Many gamers were first introduced to the next entry in the Assassin’s Creed franchise earlier this year under the moniker of Assassin’s Creed Victory.

Instead it was almost universally panned by both fans and critics for serious gameplay and graphical issues, and was a commercial flop. That hasn’t stopped them rolling up their sleeves and trying again with NBA Live 15. Sean O’Brien, the game’s Executive Producer, felt the need to give fans of the franchise another open letter, following on from last year’s apology for the failings of NBA Live 14....

Like Bloodborne, Demon’s Souls has been a source of frustration for many gamers, as it’s a PlayStation exclusive.
