I got this game a couple of weeks ago and have made it about half way through the storyline. Normally I'm a first person shooter guy and when I've played games like this in the past it's seemed impossible to aim accurately the way the controls are set up. This game eliminated that problem. When you have throwing knives you can select your target simply by pulling the left trigger(Xbox). This makes the controls so much easier and makes the game a lot more fun for me. Climbing is fairly easy too. There are a few difficult climbs that require you to be creative and that adds to the fun. You definitely feel a sense of accomplishment when you get to the top.
Pros:
Great storyline. You'll even hear some names from history that make the story seem more realistic
Great counter move sequences. You really can make some great kills
Great AI dialog. The AI dialog is all in context
Fun additional challenges. After you complete your investigation you can get more info by completing some challenges
Cons:
Repetitive action. Fighting the soldiers gets old. The fighting gets repetitive. I try to stay to the rooptops to avoid it.
Poor respawn points. There are times when you get killed that you respawn right next to the soldiers that are after you and you don't have a chance to deflect the first blow
Overall, this is a great game. I'm having a lot of fun with it.
 Repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, etc... November 12, 2009

This game has outstanding graphics. The game itself runs smooth most of the time, but there are long delays in loading times and your character's reactions can be extremely annoying in battle and when you run away from your enemies... and believe me, you will be running a lot.
The game is very repetitive too! The landscapes are great, but in each city you do the same mini-games and sub-objectives and it gets old after hours of play.
The fight sequences are cool when you can make a clean strike or block, but when you have multiple enemies, forget it, you're done!
The best things about the game; you get to ride horses across the countryside, use swords, leap off roof tops into haystacks, play the Crusades.
Probably not going to purchase Part 2.
 Don't you dare buy this game for PC November 2, 2009

This game will murder your computer. I've got a damn good system, better than the required though not quite to the recommended and I had to play this game on the lowest settings. Maybe if they had spent a little more time porting it to PC this could have been a smoother game, but honestly, the graphics are the only thing going here. It's hideously ugly on the low settings and it still lags like a mother. The interface is lousy, too, with limited options for customizing graphics and a maddening four screens to go through before you can quit to the desktop (Alt+F4 comes in handy here!). If the graphics had been better I may have made it a few more missions, but I highly doubt I would have finished the game.
The gameplay is lousy and repetitive. You're supposed to be a sneaky assassin, but there's no punishment for getting exposed or killing hundreds of guards. Hundreds. Literally hundreds. It's often easier to just kill all the guards than it is to hide and become anonymous again. The story might be good, but the repetitive "kill some archers for information", pickpocket and "interrogation" missions are dull, dull, dull. I'll admit that I stopped playing after the fifth assassination because it's so infuriating having to go through the same dumb sequences again and again. Your character has been stripped of his rank and is being punished by having to go through these piddling investigations so maybe the idea was to get you to pity the character, I guess. The only person really punished is the player, though, with this boring, buggy game. I'm just glad it only cost me $5 on Steam a couple weekends ago (I still feel ripped off), I pity the fool that bought this game for $50-60.
