Poll of the Day > Wow, Assassin's Creed 1 is amazing!

(+) Yeah! (+)

I started the game today, and because I skipped the vast majority of the side stuff, I not only am almost done with the game, but it doesn't really feel that repetitive, and what I'm left with is a really great experience with some very compelling characters, and really intense action.

Wish I had starting focusing less on side content for games a long time ago, because this is just awesome!

It's fine to do all the side stuff in 2, but 1 is best rushed through.
---

I'm not sure if this is a joke or not because, having played the first one, I wouldn't say there's very compelling characters or really intense action anywhere within it.
---

When assassins creed 1 first came out it was amazing. Revolutionary, quick moving, interesting story, most of all it was fun.

It got repetitive. Hard to finish.

2 took everything one was and made it better. 2+ (brotherhood) did the same thing. The same but better.

Then they took a huge step back for revelations, and then a massive step back for 3.

It surprises me how video game companies never seem to see their game and go, okay this was fun and this was not fun, lets expand on the fun parts and scale back on the unfun parts.

It's really intense when you're trying to stealh kill all these enemies without getting caught, when you're fighting a ton of enemies at once while hearing that music man!

that swaid, I meant that there's a really compelling main character.

When the first one came out I was still playing on my GameCube and ps2 saying I didnt need a ps3 or a 360. Playing assassins creed at a friends house was what made me go I need a 360

You haven't played Batman: Arkham games I take it. Now THAT first game blew me away.

Oh, absolutely, the first 2 Asylum games are near perfection!

I haven't played all the games, but black flag,which I think is the fourth game, is the best one imo

It was a good game and I wish it was like that still.

meh, a bunch of people recommended Black Flag, it was fun at first but then the ship battles got so old, so fast!
