Assassins Creed

The first game in the Assassins Creed franchise is set in 1191 AD, when
the Third Crusade was tearing the Holy Land apart. Shrouded in secrecy and
feared for their ruthlessness, the Assassins intend to stop the hostilities
by suppressing both sides of the conflict. Players, assuming the role of the
main character Altair, will have the power to throw their immediate environment into chaos and to shape events during this pivotal moment in history. Yes, you did read right the first part of the franchise which means there will be a second. An because of that the game doesnt live up to its full potential that I thought it would. You do play in two time periods past and present. The reason why you are doing this ill keep secret but your basically relving your ancestors previous life in a matrix style of jacking into the past. The visuals look amazing and the combat is ok but gets very repetative. The goal is the easiest to follow kill 9 guys thats it. thats the whole game right there. But to kill them you need to do a few side missions to learn more about them and the way of the land. Then you can kill them. So your looing at about 6-9 hours of gameplay. There are 3 cities in which you journey and explore. All in all the game is great just seems as if they hyped it up way to much and its going to let some people down. I say spend the money on MASS EFFECT and rent Assassins creed. But I wanna play more before i say its 100% not worthy of purchase. Again wensday TNA wil try to give you a full review.
