Assassin's DS dated, uses DSi camera News • News • Eurogamer.net

News DS

Put your face on "Wanted!" posters.

Ubisoft has confirmed Assassin's Creed II: Discovery for DS, and plans a launch alongside its big-console siblings on 20th November.

The DS game tells a slightly different story by following hero Ezio to Spain, where he attempts to rescue fellow assassins from the grip of the Inquisition. As he delves deeper, however, he uncovers a Templar plot to sail west and uncover the New World.

Developer Griptonite (also making PSP and iPhone versions) is at the helm and hard at work providing a pacey and intricate platform romp.

The best bit, though, will be using the DSi camera to take pictures of your face and stamp them on "Wanted!" posters in-game.

Fun fact: this feature will mean UK copies won't work if you've a US machine (or vice versa). All DSi enhanced carts are region coded.

Another fun fact: the region coding doesn't affect DS lites or phats.

Great reward for DSi adopters there Nintendo...

Another fun fact - the DSi is more powerful than the DS lites.

Griptonite... I remember that name from the bootup sequence of Spiderman Web of Shadows, a pretty nice game.
