Good for a couple hours...
Assassin's Creed starts out great and ends pretty great. However, the middle is really bland and repetitive. The controls are pretty good. Fluid movements allow for a greater experience. The storyline of the game has it's ups and downs. The last few hours of the game really ramp up the story and connect the dots. The ending obviously points towards a sequel and even though I didn't really enjoy playing Assassin's Creed as a whole, the ending really had me psyched to play the second one. I was sort of afraid of that and I hope I can steer clear. However, if I had to do it again I'd play Assassin's Creed, just because it's one of those games of a generation you just need to play, even if for a couple of hours.
