The Assassin's Creed conference demo was rushed because Bungie couldn't get a single-player Halo 3 demo ready in time, CVG hears.

Apparently the reason Jade Raymond and her accomplice had a few issues with the live playable demo (that was a bit buggy in places) was that the Montreal development studio had to rush to get something ready for the show as the request of Microsoft. This apparently happened because Bungie couldn't get a playable demo of Halo 3's single-player campaign ready to show in time.

Wednesday 11 July 2007 The word from our man onsite at this morning's Microsoft conference is dismaying - Assassin's Creed is looking bad. And, having watched the walkthrough on video-powerhouse GameTrailers, we can see what's worrying our frontline-camping chap. First to tick us off are the hordes of cloned water-jug-on-head women idly milling around at the start. Seriously, in some shots you can see six or seven of exactly the same person. Then there's the much-lauded crowd-pushy-system. The ... » Read More

Assassin's Creed creative director Patrice Desilets, producer Jade Raymond and technical director Claude Langlais have been discussing the design motives and processes involved when making their new game at Ubisoft Montreal - with Desilets describing the game as "a sports game with swords and free running".

This hybrid concept forms the core of the new game and has meant the development team has had to rethink or rebuild many of its design, production and technical duties - as explained in the cover feature in this month's Develop.

"Our goal is to create a world in which the player can interact with everything with no suspension of disbelief," he Desilets, reasoning: "Place a highly mobile and skilled character in a fully interactive living environment and the possibilities are endless."
