"Multiple Ubisoft games may have leaked ahead of planned announcements next week.An image posted on A9VG and spotted by NeoGAF, supposedly shows the logos for a number of games set to be revealed during Ubisoft’s Digital Day event next week.The image features previously unannounced titles including “Assassin’s Creed Liberation HD,” “Assassin’s Creed Pirates” and “Rayman: Fiesta Run,” as well as the recently confirmed “Child of Light.”The other unannounced games are “Autodance II,” “Endwar Online,” “Rabbids: Big Bang” and “Valiant Hearts: The Great War.”"
"What if fairy tales were real? What if wolves and demons and talking mice walked right up to the counter at the grocery store and swiped their milk across the scanners just like you do? What if your jerk neighbour who screams like a boar every time he fights with his wife actually was a boar?Well then you’d probably be dreaming about (or playing, I guess) “The Wolf Among Us,” Telltale Games’ latest comic-styled-and-inspired game. It’s the video game version of Bill Willingham’s “Fables” comics, where creatures based on fables and folklore attempt to hide their appearances from the “mundane” humans. Forced from their homes, their titles and fortunes stripped from them, all they can do now is avoid being caught. Avoid getting sent to the ominous Farm. If you can’t manage to fit in, that’s where you go."
"Head of Microsoft Studios Phil Spencer assured consumers Friday that gamers will be able to walk into retailers and purchase the Xbox One come its launch on Nov. 22 in the U.S. and 13 other markets.In a report from VG 24/7, Spencer said from day one that gamers will be able to buy the Xbox One, and that a shortage of units on launch day would be a terrible consumer experience.“You want people to be able to walk in the store and buy one on day one, so you’re trying to manage the inventory that isn’t pre-sold. It’s not a yield problem; it’s us trying to manage the hardware side,” Spencer said."
