    Best AC Game Yet

    Video games are supposed to be fun. AC: Syndicate is fun. Yes, it is another AC game. But the time period, Batman launcher, tons of side missions, and lack of serious glitches make this a must play game.

    A Return to Form

    After the lackluster (and buggy) Assassin's Creed Unity released last year, it's relieving to be able to tell you that this latest installment in the franchise is a dream come true. This is the most fun I've had playing an Assassin's Creed game since II. The new rope shooter makes the chore of climbing buildings a breeze and now I can't imagine going through future installments without it. Evie is a delightful new protagonist and a refreshing change of pace from the series' typical male-lead outings. As for the story that takes place outside of the Animus, let's just say there's a lot left to be desired. It's essentially made up of a few quick cutscenes sprinkled throughout the main story that ultimately left me wondering why they even bothered including them in the first place. In the end, if you're tired of the Assassin's Creed formula, then Syndicate may not be the game for you. But, if you're completely new to the series or have sat out on the past couple of outings and are itching to jump back in, then I can't recommend Assassin's Creed Syndicate enough!

    This is one of the most fun AC games I've ever played. The are a lot of unique missions like the train robberies, bounty hunts, gang fights, fight clubs, etc. There's so much to do (much like the Batman Arkham Asylum trilogy) and you can switch between the twin assassin's on the fly except for the story missions (memory sequences) that are specific to each character. The gold edition. Is definitely worth the price especially of you have Gamer's Unlocked since you get 20% of the price. The gold edition gives you a permanent XP boost, the season pass for all DLC and other packs unlocked right from the start. GREAT DEAL and FANTASTIC GAME!!!

    I like Assassins creed syndicate because of the storyline of twins building a gang to take over London from the underground up and the moves are very fluent.

    By far the best assassins creed game since Black flag. Conceptually there so many new additions and it's a great come back from assassins creed unity.

    This title in the Assassin's Creed franchise offers a lot of new features while improving on all the elements that made the franchise great and fun to play. Many of the game mechanics such as wall climbing, parkour running, and fight mechanics are greatly improved and fluid. The newly added perspective of having twin assassins is a welcome treat as you get to experience two assassins with different styles and attitude. So far this game has been refreshing to a long standing franchise.

    This game is a lot of fun. Like the Jack the Ripper series offshoot quest line. Not based on a lot of micro transaction.

    While I have played and own almost every game in the series, this one is up there as one of my favorites. If you aren't familiar with the Assassin's Creed series, you won't need to play the other games in the series, in order to enjoy this one. It is amazing how detailed the developers have gotten, especially taking advantage of the ps4's graphics engine. For gamers that have enjoyed the series, this one is a must have to keep the series complete.

    I have played all of the Assassins Creed to date and each one has it's strengths and weaknesses. This one is amazing. It's not just the sprawling environment but really the great interaction between the two main characters. The game plays like any other Assassins Creed, but it just seems more fluid. The city is very alive and even the music makes the game fun. If you are a fan, then this is a great one to get.

    I bought the game for my dad. He really likes the assassin's creed series. He says it's probably his favorite of the series. There is a lot to do. A good story. And the changes in this series make it a lot more fun than the earlier editions. It also requires more stealth and strategy making it a little more challenging. 5 stars if u like the series you'll likely enjoy this one as a top.

    A few problems but better than Unity

    Better protagonists and setting. It reminds you of the days of Assassin's Creed 2 and Brotherhood. The two twins Jacob and Evie Frye are both amazing characters and play off each other really well. The story is okay but you play Assassin's Creed for the gameplay. It is well done and I love the little touches like when you synchronize atop of a building it'll give you icons that you can mark and the ambient music is back. That was really missed in Unity. It still has a few bugs but not as bad as Unity had. I say it is worth a purchase even if Unity burned you out.

    All I have to say is that this game has returned to it's glory days. The series had started suffering from what is the stale and repetitive sickness that has ruined many games. As a fan of the series I'm glad they are back with a great new game that is fun and exciting again because of new changes and additions. A definite buy if you are a fan of quality games.
