News about the Assassin's Creed movie



Hello World !


We finaly know the name of the new Assassin's Creed game but maybe you still don't know that there will be a movie based on the famous video game. So what does it talk about and what do I know?

First Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard will be part of the movie. Fassbender would have the first role and Cotillard... well we don't know exactly.
The story? At the beginning everybody said that it would talk about the first game with Altaïr, but other sources said that it will take place in the 16th century with an other assassin that we don't know yet.
So who's right who's wrong? It's difficult to say.

Last week Ubisoft and Fow shared a poster. We can see on it an eagle so could it be about Altaïr? We'll know more later.


Tell me in comments what you think about it and see ya for the next article.

Assassin's Creed Syndicate: all you need to know

Hello World!

That's it ! We finally got some informations about the new Assassin's Creed game. It takes 2 years to develop it. Ubisoft just showed to the fan the game trailer and presented the game. So let's go !


First we learned that the game is called Assassin's Creed Syndicate and not Assassin's Creed Victory as rumors said.  
The game takes place in 1868 in Victorian London. It's an important time for History because there is the Industrial Revolution. So there are trains and carriages. But there is also poverty.



Evie Frye, Jacob's sister
Jacob Frye
The hero of this game is an assassin named Jacob Frye. He was born in 1847 and has a twin sister : Evie who's more quiet than his brother but it doesn't stop her from being a formidable assassin. They both were raised by assassins. Their purpose is to release London from the Templars who scared the city. Does Evie will be playable ? We still don't know but it could be cool.

Now what's new in this game?
the Kukri is a big knife

Well if we look a little deeper to the weapons there is a new arsenal, and it looks very interesting. Our hero Jacob doesn't have a sword like in the other AC beacuse Ubisoft explained that in the London of the 19th century, nobody can walk down the street with a sword on his belt. So Jacob uses a Kukri (the Far Cry gamers would know what it is ^^), a revolver, a brass knuckles 
and BIG NEW a grapnel. Jacob can also use hallucinogenic darts.

Of course what could be an assassin without the secret blade ? Jacob has it too and like Arno it's a Ghost Blade. He can throw knives too.
But as I said before the big new is the Jacob's grapnel. Thanks to this Jacob can reach roofs more easily. He can also zip line. 
So you could visit London from rooftops.



An other exciting new, we could use carriages and fight on them! Indeed there will be chasing games and in the London of the 19th century there is traffic so you could use vehicules of this period.
The combat system has been revamped. The fights are faster and more realistic compared to the other AC games.



Now you know everything that Ubisoft told us but what's the purpose in this game? The Assassins have to release London from the Templars. For that you could use the surrounding environment to kill your enemies and you have to gather an army thanks to gang wars or to get new territories.



The game will be available on the 23 october of this year for PS4 and Xbox ONE. If you're a PC gamer it will be available on autumn 2015 but there is no specific date. If you want more informations go on the Ubisoft website  (for the french version go there).

So what do you guys think about it? Do you think this game will be better than Unity? Tell me in the comments.

This is the trailer for the game. Enjoy ;)

And here is the announcement of the game with everything explained: (this one is in french)

Our world needs us

Hello world.
Today I want to talk about a very special subject.
I'm only 16 I know but I think we-I mean the young people- should be interested by something else than our computer or our smartphone.
For example we could read books-not stupid books of course- which can help us to understand the world where we're living. We could learn new things about different people, different culture...
In short we could be more human because this is one of the big problem in this century : we are dehumanized.
I found a video which talk about that and I totally agree with it. I have the same opinion.
Now watch it. You can leave a comment I'll willingly answer.

What's in the Box? Insurgent-My feelings





Hello World !
One week ago I went to see Insurgent to the cinema. And what can I say about it? In one word: surprising.
I'm explaining. One month ago, I watched the Insurgent trailer on my computer like 80 % of the fans. I admit it when I saw it I was.. a little perplexed about the movie because there were many special effects (and you have to know that I hate special effects -I'll make an article about that soon), and there were concepts which were not in the book like the Box for example.
So yesterday I expected to be disappointed. But then the lights went down and the movie started. Two hours later I went out of the cinema, I was totally dumbfounded.
Indeed, I was pleasantly surprised.

The box, a new concept


 The scenario although it was changed is quite good and allows the spectator who didn't read the book to understand the story - because it's very complex.
The movie lasts almost 2 hours but sinceriously -like said Stephen Amell - I totally lost track of time. The reason? Well it's simple I never was bored.


The special effects are good

The special effects are very well made and there is action all the time, I mean most of the time. But like I said at the beginning I hate special effects and for me, there were too much.
Of course this story which takes place in this apocalyptic version of Chicago needs special effects. I understand that. But this is my opinion.



The Amity faction
Other good point: the images. I literally fell in love with the Amity faction. I expected a lot from the movie for this faction and I have been convinced. The place was like I imagined it when I read the book -except for a few details.
It's very colourful and bright. I loved Octavia Spencer as Johanna but it's really a pity that she doesn't often appear in the movie. Because I know that she's an amazing actress.



Now let's talk about the bad points, because there are some. I noticed 2 big travelling: the first is after Tris cut her hair, we can see Amity people working; the second one.. I don't remember when it is ^^ .
Anyway, it was a good idea but the problem is : the camera moves too fast so the image is blurred and we can't see clearly. So my eyes started hurting.


Second thing and I know that some people will hate me for that -sorry : the actor's set.
Why am I say that? I can hear you scolding me but I have to say it. This kind of movie belongs to the big family of the apocalyptic films for teenagers (and I'm a teenager so I know what I am talking about).
For example I'm sure you know Hunger Games. Well Insurgent (Divergent and soon Allegiant) has the same problematic : the hero who's a teenager or a young adult (often a girl by the way) lives in a strange (dystopian) world where there is poverty and a bad guy who is rich or get the power. People are oppressed. But the hero has something different compared with the others- Tris is divergent, Katniss is a good archer. But suddenly there is a problem and the hero becomes a rebel. At the end the hero saves the world and overthrows the bad guy. Of course there is some love.
This is the classic scenario of this kind of movies. And unfortunately teenagers and young adults love it. People especially young ones haven't a critical mind anymore. Now when someone who's young just saw a movie, he/she will say that it was amazing just because there was action (special effects) or love.
Anyway. About the actor's set I want to talk about Shailene Woodley. She's not a bad actress but when I saw her playing in a movie I feel nothing. I mean for example we can't compare Woodley to Meryl Streep. Do you see the difference? Oh no I have an other example, could you compare Woodley to Naomi Watts or Kate Winslet (who are in this film) ?  Of course Shailene isn't the worst actress I ever seen but she's not the best too. But you know she's good for this sort of movies which are superficial. I talked about Woodley but she's not the only one-I think about Ansel Elgort for example.


So in conlusion : this movie is good. It's not a masterpiece but it's not that bad for passing the time. I forgot to talk about the music but it was good actually, it accompanied well the movie. If you like dystopian films you're gonna love this one. But if you prefer amazing movies with great actor's sets, move along. That's all I'm gonna say today.

And you, did you see Insurgent? What did you think about it?

The return of The Last of Us

Hey everybody. Today I'm talking about an amazing game : The Last of Us.




Do you know The Last of Us? If you don't this video game is one of the best game created for the Ps3. Elaborated by Naughty Dog, The Last of Us talk about the story of a survivor : Joel.
The USA is filled with infected humans because of a virus.
One day a Joel's friend asked him to look after a fourteen-years-old girl, Ellie. She has to go to another Quarantine Zone.
But that not will go according to plan and this journey will forever change Ellie and Joel.




This is for the story now I have some news for Ps4 gamers.

Indeed the creators of Uncharted did a remastered version of The Last of Us for the next gen.
This survival game has been reworked by Naughty Dog especially to the Ps4.
The images are clearer and the landscapes are more detailed.





You can see some differences between the Ps3 and the Ps4


The games runs at 1080p and at a smooth 60fps.
If you're not convinced watch this comparison trailer. And if you're still not convinced, The Last of Us: Remastered includes all the DLC .



PS: If you like this game and reading, I recommend to you the novel wrote by Rick Yancey The 5th Wave. The story is similar to the story of The Last of Us.

Assassin's Creed Rogue

Hello

Yesterday I was surfing on the net and what I saw? A new Assassin's Creed trailer !
PS3 and X-Box 360 players, you'll be happy. Indeed this game will be only sold for these consoles.
I present you the Assassin's Creed Rogue.
Shay Patrick Cormac
The trailer reveals that the game will release on November 11th.
This time you will play as a Templar called Shay Patrick Cormac who was an Assassin before his dark transformation. 
You will venture across the Atlantic with your ship : The Morrigan.

On the right , The Morrigan

The naval gameplay will be the same as Assassin's Creed Black Flag with some news. There will be new enemy tactics, new weapons and an artic world full of possibilities.




The artic world


In this game you will play in 3 environments :
-The North Atlantic Ocean

-The River Valley

-New York City in the 18th century






But who says Templar says kill Assassins, and this is exactly what you will have to do. With a new arsenal of weapons -you will use an air rifle- you will take revenge for the Assassins.
New York City






Before being a Templar you were an Assassin
so you will use the eagle vision to detect and protect you from Assassins hiding in the shadows, on rooftops...




In conclusion, this Assassin's Creed will be amazing and you will learn a lot on the Templars' Creed. And if you don't want to play as a Templar, there is Assassin's Creed Unity on X-Box One and PS4.

Meanwhile I show you the trailer. Enjoy ^^
