My personal opinion: Didn't like it

Unless I was doing something wrong, there's only like three ways to assassinate somebody, and the whole fighting thing is extremely repetitive.

The only cool thing to me was the acrobatics.

But, then again, its juts my opinion.

I seriously *want* to like it, but I don't.  Graphics are great, environments are huge, but I have to agree, combat is repetitive, and spending a lot of time going from place to place just isn't my idea of fun.  The wife, on the other hand, is actually showing some interest in the 360, so that may be a plus.  As for me, I guess I'll try to beat COD4 again on a higher difficulty.

I bought a 360 elite and Assassins Creed last week.. This game is awesome on a 42" Phillips 1080p.

I find myself feeling the same way.  In fact, I set it down and picked up Forza again because I got so tired of the same thing over and over again.

you guys abviously didn't go far enough. so far i have found about 12 different ways to attack and defend and several different assination methods.

also as you progress you no longer have to do the long rides between cities.

I played it and beat it. Control was good, animations were good, graphics were good, presentation was good....

but they must have hired a moron to design the gameplay cause it SUCKED.

It was repetitive as hell (you do the EXACT same thing for every assassination - go to the view points, interrogate somebody, pickpocket somebody, save some citizens and then proceed with the hit) and by the time I got to the end I was just glad it was over.

Plus, the whole sci-fi 'DNA memory' shit ruined the experience. It sucked when you'd hit somebody and they would glow with matrix rain.

I found Uncharted to be a much more enjoyable 3rd-person game than Assassin's Creed.
