Peter Molyneux Leaves Lionhead

20120307-184939.jpg

The Creative Director and Producer at Lionhead Peter Molyneux has left the company. As stated in the title. Duh.
God I’m horrible at this…
Anyways, main guy just left the company, and joined another one called 22 Cans.
Peter is most famous for his vivid imagination and ambition for his titles. Also hyping them.. A LOT.
(god professional journalism is hard).
This guy has let down more gamers with his new “innovations” than any softcore pornography with its misleading “nudity”.
Huh… not really that hard I see. (zing)
His most well received projects were Black & White, the Fable trilogy (and its dreadful spin-offs), Syndicate (the old RTS one), and Dungeon Keeper.

Good luck Peter. May god help you with your crazy ideas.

HOLY SHIT YES!
Finally the most anticipated game this year (for me at the very least) has a locked date! Hopefully it won’t be delayed, or come during the major exams that plague every student’s life.
BioShock Infinite is the third game in the series created by Ken Levine. It has abandoned the traditional location the previous game were based in, Rapture. This time it is set in the City of Columbus in mid air, decades before the first Bioshock timeline.

Assassin’s Creed III To Be Set in the US During the Revolution

written by: Aziz Twaijri

Nothing can be said more than what is written in the title, really. Although I’m sad that the game is not set during Victorian England, I AM excited about the idea of a full-on war against the Templars with the founding fathers of the US.
Judging by the tomahawk in the main guy’s hand however.. I could probably guess that he might be an.. Indian American?! That would pit the assassins against the Americans as well as the British.
Interesting.

This episode is two hours long (holy shit!). Almost half of the episode was the list of Best Video Game Endings that Guinness Book Records released. (Spoiler: they’re crappy). We also talk about our sad love lives, but SOMEONE has a date with his… MOTHER?!

Assassin’s Creed III: Coming October 30

 

Ubisoft has confirmed the release date for the latest title in the Assassin’s creed franchise as October 30.  No other details were mentioned other than it is the concluding title in Desmond’s plot. Rumors that the setting is going to be at either The French revolution or the American one. I, for one, hope the game would be based in Victorian England. The game has been confirmed for the following platforms: PS3, 360, PC, and Wii U.

 

Other news related to Ubisoft release schedule this year: The new Splinter Cell [Retribution] will be released on unspecified date. Far Cry 3 will released in September 6.
