Assassin’s Creed Revelations releases E3 gameplay walkthrough with directors commentary

By Ryan Fleming Published May 29, 2014

At E3 last week, Ubisoft wowed us with gameplay footage and a description of the upcoming Assassin’s Creed Revelations. That footage quickly (and unsurprisingly) made it online. Ubisoft then decided that if everyone was going to watch the clip anyway, you might as well see it in context.

If you missed the clip the first time around, the setup is that Ezio is in Constantinople making friends with the Ottoman Empire—meaning they all want to kill him. The moment displayed is from about halfway through the game, as Ezio is after a Templar that has fled by boat. To pursue, he must follow in a similar fashion. The Ottomans have other ideas though, and they block the harbor thinking that it will lead to the capture of the master assassin. This was a mistake.

These gaming accessories are heavily discounted for Prime Day, and I’d buy them myself

After reviewing countless gaming products over the years, these are the Prime Day deals that impressed me the most.

Computer, Computer Hardware, Computer Keyboard

As someone who spends a good chunk of my day gaming, testing gaming hardware, and reviewing everything from monitors and headsets to mice and controllers, I'm always keeping an eye out for genuinely good deals. Over the years, I've used and reviewed hundreds of gaming products, which has also taught me that not every Prime Day discount is as good as it looks. Some products are discounted for a reason, while others become genuinely compelling purchases once the price drops. After digging through this year's Prime Day offers, I've narrowed the list down to gaming accessories that I'd actually recommend to friends and fellow gamers. Whether you're looking for a massive display to transform your battlestation, a tournament-ready controller, or a premium wireless headset, these are the deals that stood out because of their performance, value, and the amount of money you're saving.

GTA VI finally gets a price tag and a no-disc rule for physical edition

It will be a single-player experience when it lands on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on November 19th.

Rockstar Games has finally confirmed the asking price of its highly anticipated game, Grand Theft Auto VI aka GTA 6. The game is going to cost $79.99 in the US for the standard edition, and if you're willing to plonk extra cash on the Ultimate Edition, you will have to part ways with $99.99 per copy. Pre-orders for the game are starting today, June 26th, at midnight, and you will be able to reserve a copy for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X.

The asking price is definitely on the higher side. However, it's still below the $100+ speculations that were floating just a few weeks ago. By PC and console gaming standards, $80 as a starting price is still quite a high fee. So far, only Nintendo has been able to sell games with a similar price tag and has courted plenty of backlash for it, as well.

Netflix’s new horror game turns your phone into the controller, and it rings during gameplay

Unhinged offers two ways to play, a stakes-free Story Mode or a tense Standard Mode with a shrinking timer and checkpoint restarts.

Netflix just unveiled Unhinged, and it might be the strangest thing the streamer has ever put in its games tab. Arriving June 30, this interactive horror story does not need a console or controller. Instead, your own smartphone becomes the entire interface, and you receive phone calls that ring straight through your actual device mid-game.
