Assasain's Creed

[flamingzaroc121]

I just got this game and i completely love it. Does anyone else have the game, if so what do you think? The controls are completely revamped compared to other types of games in this genre. I haven't gotten far into the story line, but it is so intriguing so far.

I really, really, really, really want it. But only after the PC version is out.

I think the story is really stupid. But the graphics... the modelling of the cities, the accuracy... the vegetation, the people... they are just amazing!!

Absolutely every screenshot I've seen looks like a professionally modeled scene made with the purpose of being a photo!!

well the story of the boy and the animus is stupid, but the story of Altair is awesome

If you guys have ever played the game "Sly Cooper" this game is kinda a more advanced version of that in the free roaming capabilities

this game is one of the most repetitive one i have ever seen...i'm saying rent it a week you'll have more than enough of climbing the tower, save the citizen, assasinate, climb the tower, save that citizen, assasinate...

repeat and rinse for 20 hours...

I love Assassins Creed, got it on my PS3. Yes it is somewhat repetative, but still alot of fun IMO. Played it a little over halfway through now i suppose, and im eager to see how it ends. Im pretty sure they'll release a follow-up, if so its definitely on the top of my most wanted list.

And btw Jade is delicious.. What!? It had to be said!

A funnay:

I dont play consoles anymore so Ill have to wait till it comes out on PC but Im not to sure yet, It looks interesting but it seems a little gimmicky from the promos.

What do you mean by "Gimmicky"? It is a fairly straightforward run, jump, climb, and sword play game. The only gimmick is the ability to look innocuous and blend into crowds.

Yes but all thats just gimmicky stuff, they polish it up to make it look like your "more" thatn just jumping and running and climbing and killing, becuase now, your an assasin!!

Think how black and white one and two thought that the awww of being a god was some kind of major revelation.

I guess my definition of gimmick is different than yours.

"An innovative stratagem or scheme employed especially to promote a project"

Staples of video games for decades (running, jumping, climbing, killing) are not gimmicks in my opinion, just part of the design. Being an assassin is not a gimmick as that is one of the four elements of successful commercial game design (pirates, aliens, robots, ninjas (okay, an assassin isn't exactly a ninja...)). Polish, is not a gimmick, just a good feature. That is where this game really does shine. The cities are wonderfully realized. They look like cities, not tiny villages that people are calling cities.

Like I said earlier, the only gimmick I see is the blend into crowds feature. It is a gimmick. It doesn't always work, but it is often funny (both when it works and when it doesn't).

Ya our defs are different. My defintion of a gimmick is when they play something off for more than it is, such as they seem to be pushing that your an assasin!! a lot.
