Assassin's Creed 3 is going to be epic and there are several reasons for that. Since the first Assassin's Creed game no other game in the franchise had so many years in development; a total of 3 years according to Ubisoft. That was a smart move since the players were already getting a bit tired of the annual releases (just like with COD).
However the biggest reason why it is going to be great, aside from the epic proportions of the game, is Connor, our brand new Assassin. And according to Ubisoft's new trailer their new engine, Anvil Next, is what gels the whole experience together.
The trailer tells us a bit more about the Anvil Next and explains how it has allowed Ubisoft to radically improve

This game has had a rough start. From the beginning when the idea of a reboot was presented, both Ninja Theory (developers) and Capcom were sent to the firing range. The fans really didn't like the whole idea of a reboot and especially made a fuss over how the new Dante looked.
I was glad to see that Capcom didn't budge under pressure and the only thing that the complaints. Just to keep them happy the developers just tweaked how Dante looked (very slightly). But in my opinion a remake was way over due.
As more details and gameplay videos are released, more people are actually being convinced that this iteration could well be the best of the franchise. I like

Cloud gaming is a thing of the future. Developers and publishers alike widely accept this fact to be the truth. Even the rumors surrounding the next-gen consoles, PS4 and Xbox 720, suggest that they will be featuring similar cloud gaming services and that physical media is at the end of its life cycle.
Whether physical media has become obsolete or not is still left to be determined as I (amongst many others) would still prefer to have an actual copy of the game instead of just the digital version. I believe those without access super fast internet (if any) who share my sentiment.
Regardless of these minute details one thing is for sure, cloud gaming is definitely the future. Just recently Sony has acquired the cloud gaming service Gaikai for a lump sum of $380 million. SCE boss Andrew House mentioned that with this union will allow Sony to bring "unparalleled cloud entertainment experiences."
But it seems that a totally unexpected and quite revolutionary console will

Assassin's Creed 3 Story Info
In an unfortunate event for Ubisoft and fortunately for us, the story mode behind the Assassin's Creed 3 multiplayer was leaked. The leak happened from GameTrailers who uploaded the multiplayer trailer ahead of time.
As always it did not take long for them to rectify the error and they have since pulled it down. Seems they were not fast enough as some had actually been able to download the trailer off. Now there is a cat and mouse game going on between the uploaders and Ubisoft who are trying to ban all of the trailers. If you are lucky you can check out the trailer in the link below:

Xbox 720 Dev Kits Leaked

Just a few days back a person calling himself DaE leaked several pictures of the "supposed" development kit for the next-gen Xbox.The pictures first appeared on a forum for game developers where DaE attempted to sell the alleged development kit for $10,000. As expected no one actually paid any heed to this and labeled the whole event as another rumor and just another trying to create another hoax.
In an interesting turn of events Digital Foundry, a gaming tech site, has confirmed that these pictures are actually real. Digital Foundry has met with several developers

Another Edition of Assasin's Creed 3
There are A LOT of editions coming out for Assassin's Creed 3 as Ubisoft prepares to rake in the cash. We had already gone through all the Tier 1 Collector's Editions, Special Edition and PS3 bundles but it seems there was one more that we overlooked.

The Ubiworkshop Edition of Assassin's Creed 3 is ONLY available for pre-order and is supposed to give owners a better understanding of the franchise. The Ubiworkshop Edition was initially priced at $109.99 with a discounted price of $99.99 for those who ordered before
