VG247 was tipped off about the LinkedIn profile of a 3D animator at Ubisoft Montreal which listed an unnamed Assassin's Creed title with a date of 2010 next to it. The profile of Michael Donnell, since removed from the professional social networking site, listed experience on 2008's Prince of Persia as well as last year's iteration of Assassin's Creed. In addition, it makes reference to an oft-rumored PS3 version of Splinter Cell: Conviction.
It's certainly possible for Ubisoft to get another Templar-slaying title to market this year. The recent revelation that a third Assassin's Creed would again star Ezio and take place in Rome would suggest that a lot of the heavy lifting may have already been done with the last title. Whether quality might suffer is a different matter entirely, but I'm sure they're keeping a close eye on this, being one of Ubisoft's flagship properties.
Are you guys ready to run across rooftops and stab your hand through people's heads again?

That said, I'd imagine this is a spinoff title, most likely an iPad game.
I love the concept of Assassin's Creed, I just wish the games weren't so painful to play.
Also, Conviction PS3? - win. It's hardly surprising though, when Microshaft says "exclusive" we all know that means TIMED exclusive.

don't really care if UBI release another full AC game, i'll keep playing them until i stop enjoying them.
as a side note i've been playing AC2 for a week or so now, and i totally disagree with the JS review. in fact it's clearly such a personal opinion that i find it ludicrous that so many on this site share it, so i now treat anyone who regurgitates that opinion as a total sheep. i respect the fact that some people won't like any given game, but you only have to look at metacritic to see why i'm suspicious of haters - out of 81 reviews, only 3 gave the game less than 80% so for 80% of dtoid commenters to now think AC2 sucked is ridiculous.
as for people hating a series so much that it hurts them to see sequels...you're crying like infants, how the fuck is that even affecting you? ubisoft controls where you spend your money?? Yuck. pffft.
RAEG!!!!!
Interesting, my feelings were the exact opposite. I thought the combat controls felt very natural (even if the AI was crap), but I didn't think the climbing/running was all that well executed. I never understood why I had to hold down 3 buttons to run (left analog, right trigger, A button), yet the same button seemed to be used to do a million different things. The game often assumed that I wanted to jump off of a 4 story building, when all I was doing was holding down the same buttons I used to run. I would have much preferred a dedicated jump button instead of auto-jumping.
I'm doing it.
Just for you.
Please, no more of this.
Love, Cadtalfryn
PS. A Far Cry 3 would be cool, thanks.
Please don't make AC into the new Madden/Fifa/NHL, but in case you actually do, at least use a different excuse to poor sales than "ZOMG Piracy".
Yours truly (not really)
EdgyDude.
I'm always ready for that.
Boo. Hiss.
Not to mention, given Ubisoft's track record with AC2, they're probably chomping at the bit to half-develop the next game, charge 60 bucks for it, then sell you the rest of it for 5 bucks a chapter.
