Patrice Has Been Found!

@pukellunkett:

*Revelation

All he's missing is hair as luscious as Brian Crecente.

That dude got me wet. Wait I spilled a glass of water on myself 10 minutes ago.

@GauntFaceKiller: Well its been quite a while since then, as you suggest its probly easier to find again since its not the latest and hottest piece of a... i mean, news on the block anymore.

@Luke Plunkett: Huh, I did a quick Google image search and you do kinda look like this Patrice guy, sans the wonderful hair.

Also, I found an old post (Oct 2008) at GiantBomb titled "Luke Plunkett is a tool" I couldn't tell if it was a joke or not. The guy basically said that you were bringing shame upon your whole country. I'm sure you saw it so I'm not trying to act like it's some great big revalation, I'm just confused as to whether or not he was serious.

I probably would have understood him better if he was just speaking French, the accent is pretty thick.

Aside from that, it sounds awesome. He sounds like he knows what he's talkign about. I loved, loved, LOVED the first one. I'm really looking forward to this game.

I would suggest a new Kotaku feature.
"Stalku Kotaku"
You can add Patrice, Phil Harrison, and J Allard to the list, to name a few...

@okenny :) ...building bridges (to hide under):

More like John Davison. But French.

I thought the cartoon was a brilliant commentary of how Ubisoft bizarrely advertised the game by sticking a random cute producer on and selling the game on her sex appeal alone.

Satire isn't pretty.

@okenny :) ...building bridges (to hide under): Only in my dreams do I have hair like that

I've heard that accent before.

@last_stamp:
Really? I just found it on Google image search under "Jade Raymond Cartoon"

And while searching I came across the Kotaku article about Ubisoft threatening Something Awful with legal action. Found a good gag about Patrice:

"In the meantime, I'm deleting all known copies of my Patrice Desilets erotic fanfic comics, just in case. It's a shame, as I really thought the beard turned out perfect."

After todays post that joke becomes a great deal funnier!

@GauntFaceKiller: please dont go there EVER

Ackers

@GauntFaceKiller: Oh yes, it ended up being really hard to find. A ubisoft employee told me about it when it was already sort of tabu but my friend didnt give up and searched the internets near and far, and behold, eventually found that magnificent piece of art.

@Nirach:

Altair, your breath smell of titties!

@Nirach:

Dude don't even fucking joke about that.

@cavalerie: Eeyy, Ezio, iss your cousin!

Friends ? Oh shit I hope they don't pull off another GTA4

WAIT A MINUTE???!!! Doesn't he sorta look like Luke Plunkett a little?

My PSYCHE gauge has just been refilled.

I hope that what he's been saying doesn't mean the end to free running that made the first one worth the effort.

@Mupp: Aww, man. Most disturbing comment I've read in a while.

interesting. For someone that hasn't played the first one, he makes this sound pretty good.

If i had ovaries i bet his beard could make me pregnant.
And i wouldnt mind it one bit.

Mupp

Ahhh Jade...

Remember that cartoon?

A magnificent specimen of a man!

The music is beautiful.

@riffleraffle: Yes, because if you're a game producer you HAVE to be unattractive. Christ.

Defenestrated

@riffleraffle:
I agree man. It was a bizarre choice on Ubisofts part and I'm glad most people saw through it.

@riffleraffle: Of course it's because of her sex appeal because she clearly did not earn her way to the position of producer! If you're a chick in the industry, you HAVE to be unattractive.

he is the ultimate life form, oh and the accent, sooo charming, hyphnotysing

@Skot: Ezio Auditore di Firenze-- Ezio Auditore of Florence.

Bakeroo

please, no more sci fi stuff like in AC1... :x just make it the game we all were expecting and waiting for back when AC 1 came out.. :)

Despite your praises, I had questioned this man's greatness. However, now I've seen his shoes. The soothing blue. The hip but quirky and approachable plaid.

I will never doubt you again, Kotaku.

Anyone with any Italian smarts pick up the lead character's name, so you can unbutcher my spelling?

Etsio Olitoré Difirenzé = Hell of a name!

@GauntFaceKiller:

Best part for me is that no one would ever mention the names of the people who drew it...and it was pretty obvious.

I still boot up their webcomic every so often too.

So pretty much you get to be an Italian Bruce Wayne in the Renaissance?

@Lainface:
"If you're a chick in the industry, you HAVE to be unattractive. "

Yeah that's about right.

@pukellunkett: You are aware that GiantBomb allows users to blog. This is a blog post by a user and as you might have noticed when reading any comment anywhere, the people that are full of crap are usually the same that think that their opinion is important

develin

Been to Firenze... Been to Venezia... I'd love to see their adaptation of those cities.

@Lainface: Unless she's actually the person who came up with the idea for the game, started the creation of the IP, and wrote the story, I don't see any other logical reason for her to solely be the only member of the staff to talk about the game.

He is rather dreamy.
