Ubisoft wants more (and more) Assassin’s Creed. Do You?

 - January 26th, 2012
I love the Assassin’s Creed Franchise. Well, I fell in love with it after the second game, at any rate. Since then? There’s been a new Assassin’s Creed game every year and it seems that Ubisoft is only too happy to annualise the series. While some might feel that regular, annual iterations will only dilute the brand and led to gamer fatigue, Ubisoft boss Yves Guillemot believes otherwise.The regular releases, he says, are necessary to "satisfy the demand". ...

Though it really started with conqueror and Wolfenstein 3D, a couple of years back after the explosive success of games like Medal of Honour and Call of Duty the world became inundated with World War II themed games.
