News: New Assassins Creed game to bring about graphical equality

Game developer Ubisoft has admitted to IGN that the PlayStation 3 version of Assassin’s Creed II wasn’t up to the same graphical standard as the Xbox 360 version and stated that the latest title from this popular series will not see a repeat of this mistake.

In an interview with IGN Phillipe Bergeron, level design content director of Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood, stated that the new game is on the same graphical level and in some instances better on the PlayStation 3 than it is on the Xbox 360.

“At the end of ACII we realised that the PS3 was sort of an afterthought – or, not that it was an afterthought, but we hadn’t fully debugged it until the very end, and we had a bunch of frame rate issues and quality issues.”

“This time around we knew that, because we went through it once, so we decided to attack it from the beginning and I think the final product is much more on the level, and even on some parts, the frame rate is probably sometimes better on the PS3 than it is on 360.”

Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood which brings multiplayer capabilities to the franchise for the first time, will be released on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC on 16 November in the US and 19 November in the UK (and probably South Africa as well).
