    Best since Black Flag

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I know. There was only one game between this and Black Flag, but Unity was not great. It got extremely tedious and I had little motivation to actually finish the game besides my commitment to this franchise. I loved sailing in Black Flag, and although that doesn't return for this incarnation, I did enjoy driving horse-drawn carriages, the income missions, and the characters much more than in Unity. Despite their differences both Jacob and Evie Frye are charming and likable. I enjoyed using their different strengths depending on the needs of the mission, although, when given the choice, I had a preference for Evie's stealth tactics vs. Jacob's aggressiveness. Some missions force you to use one or the other, and they balanced well. I'm ready for next year's AC!

    Another great AC game!

    One of my favorite AC games was Black Flag. This game is great because they add some different aspects to the AC world like the gang underworld and taking control of different territories. Definitely better than Unity.

    After a failed Unity, Syndicate is a great entry into the series. The split protagonists are fun to change place wth and the story and setting at the turn of the centruy is a fun place to play.

    Compelling story with fun side missions. The characters have depth to them with memorable personalities. Gorgeous graphics with a stunning setting of London. A must buy for any gamer!

    Best AC game yet!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I've been a long time fan of the AC series, but this one here takes the #1 slot in my opinion. Gameplay is fantasic, the controls are easy to learn, and the mechanics are unbelievably fluid. The voice acting is top notch, the graphics are breathtaking, and the amount of activities to do is well worth the $60 price tag. I would highly recommend this game to any gamer, especially if you've ever played an AC game before.

    A much better Assassins' Creed Than The Last

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This game definitely gets back to its roots a bit, and is much less cumbersome than the Unity edition that preceded it. If you're a fan of the AC franchise but not so much the last game, this game sort of combines all the style of the last game with the substance of the previous ones. The trophies are not out of whack, the Jack the Ripper DLC is very good, and playing as both main characters is a nice twist. The revamped leveling system is very good and largely I felt like I could just get down to business playing AC. Not a perfect game (some of the side quests are tedious) but overall a good game.

    If you like the Assassins creed line of games, you will like this one too. Better graphics of course, since it's on the PS4, and new story line.

    Great addition to the series. Decent story and using two different main characters is a decent way to shake things up.

    Better than Unity

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Far more polished and enjoyable than last year's buggy mess, Unity. Also, now that the setting is Industrial era England, the British accents actually make sense! In all seriousness, though, it's a great game a worth your time and attention. Just avoid spending $60 on it because, let's be real, it's an Assassin's Creed game and it'll be half that price in a few months.

    Overall it's a pretty fun game

    This is another in the Assassin's Creed line of games. It's rated M (Mature) and made for older audiences. Overall it's a pretty fun game, but definitely not something that held my interest all that long. I'm not a huge fan of 1 player games that don't have online play, but I thought I'd give this one a chance. The graphics are great, the game itself is well-made and people who love the Assassin's Creed line or love one person games will find a great one here.

    Got this game for Christmas and it is a sweet game! I had never played the Assassins Creed games until I got this. It takes place in London during the Industrial Revolution and if you enjoy history you will like this game and London during this time period. The graphics are amazing and the gameplay is even better. The combat is brutal and swift! Take back London! Get this game you will like it!

    Awesome

    This is my favorite assassins since Revelations. The characters are engaging and have a comedic tone similar to Ezio. Highjacking horse and Buggys is a blast and the new zipline to scale buildings is a welcome addition and doesnt at all feel out of place. Not done with the story yet but can already say ill be playing this one long after to finish all the side missions and find all the hidden items.

    Syndicate is a great game

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is the best game in the Assassin's Creed series. If you're a fan you've probably already bought this but if you're one of those skeptical gamers this is a great game to jump back into the series with. Modern day plot is sorely lacking but the combat gameplay is very fun throughout.

    Just finished the main storyline and conquered London. Although countless glitches (worse than ACU), in Syndicate you get a solid storyline and a chance to meet many great people in history. All the side quests with certain people are well-written and well designed. I had so much fun playing this game!!! This is my favorite AC game!

    Back to the roots of Assassin's Creed!

    No broken game here compared to it's predecessor Unity when it was released. This game brings you back to the good old days of when the AC franchise was at its best with Ezio. If you like Assassin's Creed then this is a good addition to your collection.

    Assassin's Creed games have varied from being fantastic to almost dreadful with last year's Unity having some of the worst issues of all. But this year, Syndicate brings back the joy of the battle between Assassins and Templars. Buy this game and get to stabbing! You won't regret it!

    Assassin's creed Sydicate is the best AC game on ps4. It has the best characters since AC 2 & you get to play as a female assassin. Graphics are great for open world game. The side activities are top notch for this genre. You will get your money's worth.

    The game is a lot of fun and it shipped super fast. I ordered the game during black Friday. The shipping was free and it arrived in two business day. I was pleasantly surprised that I received the limited edition of the game, that contains the pre order DLC.
