Impressive. Best assassin’s creed game in the series. Though I have yet to play odyssey. A metric tonne of new ideas take the series in a new direction. A little more emphasis on combat and a new combat system to make each engagement exciting. Threw out some old items, but added in welcome new one’s to shake things up. Wait til’ you see what things you’ll be fighting against with these new mechanics. The map area is the biggest thus far, by several times. I placed a marker on the map far from where I was positioned and it read over 10,000 metres. Jaw hit the floor. That’s 10 kilometres of game space or 6 miles, depending on which measurement you’re used to. I’m still playing the game, but was compelled to leave a review early as it’s been a week or so with the game straight and I look forward to playing it every...single...time. Game making at it’s rarest.

This is the best sports documentary ever made....full stop. I’m talking fat kid holding an ice cream cone trying to race Usain Bolt, the gap is that far apart. Each episode watches like a movie. For me, brings back a lot of memories as I saw most of this happen back in the day. I still remember when Mike un-retired, must’ve sent shivers down the spines of all competing teams in the NBA as that was a huge day in sports history. Amazing footage, so many people involved. Smart move to have a film crew record everything from their final season. Answered a lot of questions for me as a basketball fan personally. Rare film making. P.S. from what I understand the lakers did the same thing the year Kobe retired. Might possibly see a Kobe & lakers documentary sometime down the road.

Underrated & Under-appreciated: 8.5/10 Though the main character, Shay Patrick Cormack, is a tad stereotyped, he’s still to be admired. Most likely few of you out there in the gaming world have ever experienced honest betrayal, let alone mis-perceived betrayal as Shay trades sides from assassin to Templar; facing off against the very people who trained and nurtured him. Sailing combat portions return from black flag, as well as all the familiar actions one would expect from the franchise, and though the multiplayer was left out, a lot of the mechanics you would find from it have been incorporated into the campaign, such as; assassins randomly hiding in bushes waiting for you to walk by so they can attempt to kill you. Story transitions right into the next game, Assassin’s Creed Unity; which happened to come out at the same time. We’ll leave this part out as it could spoil things for any potential late-comers. Looks good playing on an xbox one, pc or ps4. Will enjoy a nice graphic bump on newer machines, if you’re not playing the re-mastered version.
