I give this game a four because it runs kinda bumpy, im gong to give it another try on my friends xbox instead of mine but the gameplay is extremely good and I cannot imagine going a day without playing it. The game sure is really addictive. If you dont have the time to play a game like this you wont get very far. If you are like me and play video games for hours at a time this game is for you. for those of you who play when you get a break from work, school, etc. and can only play for an hour a day, dont buy this game. Only for the more hardcore gamers. I will say though that I will give it a five and to look at my other reviews when I actually do try it on my friends xbox and it works better, Enjoy.

the storyline... i have no clue what's it about, there was no subtitle, unfortunately for me, i'm deaf and that does not help. if all those deaf people out there, don't buy the game but i wil say this, the fighting skills are pretty cool but the game is really repetitive, as to the ending i'm not sure what was going on again i'm deaf and that doesn't help. i was really surprise that they nominated this game for game of the year. hope this helps

the immediate draws of the game are obviously the incredible graphic display, and intriguing central character and a violent storyline that takes place during a pivotal point in human history. that said, this is not a game you can just pick up and run with. there is certainly a learning curve, especially when it comes to climbing and combat. the combat engine is a bit clunky and tough to master but works well enough once you ve got it down. the game occassionally moves a bit choppy, particulary when you re up high and can see alot of your surroundings or when there are many hostile characters on screen at once. on the up side, the environment is huge and impeccably detailed, once you learn how to navigate and fight the game is alot of fun, and it doesnt hurt that the story line is for the most part interesting at least. some tasks eventually get repetitive as does the constant commentary and background noise from passersby in the cities but overall i like the game and would buy it again if given a choice.

This game is well worth this price. Very engaging from the beginning. The fight sequences are very cinematic and running along the roof tops is a lot of fun. The missions are repetitive after awhile and this is probably not a game that you'll want to finish more than once but still very enjoyable.
What's great about it: Graphics, fun gameplay, moody theme

I really like this game. Which is odd because I usually hate complicated games. But, it has it's cons. I got the game with my 360 and was used to a ps3 controller. Which was bad. You need to be quick and great with the controller at points, and to know several different moves. Secondly it is very short, but with what I thought to be a great plot. Unfortunately the major plot twist comes before you even are twenty minutes into the game. But the great graphics and likeable story and gameplay, it may be one of the best Games out.
What's great about it: Great plot, exceptional graphics, great gameplay
What's not so great: SHORT, Pointlessly Complicated

I have bought quite a few games that I had every intention on beating but halfway through them I have totally lost interest. This wasn't the case with Assassin's Creed. This game kept me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. The graphics are amazing and the research that Ubisoft Montreal put in is unlike any I have seen in any game. Escaping from guards and leaping from building to building doesn't get old. The only thing that does get old is the way you have to research your targets. Honestly It's a small price to pay to get to your mark. I am not going to give anything away so excuse me if this review is vague. I bought this game for 39.99 and I would have been just as happy if I had payed full price. Even though I have finished the game there is still a bunch to do. Have fun.
What's great about it: Graphics, Gameplay, Story, Research

The game is fun for the first mission, but all of the missions are the same. What kept me playing was simply wanting to see the ending, which could've been better. The graphics are outstanding, in character design and landscape. The acrobatics and fights are also fun as well. If you liked the Prince of Persia games, then you should like this. There are susposed to be two other games in this series. I would get them in hopes that these cons will be gone. As to if it's worth getting, that's up to you.
What's great about it: Amazing graphics, landscape and acrobatics
