Is Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced A Good Remake?

Is Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced A Good Remake?

Author: Game Informer July 10, 2026 Duration: 1:42:10
Ahoy! It's the dawn of a new day on The Game Informer Show, and we've got a salty crew of sea-dogs ready to tackle the biggest news and games out right now. First up, the video boys Alex and Eric discuss their experiences seeing Summer Games Done Quick in person. And Wesley LeBlanc has a few opinions about The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time too, after finishing a fresh replay.

Then, we dig into Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced with Wes and Charles Harte, to determine whether this fresh take on a pirating classic is a treasure or not. Alex and Marcus Stewart both have some indies to discuss, too: Don't Let It Starve and Cat Mail Co., to be specific. It's a podcast packed to the gills, so settle in, get some grog, and sing a shanty as we debut another episode of The Game Informer Show!
