I thought Assassin's Creed was great. I really enjoyed that game, even just walking around... There was just so much shit to climb, and finding creative ways to lead guards on a chase throughout the city was good, good times.

I really enjoyed the aspect of the game and hopefully they improve on the other aspects of the game. Collecting stuff is for games like Banjo Kazooie and World of Warcrack, not a game where you are an assassin.

I did enjoy the game too. Just saying, this game could have been much better, doing the same missions at every city gets annoying.
"does anyone think these games are kind of similar in a general term."
I've noticed this, too. You basically repeat variations of the same objective over and over again until the game is done. In AC, it was finding towers, synchronizing, performing some sidequests, then pulling off the assassination. That's most of what you did the entire game. Same thing with Prince of Persia; go to a node, make your way to the fertile ground, fighting the boss, then heal the fertile ground. In Far Cry 2, it's accepting a mission, driving to the objective, accomplishing it, then returning back to base.
I think the point is to give people a predictable and accessible experience, so even if youre busy you know you can play Prince of Persia or Assassin's Creed for a half hour to an hour and get some shit done. The downside is that a lot of people are turned off by the repetition. I think that complaint is totally valid, but I enjoy their games anyway.
You've realized that most Ubisoft Montreal games share a liking for repitition, amazing graphics, slightly ambiguous but usually enjoyable stories, and some strange gameplay choices. Welcome to the club :-). Some people like it, some people don't. Assassin's Creed is one of my favorite games. Far Cry 2 is not. It's hit or miss.
