Assassin's Creed redefines the action genre. Assassin's Creed merges technology, game design, theme, and emotions into a world where you instigate chaos and become a vulnerable, yet powerful, agent of change. The setting is 1191 A.D. The Third Crusade is tearing the Holy Land apart. You, Altair, intend to stop the hostilities by suppressing both sides of the conflict. You are an Assassin, a warrior shrouded in secrecy and feared for your ruthlessness. Your actions can throw your immediate environment into chaos, and your existence will shape events during this pivotal moment in history. Next-gen gameplay - The proprietary engine developed from the ground up for Xbox 360 allows organic game design featuring open gameplay, intuitive control scheme, realistic interaction with environment, and a fluid, yet sharp, combat mechanic

bit-tech Review

"The thing we really like about Assassin’s Creed is how good it is for creating player stories. The open sandbox style means that players can make their own tales in a way that makes the game great to talk about.

There was the time I killed the Mad Doctor of Acre by climbing some scaffolding, assassinating an archer, and climbing down in to the courtyard of the hospital. I leapt from a nearby chandelier and plunged a knife into his throat, escaping through alleyways with the aid of some vigilantes and scholars. It’s wonderful and deliciously emergent, going a way a long to address complaints of repetitiveness.

In a nutshell, the verdict lies in a balance of these two opposing viewpoints. Is Assassin’s Creed good? Undoubtedly – but the Director’s Cut isn’t a massive improvement over the original. You may well love the new version more than the original, like we do, but the route of that preference won’t be because the game is markedly better on PC. It’ll be because your PC is markedly better than a console." - 5th May 2008
