Assassins Creed

Yes, but I normally prefer to play such games using a mouse + keyboard combination. I will trying it with a PS2 controller though as it should definitely be much easier.

The only games I can think of that are more playable with mouse/keyboard are definitely FPS, but I think that all other genre of games play well with a controller.

RTS? Sorry couldn't resist.

Assassins Creed is pretty much geared up as a FPS but with an over the shoulder view point. I think it depends on the game really.

Weird that the same kind of bugs that plagued the console versions were carried over to the PC version.

I've considered trying this game out, but simply had too many other games lying about. The newly purchased CycloDS Evolution for my DS didn't help much either, in that regard.

Oops, forgot about that, you're right.

Hmm, I have this game on the PS3...it gets quite meh after a while, there is no variation to anything...the same thing, over and over...

While it is true that once you get past the good introduction sections and into the main assassination missions it does start to follow a pattern for each mission, but I've not found it boring yet.

From what I've played so far you can really see the influences of the development team's previous games on this one. Especially the Prince of Persia and the Splinter Cell series. But most of all I think it takes many ideas and its feel from the Thief series, and I remember reading that some of the AC developers were originally involved in developing the Thief games; the third still being just as good as when it was released in 2004 and worth playing if you haven't done so yet.

Yep you definately can see those influences
