Here's a breath of fresh air: A single-player competition.
As revealed at Ubisoft's website , the first single-player event for Assassin's Creed III has begun. It's called "Leave No Witnesses," and you must kill as many enemies as possible when playing the campaign. Top scorers will nab a Season Pass, which is worth $30.
If you're already done with the story, you can replay the game and do all the side quests if you want to participate in the event. In addition to top scorers on each platform (PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC) getting that DLC Season Pass, Ubisoft will also hand out a Pass to one random competitor. If you're interested, you can go here and sign up; if not, at least it's refreshing to know that some competitions out there don't require us to be online. Maybe more publishers will try this type of thing in the future.
We're also hoping future events will be a bit more imaginative. Kill everything in sight isn't exactly the "assassin's creed," now is it?
Cool.
GameFly finally shipped me out AC3 yesterday woo hoo!
I may do a user-review given the time.
I also see Amazon has AC Revelations (PC Download) for $10…… hmmmm let's see what Steam does at 10am. I've been wanting to try an AC game at ultra high-res and 60 fps.
Hooray for single player anything!
This is great! I was playing AC3 the other night and noticed a little pop up saying I was in the top 50% for something. Felt pretty chuffed.
Top 50 percent for using continues?
=p
The first week of the release had me as #4 best assassin in the world. I may actually do this, for the season pass. I don't really think a season pass is worth the $ because there are things i may want and things i don't. So seperate DLC lets me choose. Anyway good luck to anyone participating!
