Whether you like being teased or not, here’s one, or two, for you: Ubisoft is teasing new stuff. It’s all very blurry at the moment, given that they are, in fact, teasers. Yes, plural. UbiWorkshop – which upon some further investigation is affiliated with Ubisoft – is hinting at what was first believed to be artwork for Assassin’s Creed 3, with a setting in Egypt as shown by the image above – and below in its entirety. According to CVG though, after having contacted Ubisoft, it is in fact not a game-related project.Whether you like being teased or not, here’s one, or two, for you: Ubisoft is... more

UGO's Jordan Hoffman, who is tweeting his incredible coverage (@jhoffman6), led a panel on Friday for the upcoming 9.
While his coverage, among everyone else's, has been just as incredible. He also was a host. Here's his report from behind the looking glass:

Smack in the middle of my San Diego Comic-Con coverage - which involved live tweets from the cold concrete floor near the Men's Room of Hall H, the only place with secure WiFi - I had the honor and privilege to moderate the panel for Shane Acker's animated feature film 9. I'd've jumped at any opportunity to make a fool of myself in front of 6500 people, but was even happier to do it for a film I genuinely adore.
About ninety minutes before the panel, I was escorted into the super-exclusive Green Room above and behind Hall H. The change of SDCC's vibe was instantaneous. Down on the floor everyone is sweaty and looking a little dazed. Up here, amidst A-List stars and their handlers, everyone is beautiful. I soon realize I am the only one wearing shorts. Denzel isn't wearing shorts. Paul Bettany isn't wearing shorts. The guy putting out blondies on a tray isn't wearing shorts. (I also soon realize I am the only one eating the blondies.)UGO's Jordan Hoffman, who is tweeting his incredible coverage (@jhoffman6), led a... more

After showing 25 minutes from his upcoming film, Avatar, James Cameron and Fox revealed that 15-minutes would be shown at various IMAX theaters around the world for free.
He has yet to just how the films will be presented, but I can only imagine people are going to start lining up for the Friday event like when the original trailer for Tim Burton's Batman came out.
*edit: he did say "for free." my bad.After showing 25 minutes from his upcoming film, Avatar, James Cameron and Fox... more
