Assassins Creed: You must watch this
10:11 PM on 12.10.2006, World Famous 52 comments

     Geek Essentials

Another video from X06 that has finally hit the general public, this Assassins Creed gameplay footage for the Xbox 360 will give you a whole lot of something to look forward to. First thing you'll of course notice is that the game looks absolutely amazing. The second thing is the amount of freedom you'll have in the game. Must buy? After watching this video, I think it certainly looks to be.

We have the standard version above, but I recommend you check out the HD version instead.

Someone had posted a bootleg of it from the show a few months ago, but this is the first time it's available in HD I think

Amazing... the movement system looks like its going to be great fun to watch even when your not playing it... The sword play looks like its on it way to becoming all I've ever wanted in a fighter, and the setting/period is my ideal environment.

I have high hopes for this game and really hope they are realized... so far it seems that they are doing everything right! Fricken modling old school crusader environments is a History minors wet dream!

That game looks ridiculous. Definitely a must buy in my book.

Anybody else read what the screen says at the end when the lady says, "I can't about what's on the screen behind me..."

One of the options is "memories", and when highlighted states, "Access your genetic memory."

Could Altair be a clone? And instead of reloading a save, it's like you're cloning yourself to retry the mission?

Or am I completely wrong in my thinking?

Stupid Typo's. That should have said, "I can't TALK about what's on the screen behind me..."

Some dude, yeah, I know, but this is the clear version which does the game absolute justice. And, as some said, they hadn't seen it before. Either way, this game was always an after thought for me. After watching this, damn, I want it.

"Could Altair be a clone? And instead of reloading a save, it's like you're cloning yourself to retry the mission? "

I bet 'ya it's a virtual simulation. Even way back on a Gamespot article, they said when he died, there was a message that said "System Error" or something like that...

Thanks Ubi for keeping it real on the 360. Glad this wasn't a PS3 exclusive. ;)

OMG ppl still play great games like this on their crummy pc. :O
To deny the power of 360 is to deny the very thing that makes us human. Something like that...

This game looks amazing. Is it just me or does the main character kind of stand out in a crowd?

I had considered getting this game for PC, but since I'd probably have to drop quite a bit of coin to upgrade my computer for it, and since I'm going to be getting a 360 anyway, I might as well get the 360 version. We'll see how it goes, though, when the time comes.

It might surprise some people that the guy that runs Destructoid doesn't own a 360. I held out for an entire year without getting one, as a visit to my friend's house on occasion would suffice and I really thought the PS3 was going to have a much stronger launch. That said, guess what's under my Xmas tree already. :)

I felt the same way Niero, so I got myself an early christmas present, and its not under the tree.

Even though I had seen it before, I did enjoy the HD video linkage. Man, I hope M$ gives us a bigger HDD in the premium 360 (or a price drop) before this game hits.
