whole point

-Foxtrot240d ago

There was literally no point

What I've just said above would at least make sense lore wise and why the Assassins start to loose their war, die off and how the Templars are in control in the future of almost everything....what they did was just, pointless

CrimsonWing69241d ago

I’m one one of those weird people that liked Ass Creed 3, but to be fair I never got around to finishing it.

GhostScholar252d ago (Edited 252d ago )

I disagree that max is unlikable. Chloe is infinitely more unlikable in my opinion.

gold_drake252d ago

omg chloe was awful. i really hated her at the end haha

Cacabunga252d ago

Abby was absolute trash protagonist in every way..
Tidus was so meh to me..
On villain side, the one i didn’t like wa Micah, because they wanted him to be that way and it was brilliant👍🏽

Rancegamerx252d ago

I agree, I liked Max, Chloe was a horrible friend and a bad influence.

Cacabunga251d ago

Everyone agrees on chloe, I’m sure even ND do.

H9252d ago

Both are horrible, granted Chloe is infinitely worse, it feels like Chloe is just fanservice for people who too over the edge and wasn't written to be a character that makes sense

GooGobbler252d ago

What about that Forspoken Tw*t

MrChow666252d ago

exactly I was expecting it to be a the top of the list

ravens52252d ago

Ye I was expecting her too. Guess they actually played the game. Unlike you and whoever agrees.

gpimlott251d ago

I played through the whole game and think she is one of the worst character Ive ever played as

ravens52251d ago (Edited 251d ago )

gpimlott. How?

Stanjara241d ago

Why would I payed and played the game if the whole internet is making fun of a character?

-Im here to kill Chaos...are you Chaos?

Yeah, I didn't play that game either.

Christopher252d ago (Edited 252d ago )

She's actually not bad. It's the writing itself that is bad overall, but she's fine overall. She's no worse than Miles Morales IMHO. Both thrust into a spotlight and receiving both praise and blame and dealing with it.

Forspoken is a bland game because it's 75% bland, boring, repetitive going through the motions and diversions that add nothing of the value with purposefully gated memory moments that don't feel organic or like you're discovering things but waiting for others to reveal things.

ravens52251d ago

Exactly Chris. Even though I liked the game. I kno u played it. People who actually played it and went thru her dream saw she was a good likeable person who really just acted out due to being alone and unloved. I think your problem is it was open world, I think if it was more linear you may have liked it better.

savedsynner251d ago

Oh no she's bad. Very unlikable even before you add on the bad dialogue. The game could have been quite good with a good protagonist

ravens52251d ago

For all the people like synner. Shes actually half white lol. Inferior complexity is a hell of a thing. You'll be ok.

Nerdmaster252d ago

Most of these aren't even that bad. Especially comparing to others like Squall "Whatever" Leonhart, Forspoken's Frey, and the guy from Atomic Heart.

-Foxtrot252d ago

Squall is one of the best developed main FF characters so...

People talk about his "whatever" thing thats at the start of the game, not the character he eventually becomes in the end.

Nerdmaster251d ago

No amount of "character development", (especially the ones that for me feels sudden and undeserved like Squall's), will justify him being a d**k to my girl Quistis. Even if he found the cure for cancer, from that moment on, I would never like him.
The article is about being unlikeable, and he was indeed unlikeable for at least half of the game.

BrainSyphoned252d ago

Squall is the best protagonists in FF so you can go whatever yourself.

H9252d ago

My good sir, I need to steal that "you can go whatever yourself" because it's gold

BlaqMagiq1252d ago

Except Squall has actual character development.

gold_drake252d ago (Edited 252d ago )

the "watever" is only present in the english localisation.
so your argument doesnt rly ... stand imo.

Nerdmaster251d ago

Good for you that you could enjoy the japanese version. That's not the case for me and the majority of people here, though.
