A lot of reviewers don't seem too happy with the game - I must admit when I first started it I had my doubts. There was no real intro, just thrown straight in. Straight into a new city / landscape and a bunch of unfamiliar characters.
The game soon comes into its own though, as usual relying on the continuing storyline and the ease of controlling the playable characters. For me there is much more you can do when controlling AC than in games such as Uncharted. Moving across rooftops is so easy and fluid in this series of games!
It would be easy to dwell on some of the bad points of this game, such as the added den seiges, new (and not quite so strong) characters and Constantinople itself (which has almost too much to live up to.....how can it compare with no colleseum?).
however, for me the good points far outweigh these factors.
The latest games have always had good story and this does not dissapoint. The tie in of altair, Ezio and Desmond is handled very well indeed, with the former twos storyline coming to a conclusion and the hint that desmond will play a major part in AC3.
The games other big bonus is the amount of side quests, collectibles etc that can be completed after the main story....I have sunk considerable time into this, none of which felt like a chore. sometimes while waiting for money to be deposited in the bank, I spent many an amusing time playing with constucting and using the new bomb feature.
I have the Animus edition, so the Vlad the Impaler prison mission was included...not sure if this will be made available as DLC in future. It is very short to be honest only about 6-7 minutes long, with no enemey interaction.
The only problem is now the wait for AC3....
I have had the game since friday so I have managed to clock more than 25 hours of gameplay and let me tell you - it is addictive as ever! All the features from previous games are here but every single thing is better. You can climb faster , kill quicker and charm the ladies more efficiently (just joking).
The gameplay is a killer for me - you can do whatever you please - what a great sandbox playground! Assassins missions , renovating beautiful Constantinopole , crafting bombs - you name it - its there!
Graphics - a little bit better in my opinion than AC Brotherhood, but nothing to write home about. Graphics was , is and will be one of the strongest points of this game. Fullstop.
Sound...this is something you should write home about...! Simply stunning! I love Ezio's accent and Im playing on my Denon 5.1 Dolby Digital sound system and let me tell you - treat yourself to one if you havent done so yet - this game deserves a good sound system! At night Im playing with my headphones on (dont want to kill the neighbours just yet) and it is sensational...you can hear every whisper on the street!
This game for me is what gaming is all about - killer graphics , great gameplay , fantastic sound and a story to die for! I also love the black case - something new and very good looking.
Ubisoft - well done , great job! If you are not sure about this game...well...Treat yourself because you will not be disappointed. Its worth every penny - I promise. Hats off to the producers.
Thanks
Michael
Turns out I was worried for no reason at all.
Ezio's movements from strolling to fast paced climbing are smooth and effortless, the city scape is mind bogglingly beautiful and seemingly infinite, and even the sound has been improved to include the sound of bats at night, cats in the street and conversations within buildings.
The control system has been changed ever so slightly with triangle (PS3 version) now being used for secondary weapons and not the 'head' movements as players would have seen in the previous games.
Everything seems so much bigger. The scale of the city is huge, the soundtrack is huge, the available gameplay (in game and online multiplayer) is huge, the weapon range is huge.
A truly outstanding game. And always slightly satisfying to see it rated better than the new CoD!
