"There are few differences between the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions. PS3 owners are blessed with a slightly more solid frame rate, although the 360 version features a little more contrast in the lighting, so it's pretty much a wash."
--Kevin VanOrd, GameSpot
"Despite Assassin's Creed's smooth, almost deft controls and not infrequently gorgeous, gritty ancient urban settings, it is ultimately a game by rote, not salvaged by a compelling story and also burdened with a shell plot that is both trite and superfluous."
--Sanford May, Worth Playing
"So is Assassin's Creed as awesome as I wanted it to be? No. But it's a game that attempts a lot of major development moves and it shows a lot of promise, even if it isn't always executed well."
--Dana Jongewaard, GameTap
"Although Assassin's Creed isn't a bad game, it's certainly not the game we were hoping for and ultimately it comes as one of the year's biggest disappointments."
--Chris Leyton, Total Video Games
"Assassin’s” is terrific entertainment for perhaps the first couple hours, as you free-run frolic and notice sparkling little tweaks to generic third-person action."
--Ryan Pearson, Wham!Gaming
"It almost seems as if the humungous world they created and the idea that lies beneath the premise was too big to embrace; it was simply beyond current development possibilities. On the other hand, Ubisoft Montreal did come close, which means we end up with a great game."
--Ben Dutka, PSX Extreme
"Assassin's Creed falls short of perfection, but it's an excellent and highly entertaining game nonetheless..."
--Adam Rosenberg, UGO
"You'll truly get lost in the gorgeous settings and busy city scenes. The frame rate is fantastic and the only glitches you'll experience are those placed in the game on purpose, in order to maintain the specter of futuristic gloom."
--Jonathan Marx, Cheat Code Central
"It's ambitious and succeeds more than it fails, giving me hope that one day Ubisoft Montréal will deliver the game they originally set out to make."
--Tom Orry, VideoGamer
"Combat is either too easy or too hard, lacking the brilliance of a dedicated action title. And the free-roaming, bound as it is to mission objectives that would be fine in a more linear game, is just unsatisfying."
--Patrick Joynt, GameSpy
"The lengthy load times for levels (upwards of five minutes at some points) is forgivable considering that once in game you can run from one end of Jerusalem to the other and from depths of the darkest alley to the tip-top of the highest building."
--Hilary Goldstein, IGN
"From the sprawling city life to the dual-vision storyline, everything blends together to offer one of the most complete and satisfying experiences so far this year."
--Joshua Schwartzman, Gamer 2.0
