Assassin's Creed Slated for November Release
Gamespot reports that Ubisoft's action/stealth title Assassin's Creed now has a release window: November of this year. The game will be available on shelves for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, as well as the PC. "Set in 1191 AD at the height of the Third Crusade for the Holy Land, Assassin's Creed puts players in the silent shoes of Altair and gives them the opportunity "to shape events during this pivotal moment in history." Altair is tied to a group of ruthless assassins whose plan is to bring an end to the bitter struggle by striking out at both warring parties."
Being that the word Assassin comes to us from the Arabic term for "Hashish Eater", the image of the "crazy" stealthy Muslim killer has for a long time had a lot of influence on white european's deepest fears.
So people make a game that some people are sure to find disturbing. So what? GTA anyone?
