Summary

Game Description

See more videos ››

While the exact details are unclear, historians agree that the origin of the term "assassin" stems from a Muslim cult that came to power during the Crusades. Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed casts the player in the role of one of these assassins. The gameplay appears to blend stealth elements (Ubisoft calls it social stealth because the player often attempts to blend into the crowd) with more traditional sword-fighting.

Pretty Solid

Pros Cons
Innovative concepts Doesn't live up to expectations
Amazing visuals Repetitive gameplay
Intense action

I really liked this game. I liked the gameplay and the whole idea of stalking and stuff like that. The only thing i didn't like was how the game gets repetitive. Sneak here, kill that. I felt like i was playing a polished Prince of Persia, believe me that's not a bad thing, this game is great overall, especially the first time through.

I bought it on PC

Pros Cons

you are Altair, an elite assassin. you have disgraced and must redeem yourself by assassinating the 9 who exist to create a new world.
this was a pretty good game. but it gets repetitive after a while. the story lacked in some places too. and there were boring cutscenes.

get this one

Pros Cons
Addictive gameplay
Tight controls
Engaging story
Amazing visuals

If you don't have it, you should. I liked the in game tutorial that allowed me to just pick up the controller and play. I really like the concept of the game. I didn't read any reviews on it before buying it so I was pleasantly surprised by that. You will certainly like the way the game looks and plays.

Gonna have a good time.

Pros Cons
Addictive gameplay
Innovative concepts
Intense action
Amazing visuals
Engaging story

Fun is a game that draws you back to play it with friends, your familiy friends and people your age, thats what assassin's creed does if not by the time the loading screen shows up. With paths to chose and things to do , assassin`s creed live up to all expectations(except being able to fly). For a wicked sick game and twisted hardcore gaeplay this is a game not to pass.
