?Between Assassin’s Creed III’s formal unveiling in March and all our coverage since, it feels like calculated torture that Ubisoft hasn’t given us press or consumers actual hands on time with the game’s protagonist, Connor Kenway. Not counting prior sessions with the game’s naval battles, it was only last week that the developer/publisher finally granted us hands on time with Connor, the Frontier, and at least one of the urban areas, namely Boston. The fact that Ubisoft was able to tide us over with multiplayer sessions and ship battles speaks to how fully featured Assassin’s Creed III is, yet it was a relief to finally explore and fight in 18th Century New England. There weren’t any treacherous snowy areas to explore and our urban access was limited to Boston, but what we were given was more than enough to fill our three hour hands on session (plus those added minutes we snuck in outside of our scheduled session). This preview opportunity included a 3 day/2 night stay in Boston, MA where Ubisoft provided for the travel and lodging expenses.).
