Assassin's Creed |
Speaking of hope-giving product listings from GameStop, there's an even more interesting one that came to light this week. You know Assassin's Creed, Ubisoft's next-generation action project for the PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, right? But I wonder if you know Assassin's Creed for the
Nintendo DS!... Oh, don't worry, neither do we. Or anyone else from the public sector, apparently, besides
GameStop - who have a very firm listing of this title on their website.
The entry was reported by
Yahoo! Games yesterday, who also tried to get in touch with Ubi for a clarification, though no company representatives answered their inquisition at that time. However, considering that GameStop went through the trouble of adding a price ($29.99), release date (September 25, 2007), and even a mash-up cover image, they must know something we don't...
If we were to indulge this rumour and imagine how a DS version might play like, we would only have to think about the 2D versions of another game that plays a lot like Assassin's Creed. That, of course, would be Prince of Persia, which has long since proven that
a flat version is fine, too. And it will do so again this summer, when Ubisoft will release
Prince of Persia Classic as an Xbox Live Arcade remake of Jordan Mechner's original game from 1989. If that's what a 2D jump'n'run looks like these days, I for one wouldn't mind seeing Assassin's Creed adapted for the DS. Not one bit!
