Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines' PS3 connectivity, new gameplay detailed

by Ben Gilbert on Sep 16th 2009 3:50PM

Aside from showing off a mess of impressive gameplay from Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines, a recent PlayStation.Blog interview with Bloodlines producer Dominic Lefrançois and senior producer Dan McAuliffe revealed some interesting facts about the interactivity between the PSP game and its PS3 sibling.

A handful of moves have transferred over from Assassin's Creed 2, though Lefrançois would only mention the ledge grab you see above. Additionally, "Templar coins" and weapons earned through assassinations in Bloodlines will transfer to AC2, while health from the codecs in AC2 will transfer to Bloodlines. It certainly sounds like a great incentive to purchase both games on both pla -- hey! We're on to you, Ubisoft!

Best Fucking Response EVER!!!!

good Job DeepFried....lol

Whats to hate? Its Commander Benjamin Sisko the early years.

Power of the cell

Yeah, instead of red it turns yellow.

Fucking troll.

not just one, but 3 of them, in a row.

More games need to do things like this.

Didn't people use to bitch at Nintendo for doing the same exact thing last gen?

I dunno but if it was it was because the proprietary cables of the GameCube to GameBoy were expensive and full of fail....or maybe cause the GameCube just didnt cut it....I loved my gamecube but shit.....it could have been better...

fact is the PSP(with exception to the Go) connect with a standard USB-mini B cable....comes with the PS3 already and most people have them also for MP3 players or Cameras or Cell phones....

I for welcome this type of interactive gameplay...wish more games did this

I thought that bitching was all about requiring every player to have a GBA if you wanted to do multiplayer Zelda: Four Swords Adventure or Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles.

If it were used more it would have made for some really interesting co-op games. But no one used em.

i dont see a Zune HD ever being able of doing this stuff...
great way to implement the psp and ps3 connectivity.

i still got my eye on buying resistance retribution to go with my resistance 2 game.

IMO this is up there with being able to play PSN ps1 classics on my ps3 or psp....

as soon as they release the Retribution on PSN I will buy it....refused to buy anymore UMDs....

but yea the Zune HD being able to do this with MAJOR titles may not ever happen...

They need to start more of a PSone classics thing on the PSP. I know a few have been revamped but if they did a lot more, it would be fantastic.

I don't see why it "couldn't"

They could just put them up on the PSN store since the PSP has PS1 emulation built in as standard.

Sucks that the Spyro games or Crash 2 aren't on the european store. I'd totally buy all of them.

*that was at Iroquois, and I realise now that you meant remakes of games (like the MediEvil one?)

the zuneHD is actually pretty advanced in hardware, the tegra chip that powers the zuneHD is disgusting, its an 8 core integrated chip running at 800mhz, can decode 720p video, geforce mobile graphics core, speaking from a technical point of view it is more powerful than the psp and even the iphone 3GS.

until i hear about halo zuneHD or mass effect zuneHD im not getting excited.
what it can do doesnt mean much if MS doesnt care or do much with it.

i have a zune and no ipod and it was a little disappointing how little support MS did with the zune thus far.thats just my opinion.

and if nobody ( or should i say a small percentage of the market ) owns 1, it doesnt matter because no one will make products, games, or accessories for the product.
that is what has happened with the zune so far. no sales. no accessories. minimal apps. have fun.

and what i dont see happening has nothing to do with what could possibly happen..
OPINIONS...

Okay who has two thumbs and common sense? This guy.
(meaning im not buying both.)

Well, I'm sold!

I feel ripped off for paying $60 for the first one. However, I could be persuaded if the developers collected these flags I have set up around town.

Sounds like a lot of Assassin's Creed playing all at one time. Playing one of the games, then moving to a different game, then going back to the other AC sounds fine, but playing through two AC games at once just sounds like too much (the first one got to be too much before the end, with only one to play.)

Looking good

Now if we could get PSP and 360 cross-compatibility, I'd REALLY be impressed.

can't wait to find out what you can buy with templar coins in AC2.
