Ubisoft today announced Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon for Wii. This isn’t a traditional Ghost Recon game of course Ubisoft would never do that for Wii, it’s an on rails Ghost Recon game. The good news is it supports co-op, and being in third person is at least a small change-up for the oversaturated Wii rail shooter genre, and from the video here it does seem like they’re going for a proper arcadey feel rather than a perhaps to methodically paced take like some of the still fun Resident Evil rail shooters went with.

Steam is having a sale on one Ubisoft game every day of the week for one week. Today’s game is Assassin’s Creed for $10. A steal for one of the best selling shit games of this generation. Here’s a list of other Ubisoft titles available on Steam, perhaps tomorrow we’ll be lucky enough to get Grey’s Anatomy: The Video Game for 50% off or CSI: NY® – The Game for only $20. Only one downside to this amazing event, Steam doesn’t carry this shit:

Ubisoft is once again proving that they have no idea what gamers want. First they turn the good natured hero Prince into the dark Prince, now just because he’s on the DS they have to turn him into the squatty little boy Prince.

From the PR:
Exclusively for Nintendo DS: Use the DS stylus to master the acrobatics, strategy and fighting tactics of the most agile warrior of all time.
Immerse yourself in the captivating Prince of Persia universe with an original and independent story that closely coincides with the action of the console & PC editions of the game.
Unique visual style: Brand-new art design delivers incredible environments in over 50+ maps. Explore deserted cities, dark labyrinths and forbidding jungles to battle the evil Corruption.
Play as the all-new character: the Magus: Switch between the Prince and this mysterious new ally to fight, solve puzzles and utilize his magical powers to make your way through the corrupted land.

The screen wouldn’t look half bad if the Prince didn’t look like a kid with his mommies scarf wrapped around his face.
