What is Your Favorite Assassin’s Creed Game?

Today we’re going to experiment with the first ever poll in the history of my blog! If this works, maybe I’ll do more! But for Assassin’s Creed Week, I want to know what your favorite Assassin’s Creed game is! Then tell us why in the comments!

I’m torn between Assassin’s Creed 3 and some of the Ezio games…

Maybe I should have asked which one is studlier

Eagle Vision? Meet Donut Vision

Found it online, not sure who draw it. But I definitely think it fights this week’s special theme!

Literal Assassin’s Creed Trailers

I have become a huge fan of Tobuscus’ Literal Trailers series. And he just so happens to have done two Assassin’s Creed Literal Trailers! How fortunate, considering this is Assassin’s Creed Week!

First up is the trailer for Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood, the first sequel to Assassin’s Creed II. In it, Ezio faces off against the Borgia clan, who control the Papacy in Rome.

Good times! Next up is a similar literal trailer for the next game, Assassin’s Creed: Revelations. This one is a bit more dark.

Why Tobuscus never made a Literal Trailer for Assassin’s Creed 3, I will never know.

Assassin’s Creed Memes!

6 New Historical Time Periods for Future Assassin’s Creed Games

Good video game franchises never die. No matter how final the ending might seem, no matter the status of the development company, any franchise that makes money is going to live on. Which is good news for us Assassin’s Creed fans! Even though Desmond’s story came to a pretty grim (and lame!) conclusion in Assassin’s Creed 3, I can’t imagine Ubisoft not giving us more games and more historical goodness in the years to come! Shall we begin the countdown to Assassin’s Creed 4?

As everybody knows, the Assassin’s Creed games all take place in the past, with richly detailed recreations of some ancient civilizations for your stabbing pleasure. First we visited Jerusalem during the Third Crusade, then Rome at the height of the Italian Renaissance. A then quick stop in Constantinople preceded a visit to the American colonies during the Revolution! The war between the heroic Assassins and the evil Templar has been waged for centuries all across the globe. Almost any era or historical event is up for grabs.

So where will we go next? Which historical era should we visit in the next Assasin’s Creed game? Especially if that game arrives on next generation consoles, with better graphics and processing power? I’m so glad you asked, because I just so happen to have six suggestions! Join me after the jump.
