seriously, the voice acting in Final Fantasy X was the worse crap I've ever heard. I wanted to rip my ears off everytime I heard the characters speak.

you put historical accuracy as a pro? are u kidding me?

get this game. afterr tis i cant wait for assasins creed 2 which there definetly will be because of the ending of this game. youll know what i mean when you finish. its weird all those markings.

Guys, Assassin's Creed! Apostrophes! (main page).

This game sucked so badly!

Where can I find the patch???

@hactek: The patch automatically downloads and installs when you boot up the game.

Although it's a visually awesome game, and the roof/building running is near flawless I'm only giving this a 7.

Why? Because of the sheer lack of things to do.

You can ride a horse, sword fight, stealth kill, hide in some hay, sit on a bench, mug someone, interrogate and eavesdrop. Oh and climb things.

And that's about it. For the whole game. And it's the same tasks over and over again. Once you have completed the first two or three challenges there is a desperate lack of originality in what follows. Basically the game tries to be a historical mix of hitman in an open-ended grand theft auto city scape. And GTA is as far as they should have looked for gameplay. Dozens of sub-games to keep you happy. New original stuff cropping up all the way through the game.

Someone else commented on the forums about the fact that he can't duck. And while this doesn't spoil the game it would have been a sensible thing to add. Assassin, trying to hide. Hmm let's duck behind this wall. Nope, can't do that.

How about stealing someone's clothes? Nope.

How about concealing the body? Nope.

How about swimming - no, cos that would just be silly.

Don't get me wrong, this isn't a bad game. The gameplay that they have provided is highly enjoyable. The fights are superb and you can relish performing a counter-movement with your sword and wasting an opponent with one blow.

If you have a fear of height, this game will have your stomach clenching when you perform death defying leaps from the top of a minarette.

The plot is tight and intriguing, infact it kept me playing the game far further than I expected to, after being dulled by the repetition.

Hopefully ubisoft will pick up on people's comments and improve the next one even more. I'd be more than happy to try again with some improvements.

It took you guys this long to beat it???? What ever, thanks for the review. Even though it wont help me, because i beat it about 2 weeks ago. But im sure some people were waitng for the review.

Wow. Good thing someone put spoilers right in the first paragraph for someone who HASN'T BOUGHT THE GAME YET!  Thanks for the spoiler warning, Phil...

Now I have to go somewhere else to find a spoiler-free review. Great...

Yes the first paragraph is a huge spoiler!!!!

A spoiler? You find this out within the first 5 minutes of the game.

Nieset game in so long

i thought the voice acting in FFVII was the worst in history

I liked Wintee's review better,guess I'll be renting

Seriously hide the spoiler much?

Historical Accuracy???  and sheeeit, thanks for ruining the story for me - I had gone this long without finding out exactly what the case was, but hey, leave it to PSU to be late and spoil the shlt outta things....thanks PSU!!!

it best played on the 360 because of the better ai, better frame rate, better graphics and doesn;t freeze up.

This had everything going for it. The level design was the key feature in this game. If only it was used more for the gameplay. I wish it had better missions rather than the same old same old. I think the gamepay killed this game for me and the freezing WTF! I finished the game, and I wont touch it again.

This game is soooo boring. great graphics but sooo boring. I fell sleep after 30min of gameplay.

SO shud i rent or buy?

I'd buy it.. i'd give it an 8/10 - the graphics are amazing, the gameplay is cool.. but IMO the story is the let down. Its a boring storyline, and the assassinations themselves arent a major focal point - which is a bit odd cause you'd expect to get "rated", etc on your kills -- like Hitman -- but no.

i think that this game is vert cool man poeple wiil by this cd and maybaye when i buy ps3 i will buy this cd

needed bit more diversity between cities with stuff 2 do but the last mission is the best

i dont understand this every site i go to the ratins on assasin'screed is always different it's not like it's a lil off on each site it's wayy off some sites say it's bad other say it's okay n psu says it's awesome well i',m not gettin it

I just completed the game and I gotta say... the story sucks. The ending sucks. I was sitting there for about 10min after the credits started rolling going "what... what,.... huh.... what just happened?". Sorry to say but not only did they completely wreck the game with the last memory, but they also managed to create one of the stupidest endings in the history of video games. Finish the game and you'll know what I mean.

Awesome game, it is a bit repetetive but overall it deserves a 9 at least

Very good but can be confusing and repetitive

assassin's creed is by far one of the most enjoyable games i've ever played!!! I have already completed the game but find myself still sitting and playing for lengthy periods of time.  It did freeze up on me a few times, but only right after i turned on my console.  If it didn't freeze within 5 or 10 min, than it seems to be okay.  I hear they're going to most likely be making a second game,  i sure do hope so.

I like assassins creed, it doesn't take long to complete but the story is quite boring but going round with swords and daggers is extremely fun.

i dunno if this has been mentioned before, but:

"assassinating innocent by standers as he makes his way through"

This is a load of rubbish; the assassin association revolves areound three tenants, one of which being 'stray your blade from the flesh of an innocent'. Even in the game, you lose health by killing innocents!

However, it is a highly enjoyable game. If you spread your playing out over a few weeks, it doesnt seem repetitive. I'm replaying the game, trying to get all the flags in the hope that a Trophy will demand this!

A PS3 must-have. Happy playing!

Alot of action, dramatic fighting with guards, very large maps, graphics superb.The only thing about thuis game is the story i got lost at the end so therefor i will not buy the next games of Assassins Creed.

why does everyone think assassins creed is amazing ? its just a piece of overhyped trash with the most repetitive and boring gameplay ever seen in a game. The only reason this game did well is because of the worlds new found parkour obssession.
