So I was poking through Ubisoft's FTP server... [NSF56K, AWESOME PoP & AC ARTWORK]

And I have just come across the motherlode.


Enough gorgeous artwork of AC and PoP to kill a horse. I'm not kidding: some of this stuff is seriously hi-res enough to print poster-sized.

We're talking 70mb tgas in a couple cases, and this JPEG alone is 12,000px wide and 25mb:

And it's all incredible, too. I mean, just.... goddamn. Check them out:

I have a new fucking wallpaper, and it is glorious.

Here's the folders I've found so far:


PoP:

ftp://ftp.ubi.com/ca/Ubidays%202008/PRINCE%20OF%20PERSIA/Hi-Res/


AC:

ftp://ftp.ubi.com/ca/Jeux/Assassin%27s%20Creed/ENVIRONMENTS/

ftp://ftp.ubi.com/ca/Jeux/Assassin%27s%20Creed/CONCEPT%20ARTS/


Also, for some reason, in one of the folders, I found this:

    Anything that isn't PoP or AC?

    Also, Sega has a 720p version of the Night of the Werehog video on their FTP server at 1.5GB, but it always times out before it starts downloading.

    No, I looked. It's pretty much just PoP and AC stuff that's good. The rest of the games (that we care about, at least. I didn't go look in any FOUR WHEEL MUD DRIVING DOGZ folders) mostly just have trailers and regular-res screenshots in their folders, or nothing at all.

    There's some hi-res SC4 character art in there somewhere, actually, I believe it was in the UK root subfolder. But it's just white-matte stuff except for the 40mb yoda and darth vader images, which I couldn't be assed to download. No artwork.

    edit: Same for No More Heros.

    Because if it is... so bought.



    Also, I would like to bring everyone's attention to this one, because it is insane:

    Where can I find the blue pic on the right? That would look awesome on my laptop.

    Lot of high quality stuff here.

    I'm using the tree as both my new wallpaper, and also as inspiration sent to a guy who might be doing the art for my band's album.

    I want to go through the Assassin's Creed stuff tonight.

    On PoP possible spoilers
    The lava stuff that's in one of them looks AWESOME and I don't remember a thing like that from the final game. Damned shame, that would've been neat.
