What was inside the briefcase and other obscure Pulp Fiction facts

We all know that Quentin Tarantino is a petty whiny dickhead who steals all his plots from other movies, ripping off scene after scene, and recombining them into silver nitrate milkshakes. But I enjoyed Pulp Fiction anyway. If you did too, you’ll like these nine factoids—which include the real content of Marsellus Wallace’s briefcase.

73 Million Assassin’s Creed Titles Sold To Date, According To Ubisoft

73 Million Assassins Creed Titles Sold To Date, According To UbisoftWe know that Ubisoft has plans on releasing a new Assassin’s Creed game every year and they’re not shy about it, despite some worrying that the annual releases could somehow dilute the franchise. On one hand that is true, but on the other we’re sure that gamers out there who are fans would love to see new content added every now and then, right?

Well perhaps Ubisoft’s strategy might be paying off for them because according to the recent figures, it seems that Assassin’s Creed could be Ubisoft’s best selling franchise to date. The numbers were recently released on Ubisoft’s website and revealed that the company had managed to sell about 73 million copies of the game to date, making it their best selling franchise in the world.

Ubisoft launched Assassin’s Creed back in 2007 where it debuted on the Sony PS3, the Xbox 360, and the PC. They went on to release multiple versions of the game where there were separate Assassin’s Creed titles made for mobile as well. In 2014 there are talks that not only could Ubisoft be releasing a new Assassin’s Cree game (Unity, which has since been confirmed), but two Assassin’s Creed game.

While Assassin’s Creed: Unity is designed for the latest consoles, the latter, codenamed Comet, is said to be designed for previous-gen consoles in mind. Unity is expected to see a release later this year and we can’t wait to see how the game will affect Ubisoft’s numbers.

Wolfenstein: The New Order 30 Minute Gameplay Footage Released

Wolfenstein has to be one of the more classic FPS games from back in the day that helped make the genre popular. We guess it’s about time that someone revived the classic which is what Bethesda has done with Wolfenstein: The New Order which is currently scheduled for a release on a multitude of platforms come 20th May.

Now we’ve seen various footage and photos from the game, such as trailers, screenshots, concept images, and so on, but if you were wondering how the game will actually play, you might be interested to learn that Bethesda has recently released a 30 minute video which basically showcases the gameplay of the upcoming game, giving gamers a pretty deep look into what they might be able to expect.

Since the video itself is pretty long, you might want to enjoy it with a snack or a drink. For those who’d rather not spoil the game for themselves, we guess you should probably skip the footage as there are spoilers in the footage that we’re sure some gamers would much rather they discover for themselves.

However for those who think that this is not enough, the good news is that Bethesda will be hosting another livestream of the game on the 24th of April at 2pm EST, so you can check back then if you’d like to see additional gameplay and learn more about the game. In the meantime who’s excited for the game’s upcoming release?

Assassin’s Creed: Unity Could Feature 4-Player Co-Op [Rumor]

Assassins Creed: Unity Could Feature 4 Player Co Op [Rumor]Gaming by yourself is fun, but it is also fun and potentially even more fun when played with friends or strangers on the internet. The good news is that if you were worried that the upcoming Assassin’s Creed: Unity game will have some kind of muted multiplayer experience, fret not because apparently a 4-player co-op is one of the features of the upcoming game.

This was revealed by former NeoGAF user, Shinobi602, who stated that Ubisoft is reportedly planning a demo of Assassin’s Creed: Unity. One of the demos is for single-player mode, while the other will show off a 4-player co-op mode which admittedly sounds like fun. After all who wouldn’t want to see four assassin’s running around together, right?

However unlike co-op mode found on other games where a group of players play together to finish the game’s story, collect loot, meet objectives, and etc., Unity’s co-op will be something different. Instead it will feature its own narrative separate from the singleplayer campaign, much like Far Cry 3’s co-op campaign which also featured its own storyline.

Assassin’s Creed: Unity was revealed back in March following leaked screenshots. The game is expected to see a release in the later part of the year where it will be arriving on the PC, the PlayStation 4, and the Xbox One. For gamers with previous gen consoles, rumor has it that Ubisoft is working on an Assassin’s Creed game codenamed “Comet” that will arrive for older consoles.
