    An Improvement

    Syndicate is an improvement in the Assassin's Creed series from Rogue and Unity. By no means is this the best Assassin's Creed game, but it looks great and has the same handling and feel of others in the series. That can kind of be a problem in itself though as gameplay feels stagnant and repetitious at times. When compared to Assassin's Creed 2 which was outstanding for its time and introduced new concepts to the series, my favorite tends to lean more towards Black Flag. In Black Flag, you juggled between sailing the open seas and typical Assassin's Creed gameplay. The series felt fresh. Syndicate is a return to the old style, but is not as stale as Rogue and Unity were soon after they came out. If you like the series like I do, pick it up.

    Great game, fixes a lot that was wrong with Unity. It's good that this game ditched the online elements and it feels like it went back to the basics. The only negative so far is that there are still too many collectibles and I always have the desire to get them all.

    A much better game than Unity, which is apparent in the first 20 minutes of gameplay. This games acts as a true return to the formula that made Assassin's Creed 2 and brotherhood such great games. Needless to say, if you enjoyed those two, this is a must have.

    This game provides hours of fun, even my 2 year old likes to watch when we play. I take turns playing this game with my husband, he does the main story / quests and I do the side items such as collecting pressed flowers, bottles, find chests and Helix pieces.

    I'm a big fan of this series have played most of them at this point. Its another solid game of the kind that made Assassin's Creed great from the start. If you like the others you'll like this one. I'll keep getting them as long as they keep making them.

    If you are a fan of the series this is a strong entry in the series. If new to the series nice starting point. Solid design and progression systems, nice to have two different characters to play with each with their own skill sets. Overall solid open world fun.

    Very solid game overall. It is easily the best looking AC game ever, despite not being "next gen" in my opinion. The combat is the best one yet for sure, and the customization is surprisingly done well. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys the AC series.

    Unity could not keep my interest and lets not forget the bugs it had from launch. This games Artwork feels like a return to the Assassins creed I know and love and the game play is updated enough that it feels fresh again but there is only so much you can do.

    Assassins Creed Syndicate is one of the best AC games in recent times. It has no major flaws compared to last year's unity. The combat and stealth feel great and the main campaign is great with main protagonists Jacob and Evie Frye making things better.

    Syndicate was a much needed return to form for Assassin's Creed. Evie and Jacob are interesting characters. They improved the combat and made it more Batman-like which is a good thing. Overall, I was very happy and I feel this is a better game than Unity.

    After having skipped out on last years assassin's creed game I am very pleased with this one. There are so many small little touches that make the city feel alive and functioning it is very easy to get lost in the impressiveness of this game.

    This game takes what the other assassins creed games did well, and then adds a little bit to it. I find the game refreshingly familiar, yet different enough to keep me interested. Will I finish it? Probably not. But I never finish these long games.

    I've played all the Assassins Creed games, it's the best they have released since ACII, great long story. It took probably 30 hours for the story to be complete. No glitches that I experienced which is rare in AC. Definitely worth buying.

    This Assassin's Creed offering is MILES better than Unity was from last year. Still not to the level of Black Flag, but I wonder if they'll ever get back there. I enjoy the game a lot though, and there is considerable replay value for your buck.

    We have traditionally liked the AC series with a few exceptions, like captaining pirate boats. This game was great, had all the traditional aspects of an AC game, continued story line, and the carriages were easier to drive than the boats.

    This game has great game play. It's high definition graphics are stunning and has a lot of freedom when it comes to completing sequences. The issue I have is the story progresses very slowly with each addition to the Assassin's Creed franchise.

    I have played every AC game (save for Rogue) and they have been getting a little stale. This game is super fun and the characters are refreshingly spry. If you have loved AC but were getting bored, this game will bring the fun back baby!

    A great comeback from the assassins creed series from the last Unity game. Great characters and beautiful London environment. The rope launcher, character switching and new style combat are definitely what make this game fun and entertaining.
