Honestly can't say I was a big fan of this one ladies and gentlemen.

Gameplay was just too simplistic and repetitive for my liking (probably mainly due to the combat) and the lack of variety with the missions just got old. I also couldn't really get into the plot, though towards the end it was getting pretty awesome ... until the actual ending itself. Eventually though I felt like I was forcing myself to finish it.

Just to be more picky also, this game needed about 100 more spoken dialogue's ... "Who is responsible for this!?" most of the lines got insanely old and annoying.

But still some people just love it. Its something everyone should give a shot and at least rent. The quality is there, with superb graphics, music, animations and everything, it just kind of lacks some cowbell I guess.

I enjoy fighting when it's against 368139607 guys. I just attack all of them like crazy until one attacks, then I counter. Even though they are still taking turns attacking, it's harder to notice because I'm keeping the fight interesting with relentless attacks.

Also, fighting with Hidden Blade = awesome.

That took a few seconds to sink in for me. xD

I wasn't particularly enjoying the fighting though... Everytime my friend got into a fight, only two or three people showed up and they went one on one. Why couldn't they just mob his ass?

Lol, while I can understand some irritation with the clipping, but theres not a whole lot you can do about it. It would be too big of a pain to deal with every little clipping problem there is, but what are ya ganna do? I personally love the game, also, there IS another Assassin's Creed coming out in 2008, though the title is retarded as hell:

"Assassinate Harder"

Oh, and one last thing. While walking, the main character's cloak passes through his sword constantly.

The game is amazing. Jumping around is simple, once you get used to the control scheme, and it does seem clumsy on the 360. But on the PS3 this thing controls flawlessly, just a 15-30 minute learning curve.

The cinematics are beautiful, and the story is told in a very good way. Also, if you didn't read the guide before you bought the game, the first five minutes are a complete shock. XD

I'd love to see more Assassin's Creed games come out, and the story is very open to sequels/prequels.

Spoiler:
It could be set in almost any generation so long as the Animus still exists.

note:: I haven't beat the game yet, don't spoil it for me!


But honestly, probably the first game I can truly consider next-gen. Crowd dynamics are awesome, the combat is fast-paced if you attack, slow and steady if you counter, and the animations for climbing etc, are just flawless. I love that every step has a foothold and handhold, there's no terrible animation where the character just blankly climbs up a wall because they're cool.

Also, Altair = Best video game character ever.

I was just watching my friend play this... Combat seems a little boring. He was also having trouble jumping around, but then he's not very good at learning button combinations and just blames the controller. They do look pretty confusing though...

Also, no matter how many times he did the sneak attack in the middle of crowds, no one noticed? Despite the fact the character has one hand around the dead guy's mouth and another in his back? The AI seems so stupid. He managed to get a large flock of enemies following him, but running from them was easy.

I'm not to sure what I personally think as I didn't get a chance to play it, but from what I've seen it's pretty dull...

I've played and beaten this game. It's one of my favorites as of right now, though the "ending" is dissapointing.

While I can understand what you mean by the Counter Kill destroying the game challenge, they change that factor a little bit in the game. They give you an ability for you to whore out for a while, but then they make that ability seem null.

For example, if you attempt to Counter Kill anyone, they will either A) Grab You, B) Bat you around like a ping pong, C) Knock your blade away and kick your ass to the ground.

While the AI does seem a little dull, they do pick up, and when it does, I lost count on how many times I died from fights just because of one little slip up.

I've gotten to play it. It's really fun.

I can see it getting old fast though. Combat already lost its charm. Enemies are really dumb. Once you get the counter kill ability, any means of a challenge has been eliminated.

Maybe White can give a second opinion here, but...since the game came out, the only reason why some people are hesitating to pick it up is because of "Kane and Lynch". **shrugs** But we have been selling more Assassin's Creed than KnL...

I don't know. I've been craving Need for Speed since the middle of the summer, so I picked up Pro Street instead. Haven't gotten to Assassin's Creed, but my co-workers say it's freaking amazing!

I watched the Gametrailers review. Visually the game looks absolutely stunning, but it does seem to have its issue. Combat seems a little lacking, enemies won't relentlessly attack you - instead they take turns (if you watch the video, you'll see. Its pretty silly). That and they say the game is a little repetitive. Overall GT gave it a good score, like they do with most games. And unlike some reviews out there, it actually seems like they played the game.

It looks awesome but seems to have its flaws, basically. But what games don't?

I'll have to wait on this one since I'm playing so many games right now, but it does look great.

Im about one week away from mine

Honestly though im sure this game will sell big time, its a very interesting concept to come up with, and im sure the release will get many sides of reviews. Game Informer gave it a good review, but Tips and Tricks gave it a pretty weird one from what I have read.



Tips and Tricks still exists? I thought that magazine died with the Sega Saturn.

I've been telling myself I shouldn't rent this game......I should be studying.

But I just realized....if I'm typing this post...I could be playing the game. Shit...rationality.

Ah well, I might get it anyway, depending on how long the game is.


It did? The only review I saw gave it a great score. I'll have to look into that....

Edit: Gamespot and Gametrailers both gave it good reviews. IGN didn't....but everyone knows IGN are idiots anyway.
