Assassin's Creed: Syndicate

Honestly, I came not knowing what to expect and stayed for one of the best games I had ever played. In fact, I could go on enjoying it for months.

Let's start with what stroke me first, which is, of course, the Victorian London. Saying 'it's breathtaking' would be an understatement. Even if you decide to explore the city first, you will never be bored exploring/looting/conquering, before embarking on main campaign.

As for the story-telling, Assassin Creed Syndicate is another pinnacle of perfectly executed cut scenes and voice acting. The writing and the execution are simply phenomenal, no other way to put it. The game is so immersive and addictive, I wouldn't even mind replaying it from scratch.

You'll most likely love this game whether you're a fan of the franchise or not. I'll go ahead and call it 'the second true Ubisoft masterpiece after Far Cry 3'. Being my first Assassin Creed experience (not counting 'Origins'), now having finished it I'm ready to play just any title in the series.

Assassin Creed Syndicate could've easily been the Game Of The Year, or least get a 'Must-Play', very surprised it didn't. It's not just one of the best games I've played, not just one of the most beautiful games, but one I will definitely play even after getting the platinum trophy.

What a trailer this game had truly amazing, I was totally hyped to play this as soon as it hit the shelves.

But all the excitement was welcomed by an above average game.

This is the most modern version of the AC game, I was truly exited to play this and honestly it does have some charms, the gritty and dirty London filled with Street thugs and cops was charming in it's own way. I also loved the addition of Marx and Dickens into the roaster of AC's Legendary figures from history.

But sometimes the repetitive tailing ,mission and lack of creativity for Assassination, loped out villain dialogues during fights and profoundly below par main Villain brings down the game quality quiet down.

Anyways being a diehard AC fanboy I will still give it a 7/10, Cheers..

The setting of 1868 London is beautifully created with a gritty "back alley" feel. Populated with colorful and interesting NPC's. It was a joy to explore. The characters dialogue and interactions were spot on. The story, while interesting, became lost amidst an endless barrage of formulaic side quests. Side quests that were essentially the same half dozen or so but on another section of map, which was barely distinguishable. Have you played the Godfather games? Grand Theft Auto? Don't expect there to be anything new here. The game play itself becomes repetitive after three hours, and painfully repetitive after six.

All in all, once the splendor of a dirty 1800's London wears off the game becomes a chore. Definitely worth a play, perhaps don't buy it and just play it at a friend's house for a few hours.

This is one of the best AC games in my opinion. To be fair, I have not played through all of them, but this one has far superior combat to any predecessor (except perhaps Black Flag). The story remains fairly interesting as opposed to many AC games that really suffered from poor story. The massive London map is beautiful, detailed, and a joy to explore. If you are looking for the greatest Assassin's Creed gameplay, I would recommend either this one or Black Flag.

Deeply annoying that you can't re-load at certain points. I was supposed to kidnap someone, the mission was going really well, dropped the body whilst I assissinated someone but instead it was the "Kidnapee" I killed. Amusing, but annoying af that you can't go back.
