Assassin's Creed: Revelations Wont Ship With Always Online Ubisoft DRM Confirmed

Rock Paper Shotgun received clarification from Ubisoft regarding the DRM that would be used for the upcoming game. Hopefully, they mean it this time(unlike the case with From Dust when they initially said it wont have the always online DRM only for the game to be released with said DRM). Perhaps they have realised that having such a DRM scheme only discourages those thinking of buying their games. Or maybe not... Assassin's Creed: Revelations releases on the PC on November 29th.

Skyrim Will Have A LOT Of Quests - Todd Howard On The New Quest System

Todd Howard clarified to Wired that those playing Skyrim could, theoretically play the game almost infinitely. This is due to the game's new Radiant Quest System. Yes folks, randomly generated quests are in Skyrim. I wonder if these quests will be interesting(don't get confused with the main quest which I'm sure isn't randomly generated). Here's what the article says...

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Malaysian Midnight Launch

It was a Monday, 7th November. Half an hour before the clock hit 12. I scanned the surrounding to see about 100 people, nearly equal to the size of the Battlefield 3 launch(maybe a bit lesser but it's hard to say). It's interesting to note that most of the people I see aren't the same people from the Battlefield 3 launch. Looks like a new crowd I have not seen(which sort of says that people either pick one or the other... generally)...

Defenders of Ardania is a tower defense game with a twist, it's also tower attack... and it's due out for a variety of platforms(including mobile), PC included. Watch the first play videos below...

Rockstar published game coming out for the PC in 6 months since console release? Get outta here! But that's happening with LA Noire. It unlocks on Steam in 2 days. Anyone going to get it?

Here a trailer showing you this world they've crafted, which you'll able to explore come Friday(I've also included the making of the debut gameplay trailer video)...

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Gone Gold - No Horse Armour For You!

Which shouldn't come as a surprise considering it is releasing rather soon(11.11.2011). Sigh of relief... it's not going to be delayed that's for sure. Your pre orders are safe. Don your armour men! It's time to bash erm... skeleton skulls! Day one patch has been confirmed, and Bethesda has been reported to say that they will make more 'substantial' DLC rather than smaller ones(I hope this is true). Mean time watch this gameplay footage(XBOX 360 version is obvious...)
