Assassin's Creed AI Better on 360?
"Improved threading" to make crowd AI superior.

We've suspected Assassin's Creed was coming to Xbox 360 ever since its E3 unveiling, but only recently did Ubisoft disclose the poorly-kept secret to the world. What's even strange is that the Xbox 360 version will actually sport better crowd artificial intelligence, according to a report on IGN.

"While the PlayStation 3 and 360 versions of Assassin's Creed are virtually identical, Raymond did say that on the 360 the team is putting a special emphasis on achievements. The hardware also allows for improved threading, which will improve even further the crowd AI," the impressions read.

We doubt this will have much of an impact on the actual gameplay (it's only the crowd AI and doesn't effect how combat works or influence enemy AI), but an interesting note, considering how many speculate PlayStation 3 will eventually be superior due to the Blu-ray drive.

While i agree it won't make much difference to the actual gameplay of Assassin's Creed....A more lifelike crowd certainly will make the game feel more immersive...

Just wondering is this an example of the 360 being easier to program or just laziness not figuring out how to use the PS3's Cell more effectively?
 
Plus I'd imagine they've had a bit longer to play around on the 360 hardware as well.

Looks promising this game, going to keep my eye on it. ;)
