Assassin's Creed: Windows
I heard about this game being on consoles a while ago but ignored it since I don't do consoles. When I heard that it was out on the PC I thought I'd give my new 9800GTX video card a good work out and picked it up.
It would be hard for me to be more disappointed in this game. The interface is immediately and noticeably the very thing I loath about consoles; a kludge of menus that could be one simple menu if they were designed to be used with a keyboard or mouse instead of a limited device like a game pad. That alone made it hard to continue, but I tried to get past that and tried to get into the game.
The game's next huge failing is the lame setup and plot line. I bought the game thinking it was either history based or fantasy based, but the game actually uses some lame Virtual Reality cover story to validate it's linear game play and confined world. It also attempts to add in some kind penalty for "bad" behavior even though it's a game about assassinating people. Sorry, you can't have your

This game is so life-like in its historical representation that it will emerse yourself in 1191 Crusades of the Holy Land. Here you follow the memories of Altair, the head Assassin as he conducts himself on nine missions (Not to mention a hundred side missions that you can enter freely of your own will). I can see this game engine use in other simulations, like Shinobe of Japan, or even a Bourne Supremacy game. The details are amazing, masses of people interact and the slightest mishap will draw you into an incounter. Fight or flee. Its your choice. One aspect of fascination is the computer's prediction on weather you will make a leap from one rooftop or not. Precision was taken to allow a sense of fear as the computer predicts based on your angle and speed. This changes with just a mili-second of decision. It is very real aspect to the game. Even the horses move with realism... A must have.

Pros:

- looks amazing
- fun to kill with swords and knives
- most assassinations are interesting and fun

Cons:
- at times the controls can be maddening, like when you want to disengage from a fight
- somewhat repetitive up until the last assassination
- can get confusing sometimes at what you are supposed to do

Bottom line - looks great, but the controls ruin it.
