    I own the first two assassin creed games and have rented and beaten both brotherhood and revelations. I really like the length of story line took me nearly thirty hours and I still have a few side missions left. The variety of weapons and things you can do are fun. The frontier addition is fantastic, being able to go hunt bear, elk, mountain lion, bobcat, rabbits, beavers and more, and it's also very large allowing a lot of exploring and fun. You can also be the captain of a ship and have several missions in the sea battling other ships and things of the like. This is all in addition to a fun multiplayer experience. Several game modes for team play or free-for-all. Overall this is my favorite game franchise and this may be the best game they have made yet. The frontier, storyline, naval warfare, and multiplayer are all fun.

    If you don't have this game go get it and the others in the series. Actual gameplay hours for days or if you are like me you try to get everything. The cut scenes are like animated movies. My wife doesn't play but she will watch it like a movie for hours. These days I can't even play unless she is around to watch. The story behind these games are that good.

    Assassin's Creed 3 is decent game that tries to do too much. The setting is well realized, the game-play, focuses on combat instead of stealth. With the addition of the naval missions and the new storyline, this game is my favorite of the series.

    i can give this game, based on the other 4 before it, a 6.75 out of 10. The game play overall is pretty awesome and the storyline is fairly well written, however, after 18 hours of gameplay, it seems to become more and more drawn out. What i dont understand is why the game sets you all the way on the other side of a map, having to travel and fast travel to get to the next memory. Some level have glitches in them. Some levels seem almost impossible to beat without having to work outside the walkthrough of how the game designers had intended for it to be played. I am a huge fan of AC2 and Brotherhood, this game was a slight let down. All the while, keeping you sucked into the game play. Just dont be afraid to hold "O" during the cut scenes to skip them...... as much as i want to listen to the story, the cut scenes are too frequent.

    I'm a big AC fan, I have played every game in the series and this one I would rank low on my list, not lowest but low. I like the core aspects of AC and this one muddied them, Connor was unlikable, the hunting was fun at first but got tedious, the trading was annoying, and there were too many cut scenes in the middle of what should have been assassination goodness. But, the work is beautiful, exploring pre-revolution US was a lot of fun and the battles at sea were a lot of fun.

    Assassin's Creed III has drastically changed the series formula in a brand new, fitting way. The simpler controls are much more easier to use to traverse and utilize in combat. Also the graphic have improved greatly from the seamless transfer from Ezio Auditore da Firenze to Conner Kenway between installments in the franchise. This game is a phenomenal step forward from last year's release of Revelations. You are now able to assassinate in Colonial New York, Boston, Homestead, and the Frontier, and occasionally the open ocean during privateer contracts. The game lasts around 30 plus hours, which you can learn lots of history from. Don't miss out on the Battle of Bunker Hill, the Boston Tea Party, or Paul Revere's Midnight Ride, order now!! P.S. The Steelbook Case was an awesome addition!

    One of my favorite Assassin's Creed games, with one of the best stories involving America's great settlement. Loved it and even bought the season pass later to continue the quest.

    The story-line is so much different than the other games which is a relief. The setting has changed along with the character, which has made this game one of my favorite of the series.

    Another solid chapter for the AC franchise... If you've played either of the previous titles, there isn't much that is awe inspiringly new, but you get a solid game with great storyline (at least that's my opinion). If you haven't played any of these titles, this is a great one to start. Slow could be my TV while a decent HD TV it's 7 years old and developments have improved 100 fold in new models.

    I have played the first 4 AC and have enjoyed playing them all. I think that there are good and bad with each one, but they have done a great job to improving the game play by taking the good and the bad of each previous game and bring it to the table for AC3. Out of all of them I have enjoyed the game play the best out of AC3. If you love a game that can be played for hour this is it.

    I really enjoyed this game. I've always been fascinated by the revolutionary war so it was great to play an Assassin's Creed set in this time period. Of course the gameplay is more of the same, which can get a bit old, but the nice story and envrionments make it a great addition to the series.

    Assassin's Creed is always a great saga that continues to get better with each one. The graphics are amazing, the story is rewarding. However, on parts of the synchronization when you reach the top (with the Native American) there is no leap of faith. I tried leaping out of the trees at different angles, and splat! your dead.

    I love the other Assassins Creed games. This one is no different. The visuals are amazing. Great story but a little slow for my taste at the begining. After playing for 5 min. it seemed like I was unstopable. Push this button and then that button, boom the enemy was down.

    This game was bought for my husband. He has all the other Assassins Creed games and was only missing this one. The graphics on this game are so detailed and look real. I love watching him play! I guess the storyline let's me get into the game.
