Ubisoft execs not happy with recent information leak |
Ó
Regarding that little boo-boo that some Ubisoft personnel recently made, the game company has finally broken its silence and has expressed a lot of dissatisfaction about the entire information leak. To quote from the Ubisoft executives:We are clearly displeased that confidential information from Ubisoft has been distributed on the internet. The publication of this type of information can only be harmful to the game development process and we will take all steps necessary to prevent this from happening in the future. We are still investigating the events that lead to this information leak and at this time have no further comment.
To recap those who may not have heard of it yet, some sleepy personnel over at the Ubisoft offices recently uploaded a .rar file onto their FTP server that contained up to 2GB worth of concept art, screenshots, and other assets for PSP game titles, some of which are yet unannounced. Titles that were spied among the said material included:
- Assassin's Creed
- Farcry 2
- Farcry PSP
- Farcry Wii
- Lost
- Naruto
- OpenSeason
- Prince of Persia
- RB6: Vegas
- Rocky PSP
- Splinter Cell 4
- Splinter Cell 5
- Surf's Up
- Star Wars PSP
- Shaun White (Snowboarding game)
- TMNT
- TMNT GBA
As for the person who has placed the confidential information online whether deliberately or accidentally... Well, he really shouldn't have used up all his Sands of Time in one go. It would have been really handy right now.

1st post!!!!!
I want those Star Wars PSP screeshots... and the naruto ones
Man that does suck. As for that last sentence I thing I'm gonna gag from the cornyness *projectile kernels * lol j/k
Um... oops. ^_^;;; Sorry. *ducks*
Why all the secrecy in game development anyway? We all know Diablo III and Starcraft II are well underway, yet we won't even here they've been announced until 3-4 years into their development. What benefit does all the secrecy possibly provide to the developer? (other than magazine exclusive deals..)
it's not like they leaked code or anything else potentially damaging.. sounds like an 'intentional booboo' if you ask me...
Farcry PSP - how savage would that be!!! this "leak" was clearly part of ubisofts plan so everyone will be totally looking forward to their games including me... thanks to the "leak" there getting more publicity and any publicity is good publicity! COME ON EUROPE !!!
Can't wait for the Farcry games, big fan.
Just wondering because this sort of thing can bring about more attention to their work and get people excited. ^^^ in sales!
