Hi guys i'm new, this is my first review ever so I hope you enjoy reading it.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assassin's creed
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Graphics

The graphics are good, as shown by the opening cinematic, the in-game graphics are just as good, the colours are vibrant, the buildings are detailed as much as possible and the view from the view-points is absolutly amazing! On the city streets hovever it is toned down somewhat as the colours of clothes is drab and you do see the occasionale clone while walking.

Story

The story follows Altair, a master assassin who's cocky-ness and arrogance makes him fail
a job, which makes one brother lose his arm and the other, his life. After Altair escapes
he gets demoted to novice and must kill nine mento get back to the top. In the game there is
also a big twist that I won't ruin although the score will be judged with this in mind

the plot delves into the life of a main character I can't mention but seems to block Altair out.Sure, we know he's an assassin but that's all the game tells us about him, he would be a lot easier to sympathise with if we known more about him

Audio

The music is superb, Turning heroic and fast during chases and quieting during other scenes.
The voice acting is good but Altair's heavy american accent seems out of place due to the fact that it is set in the crusades

Gameplay

Gameplay gets repetetive mainly because before each hit you are required to gather information about your target first, you do this by completing side quests. There are only four informer,interegation,pick pocket and eavsedrop side quests to do.

On the other hand jumping from building to building, skipping from beam to beam and climbing
up buildings is effortless yet joyful to watch.

Combat is easy and a walk in the park after you learn how to counter attacks meaning it also gets boring towards the end of the game as thousands of enemies get thrown at you.
