Breath-taking gameplay Terrible Framerates
Amazing story and just wandering around Rome is incredible
Horse in city is an excellent mechanic and a nice way to traverse the city quickly without dealing with too many trigger happy guards on the roofs
The excellent voice acting from 1 and 2 continue here
Characters are very well developed
Cons:
FPS routinely dropped to slideshow levels. As I have no way of measuring FPS on my PS3 I don't know what the exact number is. The issue is so horrible that if I hadn't purchased the CE and used the codes i would have returned the game and purchased for Xbox 360 instead. It gets especially terrible on horseback in the city even if the locale was not densely populated and no one was attacking me.
Overall:
The game is excellent and I would not hesitate to recommend the game to anyone but if given the chance I would buy it for the Xbox 360 or just wait for the PC version instead. I'm playing on a Korean slim PS3 but that has never been as gamebreaking an issue in any of my games including Assassin's Creed: 2
