Was fun playing Halo with you and your boys Rex, let's do it more often.
My first impressions of Assassin's Creed: Rent it first.
Don't take this as regret for purchasing this game at all. I love it so far. But I'm also into the kind of game that focuses on ninja assassination skills and stealth. If you're a stickler for stunning graphics, this isn't the game for you.
The graphics are about a 7 on a 10 scale... I'm a little jaded from having played CoD4 for the past few days. It's noticeably worse though; lots of clipping, an overall haziness used to hide imperfections and lack of clarity at graphic thresholds, REALLY bad shadows... especially on the cinematics. Like, you can literally see squares where there should be smooth lines. Fingers coming through fabric where they shouldn't, etc.
Gameplay is good so far though, good progression of skills, global choice of attack routes. If I had to give it a preliminary grade, I'd give it a B.
