Concept work for "Assassin's Creed Duel", an unmade Ubisoft XBLA/PSN 2.5D fighter

I think the guy who runs All Games Beta is also on GAF--'Endless' something. I can't believe they can just rip off stuff from here without giving proper credit. Sucks man, but that's how it is nowadays.

Good job, Mama. Keep it up.

Good job finding all the information on this. It looks awful though. After Ubisoft saw this and realized that all the characters in the series either look exactly the same or are nobodies, they probably put it to bed.
 

Yeah, it's shameless, but they're all small flies. I've never heard of any of them. I clicked on the first link and at the bottom it does say "Thanks, NeoGAF", however that may have been edited in afterwards, and even then it's silly worded. "Thanks"?

I would buy it since I'm an Assassins Creed fan. But I would've loved to have pit Sam Fisher vs. Altair. Plus, as an XBLA and PSN game, I would give the $20 for something like this.

And people said PSAS had a bad roster.
This looks like the definition of uninteresting.
I'm going on the end that this doesn't exist. It was at most a pitch.

Good work as always, Mama Robotnik.

It's a cool concept, worth exploring in my opinion.

Its amazing how quickly some sites can grab a NeoGAF post and pretend that they did the research and made the discovery. Its barely been an hour and:

I like that they even use the information I cited from linkedin in their stories like they found it themselves. Of course there's not a single nod to NeoGAF or link to this post or anything. I'm used to it and all, but its still completely shameless.

Wow, even Gamestar, I expected better from them.

Who the fuck are these sites? Never heard of any of them.

Well, Gamestar is a major German computer magazine. The rest are mostly crud though.

Is it sad that I am excited just because it shows Ubisoft care about Beyong Good and Evil ?

Also, Ezio was fun on Soul Calibur....
Rabbid sucked on TMNT Smash Up .... but that must be because the game sucked =P

Yeah it wasn't there earlier.

This is the stupidest looking thing I have ever seen. The AC main characters are already generic as hell and then have them fight each other? Lol.

Good thing it wasn't made I guess.

Just noticed the other Ubi characters. Meh. Then why is it called AC Duel? So dumb.

Could have been Bushido Blade for a new generation. Finally a glimmer of something good out of the Creed series, but alas, just a glimmer.
 
Why don't you turn the text into an image and put a Neogaf watermark on it and on the images?

Too much hassle. When I find something, I'm happy for other sites to run with it, but I just think that I or NeoGAF being credited for the research is polite.

Who the fuck are these sites? Never heard of any of them.

They're an impromptu Wall of Shame of websites that browse GAF for their content and quickly repost it without citing the source. Its happened a lot with my discoveries in the past, unfortunately. Some websites have literally taken a large OP I've done for GAF, copied and pasted most of it, and claimed credit for the work.

I know its a fact of the industry and something I should be used to, but its still rude.
