Though delayed, Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood shines on the PC. Brotherhood adds a rich new chapter to the tale of the war between the Templars and the Assassins. Plus, according to our reviewer Andrew Hayward, the new multiplayer modes are an absolute...

Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood is an excellent addition to the Assassin’s Creed bloodline, focusing more on improved game mechanics and a bit less on the epic, over-arching storyline and instead ends with the perfect setup for Assassin’s Creed 3.For fan...
For what looked like a cheap cash in that could have been served up as DLC, Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood is every bit as polished and full featured as its predecessor. If you liked the previous entry there is absolutely no reason not to play this game...

Just barely over one year ago, Assassin’s Creed II hit store shelves and made a huge impact on the gaming world. Taking the series from a fledgling IP with some interesting but flawed concepts to a true AAA title, it solidified the Assassin’s Creed ser...

It’s been quite a journey to get to this review. Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood is the third installment in the Ubisoft’s signature franchise, yet it lacks that numeric distinction, a hint that this is more of a 2.5 release, a continuation of the exploi...

Despite playing through both of the first two Assassin's Creed games, I wouldn't call myself a huge fan. While I respect what Ubisoft is trying to do, I had a hard time falling into love with some of its annoying quirks. Thanks to the emphasis on a n...

Surprised by the quick reveal of a new Assassins Creed title so soon after last years successful sequel, many dismissed Brotherhood as a lightweight expansion disguised as a full-on follow-up in the blade-baring series. While this direct continuat...

Brotherhood begins precisely where the last game ended, with Ezio defeating the pope and hearing Minerva’s message to Desmond. After a brief transition, Ezio’s home in Monterigonni comes under attack and he is forced to relocate to Rome, where he plan...

By now it’s a safe bet that if you’re interested in Assassin’s Creed, you’ve already played one of the others. So this review won’t go into detail on all the nuances of the series but will talk mostly about the new additions to the game play, things li...

The Assassin's Creed series is very much like marmite; you either love it or you hate it. While the series has had a somewhat rocky start with mixed reviews across the board for both the original and the sequel, things are about to change. While some o...
Vastly improved gameplay, sidemissions, AI and combat mechanics.
Main story provides more unanswered questions than an episode of Lost.

The third chapter in Ubisoft’s series has arrived with a pair of bloody knives in its hands. Instead of jumping forward a few hundred years as the change from the first to second game, Brotherhood starts right near the end of . The developers made a h...
Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood is a wonderful gaming experience, even if it doesn’t do much to separate itself from its predecessor. There is an astounding amount of stuff to see and do and an incredible sense of history. You can approach the game as if...

Ezio Auditore da Firenze is crouched on a roof-edge, watching his prey pass by just below through a bustling 16th century street, who is completely unaware of the fate prepared for him. Now, if this were Assassin's Creed 2, Ezio would be springing from...

Assassin's Creed II was always going to be a tough act to follow and with rumours flying left, right and centre about where the franchise will head next, the invitation to spend more time in Renaissance Italy with Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood is a wel...

The ladies of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood have both bark and bite. If you played Assassin's Creed II, then you already know Caterina Sforza, the comely Italian countess with a soft spot for sly, rugged assassins. She's not the only female character w...
Huge, beautiful city stuffed with amazing details, Lairs and other platforming sequences are fantastic, Long, with lots of fun and varied activities, Economy is more meaningful than before, All sorts of improvements, big and small.
Main story is disappointing, Assassin recruitment is contrived and ultimately meaningless, Glitches.
Ezio's Roman holiday is a joyous and gorgeous addition to a quality series...

Assassin's Creed II is definitely one of my favourite games of the last 12 months. It was a meaty gaming meal that took several steps towards fulfilling the promise of the original, with new mechanics, more variety in gameplay, and an alluring new sett...
Brotherhood is a great game, but it’s hard to wholeheartedly recommend. This is really a title designed for fans of Assassin’s Creed II, as it’s a continuation of that story, but the reality is that people who finished that game want something new – or...

Every time I mention Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood to my gaming friends, I get the same question: "So, is it a proper sequel, or just an expansion, or what?" At first, I wasn't sure myself. After all, this is a game that unfolds directly after the even...
Strong continuing story; an insane amount of collectibles; greatly improved combat; intense (and fun!) multiplayer.
Rome looks a lot like the rest of Italy; multiplayer has a definite learning curve; cliffhanger endings drive me nuts.

Assassin’s Creed II suffered no shortage of ‘wow’ factor, though it’s difficult to really describe the end of the game as anything but ‘wtf,’ to quote Desmond. Not that the ending was bad, mind you, just utterly unexpected. The story opens with a quick...

There was a brief period back in 2007 when the marketing of Assassin's Creed was pretty much being sustained by wheeling producer Jade Raymond onto a stage and having her say something about wall textures. In a sense you could say the game has come int...

Let’s deal with the elephant in the room right now: Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood isn’t a quick cash-in on last year’s massively successful and (mostly) critically-acclaimed sequel. It’s not a full-blown sequel, either; this isn’t Assassin’s Creed 3...
