Finished it long ago.
I give it 8.1 out of 10.Games main problem is its montony and repetitiveness,overall very little replay value,cause you pretty much ARE replaying a same thing over and over again through the walktrough.
The graphics are great,its hard to say different when looking at beutiful Acre,Damascus and Jeurusalim.
Best part of the gameplay is in its parkour(hope I spelt that right),its possibly the best seen in games,even beating the one of its own predecessor-Prince of Persia.
Suprisingly enough I enjoyed game's storyline the most!The final part of trhe game was damn great and had awesome atmosphere with all the plot going on...to bad they cut off on the most interesting part...
If Assasins Creed 2 is as good altogether as the final sequence,in story and atmosphere,then it is as good as bought by me.But meanwhile,I want PoP4 from Ubisoft Montreal then AC2.

No your wrong.

They freaking PUNISH you if you even dare replay the game.

If you wanted to go back and replay a mission, you'd have to go through all over again and can't save.

What's even worse is that you can't even skip the cutscenes and those can be quite long. They are nice but once is more than enough.

I really liked this game - though it's probably because I had a ton of fun role-playing this a bit; you know, stalking up behind people, lining them up for the perfect kill.. escaping into the shadows unseen. I thought it was really neat, but I agree that it was repetitive - still loads of fun though.

Just finished this on the PC .
Other than the graphics , everything else is pretty lacklustre .

1) Essentially all you do is (InvestigateX3 times -> kill Target) x 9 .

2) The Story wasn't too bad but the ending was .... um pathetic . Even if it is part of a trilogy they could have ended it better . When i was done i was like WTF?

3) The cities look about alike and so do all the citizens . The only thing that differs in each city is the type of guards .

Its fun hopping from around buildings though

The Game looked gorgeous and had a neat story but the repetitive nature of the missions made it a real pain to finish. I almost didn't.

And the ending?!??!?!?!? What was that!? I hate it when developers just end a game with a cliff hanger to leave room for a sequel. i felt totally gypped!

Oh, should have read your post before I posted.

Ditto!

This game was cool for like an hour, and then it just got boring.

I'm just gonna jump on the bandwagon and say it was repetitive as hell, because it really was.

You have to admit that there was a bit of satisfaction when it came to knifing those annoying beggar women and then jumping in a stack of hay

I agree. =p Actually one really good thing about the game was killing people, because it was so amazingly satisfying; each death was like a transient moment of bliss.

I guess "stylish" would be a good word to use here too.

Mmmm... stylish death. *gurgle*

Ya know, this game really reminded me of Spider-Man 2.

It was just as repetitive but webslinging was always a lot of fun.
I hope the sequel to this won't be as big a disaster as Spider-man 3 was...

I know I'm late buit only started to play the game and in all honesty I have no idea how it managed to turn into such huge franchise... It is so damn repetitive!

I was amazaed by it at first but after one day it just got boring. It is same thing over and over again. Even having new abilities doesn't make it better since in most cases you don't even get time to use them since you get attacked from every angle.

Cool at first but boring later.
I don't know how it ends but story so far is nothing special either... I'll finish it but there barely any chances of me replaying the game again.

Are the following releases any better or is it the same thing all over again?
