Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines - Sony PSP

This game is one of the best games for psp I have played. I am just talking about the game in whole. But you pick it apart and look at the details....and it becomes a different story. Everyone complains about this but the game length is probably 5-8 hours. It depends on how you play it. I made the game last because I went out of my way for stealth. It doesn't get too boring doing the stealth because there is so many different ways to do it. Everyone says there is no element of stealth, but that is not true. You just have to look for it. The AI in ACB are messed up in the head. There can be two guards standing watch over an opening and you can assassinate one of them without being noticed at all. Sometimes they even look at you when you do it. The combat can get a little dull at times, but you just have to switch it up. Instead of using the sword all the time, try the throwing knife. Or if combat is just too easy and you think you are a complete master at it, then try fighting 6 guards with just your hidden blade. See how good you are then. Just switch it up and you will have fun again. Running around the streets is not very effective unless you want every guard in the whole city after you. Well, at least at the beginning. 3/4 of the way through and you can actually run around the streets most of the time. Sometimes the guards get mad and chase you, but not often. The graphics are stunning for a psp game. They look like a good ps2 game graphics. I am impressed by them. This game is great. I would recommend it to anyone that likes these kind of games. 5 out of 5

Love the game

I purchased this for my 15 year old son who has a PSP. In my sons words, this game does not deserve the M rating, as it is violent but there isn't a lot of blood. He thinks it should be rated T for Teen not M. The graphics are very good and the movement of Altair the Assassin is very fluid and smooth. The choice of weapons in the game are a sword, throwing knife, hidden blade, and a short blade. You can also use your fists to interrogate Templars. According to the Assassins Creed, you are not supposed to start fights or kill civilians, but you try to climb on rooftops and sneak around guards while trying to find Templar leaders. Overall, it is a fun game and my son would give a 4 our of 5 for lasting appeal.

I received a brand new copy, had a hard time not opening it lol

I have played Assassin's Creed on X-Box 360, but it is unfair to comapre this game to that one because of vast hardware differences and limitations so I will review this game based solely on its own merits. This is a fun game in its own rite. It is for the most part a sandbox style game. Meaning that you have a linear gamepath laid out in front of you but you have options as to when to continue. As you complete more in-game tasks you gain the ability to acquire more upgrades. I really like this game. The only issue that I have found so far is there are some clipping issues. Otherwise everything is smooth and fluid. I would lovve to see another Assassin's Creed on PSP.

This game was very fin and very addicting! Once I started playing, I could not put it down. I wasn't expecting it to be that great since it is a PSP game, but I was completely wrong. There is somewhat free roam just in the town which I had fun just walking around and messing with the soldiers. The only con with this game is that it is short. I probably beat this game in about 6-8 hours. However, the game was still extremely fun.

Purchased this as it was supposed to be the connection between Assassin's Creed and Assassin's Creed 2, but so far I'm not seeing it. I guess when I play the Assassin's Creed 2 (PC version) in March 2010 I'll see if it connects. Counter kills are pretty decent, but the soldier awareness is too over-rated! If you walk by a soldier they automatically draw their sword and if you keep standing beside them they attack. This makes it very annoying most of the time, but guess because it's for a hand held they needed to design it like that. Think they should have made MORE side missions. Assassin's Creed (PC) was very detailed in that category. Playing it for a second time now because it's such a great game! Bloodlines could have been WAY better! Can't wait for March to come so I can get Assassin's Creed 2! :-)

This game follows the story of Altair after he takes control of the Assassins' Order. It follows his journey around the Crusades and shares a lot more of his history. GAME REVIEW: The graphics are pretty good for a PSP game. Works just like all other AC games: running, fighting and freerunning. Be aware that the maps are a bit smaller so you might be a bit frustrated when it comes to freerunning as Altair may be a bit harder to control. SHIPPING REVIEW: Came exceptionally early, I wasn't even expecting it. No marks, dents, breaks or scratches anywhere to be seen. Game UMD is in perfect condition. Overall, 5/5
