Assassins Creed #9 In Games Critics Awards

Ubisoft Montreals Assassins Creed has been receiving some more praise as of late for what it brings to the table. It has been named Number 9 in the Games Critics Awards and touted as easily one of the most unique gaming experiences of this, or any other year. Adam Sessler, Host/Managing Editor, of G4’s X-Play had the following to say about it.

Assassin’s Creed is easily one of the most unique gaming experiences of this, or any other year. The emphasis is on “experience’ as the awe-inspiring articulation of the Crusades-era Middle East manages to make mere travels through cities and the rural countryside pleasurable as you absorb the details that make this hyper reality sublime in it’s perfection. The gameplay itself, be it the preternatural climbing and running, or the brutally effective combat, are so deceptive in their initial simplicity that you are unprepared for how complex, strategic, and arrestingly visceral they will eventually become. The writing as well is mature in a way that has little precedence. A subtle and thoughtful storyline doesn’t fall prey to the sophomoric technique of upending all reality in a perfect 180 degrees but, instead slowly peels back motive to reveal a moral ambiguity free of nihilism yet more troubling in its sincerity. In the end, this is a game that has stayed with me well after completion and I know I will be returning to for many gaming generations to come.
