I just finished Assassin’s Creed last night. Not sure what all the bitching was about. This game featured great graphics, great voice acting, and a much better than average story.

Yes, the random things people in the crowd did get repetitive–you would think that for the 36 villagers I saved, they would have more than 4 standard responses–”my sons will hear of your bravery!” And, the tasks you perform can get repetitive as well. Save a villager, pick a pocket, hide in some hay, eavesdrop, beat the crap out of someone.

Still, the utter joy of leaping from rooftop to rooftop, scrambling up walls and sneaking up on rooftop guards (and gutting them) never got old. Nor did the free fall jumps from the towers into the ominipotent piles of hay. I, for one, will be looking forward to the sequel.
