Assassin's Creed 3 (Xbox 360)(2CD)

Don`t be put off by the Negative Nancies who complain it`s not a good AC game... Assassins Creed 3 takes all the previous AC titles, looks hard at them and slaps them back on their dusty shelf! It is WAY better than previous versions. Why? - The Gameworld is HUGE. Just running around the frontier, flipping through trees, setting snares and hunting wild animals, while diving off trees/waterfalls into rivers and exploring the massive wilderness in general, is incredible. Add the fact you can improve a homestead, trade, indulge in mini games etc. Oh and being able to sail your own warship is incredible! The controls feel just right and the graphics are fantastic! - Graphics are beautiful in this game. One of the most visually impressive games on Xbox 360 to this date. A lot of care and detail has been spent on this game and the new graphics engine really does impress. They really captured the ambiance and atmosphere of the frontier well. - Story is quite compelling and weaves it`s magic like the previous AC titles. The tutorial is not as restrictive as some would make out because it is part of the main story line and not some obvious hand holding 10 minute gimmick. I suspect some people are just not patient and want to be free roaming from the get go. - Controls are for the most part, very intuitive and free flowing. Combat is more enjoyable than previous AC games once you become used to the tweaked system. Free running can be a bit twitchy at times but still very smooth and awesome to indulge in. Flipping through tree tops is just FUN. - Game Content is absolutely huge! much more than any previous AC titles and at times this game feels almost like playing an RPG. Kudos to the Developers for evolving the AC series. Some days I just like to roam the snowy frontier and manage my homestead.. Assassins Creed 3 is a phenomenal game. It has everything for Action Junkies and RPG`ers alike, only limited by the Gamers imagination. A definite Game of the Year for me. Roll on AC4...

May contain Spoilers. Assassin's Creed 3 is an amazing 3rd person action, adventure, shooter.It is set in Coloniel America, in the first sequence you are in Boston, in sequence 3 you unlock the Frontier, in sequence 7 you unlock New York. This is my first Assassin's Creed game and it is amazing. The Graphics are amazing I loved it the second I started Playing. For the first three Sepuences you are Connor's dad ,Haytham Kenway, and the first three sequences wasn't as good as the rest but it was still entertaining. After I had finished the first 3 sequences the game started to get a lot better. The main story is long and action packed. After You have finished the story there would still be a wide range of side missions such as Liberation missions, Homestead Missions, Naval missions, Navel Locations (Captian Kidds Treasure Hunt) and Privateer Contracts. There is also a wide range of Collectibles such as Almanac Pages (Find 4 pages of a Volume and unlock the whole Volume)Peg Leg Trinkets (Find a certain amount and get a Navel Location from Peg Leg) and treasure Chests (open and get crafting Recipies or Money or even both! Ther are 4 clubs (Hunting Society, Frontiersman, Boston Brawlers and the Thief Club)in the game and to become a member you have to do a little bit of the thing they are about

It is important that AC is 3 in this franchise. When playing in this huge open world vast lands you will feel almost like it is like virtual country club. Spanning such timelines with character variations of different plotlines and the huge simulation input means that this will be well remembered. To be hooded and skilled in your weapon of choose will mean you are just some 'nobody', yet you are tasked with mammoth challenge of pursuing your quest to ensure righteousness is achieved throughout. Excellent work from Ubisoft once again. Thanks

I've just spent seven days with this, and it has it's good points, but I thought I'd concentrate on the negative, if you paid full price you should get your money's worth. The main character's delivery is so tedious, I can only guess it was recorded in isolation and read off cards, fortunately most of it is cut-scene which you can skip. The sound levels are all over the place too, I can't make out half of what's said without risking being deafened the other half of the time. If you love cut scenes this is the game for you, it feels like it was done by a frustrated movie director, personally I like to be involved in the action, but you spend a great deal of time just watching and not doing. The assassin briefings would have been so much better if you could have them on the move as part of the action, not yet another cut scene. The finale chase, tracking down Lee took me hours and was achieved by fluke, rather than planning. This guy has a mind of his own when it comes to deciding what he'll hang on to and where he's going to jump. A chase should be challenging, not frustrating. The running and jumping are the same as the other games, which should be a good thing, but he's constantly bumping into things, turning for no apparent reason, hard to aim at a hand-hold, and really, really annoying. Whoever designed the recipes interface needs a good slap too, trying to scroll through materials and ingredients is tedious, and you always have to start from the top and work pretty much blind - stupid. One of the missions is to hang a painting - and it involves more cut-scenes than action. He appears to be more of a delivery boy (paper, dolls and hair-pieces) in this game than the tank-driving, plane-flying hero of the last game. When you finally get back to the present you'll spend an enjoyable hour or so listening to some mythological drivel, which you can't skip, and endless credits which only goes to show that throwing a few hundred people at a project isn't going to guarantee results. It's full of bugs, people popping into view and popping out, glitches, animals stuck in trees and rocks, and irrelevant notifications. At one point you seem to be able to open doors and walk through, but the for the rest of the game you apparently need a cut scene to go through a door. And on a more serious note all the fun parts of II - Leonardo's discoveries - are missing from this game, the best innovation is the Privateer missions, and there are all too few of them, and they are all pretty much the same also. Free-running is a pain too, the towns are designed with nice big gaps between buildings, and the frontier has routes that go nowhere, and are just for the sake of it, so you just get going, and plop, you've no-where to go. All-in-all if you pay a tenner or so it's okay, but UBISOFT need to stop writing pretentious drivel and make a game, and concentrate on game-play.

So, here it is folks, after 9 months of waiting since the reveal trailer was released, we finally get to see AC3 in all its glory. We've seen the E3 trailer, we've watched the gameplay, and if you're a true AC fan, you've played all the previous games hoping to see this awesome story come to a head. So you pick up where we left at the end of Revelations - Desmond an co. outside the Grand Temple. Once inside, Juno makes Desmond relapse into a state where he has to be put back into the animus and relive the life of one of his ancestors - Haythem Kenway. Personally I find Haythem to not be much of a likeable character, but he does have some great lines which make you smile. After recovering a strange key, Haythem is set on a journey to America to find the temple, believing that the key in his posession will unlock its entrance. He helps save some tribes-people that live on the land, hoping that in doing so, they'll return the favour by showing him where the temple is. As you'd have it, one of the tribes-people (Ziio) shows him the entrance, once after Haythem kills an English Commander that is. In doing so, Haythem and Ziio form a strange bond and eventually they fall in love, making way for the ancestor we all wish to see - Connor Kenway! From the start, you're introduced to the new mechanics of the game, all of which have been completely revamped - the controls for instance, which have changed considerably from previous AC titles. The visuals are absolutely mind-blowing, one thing that caught my eye especially was the open sea. (The water - it actually looks like water!) The frontier is incredibly detailed, making you not even want to use the "fast travel" option, but instead free-run through the trees and take in the immense amount of detail that you can't help but think that the game designers must feel a sense of pride in. The animations are smooth, and the combat is deliciously brutal! It's quite difficult at first, but eventually you figure out how to kill each archetype, and then you feel confident when getting into sticky situations. If you're worried about the new controls (like I was!), don't worry, you adapt quite quickly. Naval Battles were something I was quite sceptical about, as they looked like another kind of den defense from ACR, but they're actually insanely good fun!! Overrall gameplay-wise, this has got to be one of the best games...ever. I wish I could say the same for the story... If you're new to AC, then I'm sorry, but there's a lot of things you will not understand, despite Ubisoft's assurance that people can hop on to AC on this title. Assassins Creed fans are already confused at this point, and newcomers will just have a really hard time figuring out what is going on. In terms of Desmond, you do FINALLY do something other then pointless tasks. You're sent to different cities, searching for power-sources for the Temple, and we do get to see a taste of what a modern AC game would look like. He actually has to put his training to the test now! The overrall story is very long-winded, but I find that to be a good thing - I'm not paying 40 quid for something I'll finish in 3 hours! (AC3 infact took me anything from about 14-18 hours to complete). It does however have slight holes to pick at, and you can't help but think "why did i just do that". For instance, one of the main "bad guys" in the game is a man named Charles Lee, and Connor is given so many chances to kill him, but instead attends to something else. In my eyes, a true assassin would have killed this man on the spot, regardless of who his allegiance is. There's also a lot of glitches. Although I can't really put the game down for this, as they're issues easily overcome (and every new game has them), the few glitches I did experience really affected what I should have experienced. My Desmond has a "back boner", where theres just a triangle poking out of his back and through his bag. Not a big deal, but is very distracting. I also find that when I kill an enemy on a corner, the game still registers them as alive, and so a corpse is shouting "I'm going to kill you". That especially doesn't help when you've got someone following you - they start attacking thin air... The soundtrack is also mediocre. Previous titles have been composed by Jesper Kyd, and every time, he's done an amazing job. However, Lorne Balfe, although talented, does not deliver the same amount of awe in his music as Jesper Kyd. I think there's only 2 tracks I'd bother putting on my iPod. But my overrall problem - and this is my main issue - is the ending. Now...I've never played Mass Effect (regrettably, as it does look good) but I've heard a lot about how Mass Effect 3's ending was one of the most disappointing things in history. Well, I think I've experienced something that can top it! The ending for this game is the biggest pile of dog-muck I've ever witnessed. ***Spoiler*** Juno and Minerva have this little spat, and everything Desmond's story was built up to was ended in about 10 seconds. There's so many holes in this. Desmond was "chosen" presumably to do something incredible. Instead, he does what pretty much ANYONE could have done. Touch a glowing ball. WOW. *****End***** After all the build up for Desmond from previous games, you're expecting to see AC4 be completely modern-day, with Desmond focusing on destroying Abstergo and killing the Templars once and for all. But no. Instead, Ubisoft just took a massive crap on their most successful franchise. Therefore, I give this game 3/5. The gameplay is incredible. The story is not. If you are an AC fan, you've obviously got to get this, but prepare to be majorly let down... *Cue non-helpful ratings and comments about how my review is rubbish..* =/

Often find that amazon game reviews are often more helpful when buying a game than the reviews done by the people actually paid to do them, so hear goes my 1st 1. IHave been a big assassins creed fan right from the 1st game, however I found they got boring, tedious and repetitive as the series went on with me not even completing the brotherhood and failing to buy revelations, liked the plot and different time setting that the 3rd brought. Have over 10 hours play time already and 1 word....WOW. The new American civil war setting is a stark contrast from the likes of Rome in the previous games but bring does not disappoint.The countryside 'frontier' is vast and a lot of fun, the tree running feature is very smooth and a lot of fun, stalking a bunch of redcoats by running across the treeline above them never gets old. The graphics and level of detail in the series has always been superb but AC3 is truly amazing.iv noticed small things that I would never have noticed in any other games, like the way you can see human and animal breath in the cold weather, how the shadows of the building move along the ground with the movement of the sun and moon overhead thoroughout the day.The water and detail of buildings is the best iv ever seen in any game The cities feel truly alive and are a lot of fun just to explore and get chased around by the redcoats.the naval missions where you control a boat are a lot of fun also, the I have ben playing for over 10 hours and only explored 23% of the map and completed 20% of the game, and only a fraction of the total storyline, which I have to say seems to be the best and richest of the entire series so far. I could talk for hours of how impressed iv been with this game already but I want to get back playing it instead. best of the series so far and well worth a purchase!!

An underrated game in the AC franchise. One of my favourites

Ill keep this quick but true.THE GAME IS AWESOME!!!!.The single player is the main part and it takes ac to new heights because its bigger in terms of scale and features the biggest world in ac to date it also has a beast of an assassin called Connor who has the biggest range of cool s*** to date.For the first time theres also naval battles which are epic in every way and increases the games bang for your buck.The game also has an incredibly large multiplayer component with cool characters and equipment but what separates it apart from your standard call of duty fix is that it requires you to think before you jump into the fray.As well as all that there will be tons of dlc content released so for 20 pounds your getting a great bargain.AC fans will be pumped

Figata

This one gets panned a lot out there. I love it. You get really into the story line. Take your time...enjoy the ride. So many great missions to do and the open world is amazing. Don't listen to what they say out there...give ACIII a go.

Esta 100% ingles con lo cual si no lo tenéis dominado mejor pasad de el, historia muy americana pero interesante no trae dlc's pero igual son una tontería de la cual jamas en la historia paso nada de lo que dicen los ridículos dls's, no hace falta cambiar de disco cada vez uno se instala otro se pone para jugar, destacar que tanto la caja como los discos estaban como nuevos una delicia para colección.

Ottimo venditore. Il prodotto era difettoso ha provveduto a restituire l'importo versato immediatamente senza richiedere riscontro. Cortesi e rapidi nelle risposte. Anche questo è importante quando si compra on line.

Una classico tutto ok
