New Series Looks Inside Development Of Assassin's Creed III

I'm still undecided about this title. Assassin's Creed has never appealed to me, but the whole "Indian killing white men" gimmick sounds really cool (said the gamer with two different tribes of Indian blood).

Augh, decisions.

As a half South Korean Homefront was purchased for the simple fact I could kill members of an invading North Korean Army. Do what you feel in your heart Shade, do what you feel in your heart.

First game actually was really bad but it was like a rough draft of what they wanted. Every game since then has gotten progressively better with revelations being when they finally starting making there stride. So I have high hopes for this one(To bad ubisoft is lame and releases the pc version a month after consoles)

It wasn't really bad. If you played it after any of the other games it seems that way. It was just repetitive and wasn't as deep as the newer games. They spent so much time creating this engine that they didn't have much time to create content for the first game. I can't wait for AC3 and think I think it will be the best one yet.

The first game made the most sense. Synchronization instead of health, the way Desmond has sessions with the Animus, all this and more made the game good. Although ACII is still my favorite, the first is definitely 2nd best in my book. I assume the real reason people don't like it is because they caught onto the series late, and the latter games with all their bells and whistles made the first game appear boring to them. For me, this isn't the case.

It was repetitive, story once in the world seemed boring. The controls didn't work well for me(I didn't have a controller yet) and the engine ran a lot worse even on my good pc at the time. I played them one after the other but i didn't start playing the series until brotherhood had came out.

Just to clarify I have a deep stance against ubisoft drm and have only borrowed the first two games. Brotherhood seemed like the first one that only required a internet check once at install which is at least more agreeable.

Seems like all that PC mambo jumbo is what ruined it for you. It wasn't a bad game. Some things you just have to play on consoles.

I think I can disagree on the console part unless developers screw something up or they force console exclusive. The one thing I will give the first game is it did have the free roam down. The rest I could leave and in fact when I introduce my friends to the series I tell them to go to youtube and just watch what happened in the first game. Every game after that was much better.

I just used my Xbox 360 PC controller and it worked fine. The DirectX 10 visual enhancements were nice, but you had to have played it before the other games or you will ruin it for yourself.
