I wonder if any developer has the gonads to pick this up...I can't imagine a game with swarthy protagonists selling well in the states,but it sounds interesting..maybe a downloadable title would work
I wonder if the sequel will take on Americas shooting down of Iranian Flight 655?
Lemme refresh your memories.
"Iran Air Flight 655 (IR655) was a civilian jet airliner shot down by US missiles on 3 July 1988, over the Strait of Hormuz, toward the end of the Iran–Iraq War. The aircraft, an Airbus A300B2-203 operated by Iran Air, was flying from Bandar Abbas, Iran, to Dubai, United Arab Emirates, when it was destroyed by the U.S. Navy's guided missile cruiser USS Vincennes, killing all 290 passengers and crew aboard, including 66 children,[1] ranking it seventh among the deadliest airliner fatalities.[2] It was the highest death toll of any aviation incident in the Indian Ocean and the highest death toll of any incident involving an Airbus A300 anywhere in the world. Vincennes was traversing the Strait of Hormuz, inside Iranian territorial waters, and at the time of the attack IR655 was within Iranian airspace.[3]"

Yeah, this was on the c-blogs a few weeks ago. Unfortunately it's like 10% about the game and 90% "Are violent games training our children to be serial panda murderers?" bullshit
The new generation of Iranians aren't bad.
I wonder if Ubisoft will try & integrate the current wave of revolutions in the Middle East into the story of Assassin's Creed 3.

Really dislike the angle of the interviewer. Otherwise, I dig the direction he's proposing. I'd play it at a high price
I live in Iran (though I'm not an Iranian) and I have to say I'm not interested in this, at all.
It will either A) Be full of lies B) Never come out of development. Mark my words on that.

Thank god it's finally happening. For too long stories have been from just one perspective, and that is of the protagonist of a fairly cliche story. The thought that now there will be a game with the same story told from multiple perspectives just to highlight the notion that "there are no good guys" sounds really appealing to me.
I just hope everyone can put down the latest Call of Duty to give it a try. I think it's about time we start seeing deeper stories in games; the kind that aren't spoon-fed to you and tell you exactly how you should feel throughout.

Sounds really good I look forward to hearing more about this.
as for Persepolis read the 2 Graphic Novels instead it is seriously probably the best thing I've ever read. Although the film wasn't bad I don't think it was half as effective as the books and in order to appreciate the film you need to know what going through her mind psychologically.

So are they marketing off of controversy? because I don't see how this relates to most gamers and will make them go out and buy this game.
@bobthecatlol :
Why is everything about marketing. This is the game that obviously he wants to make. Thats why it exists. I dont suspect he cares how this relates to most gamers, hes just putting it out there.
As for iran, for such a divided country, a game about divisions sounds really interesting. Definitely on my radar. I'm confused about how this is a game though, unless you can change the flow of history?

I wonder how long it will take for Fox News to try to tear it apart.
SN: Funny Comment: I usually play as the good guys in games but I will play as the USA in this one.

I hope this does come out, especially if like they promise that it'll have many different views on what happened. Colour me intrigued even if it does end up as just a good idea.
