i played this game over at a friends house on his xbox 360 (and a great HD 50+in screen). this is the most amazing game i have ever seen. it's so interactive. it is literally like watching a movie...and it's never the same. its historically accurate. it's so freaking fun. i played it for like...4 hours. my friend has beat the game, but enjoys watching his friends play it for the first time (me) 'cause its still all new for him. if you have 8 mins and like video games, watch this clip.

That looks cool.
Richard the Lionheart sounds like Triumph the insult comic dog.

I liked it for around 5-6 hours then the gameplay got too repetitious and the combat system wasn't so hot.
Beautiful game and the player controls so well. I'm hoping the gameplay is improved in the sequel and the combat mechanics get revamped. I loved exploring the cities.

I disliked it for the same reasons you stated. It felt like the fighting was just pumping buttons and got old after awhile. It doesn't help that I am not a big fan of stealth games. It definitely looked good, though.

Even the wall climbing got old when I had to keep climbing the same exact view points.
Fun game in the end though, overall B.

yeah, I forgot about that. I was really enjoying climbing the tallest towers until I realized I was climbing the same towers over and over again just placed differently on the map. I can appreciate that they had a lot of space to fill, but it got old. Jumping from rooftop to rooftop was endlessly fun for me, though.
