That does sound quite cool. That article I posted failed to mention that.

I did feel a bit burnt-out on AC after Brotherhood... but bringing all 3 together sounds pretty fuckin awesome.

If this takes place after the first two AC2 games, it should be 50 years after the fall of Constantinople. So I guess it's going to be up to Ezio to rebuild it or something.

Nah, they just rebranded it Istanbul.
Those crazy Turks!

Beat me to the joke.
Actually, taking on all the "conspiracies" that the Assassin's Creed games seem to make, it's possible if not probable that the REAL reason Constantinople got renamed Istanbul will become revealed, and They Might Be Giants will have to create a new song about how they were wrong.
But, is anyone else getting the sense that with all of these quick succession reveals 6 months before it's meant to be released makes the game like it's going to be a rushed job?

Renaming the Turkish city in 1930 is probably going to have little to do with Ezio or Desmond. =P

No more of a rush than Brotherhood. Same engine and a good dose of asset re-use means they can do these short cycles. Plus don't they have like a million people working on AC?

True.
But also, don't forget the old addage: "too many cooks spoil the broth"

or too many cooks spoil the brothel.
Either way, outcome is negative.

AC:B had something like 400 people working on it if I recall. It was either that or AC2. Its a pretty insane amount, but I do gotta give Ubisoft props for managing a team of that size to create a successful product.
It will be interesting to see how the franchise can hold up without Patrice Desilets though.

This is my biggest worry, esspecialy seeing that the next one is visiting existing characters again it seems like it might just stagnate without him. Wich will suck cause I really fucking want to know the end of Desmonds story.

I heard a few times that a big chunk of Rome was left over from AC II. So it might not have been as big of a rush job as people might think.
Then again, they've mentioned that there's a few Ubisoft studio's working on the game (Montreal, Singapore, Annecy aparently). So the work load is split up there.

I have to say I was really burned out playing as Ezio after Brootherhood; some of the voice acting in brotherhood is pretty cringeworthy by the end!
Would welcome playing again as Altair during the Crusades.

ACB Spoiler
And yet, after everything else, the question on everyone's lips is... is Veronica Mars dead or not?
Obs Edit: Spoiler tags please. you're lucky I had already finished ACB.
