Rayman, Assassin's Creed, Prince of Persia: Ubisoft, the French giant, shines in platforming, adventure and open worlds. RomWize re-ranks the publisher's best games by its re-evaluated scores, each with its current score, its versions, their rarity and their collector value.
"The return of this cult beat-em-up is a treat: vivid pixel art, geeky references and four-player mayhem. The Streets of Rage style progression with upgrades adds depth. A bit repetitive solo, but in a group it is a guaranteed party."
"Ubisoft Reflections deliver an almost supernatural Driver where Tanner shifts between drivers mid-chase. The pulp presentation is delicious, San Francisco hums and the cheeky direction makes everything forgivable."
"Far Cry Compilation groups several Far Cry saga entries on PS3. An economical way to discover the complete franchise or complete one's collection. Each game brings something unique to the saga."
"A free party-fighter in the Smash mould, accessible and snappy, betting everything on multiplayer. The core is solid and the fights readable, but the monetisation and repetition eventually wear thin."
"AC I and AC II Welcome Pack, the saga's founding duo in one package. The first for its pioneering ambition, the second for its Renaissance perfection. Ideal for starting AC or gifting to a budding fan."
"A watercolor storybook told in verse that hides a turn-based RPG built on an interruptible timeline. Flying through painted backdrops is pure poetry. The combat stays simple, yet the whole thing radiates a rare, melancholy grace."
"Direct sequel to No More Heroes, Travis returns to climb the ranking again after a personal vendetta. Refined combat with possible dual katanas, more varied levels, wacky 8-bit pet management mini-games. Suda51 still on form, more mature writing but humor intact. Bosses as memorable as the first entry, unique atmosphere preserved. A sequel worthy of the cult, sometimes surpassing the original on pure action."
"Ghost Recon reboot set in futuristic Mexico with advanced technologies. New drone command and improved cover system. Visually impressive for its era. The most modern Ghost Recon of the Xbox generation."
"The Ezio Saga compiles AC II, Brotherhood and Revelations, Ezio Auditore's complete trilogy. Italian Renaissance then Rome then Constantinople. Monumental content, one of the best trilogies on PS3."
"Console adaptation of Far Cry featuring tropical jungle and Jack Carver's animal powers. Successfully lush atmosphere, solid hybrid FPS-TPS gameplay. Primitive powers add an original dimension. One of the best FPS games of the Xbox generation."
