Rumor: Assassin's Creed 3 takes place during American Revolution, stars Native American [update] (Joystiq)

Mar 1st 2012 8:44AM @Chareth Cutestory

Yeah, I was just about to note the similarities betwen the Mason symbol ( http://www.masoncode.com/sqcum.gif ) and the Assassin symbol ( http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20101211024124/assassinscreed/images/thumb/e/ee/AssassinLogo.png/398px-AssassinLogo.png )



....then I found this: http://multiplayerblog.mtv.com/2010/12/07/assassins-creed-3-setting-revealed-in-brotherhood/

Pros get into the nitty gritty of Street Fighter x Tekken (Joystiq)

Jun 25th 2011 4:52PM @EA575 I dunno, SFIV had the South Africa stage where playable characters would appear in the background in landing planes.

But I'll yield the point here in that on the whole, you're correct.

Penny Arcade's 'New Kid' strip to be adapted to film by Paramount (Joystiq)

Please, Mr. Buckley, calm down. I'm sure Dreamworks or someone will pick up on Ctrl-Alt-Delete eventually.

New voice for Harley Quinn in Batman: Arkham City (Joystiq)

May 21st 2011 9:02AM @Dark Lurker I could hear a difference, but it was actually kinda refreshing.

Don't get me wrong, I grew up on Batman:TAS, and Harley Quinn's voice has always sounded the same in my head (as with the Joker and Batman himself), but I like the very subtle differences that Ms. Strong seems to be bringing to the voice.

It has less of that gum-smacking, I-want-to-punch-your-face faux-Jersey-accent thing going on.

Dino D-Day available now on Steam for $20 (Joystiq)

Apr 9th 2011 8:44PM I don't understand the justification for charging $20 for this.

It looks like one of the numerous poorly-made Counter-Strike "mods" that tweak a model here and there.

It's sad -- almost all Source engine mods come out looking like slight variants on Counter-Strike. There are a few exceptions (like Dystopia), but it all starts to feel even more "samey" than the numerous Modern Warfare ripoffs.

El Shaddai director explains the inexplicable game (Joystiq)

Sep 28th 2010 1:08PM > Biblical themes

Gaaaah.

That's the third time. You *must* be trolling by now.

The Book of Enoch is no more a part of the Bible than, say, the Epic of Gilgamesh is.

Preview: Portal 2 (Joystiq)

Jun 17th 2010 8:17AM we *are* just talking about voices, not words, right?

One more Nier trailer to stare at (Joystiq)

Apr 15th 2010 12:29PM Floating sentient books?

"Forbidden pages?"

Myst prequel. I'm calling it now.

Vlad, why don't you post something related to gaming instead of some site you're desperately pimping?

Oh, right, it wouldn't be like Joystiq to do so.

If you're ever at Kotaku, look me up.
