Gameplay footage. Actual gameplay footage. Five, glorious minutes of it. Welcome to the world of Assassin's Creed: Black Flag. Join us on a jaunt through the woods. With gunslinging moves that would make Dante weep. All is forgiven Ubisoft. Flowing seamlessly into an intense naval battle at the midpoint, on gameplay alone Black Flag has already outshone Assassin's Creed 3 and with a protagonist that isn't a complete prat...all is forgiven.

To arms my men! Man the comments! Draw up the keyboard! FIRE!
