Assassin's Creed: Conspirational New Video

Bad accents abound

Posted by Staff
Altair, the stealthy protagonist of Assassin's Creed, moves like an angel of death, carrying fury in his wings. That's what we're told in this latest video from Ubisoft, anyway.

But while we should admiring Assassin's Creed's cinematic beauty and atmosphere, SPOnG's too busy being distracted by Ubisoft Montreal's attempt at a one-size-fits-all-of-Europe accent for the Knights Templar. Now, SPOnG's met a few French Canadians in its time, and we know that their attempts at an English accent tend, at least, to resemble the Homer-alike in that episode of The Simpsons when the yellow baldy gets barred from Moe's (you know, top hat, bad moustache - you know!)... but come on!

Anyway, don't let SPOnG's prejudice towards French Canadians doing foreign accents mar your experience, dig in! You can find out more about Assassin's Creed on SPOnG's dedicated game page.

Conspirational? Don't you mean conspiratorial?

No. We meant a strange pun of "Conspiratorial" and "Inspirational" - but no word existed so, like Shakespeare, we invented one.

I am being serious - that was not a mistake.

Cheers
