After seeing the X06 Xbox 360 gameplay video I must say, I have never seen a game that looks this good.... This literally makes Oblivion look ugly (but then again, I have an SDTV). Honestly, this game looks like PoP on drugs, with ridiculous graphics. Ridiculous.

 

I don't know much about the story, except its set in 1100's and about some Jewish dude Altair who's part of some pseudo-organisation dedicated to killing the leaders of the crusaders. Apparently due to many hints given in X06, there's a masssive conspiracy with regards to the games story about some Genetic Memories implanted into modern day people, reliving them in some kind of lab for training purposes. (Many indications, [ messages in game, pics of faded genetic structures in the packground] )

 

What do you make of this game? Im F****** excited as hell!

 

Can't wait for Assassin's Creed!

I'm tracking it and I have it on my wish list, but frankly it is too far out (August at the earliest) for me to be that excited about at this point.

It was actually Xbox 360 exclusive first under the name Project Assassin, then it when null for a while and re-emerged as Assassins Creed and only announced on PS3, then announced on Xbox 360.  So overall it was never not on the Xbox 360.

Anyway I dont think this game is coming out till 2008 sadly.

Between the top-notch building leaping and the badass wristblade I am really eager to play this game. As mentioned before, I really hope there's a good amount of hours that can be put down in this game.

I'm looking forward to it becuase, its that kind of game that you haven't played before... I mean honestly, have you ever played a good graphics game that lets you be the role of an assasin( besides splinter cell!) If you have, OK? Otherwise, I cannot just wait!

Yeah, but other than the insane graphics, mechanics and gameplay there's the story. It seems incomprehensible to me that the whole thing could be a genetic memory.... Ill be very angry if that's the case.

Btw, I think the other dude meant its a stealth game and not a "steal" game.

The interaction between the character and surroundings are a lot more indepth and free form, so overall it plays better than PoP it seems.

Apparently due to many hints given in X06, there's a masssive conspiracy with regards to the games story about some Genetic Memories implanted into modern day people, reliving them in some kind of lab for training purposes. (Many indications, [ messages in game, pics of faded genetic structures in the packground] )

this game looks sick in it's stage right now.  it'll be nuts when it does comes out.  stealth kills, jumping from rooftops, slashing a fool's throat in a crowd of onlookers. the only choice i have to make now is which system to go with, ps3 or 360.  i wonder if they will be released at the same time for both consoles?  hmmm.....

I'm not excited about what I saw. Sure, the crowd and stuff looks cool. But you don't go and buy a game for something that looks cool. You buy a game for something that is cool.

And like someone said before me, if it's anything like Prince of Persia I'll pass on this title. If we see the gameplay turning out to something amazing I will look into it. But I doubt it won't follow the steps of PoP after watching the footage.

And stealth games in general aren't my cup of tea. I like the option of stealth, but all stealth games to date are turning into horrible and I mean horrible gameplay once you are discovered and actually need to fight you're way through.

This game could be different. But until I actually see it's different, I'm not excited.

I was about to say, why is he Jewish? Guess that clears things up.

The story is deeper than you think too, if a bit controversial. You play as Altair, an Assassin from the Shiite Muslim sect of the nefarious Hashshashin, a Muslim Extremist Assassins Guild based around the 8th - 12th centuries. Their original leader was Hasan-i-Sabbah. This guy would take Muslims from their youth, drug them heavily and place them in man made paradise in the mountains. He would brainwash them, and tell them that they were in heaven, and this is where they would come if they died after they served him.

As an agent of the Hashshashin, Altairs job is to murder corrupt Christian Crusaders (CONTROVERSY!). There is a massive conspiracy theory that says that Altair is a time travelling hitman, attempting to alter history by eliminating major Christian leaders to crush the religion. The time-travel theory spawns off the fact that throughout the X06 game conference videos genetic structures and weird phrases constantly flash off the screen.

I believe the story other than the mystery of what happens after you die with the odd screen, is to stop the crusades. Not simply to kill christians, but to stop the war.

Chill! Remember, it is a game. I'm Christian, and I'm still gonna play it. Games are experiences that aren't real. It really isn't that offensive honestly. Now, if you were throwing babies into a juicer, then I might consider it offensive.

Actually the story behind the Hashashin(sp?) is that they killed both corrupted Christians and corrupted Muslims(being a muslim this will be tough to do..but if they are corrupt..). Also about the time traveling theory..there is actaully another theory that Altair is a descendnant of an assassin and with him being hooked up to future technology they go thorugh his genes and experience what his ancestor did and this is why you see all the wierd things going on. Ok so the game IS NOT about "crushing Chrsitanity" but about stoping those who dont want peace OR who DO want peace, i forgot which one. Again you will be killing people from all types of faith and not just Christianity..
