The Tyranny of King Washington Trailer
Just in time for Assassin’s Creed Week, Ubisoft has released this trailer for The Tyranny of King Washington, their upcoming 3-part downloadable content.
This sounds genuinely insane. Apparently, this isn’t going to be an addition to the existing Assassin’s Creed 3. Instead, it’s going to be an entire alternate game, in which Connor never became an Assassin (and never even became Connor). He still goes by his Native American name, and as you can see at the end of the trailer, is dressed like a badass wolfman! This DLC will explore a ‘What If…’ scenario. What if…George Washington turned down the Presidency in order to rule America as a king? It’s a totally badass premise, and I’m actually really eager to start playing.
I don’t think a release date has been announced. But you can buy a Season Pass, which gives you 25% off the bulk price rather than paying for each chapter individually. Sounds like a damn good deal to me since I definitely want to play all three!
Besides, George Washington was a total tool in Assassin’s Creed 3. It’ll feel good to kill him…
The Ultimate Assassin’s Creed Song
This video sums up Assassin’s Creed 3 nicely. With some profanity.
I gotta say, the Tomahawk Chop is definitely as much fun as Smosh makes it out to be. That was a funny thing about Assassin’s Creed 3: despite being able to buy or build different small weapons, I never switched from the Assassin Tomahawk. That thing was just too badass to part with.
Assassin’s Creed Whale
I would play the hell out of this game. I think we need some kind of Ecco the Dolphin remake with more swords, or at the very least, some lasers attached to his friggin’ head.
Welcome to Assassin’s Creed Week!
Welcome to the first ever theme week at Henchman-4-Hire! For some reason, a lot of different aspects of my life became focused on the Assassin’s Creed video game franchise over the past few weeks, so I decided to try something awesome and new and introduce a blog theme week! We’re going to have a lot of Assassin’s Creed posts, jokes and even an Assassin’s Creed-themed List of Six on Wednesday! Also big this week will be a review of the three Assassin’s Creed graphic novels from Titan Books – which marks my first ever semi-professional comic review – as well as my long awaited review of Assassin’s Creed 3! This week is going to be a killer!
The views aren’t so bad either
I am not above making a few puns.
I’m very excited about the graphic novels. You guys have been reading my comic book reviews for months now, and I’d like to think I’m building a fanbase. But all those comics, or the video games and movies I’ve reviewed, were things I bought on my own and reviewed on my own. Now, for the first time, a professional publishing company has reached out to me to review some of their work! I’ve been recognized as a legitimate review blog! That’s pretty exciting. Look for the graphic novel reviews on Tuesday.
And then on Friday, I’ve got my review of Assassin’s Creed 3. It was my most anticipated video game of the year, and I waited until it came out for the PC before playing and reviewing it. I’m really excited for that review as well.
So stay tuned this week, keep coming back and check out all of the Assassin’s Creed fun!
And if you have no idea what the heck I’m talking about, join me after the jump for a primer on Assassin’s Creed!
I Have an Addiction to ‘Dumb Ways to Die’
The video that started it all is pretty great, and it’s spawning a lot of fun parodies! Here’s one that lines up nicely with my own interests.
The tune, the fun, the frivolity, it makes for a great video and for great parodies as well. And I’m just going to keep posting the good ones that I find. And you can’t stop me! There’s no rehab for this. There’s just me and my fix. This one was brought to us by Mega Steak Man.
