Altair's true identity revealed
Hot off the heels of all the important news that is in no way influenced by the fact it's April Fools' Day is the announcement of Altair's latest adventure. Ubisoft producer Jade Raymond introduces a new type of assassin in this video which is verified to be AFS (April Fools' Safe).
In all seriousness, Ubisoft and Konami have teamed up for the ultimate gaming mash-up putting Altair, of Assassin's Creed, in the shoes of Solid Snake's (Metal Gear Solid 4) shoes as he battled through a futuristic battlefield.

Too long really and a bit dull for most of it. I was looking forward to seeing Altair scaling some buildings but then realised it's just old snake looking lame with his cigerette in altair's gear.
Still pretty cool though.

What a sick ass clip this was. Hideo is a genious and Jade is sexy. MGS4 is going to blow everything away and this video makes me excited for June 12th even more.

im going with what Pete said. The assassins costume will be an unlockable costume in the game. If this was just for a joke, then they would have made a simple pre rendered trailer-like video. this is longer and looks to be real gameplay footage. This just justifys a pS3 purchase by my even more. (never looked at the MGS series. only wanted the resistance games and ratchet and clank)

that was really stupid. what is the point of popping in altair if you cant climb shit and leap on guys with your blade? and what was with the constant zoom in of the camera to look at altair's outfit? leave the pointless stories unrelated to the 360 elsewhere
