David Hilton, OXCGN's historian takes a look at the recent Part 1 of Assassin's Creed: Linage mini-Movie being produced by Ubisoft's own company, Hybride Studios.

Unlike the game, it's set earlier in the piece, setting things up for young Ezio so that gamers can see where the plot begins, so slip over, take a peek at what he has to say on the matter, and share your thoughts as well.

The sins of the father are visited upon the son…especially if those sins are to arrive too late to save someone and to be descended from a lineage of ruthless killer assassins.

Ezio's father has a secret identity

Assassin’s Creed Lineage (Part 1 of 3) is a short film using real actors and high production values released on Youtube and created by Hybride Studios, responsible for special effect work on the rather artistic films 300 and Sin City.

Ubisoft of course is getting us all pumped up for their second Assassin’s Creed game, which takes place during the Renaissance in Italy. The game’s story follows an up-and-coming Assassin named Ezio over the course of his life after witnessing his father’s death.
