That'd be really nice, as I'm not planning on getting a PS3.

To be fair though, spix, it's not as if the Keepers archetype isn't very prevalent in good versus evil tales as well as in much of fantasy/historical fiction.

Still, the whole concept of having a group that likes to keep balance is similar too - dare I say identical too - Thief. It's not something I dislike, however; I can't wait for the game to come out! And on xbox, not just PS3;)

I like the justice portrayed in this movie. Usually, games like this have the character serving his own interests, as in Thief: The Dark Project, or, worse serving evil interests, as in Hitman. But this one seems different, at least at first glance. There was at least the implication of a good cause, and an identifiable one. Also, the use of medieval church choir as the man stooped over the corpse was absolutely exquisite.
It's really a shame that it's for console, or I would be sure to follow its progress as keenly I am Dark Messiah's.

I just discovered that IGN has some more newly-released information and a video interview regarding the game. Take a look:

I see what you mean. Such as in Dare Devil, as well.

It looks more like Hitman in a medieval setting than thief due to the whole assasination theme.
Still looks cool though.

The Nizari jihad is a good cause?

Do note the word "implication." Using the movie as a sole resource, it appears very much that the assassination is a good deed.

Depending heavily on your personal politics
