the DLC is set in an alternative reality where after america gains it's independance, george washington takes advantage of the power he has and becomes king of america, and an evil king to boot. as Connor you must work to take back america's freedom once again from the oppressive king of america. FOX news is going to have a field day.

this DLC is episodic and will come out in three separate downloads.
i honestly think this is bizarrely awesome and at this point is a must buy for me. bold move ubisoft, bold move.

Not trying to discredit your opinion, but it's just an interesting piece of information that makes sense within the DLC's canon (or lack thereof).[/quote]What game was it that showed that, or was it the company? I haven't played the last AC game that came out or the handheld games so I don't know. I'm just upset that one of my favorite figures is going to be put into a bad light that is the opposite of his beliefs. Oh well, I'll live with it.[/quote] Remember those glyph puzzles you did in AC2 and Brotherhood? Those are the coolest minigames in the history of gaming because of how they expand the universe. Washington had an Apple, the moon landing was real, but Templar funded, every single supernatural act depicted in the Bible are illusions, etc. Also remember, just because a historical figure possesses a Piece of Eden, doesn't mean they use it for bad.
