One of the biggest shocks to come out of the Ubisoft offices in recent months was the news that the next Assassin’s Creed will feature an indepth multiplayer component. Now Assassin’s Creed has been one of my favourite single player titles and when I first heard that they were going to be adding multiplayer to the mix I rolled my …

I recently had the chance at E3 to play Driver: San Francisco with some of the developers to see what’s cracking in this rebirth of the old series. If you haven’t already read the preview, you can do so by clicking here. For those of you who were still interested in seeing how it all looks and works, I have …

While at E3 I managed to get some hands on time with Ubisoft’s upcoming fitness title for Kinect, Your Shape Fitness Evolved. When I first heard that Ubisoft were planning a fitness title for Kinect my initial thoughts were that they were simply cashing in on the phenomenal success of Wii Fit and it would simply be a carbon copy …

If you managed to catch Ubisoft’s Presentation at E3, you’d have noticed that they kicked it off with the rather beautiful Child of Eden, played without a controller by the games designer, Tetsuya Mizuguchi.

Ubisoft’s Press event at E3 didn’t quite go down as well as they’d hoped, with their standout titles appearing to be Assassin’s Creed : Brotherhood and Driver : San Francisco. I was a little distraught at the lack of information on Beyond good and Evil 2, one of my most anticipated games. One game they showed that may unfortunately get …

Man, what a weekend of awesome, awesome football – or soccer, if you prefer. While both are perfectly acceptable when referencing the beautiful game, purists believe the term “football” to be the only correct term – with many believing it’s an American term to help differentiate between proper football and that hand-egg stuff they play. They’re wrong. Soccer – originally …

We ran a Pure football competition in our forums recently, but the prizes went unclaimed! With that, and the incredible opening game between South Africa and Mexico in mind, we’re running the competition again – only this time we have more copies to give away, and it’s much easier to enter. We have 4 copies of the game on Xbox …
