im sure they will give away free games....farcry 3 and watchdogs....again

 

[CitizenZ]

Yea, I got the email too , went to the site and know they have nothing to offer me anymore. Sad when their IPs are dripping with potential.

Why does everyone hate Ubisoft but also get excited for R6:S, AC, Splinter Cell, Far Cry, Rayman, and so on?

some of their games are pretty great.

Ubisoft's 35th birthday, so that mean's it actually will be identical to the 34th except the increase in number.... and the same as 33rd birthday ... and 32nd ... and 31st ...

Or have they added more stuff to collect at the party?

 

[SpiceRacz]

Still the best thing they've ever put out:

 

[Heisenberg007]

Ubisoft: Leveled up to 35.

"Mobile" region discovered. New "F2P Market" area is now available.

 

[Fare thee well]

give a date for prince now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[sertopico]

Everything makes sense...

 

[Azurro]

No.

 

[eyesabitdull]

Wanted to post a Ubisoft gif....but for some reason now that search turns up some Dani cosplayer making a hundred awful gifs for eternity.

Seriously. Who made this and why did you just make a hundred of them and all of them are awful and low quality?

 

[93xfan]

Still the best thing they've ever put out:

Beyond Good and Evil or some of the Rayman games.

 

[Brigandier]

How the mighty have fallen.... Ubi used to be the real deal.

I absolutely can not stand the shit they throw out now.

 

[Banjo64]

They’ve made a few games that I’ve enjoyed in my 30 years.

Rayman 2: The Great Escape on N64.
Black Flag on PS4.
Rayman Legends on Vita.
Far Cry 3 on PS3.

Overall, for a studio that publishes so many games, there really should be more that I’ve liked.

 

[Orta]

Birthday? Ubisoft?

 

[kanjobazooie]

I like current Ubisoft.

I only get their games when they're under $15, though.

 

[All_Might]

Lets just reuse last years celebration I am sure they would like that.

 

[Alx]

I haven't played a game of theirs for a couple of years, but they used to be my favourite publishers. A lot of genre diversity, creativity, and always taking risks with new concepts (they were always onboard the different kinds of experiences, be it motion gaming, secondary screen, VR, ...). Their only sin is milking IPs to death whenever they find one that sells (and it happened quite often), but as long as you don't gobble up everything they produce, you can find more than enough to be entertained.
Not sure how things will evolve though, the industry seems to be less about taking risks, and the company itself has seen many major departures from their traditional creative staff (starting with Ancel, but also that guy who apparently was in control of all the IP selection and left due to the toxic management scandals)

Birthday? Ubisoft?

And yet you choose SC over MGS

No they are really not

Ubisoft was merely HIV+ back then, now they're full blown (bad) AIDS.

Regardless, what's your game? Do you take notes on what people say in here and pull them up on them a week later?

Just a good memory, but I was only messing with you. Should've used a smiley. I agree tho.

 

[Shubh_C63]

Let's meet again once there block chain strategy is open in the market. Will run for most hated company and the most richest...

 

[GnomeChimpsky]

Still the best thing they've ever put out:

I just noticed there's a monster reflecting in his sabre. Neat!

 

[Chukhopops]

Jesus the hate is really strong here. I still remember the first Splinter Cell on Xbox and how mind blowing it was, Rayman 2 and 3, Origins/Legends, Beyond Good and Evil.

Even their recent games have been good (but maybe less inspired) between Fenyx Rising and AC:Oddyssey.

 

[kyussman]

Gonna climb to the top of the tallest building in my town and jump off to celebrate.....might as well,I won't be missing out on much going forward will I.....their games are a bit shit these days.

 

[ResilientBanana]

No they are really not

Oh ok, they just sell millions of units then.. why?

 

[Shut0wen]

Happy birthday! Ashame you went downhill after far cry 3 rip my man

 

[Paasei]

They started their midlife crisis too early, then.

 

[Kadve]

Beyond Good and Evil or some of the Rayman games.

nah, lets celebrate for real with their true, one and only classic.

 

[Team Andromeda]

A brilliant company so many good games. We really need a new Splinter cell mind

 

[Rocco Schiavone]

I will celebrate If they give me my money back for Watch Dogs Legion. Deal??

Piece of shit game.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Some quality jokes, can't deny that. Straight son of a bitch moments.

No free games?! Here's to 35 more!

 

[I Love Rock 'n' Roll]

No thank you!

 

[Impotaku]

 

[AJUMP23]

I like that Mario and Rabbids game they did.

 

[Umbasaborne]

The days of rayman, splinter cell, prince of persia, and assassins creed 1-2 are long behind us. Fuck modern garbage ubisoft. With their push to make every game they have the same boring GAAS, and trying to jump on the crypto train. They fucking suck now. I feel bad for the people their who want to make something interesting and ubisoft wont let them step out of their boring open world GAAS format.

 

[Godot25]

It's more like sad reminder how good and creative Ubisoft used to be in the past and how pathetic it is now.

I'll drink to my good experiences with Ubisoft's games in the past. Prince of Persia, Rayman games, Splinter Cell, Rainbow Six Vegas, GRAW games etc.

 

[Umbasaborne]

I like that Mario and Rabbids game they did.

The one interesting thing they’ve done in the past 5 years

 

[TVexperto]

yves and the complete management needs to stop down after still trying to hop on the battle royal trends with their third game now I think?
