Warp Zoned writes: "Ive been a fan of the stealth genre since 1998, when I first played the greatest game ever: Metal Gear Solid. No hyperbole, of course. Thats not to say I dont like other games in the genre, too: the entire Splinter Cell series is excellent and, more recently, Dishonored was hugely impressive. However, Thief was one I just never played. The loot-em-up is apparently the genesis of some stealth mechanics, such as light meters and sound cues, which were revolutionary achievements in the first person point of view. So, it should have been no surprise that I was incredibly intrigued by this new reimagining of Thief. Sadly, if opportunity makes a thief, this reboot offers them up sparingly."

Ubisoft is currently at the top of their game. Their flagship annual franchise Assassins Creed has been critically and commercially successful, as was Splinter Cell Blacklist, and the studio is gearing up for the release of their upcoming science-fiction open-world game, Watch_Dogs. One thing that all these games have in common aside from their mutual publisher is that they will all eventually see adaptations on the big screen. According to Ubisoft Torontos Jade Raymond, film and TV adaptations are considered as long-term goals when Ubisoft develops their franchises.

Ubisoft is the Xbox 360's most adventurous publisher. What's the secret, asks Darren Wells?.
Hugues Ricour is showing Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag when he says, almost casually: "One of the mandates that comes from our CEO is to enrich people's lives." It's a simple statement from the senior producer, offered to put into context what is now established as one of the games industry's most dependable annual releases. To state, despite itself, that the game does more than just fulfil the financial needs of a company - it also hopes to inspire some kind of fundamental change within the player.

AllThatsEpic: We all have probably developed a love/hate relationship with survival horror gamesthey scare the crap out of us, but thats why the relationship is so unique. Well, Red Barrels latest survival horror project, Outlast, will do just thatscare the living sh*t out of you. Several masterminds who were once a part of games such as Assassins Creed, Splinter Cell, Uncharted, and Prince of Persia came together to form Red Barrels, and so I have all but confidence put into this game. Outlast is a first-person survival game that takes place in an insane asylum.
