For some reason, I can't get excited about this game.

Maybe it's just the amount of great games out there that are more appealing, I don't know. Those videos posted a couple pages back also have me worried, if assassinating others is all you have to do, then it can get boring story wise, like Crackdown. There has to be more than just killing, and well, the assassinations are quite repetitive. But that's all I will say before you all get upset.

Game looks good though, I'm not saying it's bad or anything, but just one of the faults I see.

No why would we get upset, that's how you feel and fair enough :D but I can guarantee the story is definately something EPIC. just listen to the music man :)

I see what your saying Lebato, but i think the game offers lots of freedom in HOW you choose to do the assassinations, and there's also the escape you have to consider too. Every game has its core gameplay mechanic, but there's more to the gameplay experience than just that.

Well you would think that it would get boring but it actually doesn't and the story is actually quite well thought out.

Basically You have been abducted by a medical research facilitiy, where they explain that they are looking for something from the past (i'm guessing a treasure of some kind) but they need you to relive the memories of your ancestor, this is basically what the story is based around, obviously some of the memories are being blocked by your subconcious so you have to go through the memories as if they were levels.
The memories are pretty much objectives and missions, its not just assassination its pick pocketing, saving innocent peoples lives from the templers and gathering information or just wondering around seeing what trouble you can get up to :P


It's actually very well thought out, I'm sure most of you know I dislike western games so it must be good.. :D

I was expecting it to be pretty crap (at least not my style of game) to be honest and I've been hugely surprised.

^^ To echo the above. The free-roaming aspects are quite well done. If you're playing the game properly, you'll spend a lot of time doing recon, scouting the area, climbing buildings* and setting up the kill along with generally taking in the cities which are HUGE. Even getting into random sword fights is quite entertaining.

I'm not sure it's explorable as Crackdown in either the vertical sense or as in every block being unique but generally just running around and climbing can be fun in itself.

I only got to play through to the first big city you get to but the story certainly seemed to start off pretty well. I'm toying with getting it anyway and seeing how much of it I can get done before Mass Effect :S If I can clear one or two games from my backlog by Friday it's in!

PS: Jolli, it's not illegal to sell games early, there's no laws against it. Retailers generally have an agreement with the publishers, via their distribution partners, to maintain street dates. Recently when an indie breaks it or there's a mistake at one of the non-specialist retailers most people have stayed true to them and not followed suit, usually to much self congratulatory back slapping in the industry press. Does my head in!

yeah these reviews are too long, too in depth. Although they try not to spoil it for you, they do show too much.

But this game, although they do refer some negative points, looks stunning and somewhat refreshing and original in the midst of all this shooters we've been getting.

Seems that the reviewer from 1UP wanted to get rid of some anger / wrote it away from himself into the review......but a 7.0 is a bit to harsh in my opinion.

I called GAME today for my AC pre-order and they said that its on Thursday, no early release...ah well, COD4 is bad ass anyway so I will play that alot.

I also asked them the Collectors Edition with the Altair statue they said it costs 899 SEK, that is fucking ALOT for a game and couple of inches of a statue, so I took the regular one as pre-order.

Anyway, I just can't wait to play the game this week.

Some shops over here in the Netherlands are already breaking the streetdate....every time a big title comes the same thing happens...:/

I wish MS would let go of the streetdate and wouldn't let the Gameshop sign any stupid contracts concerning fines etc.
I know f.i. that my Gameshop already have the game on stock...but cannot sell the game due to this streetdate/contract thingy....:(

^^ its all to do with the "day 1" sales dude, that is why the contract is there

Also if one shop gets it before the others, then its not fair cause that 1 shop in your town will get ALL the business, and the other will get shit

Fair trading.
