Assassin's Creed

[Lazybones]

Game play shown on the 360, so much for being a Ps3 exclusive, this game looks great.

The trailer looked great, but what really caught my eye was the story development log.  The idea of virtually walking through faithfully recreated streets of Jerusalem and Damascus nine hundred years makes the history geek in me want to weep with joy

The gameplay footage is really neat, the character has next to spiderman like climbing ability, yet he does it like those crazy free climbers do. You can see him grab hand holds around the structures, without it being the standard video game "you can climb this wall" type wall.

Read into "the crowd" if you want some more juicy info for this title.  The coles notes version is that "the crowd" has been given its own AI so that it reacts to the situation.  If your character lazily walks through the crowd they wont think nothing of it, but if you run through it people will dodge out of your way, or try to stop you, etc.  Sounds pretty good.  Looks like a nextgen "Thief"

I posted back on this during E3.  The hide-in-crowd seems like it may be a bit kewl to play with as well as a very Prince of Persia like play style.  There are some vids on Fileplanet worth checking out on this one as well.

They show this in the game play footage demo. You can blend in with friendly similarly dressed members of the crowed, as well as shove people around to move through them faster. Also it is a one shot kill  type universe, you need to be careful or you die easy.
