Assassin's Creed is the next-gen game developed by Ubisoft Montreal that will redefine the action genre. While other games claim to be next-gen with impressive graphics and physics, 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 AD. 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. Key Features - Be an Assassin: Master the skills, tactics, and weapons of history's deadliest and most secretive clan of warriors. Plan your attacks, strike without mercy, and fight your way to escape.
- Realistic and responsive environments: Crowds react to your moves and will either help or hinder you on your quests.
- Action with a new dimension - total freedom: Eliminate your targets wherever, whenever, and however. Stalk your prey through richly detailed, historically accurate, open-ended environments. Scale buildings, mount horses, blend in with crowds. Do whatever it takes to achieve your objectives.
- Relive the epic times of the Crusades: Assassin's Creed immerses you in the realistic and historical Holy Land of the 12th century, featuring life-like graphics, ambience, and the subtle, yet detailed nuances of a living world.
- Intense action rooted in reality: Experience heavy action blended with fluid and precise animations. Use a wide range of medieval weapons, and face your enemies in realistic swordfight duels.
- Next-gen gameplay: The proprietary engine developed from the ground up for the next-gen console allows organic game design featuring open gameplay, intuitive control scheme, realistic interaction with environment, and a fluid, yet sharp, combat mechanic.

 Excelent Action Game!! September 1, 2008
Luis Campos Gonzalez (Mexico)
This is a must have game for PS3. The most realistic stunning graphics ever seen on a game. Great moves and control in game. Great story.

As far as history goes, the game developers have done their research accurately. The game is fun over all, but killing templars over and over and over gets pretty boring because you have to go to different cities, and that takes a very long time.
I would recommend it for any action adventure lover. If you are into shooting games like gears of war, or uncharted, PLEASE DONT BUY THIS GAME, you will be very bored.

Very good game. As I bought it together with GTA, GRID, MGS4 and other 3 excelent game, I am not playing much Assassins, because as you can see I bought TOP games and it is hard to choose which one to play in my short available time.
But I can see that it has excelent graphics, gameplay and lots of fun stuff to do. I recommend.

Ever since getting a Playstation, I've been waiting for a game with a large-scale city, with civilians that react to me and my presence, I just did'nt think I'd have to forfet gamepalya nd overal fun to get it. Assasin's Creed does give me 3 gorgeous, open-ended cities with all the skyscraping towers an acrobatic bad-ass could ever want, but besides that, theres nothing. Although I wanted a responsive city, I was hoping for a little more than platoons of bare-knuckle brawling lunitics and in-your-face beggars that will constintly blow your cover in the same 5 recycled missions.
The only motive that compelled me to play, was the historical-hitman storyline with a 21st century perspective that lines itself up right for the inevitable sequal. Cutscenes are free-moving with alternating camera angle options that where an obivious nod to Half-Life 2. Giving the protagonist Altiar, Anikin Skywalker characteristics made me feel like I was truly a Med-Evil Jedi. Especialy in the counter-combat animations, which were totally sick, even if the control scheme was a total button masher.
 Great Game but, lack a few things. March 15, 2008

The graphics were great very realistic, not to mention the whole medieval thing going. Very fun game to play the assasins are pretty cool and killing the guards are fun as well. Walking through the crowds and just the interacting between the people is amazing.
But here is what it lacking:
The game can be very repetitive though because you do the same thing every mission and after hours of play you dont want to play any more.
Changing the missions objectives up would be great becasue than it would be a challenge and keep you interested. They also should have added weather changes to the game. Assassinated targets in rain would have been great. There also wasnt many hiding places which is weird for a big city you would think that maybe you could hide in a tree or barrel or something or inside a building.
There also were a few glitches in the game. At times he would just freeze in the middle of the air and you would had to restart the system.
Overall the game was good but could of been much better. Hopefully the sequel will be better.
