New to Assassin's Creed. Wanted to start with the first one. I plan on playing the others. Great game. The ony thing I didn't like about it was it did get a little repetitive doing the same tasks over and over again before you would kill your target.

One of the best games available on any gameing system to date. The graphics are pretty amazing and perfectly suited for the game. Well crafted missions and a very smooth flowing game with minimal loading. Voicing and cutscenes are well done and the open world is ridiculously large. Controls are easy to learn and character movement couldn't be less of a hassle. The only issue I had, and it was probably a coincidence, was that this game assassinated my Xbox. It gave me the red ring of death which I was able to bypass a couple times but now is completely dead. Good reason to have BB warranty, now upgraded to an Elite.

The game is truly awesome to look at. The controls are seemless and on point. Crawling on buildings are as easy as walking. The story is pretty good. the ending kinda sucks though but it does leave an opening for future games. Ubisoft really did a great job with this game. It offers plenty of weapons to choose from and it has a nice twist at the end but if you pay attention you kinda can see it coming.

This game has great potential. The graphics are great, very realistic game play and I actually hold my breath when doing a dive off of high buildings. This game is very repetetive. You fight the same type of soldier with just a different uniform over and over again. You replay the same cities. And the ending is so abrupt you don't even know it is an ending. This game had a lot of hype and is addicting but leaves you wondering what you spent all your hours doing. Why did I just spend 3 hours looking for every eagle point?

Solid Action Game

Assassin's Creed is a great action game from Ubisoft. You play an Assassin who's job it is to take out several villains throughout the cities of Acre, Jerusalem, and Damascus. Killing them involves pickpocketing someone for information, interrogating someone, and then going in for the kill. All of this is very fun, though repetitive. The environments are a lot of fun to roam around in and the controls make jumping from rooftop to rooftop a breeze. The combat is fun, with multiple weapons, techniques, and involvable crowds and environments. I recommend this game to any fan of action games, though heed the slight repetition.

I have to admit I disliked the game at first and judged it before actually taking the time to play the game.
Pros:
The game has an intriguing story that will develop even more when the next Assassin's Creed comes out. I had plenty of fun slaying people in the open and using stealth to kill in secret. The graphics are amazing and by far some of the best I've seen on the 360. Also, the side quests make the game last longer and I had fun terrorizing the kingdom in pursuit of flags and templars.
Cons:
I was discouraged by the repetitive look of the game but I was not being fair because I never got into the game. The repetition may be just a bit annoying but if you sit down and give the game some attention, you will be hooked to the game. The game overall is still awesome.
AND WHEN DOES #2 COME OUT??

this game is awsum... u can climb anything, kill anyone, and ur an assassin. graphics are wonderful and moves are easy and cool. the game does get really boring after u beat it because theres nothing to do but collect flags... but the story is compelling and long enough to satisfy u. the ending SUCKS!!! it just leaves u hanging with random and stupid messages.
... its a good game though... buy it!! (if u dont already have it)
