Developed by Ubisoft , the first Assassin’s Creed was released in 2007 and took players back in time to the Third Crusade in the late 12 th century. Since then, the mainline games have acted almost like they are virtual time machines transporting players back in time. Gamers are able to visit the Italian Renaissance, the Golden Age of Piracy, The French Revolution, Victorian London, Ancient Egypt, and Ancient Greece during momentous times in history. Even though the games are not historically accurate, they have been responsible for inspiring an interest in history for many gamers that they wouldn’t have otherwise had.

Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars isn’t a historical game in the sense that it transports the players back in time - although, the game was made in 1996 so it could be considered a modern-day historical piece. It is, however, a point-and-click adventure game that gives players a lot of historical insight into the Knights Temp


Battle for the Northern Way Honor Bound Family Matters and A Seer's Solace The Prodigal Prince and Rude Awakening A Cruel Destiny Birthrights and The Seas of Fate The Swan-Road Home and Unwelcome Settling Down and The Alliance


The Knights Templar, of course, are the main antagonists in the Assassin’s Creed series as they are in Broken Sword . Fans of that series that have a passing interest in the history of the Templars which this game delves very deeply into. Furthermore, it is suspected by fans that the game’s narrative was an influence on Dan Brown’s Davinci Code no

The nominations for the first ever edition of The Game Awards were unveiled this morning and include the standard set of genre-based categories, a fan category for most anticipated title of 2015 (which mostly includes delayed games) and as a bonus, some love for famous YouTube celebs and eSports teams to help spread the word and bring in the "hardcore" crowd for appro

What To Expect: The Ubisoft developers will show a demo for Assassin's Creed Unity - potentially the longer demo we saw at E3 2014 - focused on the main character Arno and will answer fan questions in a Q&A session.

The 2013 show, co-hosted by Joel McHale ( Community ) was more about the developers and awards, more about new announcements and loving the community. Despite a lot of awkward moments, last year's event was an improvement over years past but this year, Keighley is out. He and Spike (and owner Viacom) gracefully parted ways (apparently) and instead, Geoff Keighley is hosting a brand new, non-network-reliant game show, simply titled The Game Awards 2014 . And he's doing it with the backing of Microsoft, Nintendo, Sony and bevvy of top game publish


With the nominations coming before the year's end, we're faced with the usual issue of not all of 2014's titles being included (like Ubisoft's The Crew ) but at least they got in the most recent two-three weeks which includes the largest batch of high profile releases. The deadline for eligible entrants was games released by November 25th. On the Canadian Videogame Awards front, the date of nomination eligibility was much earlier and meant that some of the year's biggest titles ( Assassin's Creed Unity, Dragon Age: Inquisition, Far Cry 4, etc. ) didn't make the


We have no idea what's going on with the Spike VGX this year or even if there will be one. The annual celebrity-fueled, ad-hungry video games event was consistently chock full of controversy and disdain from the gamer community which is why last year host and producer Geoff Keighley helped re-brand the Spike Video Game Awards into the Spike VGX. It was a ratings success but still begged the question of whether it should contin


The Assassin's Creed series has featured many notable female characters, such as Evie Frye from Assassin's Creed Syndicate and Aya from Assassin's Creed Shadows news|https://Creedshadowgame.com/ Creed Origins , but none can match Kassandra, who is canon in the latest game in the series, Assassin's Creed Odyssey . Kassandra has proved to be the toughest female character in the series so far, being the great-granddaughter of King Leonidas of Sparta, who can wield a variety of weapons in the game, including swords, bows, spears, and axes. Kassandra can also perform brutal stealth kills, and she definitely does not let anything or anyone in the game intimidate


Sadie Adler is an outlaw and bounty hunter who joins the Van Der Linde gang in Red Dead Redemption 2 . Rockstar Games describes her as "a widow who is hell-bent on taking revenge upon those who killed her husband. Relentless and afraid of nothing and no one. The wrong woman to cross, but very loyal to those she loves. " Sadie definitely lives up to this reputation and proves to be a great fighter alongside Arthur throughout many of the game's most memorable missi


It's October, which means the biggest video games of the season are upon us. Call of Duty WWII , Star Wars Battlefront II , Middle-earth: Shadow of War , Super Mario Odyssey , and Assassin's Creed Origins are just a few of the many heavy hitters vying for the attention of consumers this holiday sea

To this day some fans wonder why there was never a sequel, but there actually was: Paper Mario may have used a 2D art style, but possesses much of the turn-based, RPG gameplay (it was even originally announced as Mario RPG 2 ).

To put it simply, O'Brien believes the best way to get a video game done is to get the film started at the publisher that owns the IP first, then try to shop it around to movie studios. That's what EA did with Need for Speed and it's what they are doing with Dead Spa


Despite a few successes peppered over the course of several decades, the general consensus is that video game movies are not only a risky proposition for studios, but most of them are lacking in quality. However, we might be in the midst of a changing of the guard, so to speak, as game developers take a more hands-on role in video game movie development (a la Marvel Comic
