This game really does deserve a thread.
I got it on friday and i've hardly stopped playing it at all since. Tis incredible and addictive as hell.
The free running, free movement and free mission play is brilliant. The whole structure of the game is amazing. You are constrained a tiny bit by story now and again, but there are so many storylines that seem to be running under and over eachother it's really good.
Some of the time i seem to just have fun leaping and running between buildings and suchlike, jumping down, stabbing a guard in the back then climbing back up a building, or running through crowds of people and leaping into a hay bale or cart or sliding in between some scholars or suchlike and blending in to confuse them is really fun
the AI are all brilliant, every single person on the street seems to have their own mind, and own views on what is going on.
and the "leap of faith" part is brilliant too
tis a great game, and the combat gets better and better as it goes on.
Anyone else have it? If you have a 360 i recommend it.
I won't spoiler or anything here, just say it has more than just the story of you being an assassin, and more than just going around killing people. The gameplay holds up so well on its own, sometimes you forget the story is even there, and then when it comes back, you're surprised and then get involved in that.
I really like it. I'd certainly say buy it.
