  • I agree with them, I forced my self to play it because of the story but the sequels fixed most of the issues if not all of them, but i dont know if its just me but the graphics on this game are superior to those of the new games

  • Comment removed

  • Whoa whats with all the haters? The review was solid they talked about all the good things featured and all the problems with the game. They showed different gamers and opinions from Loving the game to hating it. Why is it custom to hate as soon as someone has a different opinion then you. They had legit arguments! I thought the game was beautiful and really had so many good things going for it but fell under the unbelievable amount of repetition. but this was all fixed in the sequel!

  • i wish my pC cud play it this fast,

  • fat morons

  • lol at 1:00 fuck the ladder. wait no i have to go down then back up

  • WTF so many trollers I liked the review, in looking around to see if it's a good series to get into and I liked the ups and downs

  • wow get a life or a real job or something you guys all look gay and sound gay and need to do something other than gaming

  • DON'T SHOW THE REVIEWERS.

    They are fat, and they are ugly and look like total nerdy stereotypes.

  • The ginger kid, the one who looks like the Shermanator from American Pie, fuck that guy.... go play fucking Army of 2 or some other retarded shooter.... this game has originality.

  • For some reason I like repeative games... Most people found KH:358/2 Days boring for that, I found it interesting considering that I wanted to know what will happen in the end, and I still enjoy playing it... I'm not much of a console gamer, so this maybe the game I will start out with...

  • That fat ass with the coffee was a dumb ass. This game sucked, so repetitive and boring, it was like taking a crap every day.

  • These guys are morons. Let's talk about the repetition of Grand Theft Auto IV. Oh yeah, that's right! It's overlooked because GTA is an overhyped, overrated, shitty series that has been around for decades!

  • I need 2 sell my 1st Assassin's Creed game and buy Assassin's Creed Brotherhood.

  • @ihopeutubedies LOL, sorry but AC1 isn't going to buy you Brotherhood. Kids these days...

  • @b00mQQ U understood wrong my friend. I don't intend on selling Assassin's Creed 1 in order to raise money for Brotherhood. I'm simply going to buy AC Brotherhood.

  • I love this game, and much more "variance" is added to the sequel. But ALL of them are beautifully done, not just the scenery, but the playability and combat far exceeded my expectations. The game is beautiful, well done, and almost too good ... how can their competitors possibly do anything better? I really LOVE this.

  • the reviewers were tough ...but they were right....even if i loved assassins creed I i knew that the game is not complete...and boring

  • Its a good review but there are some things like repetitive speech they shouldnt complain about since making a game this big requires alot of money and spending them on extra voice acting lines noone ever cares about would be a waste.

  • i really like the rew

  • this game's awesome!Assassin's Creed should get a 10/10!!! >: (

  • 1st one is boring as hell

  • Good review, very insightful and got the points. Way to go guys!

  • Looking back, I do realize the first had a ton of issues. And it was rather repetitive, but it was bound to be a bit shaky. It still holds a place in my heart. Now that the second one is out, though, the first one would be a struggle to play. It's just not of the same caliber. And that's a good thing. It means the franchise has evolved.

    I totally can't wait for the next one. I hope it's a bit longer though. XD I finished the AC2 too quickly.

  • @hitheresunshine if you finished AC2 quickly then either 1) you have no life or 2) you didn't do everything there is to do in the game.

    AC2 is a fairly long game, and I wouldn't expect ACB to be any longer tan AC2.

  • @b00mQQ

    I don't think you realize that for me, "quickly" is "within a few months".

    Considering I only got about 1-2 hours of game in on AC2 for 2-3 nights a week, I'd say that taking a month and a half to finish the storyline alone is pretty quick, and taking a few months after that for all the extras is nice, as well.

    College keeps me busy, so I don't get that much game time in. XD

  • Stop hating on the review. Grow the fuck up. They're totally right. The first AC kinda sucked, the second one is the amazing. Don't blame honest people for you wasted your money on an incomplete gaming experience.

  • @inigmastigmata

    I know right? This is a good, honest review. It's multidimensional, too. I really like that in reviews, even if I disagree with them.

  • yeah... i don't like this review

  • These people are fucking retarded you learn alot about what's going on in the present day you just have to work a bit they are realy stupid the game rules but they are all fags except for the guy that liked it.

  • Pretty sure they nailed it although this game was alright it is just a disapointment considering what it could have been if the story was a bit more complex and yes if you did one damn thing rather than investigate, and kill.

  • @preest300 so everybody who doesn't think like you or like the same things as you is a fag...

  • wow lame asses. you woke up early and u go no life. trying to be funny and stuff it seemed like 3 to 4 hours. nerds get a life just play games all day u guys sound retarted. arranged from liking and disliking the game? not funny fag. 0/5

  • LMAO... watching these guys was funny and sad at the same time.

    Hey 1up, if you send me a copy of Modern Warfare 2 I'll tell you what a vagina feels like.

  • @ifwere1021 theres 2 thing =s wrong with that u woodnt no wat one feelsike and are you that poor that u beg fir a game

  • @SpazzConnor7 theirs 2 thing=s wrong with that u doont know gramer and u lik penis for monee.

    Dumbass.

  • nerd argument lol

  • this game depend whit the person i myself like the first 1h and then it suck becouse it starts getting boring so i say a 7 ou of 10

  • this game is a matter of taste.

  • its really pathetic when someone rants about a game because it has a cliff hanger,if he was pissed off about this one, then hes really gonna hate the second one.

  • @chason229 yeah looks so shit

  • great review

  • I really liked this game. The only thing that started to bug me at the end was the fucking civilians. Those drunks that just push you always messed up my pickpocketing missions and eventually I just stabbed the beggars, they got so annoying

  • Heeeyyy its Matt Kiel. He works for G4 now.

  • I knew I had seen him before.

  • He is the one who wrote the review of AC2 for Xplay.

  • To be honest, if you are "going NO! i dont wana play the next game i want it now!" then they have created a good clifhanger

  • they seriously think it looks and is bad? that game looks incredible the graphics are amazing

  • they said the game looked great did you watch the review?

  • What they are saying is that the game is monotonic and gets boring after a while. They admit that the graphics, freerunning and combat is great.

  • i agree to

  • i stuck with this game its my fav i have cant wait for ac 2

  • good one

  • anal-knigths go ride eachothers cocks and dont be such douches!

  • its a good game but they couldve added more to the story line

  • hahaha,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, YOUR ALL VIRGINS lol

    (when you mentioned Spider man 2 i was pissing myself......)

  • lol me too

  • Comment removed

  • wow you guys suck royal ass at reviews

  • The guy with the gollum eyes has horribly flawed logic and should stay away from reviewing, they made the game with a sequel in mind, no shit they'll want to leave you with a cliffhanger. The fat review without the glasses pissed me off too, he literally seemed like he was pulling shit out of his ass. I'm not even a fanboy, but I just get the impression thato ne of these guys decided to hate the game and they all just followed suit.

  • +1, they came off to me as snooty and argumentative.

  • In all honesty it DOES get repetitive and boring after a bit, even the incredibly overrated but kick ass GTA4 has that syndrome as do most open ended world games do where u can go whever u want. But assassins creed is a decent game, but i think 1up was a bit too harsh but then again it IS their opinion! not everybody has to like AC.

  • the only thing i didnt like was it was a simulation the

    besides that one of the greatest game i ever played

  • Ya like I care about what they think.

  • Meh... I thought it was boring in my opinion -_-

  • no i agree

  • fuck all people that don't like assassins creed

  • Woah That Was Some Fucked Up Review The Game Was Awesome, I Loved Every Minute Of The Game

  • fucked up reviewers! the game was awesome!

  • Aggreed. These reviewers have bad taste. Motherfuckers.

  • sorry for double post but i also hate it when people say the climbing towers and using that bird view thing was stupid. i think it was genious, in them times they dont have GPS or sat navs, so your best option is higest point seek out the city DUUUH!

  • thats why they dont enjoy, '' i want to finish as fast as i can'' i hate it when people do that they dont play and enjoy the game they fucking race through it, just to go yeah k i finished it in a day crap blah blah, if ure rushing your not experiencing the full game. the only game i could jave finished in a day was COD4 but i paced my self.

  • at 7:52 is that assassins creed?

  • yes

  • yes it is when he's not in the game

  • yes.That is your second character

  • so they have to look down at there hands during gameplay you can tell they dont actually play them

  • get a life

  • These guys should just give up, they fucking SUCK at reviewing... Get out of here, 1up...

  • Just un-subscribed these guys, only one of them apreciated it for what it was and enjoyed the work put into it where as the others were impatient and spoiled.

    Terrible reviewers who can't look at the positive AND THEN say what needs to be improved, you don't just rant at a game saying everything that sucks and not mention the good elements, it makes it look biased or fake.

    Pathetic.

  • Fucking douchebags!

  • you are fucking stupid

  • those guys are fuckin losers like all of you who actually watched this video!

  • Like you.

  • dumb fuck u watched it 2 stupid cocksucker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • Plus the story validates the gameplay (in my opinion best story by far in a video game ).This game is an experience like no other and seeing altair climb is the best moment in video game history -unparalleled

  • yes this game is beautiful (every frame is a wallpaper ) which is very rare in gaming because it doesn't poke your eyes with brown shit

  • those guys were assholes who didnt accept the game for what it did offer: a beautiful open-ended world that allowed players to do whatever they wanted. the only person who I felt tried to back-up the assassins creed game was the guy with the brown hat <-------he deserves to play assassins creed II

  • Comment removed

  • putos ingleses,tene 36 años y todavia juega a xikulladas,joer es para matarle.directamente.(`-´)

  • it's a great game. but with some glaring weaknesses!

    If they take the critics seriously and change some of failures... I see, AC II will be a hell of a game!!

  • the only thing that ruined this game, is the dumb AI and repetitivness.

  • what do the flags do when u collect all of them

  • they are just for people who need to find the collectibles, and slash does kick ass \m/,

  • you get the making of trailers and producer comments

  • The flags do nothing but regenerate[sp] your health

  • i do agree on the things wrong in this game but i think it is done alot better than other games. this is one really well designed game.

    its also cool that the game is a simulation of a memory but other games are just games

    i dont think thers a game that can top this

  • i kno this aynt linked to the game but sum1 add me on ps3, my ID'S adeel09

  • this is mainly like a beefed up version of the dark brotherhood missions in Oblivion

    AC has the same flaw as Oblivion

    you eventually lose intrest

  • Seriously, I think this game was WAY WAY too monotonous. You seriously do the same three types of side missions, and the main assassinations are pretty much the only exciting part of the game. I say, buy at your own risk.

  • i sold it again to cex for £6

  • Assassin's Creed II comes out on November 17 2009 with the new assassin, Ezio Auditore di Firenze

  • Yay! Lets hope it's half a s crap as this one! Goodie! Im so excited!

  • It is absolutely amazing. 12 Hours in and and no repetition at all.

  • interesting story yes and colors yes referring to the new AC2

  • Nope, I own that on steam and it still sucks.

  • its just a game so calm down. if u dont like it and u dont want to play it, then dont

  • i wish they put this game on psp

  • there is going to be a psp game.

  • three things

    1.well the gameplay is kinda repetitive

    so hes kinda right

    2.give it achance

    3.its just a game so who gives a shit

  • AC sucked very hard. Console gamers doesn't appreciate what a good game is. This game is one of the biggest fails in history.

  • Bunch of nonames.....

    who cares what they say?

    AC´s the game of the year to me.

  • geeks

  • well... it does have a nice engine

    low hopes for the second i think it will be more of the same

  • So... how is the sea of ignorance? Because it seems you are currently basking in it.

  • well it looks that way but im pretty sure they added more weapons and ways to kill people wich in turn will make the game better and possibley funnyr in some parts if possible

  • It's not a good engine, it sucks

  • love this game

    cant wait for 2

  • god i dont even have this game

    and like

    i no its a bad ass game lol

    i play pc

    directors cut or normal game?!?!

    idk which oen to get

  • I don't care wat they say, assassin's creed is the best game ever. the combat system is great so is the story line. I've played the ipod version of it (which is pretty crappy compare to the pc/xbox one) I'm downloading the first one on my pc right now and I cant wait till its done.

  • should i get this game or wait for the second one???

  • Why would you play the second game in a trilogy first...

  • trilogy???? unless you ar counting the one coming out on the psp I dont think this is a trilogy.

  • the one on psp is not part of the trilogy, this is the 1st one, the second one is coming out soon, its even named "assassins creed 2"

  • i would get both cuz it's not coming out till chrismas

  • get both, they are awesome

  • i played it in ps3 and now on pc and i prefer pc!the game is realy repetitive,its fun at start,to gain your weapons and single-handed take over a dozen guys lol and walking in the middle of the crowd and push them away makes you real feel like a badass

  • Lol these guys didnt get what half the game was.. You weren't going on top of the towers to magically see people to eavesdrop, it was to recover your memory. They should've payed more attention to the in depth story line and the basis it had in our actual history instead of paying attention to the things a moron could have drawn from it at a glance. Assassins Creed was an excellent game and i cant wait for the 2nd one

  • my 5 fav parts about the game

    1. The story

    2. The story

    3. the story

    4. the story

    5. THE STORY !

  • 6. THE ASSASSINATIONS

  • 7. riding over people on your horse :-D

  • the guy who says at the end "you guys tell me what happens cuz i dont wanna play it anymore", he only talks like twice throughout the whole video! he was barely in it. i think the first time it showed him it was like 7 minutes into the video already XD. p.s. i am $25 away from getting my 360. should i buy this game? cuz it looks awesome to me.

  • definite YES, it's awesome

  • i am going to buy this game tomorow but i don't think that u should. insted buy gta IV or bionic comando as ur first game :) BUT whatever u do,do not buy assasin  alone, but if u really want it try to buy 2 games because first u will become addicted to it but after like 3 hours u will turn off ur Xbox.. so buy 2 games if u can afford it. haha my first game was Crackdown XD

  • well i didnt see this comment until today, so i got my 360 and off to gamestop. i ended up buying Halo 3 and Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter. So now taking your advice into hand, i guess i can get Assassin's Creed now concidering i have my first 2 games :)

  • Yes buy it. It's an excellent game, these guys are fools. It's my favorite game and i've played tons of the new nex gen games. It is a little repetetive but trust me it more than makes up for it. Besides its 20$ used at gamestop now..

  • i hate the guy wit the big ass eyez

  • Also this game had so much hype before it, that the expectations for the game were Sky High, and when it failed to deliver, people turned on it. It kind of shot itself in the foot before starting the race.

  • The game lacks in every area which would make it a "Good game". The whole thing feels quickly thrown together and the lack of achievements for the "GTA" style side quests are soul destroying. Above all though, hearing those damn people all say the same thing when I save them almost drove me to smash my PC into pieces. If you want something fun and nice to look at with a heavily disappointing structure and re playability then this is the game for you.

  • Assassins Creed was better on PC. The Side Quests are built and structured alot better with actual meat to the sub plots they offer. The game was re-done on PC but that still doesn't make the game replayable just to kill all the Templars and Flags doesn't seem worth it to me. The City and setting was gorgeous and fun as hell to run around in. I Give the game 7.5/10. The Kingdom Area is worthless without any quests to flesh out the area.

  • 9:05-9:10 is mad funy i want to play it now

    this guy realy want to play ac2

  • LOL this wants me to buy the game more

  • + the graphics are just awesome.

    +big open environment

    - Combat was way too easy.

    - you do too many times the same thing.

    the game feels realistic but until you kill hundreds of guards without running and without getting killed ( and people are still wondered who this could have done, with you standing praying on some dead bodies) :)

  • FUCK!!!, now i know the twist!

  • Hahahahaha! Turkish Star Wars is playing on the TV in the background! Suddenly I have much more respect for these guys.

  • it basicly depends on what type of gamer you are to decide if you'll like this game or not, short attention span people who need the flashy instant satisfaction wont like this game, the more patient gamer will.

  • If you have a short attention span (like me) get Prototype. Seriously. That (should) be more appealing, anyway.

  • Im a more patient and less eager gamer. Assassins Creed looks awesome and Prototype looks great too, if only I had an XBOX360.

  • Prototype isn't Xbox exclusive, you know!

  • prototype is on ps3 too

  • I say the present time parts keep the game realistic

  • these guys are fucking prats

  • why dont u guys let the reviews be done by gametrailers and ign, you guys suck.

  • uhhhhhh i was considering buying this game because it's cheap for pc (20 dollars) but idk these guys make it seem like a bad game but i'm probaly gana buy it anyways cause it's only 20 bucks

  • it is defiantly a very addicting game :)

  • Wakng up at 7 is early? Fucking snob.

  • its not silly that u have to look from the tower that makes it cool couse u have to climb first to get there thats cool

    the controlls are good to but dont say its a bad game couse u guys think that

  • well you might be experts but over all you are not objective.

    i dont like the game but its a great game and one of the bests games done and pretty elegant too.

    Perhaps its all the same stuff and you only assasinate but its the first of this tipe.

    Dont give such a bad publicity only because youve played the game and dislke it.

  • great game, cant wait for the second one!!!!!

    can anyone tell me what happens to the crossbow from the beginning video, i was looking forward to having that and u never get it...

  • What crossbow?

  • good question i dont think you ever get to use the crossbow in the game

  • yea because they removed it from the game because they didnt have crossbows in that time

  • ooohhh, ic, thanks for clearin that up!!

  • NP...

  • Its a good game.. alot of people make the mistake of not playing past the first 20 minutes, which sort of defeats the games purpose :P
