2 out of 5 stars Why read a long review?   December 8, 2008
The game is worth the rent. Beautiful visuals, decent storyline, fun combat, very repetitive. Great idea to run up walls and reach very high points but not worth the continuing side quests.

"Thanks for playing. Game Over"

This game is bit of a bore. It's repetative, slow moving, overly complicated, and it lacks character. It looks cool, but 3 different gamers in my house all lost interest in it after getting about 15-25% through it.


3 out of 5 stars Beautiful game, engaging story, repetitive play   November 26, 2008

Assassin's Creed was unfortunately a victim of its own hype.

Though the story was superb, and the graphics astounding, Assassin's Creed's gameplay mechanics are its downfall.

Combat is boring and repetitive. After you get a certain ability, you are more or less invincible; the only way you could die is from your own stupidity.

Missions also become very boring very quick. Each city you go to has the exact same side quests, albeit in different locations. Unless you have reason to plod through each side quest (Xbox Gamerscore for example), there's no reason to waste your time on them, and suddenly the game seems a lot shorter.

Despite the repetition, Assassin's Creed's story was fantastic. If nothing else, it's worth rushing through the missions just to get through the story.

While I wouldn't have recommended Assassin's Creed to anybody at its $60 launch price, the current going rate for the game is a small price to pay for a delightful story.



4 out of 5 stars Experience a beautiful game!!   November 23, 2008
Don't want to spoil anyone but I played the game when it came out and finished it in a few days. Just a great experience being in the town/cities and the outskirts while horseback riding. The AI are fairly smart and makes you feel the world is alive around you.

I had a hard time with the controls in the beginning but got the hang of it about an hour later.



3 out of 5 stars meh   November 20, 2008
