That would indeed be so incredible.

And I have to agree that AC1 was not bad. At the time. Like I said, it was the first game I played on the 360 and it hooked me immediately. I found the story pretty good, because Altair was indeed a great man. Also, it only became repetitive the second time I played it, which was maybe 3 years later. By then I had played AC2, so of course it made the flaws obvious. If you played them in quick succession or even out of order, then obviously AC1 wouldn't be so amazing... Or you could actually just genuinely dislike it I suppose and that's your right to.

I still wouldn't call it the worst, though. I've thought about it a lot before and I really do think AC:R (Altair missions aside) might be my least favorite.

But it's the same game, just with a new character.

The problem is not with Desmond's death, the problem was there was no pay off to the 5 games I spent playing through Desmond. He achieved nothing. I spent 6 years playing it and got nothing in return. Just a giant middle finger with $ signs for prints.

How is it the same game? You spend time looting and going after other ships for their treasure. Like a pirate. Connor never did that unless it was a specific Templar/Assassin based treasure.

Plus, the idea of an Assassin Pirate in itself is an oxymoron. Assassins tend to fight for freedom of choice, where Templars fight more along the lines of "peace through tyranny/control." Pirates however, it's all for one, take everything and give nothing back. Sure there's a sense of brotherhood on a pirate ship, but in the end, how far does that go. Even in a latest AC4 trailer, Edward says his only concern is his ship and crew, which isn't very "Assassin" like in the least. We know Connor's story. We know Altair's story, Ezio's as well. We don't know Haytham's complete story or his father's, Edward Kenway's story. So how is it the same game?

Well, like I said, the AC Calendar (yes I bought it) has no mention whatsoever to Desmond's death and that came out after AC3 did. Also, there has been PoEs known to bring the dead back to life

Though I feel that story should have had a better ending and I'm upset regarding it, I think there are other stories that will pan out due to it. If not, and they decide to use the "Templar Cloud", that's fine with me as well. History is their playground after all.



I'm not sure what to make of this. Can you explain? As this is a discussion board, I can only respond to discussion in kind. Thanks.

I tend to think of AC1 as an open beta for the AC2. It had the skeleton of the later games, but everything is much rougher and/or not fully realized.

Agreed, and like I said before, Ubisoft learned from AC and created bigger and better games from it.

A friend found them in a TRU in Maryland the other day too.

I really wish WalMart or Target would carry them... Because as it is, I'll have to be getting them online. :/

Reviews are up, and actually have been for a while now. :lol

Not bad, good amount of accessories, and they don't have V-hips as originally expected.

Very little useful articulation between the knees and shoulders, that's what I was afraid of. :(

I'll still likely pick this guy up if I can find him. I love these games and I want to have all of the main Assassins.

Edward is better but Haytham is worse, so yeah a mixed bag all around. But not as awful as the first pics made it look like
