Assassin's Creed III breaks Ubisoft's preorder records

 mrsniper83 Really, where and how is that possible?

 drknessfeeds Have you seen the Conor Statue, it looks amazing

 According to the devs they said the game will be 1.5X larger in area and have a longer story. Also PS3 players get an extended story line at launch.

 Lordcrabfood Me too, the series got stale with Brotherhood.

 ACWH  Lordcrabfood

 I wouldn't even consider Brotherhood and Revelations part of the series

 NTenseify  Why not?

 They were obviously rushed and quick cash cows for Ubisoft and offerring nothing major to Desmond's story that part 3 won't be able to follow up on. I picked up on this and passed on these games and GameSpot's story so far special allowed me to unravel Etzio's story anyway

 NTenseify I can't speak for Assassin's Creed: Revelations because I never played it. But I liked Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood. True, the story wasn't that great and it didn't add anything to Desmond's story. But it was still fun. The first time I saw Desmond kill Lucy, I was shocked.

Why would you engage in activities that bore you? That's messed up man...

 NTenseify

 In order to find out if you are bored by something, you have to first experience it, fool.

 Lordcrabfood

 Your comment implied that you will be playing part 3, even though you experienced the other parts and were "bored to tears" by them. Therefore my question is why would you continue to engage in said activities after the first part failed to gain your interest? Sorry I was not more ellaborate and I eagerly await your response......

 NTenseify

 I implied no such thing, any ambiguity is due to your poor reading comprehension.  My advice is to read what is wriiten and not assume as you just end up looking stupid. 

 Lordcrabfood

 "I don't think this will be any different" - going back to what you said earlier, how can you "assume" it won't be any different if you have no intention of experiencing it?

 NTenseify

 That does not mean I intended on playing it and by the way I will not be, the gameplay videos I have seen has shown it will be same old boring gameplay, simply wrapped a little differently.  I have experienced all of these games previously, Ubisoft will not change the game too much as it will alienate its fan base, quite simple really.

 NTenseify

 Oh, and to follow up on your assume question. It is very easy to assume when precidents have been previously set and actual evidence of the gameplay in question exisits.  It is certainly alot easier to assume in this manner rather then from one line of text.  You can twist and contort my words all you want so they form some vague argumnent, however anyone that knows anything about the AC series knows pretty much what to expect, i.e. mind numbing boredom in my case.  Each installment filled me with instant boredom so I will be passing on this one.  Clear are we?

 Lordcrabfood

 You're right it's fanbase does want more of the same because they believe the gameplay and story is just that good. I'm sorry to hear you're not one of them but there will be plenty of time for cynicism later when part 5 or 6 comes out and Ubisoft decide try try something new and butcher the series, as is the case with many series like Resident Evil. For now, I think we will just enjoy what we have. I'm not trying to argue, just trying to understand your unique point of view and I think it's pretty clear now, enjoy your other gaming endevours lol

 Lordcrabfood

 yes, the cultural aspect in the game is not meant for the every day video gamer. I suggest you fight your boredom with WOW, COD and such. Good luck to your future video game experiences.

 sirscarecrow

 Lol, yeah ok, sorry to hear you like mediocre games, good luck to you.  Oh and the COD comment is so ridiculous, I hate those games more then this, grow up and stop using tired sterotypes, that often have litttle relevance, if any at all.

 jamyskis  It still escapes me that people like you exist. Live a little, enjoy things. Not so hard. You just play--see the fun in it and enjoy. Smile once in a bit too is not so bad.

 TheSnowmanSaint  It escapes us all that you cant handle other opinions and love opening your wallet without even know what you get.

 DarthLod  If you have kept up with the series, then you should know at least story wise what to expect and that is what I am looking forward to. So yeah, I do know what to expect in that sense, a good story.

 DarthLod  TheSnowmanSaint You're a native american assassin during the American Revolution and you get to slaughter red coats. What more do you need to know?

 TheSnowmanSaint  jamyskis lol so pre order a game is living a little?lol ridiculous this game was already having pre orders almost a year now and you must be one of the stupid fucks i hope the game sucks for people like you learn once and for all 

 Barrakas21  Why do you care if people want to play this game or not?

 96augment you dont make anysense where did i say that?lol im not gonna take the bate so you can go fuck yourself i am in no mood for trolling. 

 Barrakas21 You said that you want this game to suck. You're also upset for the high amount of preorders this game has. Generally, when someone preorders a game, there's a small chance that they might actually want to play it. From your comment, It seems that you're annoyed that so many people like and want to play this game. So, that's where my comment came from.

 jamyskis how can we trust ubi's claim????? may be all this is part of their marketing strategy...

 jamyskis And that's why these greedy developers keep doing the things they do. Because people let it happen and open their wallets wide. I refuse it all.

 DarthLod  jamyskis Typical gamespot cry baby crying about every little thing in gaming today. You guys are like a cancer.

 Doobsac  DarthLod  jamyskis Whereas you are just an idiot. Only a fool pre-orders in  this day and age after all the times consumers have been stung in the past, even an idiot would have more sense than you.

 ACWH  Doobsac  DarthLod  jamyskis I've only preordered two games, ever. Those two being Skyrim and AC3. I've had plenty opportunities to pre-order other games, but I didn't because I can usually tell if a game will flop or be successful. People complaining about other's pre-ordering games need to just lay off. Let people do what they want. It's their money so don't tell them how to spend it.  And usually gamestop has specials going on such as 30% more trade-in value towards a pre-order. So why the hell not? Guess I'm just a fool though, hahaha. Who cares.
