      I only gave this a 4/5 because it is not a quite a 5.. maybe 4 1/2. There is a lot of stuff to do and it is a free-world enviornment. You can pretty much go anywhere and climb anything. Unfortunately, you cant go in any doors (like Oblivion). The main missions of the game have you assassinating 9 key members of society. You must pickpocket, beat, or evesdrop your information from people. Once you have enough information about your target, you can continue with your assassination attempt. Besides the main missions, there are over 400 flags to find and 60 mini-assassination missions troughout the huge map. There are people everywhere and they can help or hinder you. Some push you for no reason and can pick fights. Others are just there to get in your way. Everything you do must be "socially acceptable", or the guards will be on alert about you.

      This game does have some random freeze issues on the PS3. It has been aknowledged by Ubisoft and they plan on fixing this problem. This game is alot of fun and can take upto 40 hours of gameplay to complete all missions in the game. The graphics are very good and are fun to watch. This game also has no online mode, so you'll be flying solo this whole game.

      Gameplay: 8.0
      Altair’s stylish combat moves and graceful acrobatic steps make him a most formidable assassin but the missions can get a bit repetitive. The story would have been epic but it’s a bit confusing and the ending will have you scratching your head. The timeframe is well represented in the game and there’s a lot of ground to cover.

      Graphics: 8.5
      At times the game will make gamers drool at the carefully detailed environments and character models. Then again, the Shenmue-styled pop-in, framerate stutters and a few other graphical glitches just doesn’t fail to give the impression that the graphics could have looked better.

      Sound: 9.0
      You will be surrounded by sound whether it’s the various vendors, desperate beggars and outspoken scholars. There’s also a great voice-acting cast and a gorgeous soundtrack that is just so wonderfully cinematic.

      Difficulty: Medium
      Altair can swing a sword or dagger with the best of them so combat can be a nice challenge. Your enemies run pretty fast but thankfully Altair is acrobatic enough to jump from rooftop to rooftop to find a place to hide.

      Concept: 8.0
      There’s a wide open world for you to explore and the time period definitely adds a new element to the stealthy assassinations. The number of extras, secrets and side missions should offer gamers plenty to do but aside from this there’s very little to come back to when you finish the game.

      Overall: 8.0
      Confusing plotline and ending aside, Assassin’s Creed is still an original and profound experience that shouldn’t be missed by any gamer looking for something different. It might not be an achievement in game design either but there is way too much to love about this stealth game.

      This game looks like the most amazing game on any platform! The sheer freedom to go and do anything you want is really going to change the way we look at games. I can't wait til this game hits the shelves. I saw the trailer for this game and it was amazing. The story in the game sounds great, the graphics are outstanding and its said that this is going be the first in a series of games. For me this is a must buy. I'll be in on release day for this one...

        BEWARE: Underlying Theme

      I bought my PS3 explicitly for Assassin's Creed, and at first I thought it was the coolest game that ever existed; but once that plot unraveled, I began to think differently. What really angers me about this game is that it makes degrading and false accusations about Christianity. It calls Jesus Christ a "mere carpenter" and says that he used the Piece of Eden--which is an artifact in the game--to perform his miracles and not that power of God. It also refers to Jesus turning water in to wine and Moses parting the Red Sea and says that they were simply illusions and did not really happen. This angers me because it takes a cheap shot at Christianity. Also, the first sign you see on the floor at the end of the game
      is a pentagram.

      Get one for FREE!!! Have a look at this video first:

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFKYVE__Mug

      Just take 2 minutes and read this. This is very EASY to do! It literally takes 10 minutes to setup. Simply follow the steps below. I promise you, this is 100% real. I wouldn't jeopardize my eBay account status if this was a scam. My feedback is real and I will answer you on any question! Here is what you do. Click on the link below, register, pick an account type (referral is the easiest) and complete just 1 offer (Very important that you complete the 1 offer otherwise your account will sit in limbo until you do).This is not like other sites where you need to complete one offer on 2 or 3 different pages!!! And a lot of these offers are FREE trials with nothing else to buy...No commitments!!!

      There are plenty of cool offers to choose from such as Blockbuster online, Stamp.com, Netflix, Gamefly which are services you would regularly sign up for anyways and their all secure networks, why not use them to get a free PS3 System or cash (I did the Dermacia.com for a 30 day free trial and it only cost me shipping & handling and i got credit for it the same day). Look at the offers and choose the one that works for you. After signing up and completing your one offer, simply refer 8-13 people (depending on the FREE prize you choose) to do the same under your link (just post the same thing as I have on eBay, and you'll get your referrals before the auction even ends.)

      Then they will ship your PS3 System or your selected item for free, I chose the PS3 80gb System. No Joke, 100% REAL!!! The reason these companies make money, is because most people don't bother getting all the referrals. All you have to do is post it on EBAY! They use us as advertisement by word of mouth which saves them tons of money which goes toward yours and my free gift. These are legit companies such as Blockbuster, Netflix, Gamefly etc... You can copy my listing if you want. You must use your own authentic link though. You will get your own personal link after your orders placed.



      Step 1: Click this link: http://www.YourPS34free.com/index.php?ref=4228411

      Step 2: Sign up and chose an account type (Referral is the easiest and best).

      Step 3: Complete just 1 offer (like Blockbuster or Stamps.com) and refer up to 13 people to do the same (use eBay! Do what I did, copy my ad).

      Step 4: Receive your PS3 System for FREE!!!!!!!!!! (Even The Shipping Is Free!!!)


      For proof that this is for real, click on the link below. It's the company that is behind everything.

      Please take advantage of this offer!!!
