Leaked Assassin's Creed 3 Screenshots Show American Revolution

An anonymous reader writes "After three years, Ubisoft is finally finishing the newest installment of their Templars vs. Assassins series, set during the American Revolution. PC Magazine reports that 'If the cover art is any indicator, the new Assassin is pals with George Washington, Paul Revere, Ben Franklin, and the other leading American revolutionaries of the day.' A team of developers at Ubisoft reportedly dedicated a full three-year development cycle to re-examining every element in the franchise to improve the game — although it could've taken even longer."

"US Patriotism" -- Be careful what you wish for by erroneus · 2012-03-02 11:18 · Score: -1, Offtopic

I have little doubt that the flag-waving "patriotism" the government and media was pushing out to the public convincing everyone that the reason we were fighting wars in Afghanistan and Iraq was "for freedom" and because "they hate our freedom" will come back to bite them in the ass the more people realize that the reason the American revolutionary war was fought was precisely because of the kind of crap the US government is currently pushing on its people.
There's more to patriotism than saluting a flag.
