ASSASSIN'S CREED - Mar 26, 2008 - 04:47am
Let my start by saying this was a game I really liked...a must play title. I could not put my controller down till I finished the game... What I did not like about it, in addition to the items in the review (I played the 360 version): *) Unskippable dialogs...the dialogs are *long* and you can not just skip over them...that makes for a game that is unbearable to replay...I could deal with the dialogs the first time, when replaying I do not want to spend that much time waiting for them. Replay value: D *) The ending. Not spoiling it for people, I just think I deserved a better ending than the one the game presents. *) Lame achievements. Collecting hundreds of flags spread throughout the cities ? Give me a break...they're not even as addictive as Crackdown orbs...those at least gave you a power up... But, like I said before, the game was definitely worth playing (once)...animations are *amazing* and the excitement of the assassin's chase is far out...I also liked the side story...and hey, this has to be the best game explaining why your "world" is constrained and does not allow you to go out the map... Definitely a late review though...;-)
