This game had so much promise, and I suppose it still does if you consider the sequel that I am sure is coming. The graphics are fantastic, although there is some pop in. There is a ton of detail in the textures and lighting. There really isn't much music in the game, or background sound for that matter. I have to give the game credit for at least trying to be historically accurate. The story line is alright, nothing special, it would have been way better if they didn't spoil the main plot twist in the first two minutes of the game. Although honestly, I would have preferred that they did away with all that science fiction stuff. Climbing and jumping looks and feels great, as well as sifting through crowds or blending in with monks. The combat, while many claim it to be intricate and detailed, just feels like button mashing to me. Some of your missions are pretty boring, while others are rather exciting. The voice acting is great, well except for Altaïr. His actor is very stiff sounding, and has an American accent despite coming from the middle east. I will say that I got more into the game the more I played, but being completely honest, i didn't have much fun with it.
