Assassin’s Creed next installment is set in Victorian-era London: Reports

Yes it is almost official, Ubisoft exposed in its latest community livestream that Future Assassin’s Creed installments will focus more on modern timelines, reported SegmentNext. Darby McDevitt, one of the lead writers on the series, said that there’s plenty of inspiration to be derived from the modern timeline of Brotherhood’s town of Monteriggioni. He also mentioned that the initial plan with Assassin’s Creed: Unity was to include a little more modern day setting. “The thing with Unity was that it was a completely fresh game on a completely fresh generation. So creating any kind of modern day is a pretty huge ask. To create a city, for instance, or even part of a city, would require six months of work by many, many artists, designers, modellers. And then you’d need gameplay systems that ...

Shadow of Mordor Infographic

In case you were wondering, billions of virtual Uruks have been slayed to death in the Lord of The Rings based game Shadow of Mordor by its players. If you must know it is 5.65 billion to be precise. Warner Bros. Interactive come out with this infographic featuring the actions of all players across PC, Xbox One and PS4. The 5.65 billion Uruk kills include only those by players; fellow Uruks are responsible for another 1.3 billion kills, 2.8 million of which were bodyguards betraying their Warchief.   About more than 72 million players were victims of Uruks. A player death isn’t much of a deal, as in there in no penalty as such but there is a change in the mechanics of the game’s Nemesis system, causing Uruks to be promoted and become more powerful.

Open Letter from Jen-Hsun to Gamers On GeForce GTX 970

Over the last few weeks there has been a lot of buzz all across about the GTX 970 issues. NVIDIA yesterday published an open letter to all Gamers where Jen Hsun addresses the community about it. It is a positive move to see the GPU Giant take the issue in their stride. Here is the whole transcript from the letter. “Hey everyone, Some of you are disappointed that we didn’t clearly describe the segmented memory of GeForce GTX 970 when we launched it. I can see why, so let me address it. We invented a new memory architecture in Maxwell. This new capability was created so that reduced-configurations of Maxwell can have a larger framebuffer – i.e., so that GTX 970 is not limited to 3GB, and can have an additional 1GB. GTX 970 is a 4GB card. However, the upper 512MB of the additional 1GB i...

This 90’s League of Legends Is Absolutely Hilarious

Ever wondered how games that we play today would look like if they were advertised way back in the 90’s? I know it is pretty random but Rizenvisual, a video game parody YouTube channel has put together an insanely hilarious idea of what it might have been like. Assuming your Intel 486 PC is connected to the world wide web, it should take around 3,000 floppy disks and just over a few days to install League of Legends.   This video takes me back to the day I used to play 8-Bit Prince of Persia and Snake Logan on my faithful cathode-ray PC, which worked quite well till my brother decided to give the PC a bath.
