Assassin's Creed.. Had alot of hipe up about it. Everyone was exciting and were even more exciting about the "Twist" Well, not only was the twist revealed in the first half hour of the game but it also sucked! your some bar tender who was kidnapped by some company because of his ancestors. one word to describe this little "twist" LAME! when you do play this other character who was kidnapped, you dont do anything but walk around slowly going to bed then walking back to the aminux. wat is the aminux u ask? it's the machine thay u on thats surprisingly just like the matrix that makes u finally play as the assassin during the crusade. As the story unfolds while your playing the bar tender, it's just lame and retarded. no one cares... they just want to climb building and kick templar ASS! The controls are goofy and i didn't even want to play the game for the first 2 hours because i couldn't get used to the controls. and the controls and movment are kinda broken when climbing stuff. There will be a ledge right above you but no! u can't get to it. Theres high points that u have to climb to that shows u the whole city and then ur objectives of getting information on your assassination target apear. Then from there, instead of climbing back down u can jump and land in a bushel of hay. But if your facing the wrong way when you jump then your screwed! all it is is o shhhiiiitttt! Splat! There are 9 assassination targets that are all historcal figures that diassapeaered during the time of the crusade. Each time u kill one u get zapped back to that stupid bar tender that know one cares about. it's tiring! Now lets talk about the combat system.. once u get the hang of it your unstopable. you don't even need to waste your time tring to stealthly assassinate people when you can just kick there ass with a sowrd. Not to mention that they said that u would be able to kill them any way u want which isnt true because it's either u throw knives at them until they die, sneak up and stick a dagger in there neck, or hack there arms off with your trusty blade... boring! also before u can assassinate your target u need to get information on when and where to do it. U basicaly go around easdropping, pick pocketing, interigating, and doing little favors your your assassin buddies to get information. and it's the same stuff each and every time u get a new target. it's so repetetive. The dialogue is very corny and unbeilevable also. the graphics are O.K. but they would look better on a different T.V. then what i use. The enviroment is really amazing and breath taking but not so much the details of the actual world. Plus it dosent have the greatest soundtrack ever... It's fun for maybe the first 3 assassinations and thats it. Im only still playing this game for the acheivments. all in all i only say this game deserves a 2.5 THANK YOU FOR READING!
