Editorial Review: Product Description: Assassin's Creed redefines the action genre. Assassin's Creed merges technology, game design, theme, and emotions into a world where you instigate chaos and become a vulnerable, yet powerful, agent of change. The setting is 1191 A.D. The Third Crusade is tearing the Holy Land apart. You, Altair, intend to stop the hostilities by suppressing both sides of the conflict. You are an Assassin, a warrior shrouded in secrecy and feared for your ruthlessness. Your actions can throw your immediate environment into chaos, and your existence will shape events during this pivotal moment in history. Next-gen gameplay - The proprietary engine developed from the ground up for Xbox 360 allows organic game design featuring open gameplay, intuitive control scheme, realistic interaction with environment, and a fluid, yet sharp, combat mechanic Average Rating:
 Rating:  - DirectX 10.1 support, or lack thereofAssassin's Creed for the PC was released with DirectX 10.1 optimizations which enabled better performance for 10.1-compliant video cards, which are currently only made by AMD/ATI. Ubisoft has now patched the game to disable DX10.1 support, and has no announced plans to reinstate it. Several websites have connected this action with the co-marketing agreement between Ubisoft and Nvidia, suggesting that this is a deliberate and corrupt move to cover up Nvidia's weaker performance on 10.1 games.

Superbly done guys.) Fight scenes (graphics and action) are also enjoyable- which is the meat and potatoes of what this game is all about. And the storyline is intriguing enough to keep me interested- probably why I originally bought the "director's cut" version. Also, I have Windows Vista Ultimate for my operating system, and it doesn't have any problem with the game. Read More Rating: - OK...A few reviewers summed up this game very well. I just wanted to nod my head in agreement... Excellent Graphics, Nice open ended gameplay, Good voice acting. Play control is not too bad (takes a while to get used to). Boring, repetitive missions and slow story line. Game gets old after a few hours. Rating: - GarbageSave your money. I have tried to find something positive to say about this game but I can't. This has to be one of the worst games I have played in years (and I play them all). It is unimaginative, repetitive, quickly becomes boring and frustrating after you (and I am not exaggerating) do the same missions 30 times, climb the same towers 50+ times, see the same graphic cutaway 50+ times, save the same person in the crowd 30+ times, etc. Also you are not completely "playing" the game, every 15 minutes ... Read More Rating:  - Let DownPut it this way. Play the game for about an hour and you get the whole thing. Basically you do the same thing over and over and over and over and over again. The coolest thing about this game is climbing buildings and stuff, and that gets very boring after about 20 min. Dang, I had high hopes to. Another thing...the dialog is terrible! Not only does it last FOREVER, you cant skip it! Guess the programmers thought a lot of themselves and their "Cinematic" skills. Stick to the 1's and 0's guys! Read More |
