PS3, 360 - Assassin's Creed

At the Microsoft Conference on Monday, Ubisoft revealed the latest build of Assassin's Creed. This involved a walk-through of an assassination by none-other than the game producer, Jade Raymond.

The game itself looks amazing! Not only is the draw-distance incredible (get to the top of a building and you can see the whole city, even in the distance), as are the graphics, but the fact that if you see a vertical surface you can climb makes it even more so - you can put your fingers in the spaces between bricks. If there is something sticking out, or a wooden railing around the building, you can hang on to it and climb. EVERY surface is climbable.

Whilst there were a few bugs (most notable the floating body), the game looks brilliant, and more or less finished. It should be out on the 9th November.
