Paramount Pictures have released the official international trailer for The Gambler, led by Academy Award-nominee, Mark Wahlberg.

Jim Bennett (Wahlberg) is not your average English Professor. He runs in an illicit, underground world of gambling and isn’t afraid to bet on himself, when he borrows money from a gangster (Williams) and offers his own life as collateral. To make matters worse, Bennett risks his career when he becomes involved with one of his students (Larson), who knows about his gambling.

To keep ahead, Bennett pits his creditor against the operator of a gambling ring (Alvin Ing) and leaves his dysfunctional relationship with his wealthy mother (Lange) in his wake. Challenging himself to play on both sides of the betting table and capture the attention of loan shark, Frank (Goodman) . . . Bennett discovers that all in, is the only way out.

Let us know what you think of The Gambler in the official trailer below.

Assassin’s Creed: Rogue Forces You to Question the Creed

Assassin's-Creed-Rogue-Question-The-Creed-KeyArt-01

For years we’ve joined the Assassins on their quest to free people from the “tyrannical” order of the Templars. But, as the old saying goes, there is always two sides to every story, and before gamers get to experience the opposition’s point-of-view first-hand in Assassin’s Creed: Rogue, they can revisit some of the most memorable assassinations in the franchise’s history with a different perspective.

Visit www.assassinscreedrogue.com now and relive all of the impactful assassinations carried out in Acre, Damascus, Florence, New York, Boston, Constantinople, the Caribbean and everywhere in-between. Then, listen to the understandings and opinions of the victims given by both sides and, perhaps, you’re own opinion might be altered. Learn their intentions via the interpretations of familiar fellow Brotherhood member Shaun Hastings, and Abstergo employee Melanie Lemay.

Come November 14, everything we’ve been trained to believe may come crashing down as Ubisoft‘s Assassin’s Creed: Rogue launches for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
