Weekly Game Review: Assassin's Creed

[Magic Flyin' Lemur]

Holy effing hell, I agree with you on a game! Well maybe not entirely; I thought it was a little better than you seemed to. I bought this the day it came out and I was incredibly excited at the prospect of a game that was stylistically similar to PoP: Sands of Time (the sequels are dead to me). I quickly realized that was not to be, but I still enjoyed the first couple missions, then got really really sick of it. I had more fun exploring the city and throat-stabbing the occasional suspicious guard than actually playing the game. I do love the crazy opium addicts (in the arab-controlled cities) and drunks (crusader-controlled city), since I perfected the art of the "no, fuck YOU" shove-back move. Anyhow, yeah you pretty much nailed the game.
