Yeah, rifle replacing the crossbow probably. Other than that, I doubt much.

Well, this is interesting. A Best Buy worker just emailed us two images snapped from their employee news section. One shows that Ubisoft will be unveiling Assassin's Creed III on March 5, and that there'll be pre-order bonuses to be had. Whatever.

The other is a shot of what they say is the game's promotional art. Featuring what may well be Assassin's Creed III's star.

If this is legitimate, and remember, this is completely unconfirmed, it appears that the chatter placing the third game in the series in the American Revolution is spot-on. In the background is the original Continental flag, the Assassin is wearing an 18th-century military jacket and from his weaponry, jewellery and resemblance to actor Wes Studi he appears to be Native American. Or, since you'd expect he's still part of hero Desmond's bloodline, half-Native American. Especially when you consider that our source tells us that, out of shot, the Assassin is also carrying a tomahawk.

That is so unbelievable. No one, in America, ever dressed like that...ever. Those Ubi folks up in Montreal should know this. Not to mention, the artistic style of being stenciled is very out of character.

Don't worry, they will just rush the game out buggy and unfinished to meet the dead line as game devs often do

one more thing. Ubisoft Montreal is the largest dev team in the industry (250 people) so they can do the workload that would normally take 2 years a lot quicker. Ubisoft is not trying to turn it into Madden!

Im pretty sure assassins creed was never meant to be realistic. Very few people could scale walls like that, or jump into a pile of hay from 1000 feet up and live.

Any event, I think that looks kinda badass.

That's more like it but that hood still looks out of place in the American Revolution.

The hood is pretty symbolic of the assassins. It probably wasnt much of a style in the other eras as well. It may not be historically accurate. But I think its a nice look and should stay in the series.

Uh, a bow? I'm pretty sure 90% of the Revolutionary War was fought with muskets. That should be a musket straped to his back, not a bow.

It doesnt matter what weapons the new assassin uses. Just because they used muskets back then, doesnt mean the assassin has to follow suit. He uses what he finds best. Youre trying to make this more realistic than what it is supposed to be.

Ill take a bow over the musket. It's quiet, and more accurate than a musket. I believe in the musket line battles, 1/6 shots would hit somebody.
