Banzaii - The blog of online games and games of Jorge Mediavilla

This Friday I was in the presentation of Ubisoft, the Hard Days, Madrid. I had the chance to see Assassin's Creed 2, a game that I lost insurance, the new Splinter Cell, Red Steel 2 and some others, but certainly the most impressive was watching Avatar on a television compatible 3D and enjoy the 3D in all its fullness.

After get the "Ray-ban" started to hallucinate, first with a ship approaches the planet Pandora and then clean shot against the beasts of a planet that does not really know if it is a real danger or Eden.

Avatar is the film that will break new ground in mid-December and the game promises to be no typical conversion "Guarrera" from the movie, but find it hard because all video game publishers have tried to sell crap games taking advantage of the marketing of movies and now fight it is complicated. Without going any further it just happened with Terminator Salvation and Ubisoft is not blameless in this regard: not go back too ... I remember Beowulf

Avatar The game will come a bit before the movie, on October 2, and can be played as a game "normal". So to be promoted, but its graphic engine, which the guys from Ubisoft has been in development 3 years (which was used by the last Far Cry), will switch to 3D mode at any time to enjoy it even need to renew our television and buy a 3D Ready.

It is unfortunate that the 3D effect, majestic, can not be seen in screenshots or videos, so if you have occasion to see him somewhere, do not hesitate to try it. Is the next revolution in video games.

Otherwise little more I can tell you not to know. "Assassins" rather than correct, a "must have" with juicy news as the economy system, Splinter Cell is tumbling even surprised us with some new features like tagging enemies and little more than comment on Red Steel 2, which have good cell-shading graphics and take full advantage of the Wii Motion Plus.

The other day I thought what development studies most talented, those who have earned fame with every game and still maintain that over the years, something that is not easy, and seeking common denominators among them. Except Ubisoft Montreal, which is the business, none of ellostiene a load of games a year, but take your time to make their games and few have surrendered to the charms of Wii. This is my top:

1. Bethesda for Oblivion and Fallout series. Ten.
2. Starbreeze their bestial Riddick Xbox game and the sequel being prepared.
3. Ubisoft Studio Montrea l, Splinter Cell, Prince of Persia, Far Cry and Assassin's Creed and many others. The Canadian study is the soul of Ubisoft.
4. Bioware for Star Wars KOTOR, Mass Effect, Neverwinter Nights ... Hopefully your purchase by EA does not mean its demise.
5. Valve, for everything. Gabe Newell and his boys are legendary.
6. Team Ico for innovation and originality Shadow of the Colossus and the game prepared, of which they know next to nothing, but already in the top of my preferences.
7. Rockstar. Take Two's soul by his irreverence, humor and performing decidedly adult games. GTA IV has returned to sell like hotcakes. Great.

Incluiríais sure any more to the list

Update: By popular demand also feature SEGA AM2 Blizzard. I refuse to include ID after what little I liked Doom III and LucasArts after The Force Unleashed and Fracture

If you ask as many everyday is a video game product manager in Spain, the last article of Alberto Tables, Ubisoft, the blog of experts is very illustrative. In four paragraphs shelled us as he gets the information from the plant and what it has done to sell millions of Ghost Recon, Splinter Cell and Prince of Persia. Assasins Creed is now with and seems pretty excited.

Before Ubisoft unveil the details of games like Assassin's Creed this evening in Paris, I invite you to see the exclusive launch just on Yahoo! Games Splinter Cell Conviction. In particular you will see pictures of the new lighting system, manipulation of objects, some other stunning picture quality and some of the creators of the game. Also there are 5 exclusive interviews also various video game creators.

We finally decided to innovate in the series, leading infiltration into Assassin's Creed, which means that infiltrate is no longer a matter of finding a shadow to hide, but rather look for a group that confused or perform an action Stage (all objects in the scene can be manipulated) to distract the police.
