Thank you, Mr. Ross

With Assassin's Creed III on pace to set the record for most video game pre-orders placed, this new video will surely come as old news to many of us, myself included. However, for the eleven people or so who have yet to reserve their copy of ACIII, this new video from Ubisoft is for you. In it, you'll find details on the Steelbook game case that is offered as a pre-order bonus with the game. The limited edition box comes with original artwork by comic book legend Alex Ross and is available to carry out on the day you pre-order while supplies last.

No retailer specific availability has been mentioned, but it would be best to check with the store of your choice to ensure you'll still get yours. Assassin's Creed III takes the leap of faith into stores this October 30th.

I got the Freedom Edition pre-ordered. Hope I don't get screwed by a more awsome edition getting announced after.

I guess it makes up for everything that the rest of the world misses out on, but I hate the the US doesn't get the special editions for this, I would love to get them!! Already got my 2 steelbook preorders, canceled to the preorders and will get a third from the real one. Can't wait to try it, love the timeline they chose!!

Can someone tell me which editions are out there and what they include?
Also even though the guy told us about animations running EPIC I fear lots of glitches just like in Skyrim (which also had a lot of updated animations, still less advanced than AC though)

"Never thought that they (templars) were doing right?" Pretty sure you can gather that from every assassination in the first game....

Well, actually you move the manual... I would think the game would go straight to your console when you get it!!

The templars believe in world peace through strict control of the human population with mind control and other devices the pieces of Eden provide. The assassins believe in free will, even if it means an imperfect world. If we were playing the series as templars, we'd probably be convinced they're the good guys by now.

Well I thought of it that way in the first game, they were keeping people in control and keeping an order, it's their way of what's right. And no, I wouldn't see that as the right way of going about it even if the whole series was being a templar.

wes coas crippn said:If its anything like the previous games, I'll get it at Christmas for 1/2 the price new.It's nothing like the others. The team that made AC2 rebuilt the entire engine solely for AC3. There's going to be thousands of people on screen at once in the bigger battles. The "wilderness" part of the map which is only 1/3 of the game, is already 1.5x the entire map of AC:B. In short this game is going to be fucking insaneeeee.
