We can never see enough of Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood, and lucky for us Ubisoft has released a brand-new multiplayer trailer straight from Comic-Con. If you’re not excited about the new multiplayer aspects of Assassin’s Creed, then maybe you should check out the previous multiplayer trailer from E3 that gives a fairly detailed walk-through of the “Wanted” game mode. If that’s not enough, then I suggest you look at what the single-player campaign has to offer. If you’re not a believer after that, then I’m pretty sure you never will be. But that’s ok, I forgive you.

I’m sure most of you who have been following our E3 coverage of Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood have already seen the Official E3 Trailer and Multiplayer Trailer, but that’s not everything Ubisoft has in store for you. They’ve also just released a single-player walkthrough video with details on the campaign and Ezio’s involvement in the ongoing struggle between the Brotherhood and the Templar Order. The campaign will also include a lot more involvement with horses this time around by playing more of a major role in free roaming and mission sequences. The video also reveals a few new additions to the combat system that reward the player for executing a more preemptive attack, as well as a few flashy new moves. Everything that this game has been showing has been getting me pretty excited for its impending release. November 16th here I come!

Excited about Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood? Yeah, me too. Well now you can get a glimpse of what all the fuss is about in this stunning new trailer and screenshots. For those who are unaware, this iteration of the Assassin’s Creed franchise returns with Ezio who is now in a deep power struggle with the Templar Order. This time, as a Master Assassin, Ezio must lead an entire Brotherhood to strike at the heart of his enemy in Rome.

The rumor mill is stirring yet again, and this time Mass Effect is in the mix. According to a recent job posting at the Electronic Arts website, BioWare is currently on the hunt for a new Multiplayer Programmer to “take existing single player user experiences and make them multiplayer safe”. What this means to their existing franchises are unclear, but tons of speculation is looking towards the possibility of Mass Effect 3 going the multiplayer route.

One of the highest acclaimed games of 2009 was Assassin’s Creed II, garnering numerous Game of the Year nominations and praise from critics across the board it was a mystery where the franchise would go next. Today Ubisoft answered with: MULTIPLAYER. It’s important to note that this is not Assassin’s Creed III, instead it’s more of a side development for the series. There is still single player in Brotherhood, but the focus is on Ezio (from AC2) controlling troops of assassins to take down the Templars. Read for yourself:

So you all remember how Crackdown was shipped with a Halo 3 Beta, right? Or maybe how ODST comes with an open invitation to the Halo: Reach multiplayer? Well Ubisoft are following suit, with a truly exceptional deal.

In an attempt to tease those looking forward to the beta, Bungie have detailed a new ability for the use of the Spartans and the Spart-esses.  The ‘Armour Lock’ power basically allows you to become temporarily invincible, but at a price. You will be unable to move around and shoot.
