EDGE Give Assassin's Creed: 7/10

Edge write:

"Ubisoft's Third Crusade-era adventure is beautiful, ambitious, and flawed.

With his stalking gait and effortless run, his swift killing strike, his fearless parkour skills, Assassin's Creed's star, Altaïr, is a triumph of animation in videogames.

Never before has a player character been depicted with such clarity: the responsiveness with which he turns during a run; the way he palms off a wall to recover from a shove – control is never impeded and his physical connection with his environment is continually reinforced." 7.0/10
