Assassin’s Creed: Lineage short movie premiere
Gamer Limit —
As previously predicted, Assassin’s Creed 2’s Lineage premiered today on YouTube. While we’re not so surprised that Ubisoft are investing quite a bit of moolah on AC2’s marketing campaign, a mini live-action series is something else. For a 14-minute viral video, it’s pretty damn epic. It’s not going to win any Oscars, but as it is, there’s an impressive level of commitment shown for Ezio and the franchise.
Sneak inside for the official short movie. ...
First Assassin's Creed Lineage Short Hits Internet [Clips]
Kotaku —
Everyone always complains about game movie adaptations — but we are so not complaining about this. More please. This is the first in a series of short movies that are being developed by Hybride Technologies, the visual effects studio behind 300 and Sin City, which Ubisoft bought last year for just this sort of project. Thanks Svenohair!

First Assassin's Creed: Lineage short is... good!?
Destructoid —
I think we can all agree that videogame movies are, for the most, junk. So when Ubisoft decided to matters into its own hands, working with Hybride Studios for a series of Assassin's Creed shorts, I was... skeptical. But the results, as you can see in this first of the three Assassin's Creed: Lineage episodes, are surprisingly decent. Not Hollywood blockbuster decent. More along the lines of those weird television adaptations of Shakespeare you'd find randomly only PBS -- decent acting with modest production values. Oh, and with special effects by the folks who worked on 300 and Sin ...
First Assassin's Creed: Lineage episode is surprisingly great
Joystiq —
We weren't surprised when the first of three episodes in the Assassin's Creed: Lineage miniseries, created by Hybride Studios, exceeded our expectations. These folks did the effects for 300 and Sin City -- so of course we knew it would look great. Our surprise simply came ...
Assassin's Creed Lineage released. Awesome.
Classy Gamer —
Awesome is really the only word to describe the short Assassin's creed movie Ubisoft released today. Hybride managed to bring the Assassin's Creed 2 universe to life wuth a quality very similar to theatrical movies. I can only hope that they decide to make one sooner or later, but looking at the effort put into this series of shorts, I'd say we can definitely wait for an announcement about that sooner or later. The only flaw, unfortunately, is the mispronunciation of some italian words and names (like "Stefano" with the accent on the "a" instead of the correct one on the "e"). Since ...
Two Assassin's Creed movies couldn't be more different
Fidgit Atom Feed —
Ubisoft's series of short films promoting Assassin's Creed 2 has begun. Above is the first episode in Assassin's Creed: Lineage. It's a four minute short that takes fifteen minutes to watch because of all the slow motion. Be sure to stick around for the ending if you want to see the relevance to the actual game. Protip: the main character's name in Assassin's Creed 2 is Enzio.
To me, the far more interesting bit of Assassin's Creed short filmmaking is this teaser for an animated short based on the original games. It starts out looking like a Photoshop ...
Trailer Tuesday: Pre-Halloween edition

What we're rockin: Overload edition | Main October 27, 2009 Trailer Tuesday: Pre-Halloween edition Welcome to the pre-Halloween edition of Trailer Tuesday. Since Halloween is my favorite holiday--well, second-favorite...ok, top five--I've decided to make this entry slightly Halloween flavored. I've grabbed my five favorite trailers that came out last week, and give them each a ranking based on how scary the trailers are. Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time launches today, so here's a trailer introducing some of the game's featured weapons. Unless you're a bad guy, there's nothing really to fear in this trailer. OK, that weird ...

[image] We may not get Assassin’s Creed 2 on PC for a few months yet, due to spurious excuses to pretend it’s not about dodging piracy and not giving a monkey’s about the IBM compatible, but there’s no reason we can’t enjoy the promotional run-up. For instance, 15 minutes of live-action footage of a dude being a 15th century Italian assassin, by way of a prequel to the game… From my limited time with the 360 version of the game – some of my impressions of which are over on Eurogamer ...

I’m surprised this didn’t get posted on here yet. Anyway, Lineage is a prequel to the upcoming game Assassin’s Creed II, following the story behind Ezio’s (the main character of ACII) father, Giovanni Auditiore de Firenze. The plot is as follows (from Wikipedia):
Giovanni is an assassin living during the Renaissance in 15th century Italy. At this dawn of a new era, a conspiracy is being plotted by one corrupted family to overthrow the powerful Medici family and destroy an unified Italy. As an assassin, Giovanni must face this threat and bring justice. ...

Assassin's Creed News Header Back at E3, I heard various Ubisoft people talk all about how awesome they are and how great their CG is. I was initially skeptical, but after seeing the entire Assassin’s Creed Lineage series I’m convinced of their greatness. Ubisoft has CG on par with the likes of the new Star Wars movies. Not in the quality of the movie, but the quality of the CG. I honestly couldn’t tell the difference between what was there, and ...
