    The Return

    Since Assassin's Creed has been coming out every year, the series has started to suffer. After the glitch fest with Unity, everyone wondered if Assassin's Creed would ever recover. Well with Syndicate not only does it bring life back into the series but something that was missing: The fun factor. Exploring London has got to be the most fun I've had since exploring Italy in Assassin's Creed 2. The rope launcher is definitely a game changer when it comes to traversing the city. The combat system is so much nimble and brutal but its fun to string combos and kills together. The story of both assassins: Jacob and Evie is very interesting. Jacob is the straight forward wants confrontation and results one while Evie is the stealthy follows the creed assassin. Overall, this game is solid and if you've had doubt about picking it up because of Unity don't worry. It runs smoothly, the characters are awesome, gameplay is endlessly enjoyable and it is worth picking it up

    A Step Up from Unity

    AC:Unity had it's fair share of problems but I enjoyed it. I was skeptical about AC:Syndicate but I pre-ordered the game and the season pass in the hope that Ubisoft would improve on the game play and iron out the bugs in it's predecessor. As it turns out, they did. The game mechanics are lot better and the Rope Launcher makes a new fun way of getting around town. The story is fitting of 19th Century London. Admittedly there are a few bugs but nothing game breaking. If you're a fan of Assassin's Creed you're to sure to like Syndicate.

    I have really enjoyed the latest installment of the Assassins Creed line of games. Game play is just as fun as your used to seeing, and the visuals when synchronizing are amazing in HD. Free running is a little different than what I am used too, with a "Free run up" and a "Free run down" button to push while running. It seems to be there to help prevent leaping to your death accidentally... a nice feature, just different to what I'm used to with the controller.

    This game brings back the atmosphere and fun that the first 2 Assassin's Creed games brought. London is huge with literally hundreds of activities and missions to do from the beginning. The learning curve is quick and the controls are easy to understand. The story is easier to follow. Most of the complaints from the Unity game have been addressed. Only a few bugs, glitches are noticed which should be taken out with future updates.

    I've played every Assassin's Creed game to date, minus chronicles, and have to say that this is by far the best one of them all!! Love the setting of Syndicate in the UK. Also love that they made a way so that you don't have to waste a TON of time climbing buildings anymore once you get the grappling hook!! Kudos to Ubisoft on making another excellent AC game. I don't know how they are going to top this one next year...

    The story for this chapter of the Assassin's Creed games is not a let down. It incorporates some gang, chemical, and class warfare. Great game, and very fun. Even though it is closer to the 10th installment than it is to the 1st, they have managed to maintain a fresh feel and new experiences. Tons of game play.

    I have played from the start, the franchise has evolved this year I love the modern feel with all new aspects. The ability to recruit and build up your gang. To fighting in arenas for xp. This has a lot of feel like Black Flag but in the 20th Century feel. It will not disappoint if your a fan of the Series.

    This is great title. Right out of the box the game is smooth and feels polished, no broken title needing many patches to make it playable. Even better the characters are likable and the story is much more like those back in AC 2. Very happy with this.

    The series got away from interesting after Assassins Creed III. The ability to play as 2 characters, the landscape and the graphics made this game so fun. The entertainment of this game was endless. The side missions were perfect and the NPC's added so much dimension. I loved it.

    This game is just as fun as Black Flag. Story line is good, and the game engine is nice. I like there are 2 main characters to the story and it cools the game takes place in London. Can't wait to finish it to move on the the DLC content.

    This is another installment in the Assassin's Creed series and takes place in the industrial age of London. The city is beautiful and the main story missions are interesting and do not demand tremendous dexterity or high level gamer skills so that you can enjoy the game and not worry about manic button pushes. The side missions can be repetitive but are a good way to practice game mechanics. I am only about a quarter of the way through, but already I have met Alexander Bell, Charles Darwin, and a host of Templar baddies. The interplay between the lead twin assassins is fun and the ability to play either one is cool. This game has already given me 20+ hours of fun. Well worth the price of admission. If you like Assassin's Creed or the stealth genre, its a no brainer.
