Assassin's Creed III announced and dated

 

Ubisoft officially announced Assassin's Creed III and will be released on October 30, 2012. It's no surprise that yet another Assassin's Creed title is on the way, but what's interesting is that this title has been in production for three years now. It was revealed during an ongoing conference call where Ubisoft chief Yves Guillemot made the announcement.

If Assassin's Creed III has indeed been in production for three years, I'm guessing they will be bringing something completely new to the table.

No further details yet, but rumors suggest the setting will be during the American Revolution.

Assassin's Creed III will be out for Playstation 3, Xbox 360, PC, and possibly the Wii U.

Today is either Happy Single's Appreciation/Valentines Day, Twisted Metal Day, or Mass Effect 3 demo day! That's right, Mass Effect 3's single player demo is now out first on Xbox Live. PS3 and PC will have the demo in a few hours so patience guys, just a few more hours until we try that sweet tech blade and many more!

Just as Bioware promised, the Mass Effect 3 demo will include two single player missions, then a taste of  multiplayer coop which will be released to all players on February 17. For people with the early multiplayer access(via Battlefield 3, etc), you can go and try it out right now together with the single player.

I've been trying to download the demo on my Xbox 360 but I keep getting "Can't download this" error right when  I start it. My guess is millions of fans are trying to download the exact same thing, so I'll try again in a few hours.
