Last couple of days have been manic and Ubisoft have been keeping me busy by parading me around Montreal before we flew back to the UK. I didn't have time to do a day 3 blog while I was there and I thought while I am slowly transcribing Q&A's I would get one out!

We left the hotel around 8:30 in the morning and arrived at Ubisoft's beautiful and absolutely massive Montreal studio! We got a small tour of the studio, saw places where they record audio, created the game and ate food. We couldn't take many pictures due to several secret unannounced projects going on and the company was very secretive and secure about everything. A security guard patrolled during the day as well as certain employees only having key cards that accessed certain rooms.

After the small tour we were lead to one of the lower floors into a room full of Assassin's Creed 2 posters and debug units. Here we got a Q&A session with Sebastian Puel, producer for AC2, and got some proper hands on time with the game. A good 4 hours I managed and I also got a nice look at the PSP and DS versions that are being worked on, the DS version looked the most promising.

I am still waiting on a few photos but will pop them up as soon as they become available, the day was amazing and the game is well... you'll have to wait for my preview but to cut the story short: amazing! Keep an eye on Consolemonster.com for the preview as well as more blogs in this ubi portal.
