E3 2009 Assassin's Creed II Launching November 17
Ubisoft's press conference was a strange beast
It seemed to last approximately seven years in length and, well, there was very little in the way of Assassin's Creed II - which we think everybody expected to be a big deal at the show. Especially when it launches on November 17th. That's, what, five or so months away? We've barely seen anything of the...

News First Set Of Vin Diesel Wheelman DLC On The Way
Wheelman was a bit of surprise to us
We jumped in expecting nothing, but what we got was a totally hollow but still entirely enjoyable game. It's throwaway fun and if we could have more of it we'd bite Ubisoft's hand off. So it's with some happiness that we can announce five new "Street Showdown" missions for $4.99. Not willing to splash...

First Impressions The Wheelman on Playstation 3
We didn't think we were going to like The Wheelman
On paper it all just sounds a bit too, for want of a better word, simple. You drive around, smash up cars, snore-snore. And while we can't guarantee The Wheelman won't get repetitive, from what we've played we do think it's awesome. The latest game to feature actor Vin Diesel is a high-octane...

News Assassin's Creed To Be Clutched Within Your Bloody Palms By March 2010

I've been sceptical about the new Prince Of Persia game because the original aside I've never touched the series
