Assassin's Creed 2, Splinter Cell Due in Next Year; Ubisoft Delays I Am Alive
by Chris Faylor, Jan 22, 2009 7:06pm PSTUbisoft today revealed that Assassin's Creed 2, Splinter Cell Conviction and a new Ghost Recon game, among others, will be released across its next fiscal year, which spans April 1, 2009 through March 31, 2010.
Though the company only yesterday said that Darkworks' first-person survival game I Am Alive would arrive in March, the game has been delayed, with Ubisoft noting that it "will require further development time and will now bolster the line-up for 2009-10."
Overall, 2009-10 will see Ubisoft deliver 7 titles in existing game franchises, launch 3 new brands (including I Am Alive), release 4 license-based tie-ins (including James Cameron's Avatar and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) and provide additional entries in the Petz, Imagine, My Coach and PlayZone casual game series.

I dunno, I just think that the idea of Hobo Fisher a fighting system and no gadgets is a major turnoff for me. That's what I loved about Chaos Theory so much. You're basically a ninja with all manner of tools to neutralize your opponents.

I picked up Assassin's Creed for $30 the other day. it's on the bottom of my holiday stack of things to play, but I'm looking forward to it.
I'm impressed.
