Assassin's Creed on the DS gets a ... subtitle

Altair himself would probably admire the stealthiness of the build-up to Assassin's Creed on the DS. Since the title was confirmed, not a word has passed through Ubisoft's lips about the project, despite the fact that it launches under a month from now. But finally, after a lengthy period of time, we have a full title, courtesy of IGN: Assassin's Creed: Altair's Chronicles. MEGATON!Of course, that leaves us absolutely no clearer on what this accursed game actually is. The sensible money would be on a 2D platform-based adventure title, but that's pure guesswork. It could be a card game. It could be a kart racer. For all we know, it could be a damn dating sim. But we know this much: the lack of information on the game is now beginning to take its toll on us, to the point where we have developed a kind of perverse curiosity about just what form Assassin's Creed: Altair's Chronicles will take. And we're not proud of that.

I'm betting this will be a collection of mini-games involving assassinations. Oh wait, wasn't that what the console version was?

A Sims clone.
Players must take care of Altair's needs while he settles into a new life in the middle district of Damascus. Will he find love? Will he make new friends and be a social butterfly? Or will he crash under the pressure of being one of the holy land's busiest assassins. Use over 200 objects to furnish and decorate Altair's new place, including leper deterrent and sword racks.
Shit, I'd play that.

It would've been nice to see them go with a "DS" subtitle, like Damascan Sword or Desmond's Stake... I'm just coming up with these off the top of my head here; I have no idea what the game will be about.

Obivously it's going to be a Pinball game.

The electrified daggers clearly indicate this will be a rhythm game where you kill people to some groovy beats.

I bet it will use the same graphics as POP : SOT for the GBA , and it will have a couple of minigames ... thanks Ubisoft for getting more money out of bad games ... ( I actually hope that it will be a good game , but Ive learned my lessons many times ... ) .

Copy Cat be original

Obviously, this game is a myth like DukeNukemForever, and they keep reading forums searching for a good idea BEFORE WORKING on the game ¬¬
...or it could be an space shooter xD

If Ubisoft were to use Actimagine for 3d gameplay Instead of 2d, this version of Assassin's Creed could have a chance of being a successful game, just like Metroid Prime Hunters.
