I was never hyped for this title but I was still intrigued to play the game based on the fact it was developed by the PoP team...The most impressive game features are visuals/animations and platforming...I thought the cut-scenes were pretty interesting and definitely unique, kept my interest throughout the game...The AI is pretty good, although stupid at times can be relentless and overbaring, which you would hope when some random citizen screams out "Assassin!!"...Climbing roof tops and assassinating guards is fun....climbing building is a blast. The controls work very well...most of the time. Sometimes the camera angle can cause problems, especially when you're on the run from guards and need to know the area and the camera gets stuck on a corner or you get glitched. The letdown is that there isn't much aside from collecting flags (which isn't as fun as Crackdown), doing the necessary investigation missions and saving random citizens...at first its interesting but about half-way through it gets really reptitive and may cause some to just not want to finish the game altogether. It's still worth a rental but a buy? I just cannot recommend it when Mass Effect and other titles that are better are avaliable...
