Another 'Big Assassin's Creed game' confirmed for 2011

  i get why there putting one out every year.  AC is one of ubisofts only reliable moneymakers NOT aimed at socer moms but maybe that's because its the only game they actually release anymore. And all milking it is going to do is kill the series like guitar hero and tony hawk.

NOOOoooo.... :(

It better be Assassins Creed 3. Thats all I'm waiting for.

Hopefully AC3. Assassins Creed is pretty much the only game I buy from Ubisoft these days so you are probably right about it being the only moneymaker they have. I just hope they actually end the series as a trilogy as announced when the first game came out rather than grind it into worthlessness 

I do love stabbing dudes in the face though.

They say 'big' but I'd guess it'll be another PSP release.

If it's as good as Brotherhood, then I'm all for it. 

Assassin's Creed Franchise. 
Prince of Persia Franchise. 
Ghost Recon Franchise. 
Splinter Cell Franchise. 
Rainbow Six Franchise. 
Raving Rabbids! 
 
Ubisoft are probably on of my favourite developers.

Pulling a L4D2?
 
Well, so far they didn't disappoint yet.
Bring it on.

Great. Another series going the annualized sequel route. I'm all for it as long as they know when to pull the plug.

Slow down
Games need breaks to still give a impact when released

Less time until more face/neck stabbing is fine by me.  I'd just hope it's not another Ezio game and there is animus stuff in it.

No way they could deliver a as high-quality release in 1 year's time. Probably just another PSP/DS game that slightly advances the plot.
 
Although they DO, use the same animations and only add a few moves/weapons from time to time, they do spend much more time researching and building the city.

I'm guessing this will be a handheld game. I'll be surprised and maybe a little worried if it's AC3, would be concerned it was rushed! But I doubt it will be they should be aiming for something incredible with AC3.

It should be a lot easier to keep AC fresh though.  There's a near limitless supply of rich and interesting history for them to use.  Even if the mechanics remain largely the same, a game set in Victorian England will feel very different to a game set during the Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire (a scenario which was practically handwritten for being an AC game), or during the Raj in India, etc. etc.

I guess i'll be playing Brotherhood when this one hits the stores. lol  I need a cooldown period, as as high quality as AC games are, they are painfully repetitive.   "

As long as it is filled with more Subject 16 and crazy backstory stuff, I'm all for it. I need to get Brotherhood.  
Is Assassin's Creed on the PSP worth getting? Does it have more backstory stuff you can't get on the console releases? 
 
I love the universe of Assassin's Creed, if you can't tell. 

i love Assassin's Creed but I DONT WANT AC3 ANYTIME BEFORE 2012 
 
give it a rest like you promised, ubisoft !

I'm with you there - I completed AC2 just like a month before AC: B was released. Wouldn't be surprised if it takes me just as long to finally get into Brotherhood =P "

As long as its a new city and they get rid of that dumbass assisin costume Im game.

You're going to summon Ubisoft?

I am expecting a PSP game tbh.

Unless it's AC3 having been in development since AC2 alongside Brotherhood, then no fucking thanks Ubisoft. You won me over with 2 (1 was a nightmare of boredom and repetition) and I'm playing Brotherhood now, directly after finishing 2. When I finish Brotherhood, I'm not going to want as much as to even hear the words Assassin's Creed for at least two years.

Assassin's Creed 3DS

Well they already 'pulled a L4D2' with Brotherhood in the first place. "

As long as it's good I'm fine with it.
Maybe it's a little fast paced but hey, if I'm burnt out on it, I'll just wait a while to play it (crazy I know).
 
 
(...also I'm inclined to agree with the PSP and 3DS ideas - or maybe... iPhone?)

Just curious, when  we say "pull a L4D2" do we mean: It gets announced, everyone thinks it's bullshit, and then the game comes out and is awesome and most people forget about how bullshitty it seemed when it was announced?  Or was that just me? "

This. The outfit looks badass and all, but I'm really starting to wish I could play as a regularly dressed Ezio, it would feel a lot less clunky. "

GANGSTAHOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cool. 

Short development time doesn't have to equal a bad game. A lot of the first game's development time was spent making the engine, and a lot of the second's development time was spent fixing the first game's plethora of mechanical and structural problems -- now that they've got an engine and a damn solid formula, I don't see why they'd need more than one year for each installment.

I'm not saying they should keep making one a year forever, obviously, but until the formula starts feeling old and/or another game raises the bar for open-world action-platformers, all each new installment needs is a fresh setting and a couple of minor mechanical additions and refinements.

And so it begins...

I have my issues with Brotherhood, and I think they could do well by giving it some more time before releasing a new one.

I say give ppl what they want. Assassin's creed brotherhood turned out to be one of my favorite games and if they can continue that tradition, they should continue. I didn't want to wait a few years to find out what happens next with their cliffhangers.
