Ubisoft puzzled over PS3 Assassin's Creed problems 2007-12-12 16:32:00 Assassin's Creed
may be getting a certain amount of flak from critics as being lacking in the gameplay department, but is it actually broken? Gamers who've purchased the PS3 release certainly think so. Reports are circulating that the bug appears to cause Altair's animation to literally freeze - even if he's in the middle of the air or galloping along the ground. Though the recent patch helped alleviate freezing issues for some, other users are still reporting issues with the game. Unfortunately, it appears that even Ubisoft
doesn't know what's going on.Ubisoft's senior public-relations manager says Ubisoft is investigating the matter and is not exactly sure what's causing the glitches. The company noted a drop in complaints once PS3 gamers noticed that turning off the automated login feature on the PlayStation Network, or PSN, reduced the number of crashes. Ubisoft is working on a patch for the problems
using feedback from gamers and blogs, Beadle says. While owning a PS3 Read more:Assassin
PS3 Firmware 2.10 Upgrade Blocks RSX Hack 2007-12-20 14:05:00 Scheduled for release on December 18th Firmware
2.10 joins the Xbox 360's Fall dashboard update in offering support for the DivX video codec.There are some caveats, however, as files that are copyright-protected, encoded with DivX 3.11 or larger than 2GB in size are not supported. With this update the homebrew development community has taken a hit. A group of independent developers over at PS2Dev is claiming that the Sony PS3 Firmware 2.10 update blocks the RSX access hack done via Linux. Mainly, homebrew development for the platform using 3D animations will be halted in updated systems. This is because the Linux hack granted access to the Sony PS3's GPU for tinkering.If you're a supporter of homebrew for the Sony PS3, It is advised you take caution, before making the decision, to update to firmware 2.10 at this point. It is no secret that Sony likes to take on any potential hacks, and if this is true it would be a discouragement to further Linux development under full GPU access on Read more:Blocks
