Asassin's Creed is an ambitious game, it took a few risks making this kind of game. There were others like this in the past, like tomb raider and prince of persia, but this one is rehashed, and generally better than thos other two franchises. The story is great, you'll get quite a few history lessons here, all the characters play theire role very good, the surroundings are superb, the crowds, everything is so good you actually feel you're in 1191 AD. One more thing about the storyline: you'll notice from the start that you, yourself aren't in fact in the years of Altair, you're not even Altair, he's your ancestor and you are in the Animus, a device that reads your DNA and analyzes your ancestor's memory. Pretty good I'd say, and how you're introduced to this device in the game is credible. The only annoying part about this is that you'll have to do little pauses between sitting in the Animus and living Altair's memories and going to sleep. It's not really a big deal, but sometimes you're so engaged in the story and then... "you'll have to take a break, Desmond". It's soo annoying X(
