I think Microsoft are trying to make the 360 version of AC2 look especially appealing since, despite the PS3's small userbase in the 2007 holiday season, the first still managed to sell gangbusters on the Playstation platform (I suppose since action adventure/platform titles seem to have some deep-seated connection with the PS family; certainly the Uncharted franchise sells very well and of course the most recent Tomb Raider sold better on the PS3, despite the 360 adverts for it on TV).

Hopefully Sony's exclusive advertising deal with Ubisoft for AC2 will pay off. I wonder if they'll slyly stick in a plug for the PSP title Bloodlines at the end of the PS3 ad, too...

I think this has nothing to do with Microsoft and everything to do with Ubisoft trying to increase incentives for people to purchase their game new and cut out the second-hand market and limit pirated copies.

God, embarrassing, I'd forgotten for a moment SCC is also an Ubisoft project. So yeah, you're probably right.

Yeah, Jagged. I got it Friday night from Ubi. I read it a few times and was like 'Ok, I don't see jack about a demo.' An awesome game so far.

I tell you this - I created a thread about being BROKE this November. With MW2, SMBW, L4D2 and this? Wow.

Did you add me yet on LIVE? PM me your gamertag.

Is the religious propaganda part of the package or the guy taking the photos supplied it?
