Dave Yes, yes, YES! Ubisoft have yet again proved an ability to do that which so many other developers fail at: listen to what the fans want, and deliver it in spades. Ezio Auditore and Desmond are back, in a continuation of the excellent Assassins C...

Ubisoft's third stab at the assassination genre is just as sleek and razor-sharp as ever. The addition of a multiplayer mode is also bloody good fun. Simply put, Ubisoft Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood is killer...

When it was first announced, Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood sounded dangerously like glorified downloadable content for its predecessor. But what Ubisoft Montreal offers is the most refined experience in the series so far...
The city of Rome is carefully crafted and packed with options and activities. Mini-games and management systems feed into one another elegantly, drawing the player in. Multiplayer is a refreshing experience.
Ezio doesn't grow as a character, making him little more than a husk for the player to occupy. Rome occasionally lacks variety. Horses in cities are nothing but an annoyance. Their poor animation doesn’t warrant sustained inspection, either.

Gamers can be a self-satisfied bunch sometimes. And before the accusations begin to fly, we don’t say that from the elevated safety of our high horse, but through fatigue brought on by the endless conversations as to what does or doesn’t constitute a ‘...

Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood is an exceptional title, easily my favorite PS3 game of 2010, and a strong contender for Game of the Year in some gaming circles. After playing through the twenty or so hours of the single player campaign, clocking se...

Even before its release, Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood was the victim of utter scrutinization. Many knew the premise, but most wondered if the ideas present weren't more than fancy add-on content. Multi-player they said. You don't need to make an entir...

One of my favorite games of 2009, perhaps actually my favorite game of last year, is Assassin's Creed II. The story of Ezio Auditore da Firenze and his adventures in Italy during the Renaissance is a hugely compelling tale (much more so than the frami...

The Assassin Creed franchise has been a favorite of the GamePro staff from the very beginning. However, we had some misgivings about Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood due to its relatively short development cycle. Releasing just a short year after the seco...
Excellent and exciting campaign that introduces worthwhile new gameplay elements; Rome is well built and packed with content; online multiplayer mode is incredibly taut and a smashing addition.
Leaves a lot of lingering questions unanswered; some texture popin issues and occasional odd animations.

The ladies of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood have both bark and bite. If you played Assassin's Creed II, then you already know Caterina Sforza, the comely Italian countess with a soft spot for sly, rugged assassins. She's not the only female character w...
Huge, beautiful city stuffed with amazing details, Lairs and other platforming sequences are fantastic, Long, with lots of fun and varied activities, Economy is more meaningful than before, All sorts of improvements, big and small.
Main story is disappointing, Assassin recruitment is contrived and ultimately meaningless, Glitches.

Assassin's Creed II is definitely one of my favourite games of the last 12 months. It was a meaty gaming meal that took several steps towards fulfilling the promise of the original, with new mechanics, more variety in gameplay, and an alluring new sett...
Brotherhood is a great game, but it’s hard to wholeheartedly recommend. This is really a title designed for fans of Assassin’s Creed II, as it’s a continuation of that story, but the reality is that people who finished that game want something new – or...

Every time I mention Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood to my gaming friends, I get the same question: "So, is it a proper sequel, or just an expansion, or what?" At first, I wasn't sure myself. After all, this is a game that unfolds directly after the even...
Strong continuing story; an insane amount of collectibles; greatly improved combat; intense (and fun!) multiplayer.
Rome looks a lot like the rest of Italy; multiplayer has a definite learning curve; cliffhanger endings drive me nuts.
