"I have been waiting for Assassin’s Creed for a long time. On seeing ads for it my friend Jesse described it as 'the kind of game Aladdin might have starred in if he ditched the fruity monkey and started hanging out in opium dens.' With a hook like that, how could I resist?
Seriously though, with its interesting story, gorgeous graphics and artwork and the cool parkour simulator, it looked to be a contender…
Props to Ubisoft for not shying away from covering religious topics in the game, but a boo and a hiss to them for canning the book trilogy due to accompany it - doh!
