Great, engaging game that has replay value because the missions are so big and involving. Will not be disappointed if you purchase and are familiar with the other Assassins Creed games.

I am a big fan of this series. That being said, so far this feels like a weaker installment. The storyline is interesting and has depth. The little twist after the first few sequences was a welcome surprise. There are numerous graphical glitches which are very irritating and more frequent than any of the previous installments. The controls have changed somewhat to make them "easier." I was perfectly comfortable with the old controls, so didn't really see the need for the change. The characters also feel heavier and less maneuverable at times, while simultaneously being too quick to leap forward when you'd like to stop. Overall, good, not great. I'll finish it for sure, because I'm addicted to the overall story of Desmond, but I was a little disappointed.

Buy it. You'll like it. Instant classic. I haven't played it yet I'm just trying to get my 25 reward zone points. I got this game for my sons birthday. He says a lot of kids at his school play multi player together.

This is an overall fun game, but the controls are a bit more difficult and take a lot of adjusting to. The story is similar to the others, just in America. It is kinda fun to stop following the storyline and go out hunting and exploring.

Love this game. I keep coming back to it day after day. It never gets old. The story just keeps developing as i play and make decisions. Very interesting game. If you want to break from the story play the multiplayer online. Simply great game! Looking forward to finishing it and buying part 4.

This is the first game of the Assassin Creed series that I have ever played and I love it. The graphics are amazing and the storyline is very powerful and even emotional at times. I love this game so much I am going to buy the rest of the games of this series and play them all from start to finish.

This latest installation to the Assassin's Creed franchise had hits and misses. The hit is the improved gameplay. motions were more fluid than in the past. However the story was far less interesting. Connor as a character was not compelling. The game added new features such as the sea battles. Some may like it but for me, meh.
Lots of side quests. They had no purpose and really did not enhance the game. BUT if you have LOTS of time to kill this is for you. Overall the game was good but not great.

This is the best game I have ever played. I love the graphics and the new style of fighting. I especially like the tree climbing ability. You don't have to play all of the previous games to understand what is happening.

For me , AC 2is still the best of the series. Gameplay is still fun and the location, but I am just playing it to get more story of the modern setting.

Bought this as a gift for my nephew who has nothing but good things to say about the game. An avid gamer, he's had previous editions of Assassins and is thrilled with the challenge, storyline and graphics improvements.

Great entry in the Assassin's Creed line - the new setting in the Revolutionary War is a great setting for gameplay and the character development is good. And of course, the gameplay is top notch!

It's well worth the money. Tons of things to do. The game is huge. After all missions and side quest, over 40 hours of game play.

With the game's mix of a hugely interactive open world, a compelling setting, and a finely tuned combat system, I'm eager to return to delve even further into the Animus.
