Today begins a new series of posts without mentions of ridiculous teenage songs in its titles! Rejoice! XD
The first DLC for [[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]] has been announced. Named [[The Lost Archive|"The Lost Archive"]], the downloadable content will feature gameplay sequences similar to Desmond's Journey ones, but focused on [[Subject 16]]'s life. Unfortunaly, Ubisoft's trend of not including (or at least delaying) PC players also makes a appearance this time. Altough I expect it to be avaiable for PC at a later date, I still find the lack of explanation for excluding the PC version disgusting, without even a mention to the why.


First, I would like to begin this post adressing the absence of our sysop [[User:War Clown]] -- he will be missed. There's little I can say that has not been said, but I'll say this: may fortune smiles on your travels, brother, and brings you back to us safely someday.


With the sad stuff said, let's get the party started! Pardeee!
On a cheerful note, this week the wiki has surpassed the TWO THOUSAND main article count! <small>(everyone cheers)</small><br />It's amazing to see that little 7-page site I found in 2009 become a 2000 pages encyclopedia, a compendium of information so complete and awesome that even AC developers use for reference. A encylopedia better even than Ubisoft's official one. And all of this build by us -- editors and staff.

To celebrate this, [[User:Nostalgia AC]] (our newest Istruttore) have made a special commemorative userbox, which can be seen below along with it's code:
I would like to officially welcome [[User:Elchzard]] into the staff -- altough the unanymous oppinion among us was that Elch was Staff material, most believed he needed more edit work before joining us. I understand that and agree to certain extent, but the unique circunstance demanded unique actions: War departed and left Elch without a master. With his training too advanced to stop and with the [[Project:Apprentices|Initative]] out of avaiable masters, the best choice for him and for us was to promote him -- editing is something he will only acquire with practice, with no need to be teached, but with need for experience. As such, I consulted with [[User:Assassin-Rayne]] and [[User:Vatsa1708]] -- the [[Istruttorium]]'s Direttore and Carmelengo respectively -- and both accepted Elch was already good enough to join them, and a Istruttore Elch now is. But more important than he becoming staff is the fact that he is the first sucessful apprentice to graduate the Iniative! So after 6 months of hard work by every single member of the staff, giving their best that a deeper bond and a better wiki is created, the project starts to give fruit! So congratulations to every single one involved, and special congrats to Elch. Look forward for his graduation speech in the comments below. =P

Next, I've came across some very awesome videos throught the internet that may interest many people around here, so when you are sitting in your chair staring at the PC thinking about who would win in a fight between a llama and a camel, make sure to watch one of those!


* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4zAQDM8ubQ&feature=youtu.be&a Assassin's Creed v.s. Prince of Persia] <br>This very awesome video is a 3D martial arts fight between [[Altaïr]] from [[AC|''Assassin's Creed'']] and The Prince from the 2008 game ''Prince of Persia'' that makes homage to a lot of fighting movies out there, from Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan passing through Jet Li all the way up to The Matrix. Is a must watch and I definitely recommend it to everyone (specially to Rayne and DarkFeather, our resident ninjas XD) and I also recommend the 2008 Prince of Persia game -- I personally like it more than the others -- and The Prince is dubbed by [[Nolan North]] XD<br><small>Note:I THINK it was first linked to me months ago by Kaishiro on IRC, but I can be wrong</small>
I would also like to make a special mention for our oldest admin and my consigliere, [[User:Master Sima Yi]].

Thank you, Phil.

Also, the Skype and [[Project:IRC|IRC]] community is at full swing, so make sure to drop by! And expect news regarding Skype and voices (and MUSIC! =D) on the next news post ;D

The first DLC for Assassin's Creed: Revelations has been announced. Named "The Lost Archive", the downloadable content will feature gameplay sequences similar to Desmond's Journey ones, but focused on Subject 16's life. Unfortunaly, Ubisoft's trend of not including (or at least delaying) PC players also makes a appearance this time. Altough I expect it to be avaiable for PC at a later date, I still find the lack of explanation for excluding the PC version disgusting, without even a mention to the why.


On a cheerful note, this week the wiki has surpassed the TWO THOUSAND main article count! (everyone cheers)
It's amazing to see that little 7-page site I found in 2009 become a 2000 pages encyclopedia, a compendium of information so complete and awesome that even AC developers use for reference. A encylopedia better even than Ubisoft's official one. And all of this build by us -- editors and staff.

To celebrate this, User:Nostalgia AC (our newest Istruttore) have made a special commemorative userbox, which can be seen below along with it's code:

This user has helped the wiki achieve 2000 articles and has earned a slice of the Assassin's Poundcake.
