The Disappointing Assassin

Reviewed by XGreenGorillaX on November 16, 2007  |  report this review

Let me start of by saying: this is an interesting game. You start in a lab or hospital in the future, yes in the future not the time of the Crusades. When I first started I was wondering how they were going to make a game about an Assassin during the Crusades. After a little chatting you get put into this machine that allows you to bring up memories from ancestors. Enough background information let's talk about how the game plays out. When you first start the game the controls can be a little confusing but when you get used to it it feels pretty comfortable. Another cool thing about this game is the historical realism. The city you travel to are all real real places in that time and they are very close to the real thing. Another cool thing in this game is that all the people you assassinate are all people that actually existed and disappeared around that time. This is an awesome game but it has its flaws. First off is the repetitiveness. Your goal is to assassinate nine people and before each assassination you have to investigate your target by doing three different missions persuasion, pickpocket, and eavesdrop. They could have come up with some more creative investigation missions. But, none the less this a great game that I recommend to everyone fond of platform games and action games. From what I have said it probably sounds like I didn't like this game, that's not I really enjoyed this game, but I was disappointed due to all the hype.

WHAT DO YOU THINK: In Assassins Creed you constantly switch from the future to the past. What do think of this?

Graphics:
The cinematic visuals are truly awe-inspiring.
Control:
There's not a very large learning curve and they're reminiscent of Ubisoft's Prince of Persia games.
Music / Sound FX / Voice Acting:
The bustling streets and fighting scenes are well captured, but the voice acting left a bit to be desired.
Play Value:
The story is great and open level design allows for some modicum of replayability.
Overall: One of the best games ever and is a must buy.

Sickest Game ever

This game will blow you away. I cant stop playing it.

You start of in the future (yes it confused me 2)
The reason is you have to go back through your ancestors memories to help change the future.The control scheme is really confusing at first but after the tutorials its like second nature.I really have no complaints about this game except when you get taken out of the memories it takes a while to get back in due to the dialogs with the doctors.

sweetest game ever

this game is the best ever. you wont be able to stop playing it. once you pick up the controller you wont be able to put it down again until early the next morning. in this game you start in the future, in a lab of some sort, with people trying to discover the memories of your ancestors through you with some sort of machine. when in the past you are an assassin that works for the peace of the citizens around you and kill the evil people that corrupt the world. your mission is to assassiante 9 important poeple to regain your status after it was taken from you. i would recomend this game to any one that loves killing people secretly, jumping off buildings and fighting lots of poeple at once. 10 out of 10

I love this game even though I dont have it my friend dose. If you are playing it its awesome. But if you let somebody play it who just dose random killing and dieing (yeah you) and dose not know WTF to do. Then it makes it look sucky. BUT this game is freaking sweet.

its amazing and addictive!

The only thing I got kinda annoyed with was that it takes a while to get used to doing combos. I still have trouble with it sometimes! OVERALL: ITS THE BEST GAME I'VE EVER PLAYED AND ITS A MUST GET!

One player, adventure/action game. it has boring tutorial that you have to go through at the beginning but other than that this game is totally awesome. you can run up practically any building. it takes you through Jerusalem and Acre just to name a few places. everybody in the game has an affect on how you get away from your pursuers. you can either be stealthy like a true assassin or you can just kill everybody(which is pretty fun!!).it has a very good story and is bound to have a sequel. if you havent played this game than you are definetly missing out!!

This is a great game! You play as two people, Desmond and his ancester Altair. But most of the time you play as Altair. Altair is an assassin during one of the Crusades. Your master gives you a target, you travel to the city that you target is located and then you kill him. This is what you have to do with ALL of your kills so it gets very repetitve. The actual assassination is allwas differant so you can look forward to the kill. Assassins creed has a great story line. The only thing wrong with this game is that you have to do the same thing over and over again. Replay value 2.

Good Game

This game is by far one of the best ever made on a next gen console, and may be the best on the 360 right now. However in todays society having a multiplayer funtion cannot hurt a games fun factor. This game is awesome, but for the sole reason that there is no multiplayer, i give it a 4.

Ehhh....

Ok, so the sound & grfx were GREAT and gameplay was pretty fun...FOR ABOUT 4 HOURS!!! Then it bores itself out! With no weapon nor character customization the game become repetative FAST! Your charter & wepons dont upgrade nor change neither do your attacks so it becomes the same thing again & again... Great for a rental but not worth owning, although the story line is great & unique but just go watch it on youtube or something...

A Gem for the 360 :)
