I currently have AC 1, 2 Brotherhood and Revelations, and love the progression they make with each game. Each time they release a new game, more and more things are added to make your life even more fun whilst playing the game, and in AC Revelations, they are nailing it!

You play as Ezio Auditore, a skilled Assassin, roaming the cities using most things to be able to get around. You can swing from hanging lanterns, pull down scaffolding towers to block opponents, climb across rooftops, and perform a leap of faith from some of the highest buildings!

The majority of the game can be played from a more melee stance, using ranged weapons when you need to remain hidden. You can now call on your Assassins to come and help you in fights, if you get overwhelmed with enemies, at the push of a button you can step back and let your Assassins get to work whilst you skarper! You can also get them to perform an air strike, which is handy for when you are in hiding, and need to get past a group of guards without being seen (obviously don't hang around for too long afterwards!) You also have guns, throwing knives, bombs (stink bombs, splinter bombs) and much more!

There is so much more control when climbing up buildings too, as you now have a hookblade which you can use to jump up further to higher grab points on a building without falling to your death.

The visuals are amazing, great detail has been given to most aspects of this game. It is a game you could play for a long time, as there is always something hidden you didn't know about. It took me over a year of inconsistent gaming to finish it, and trust me, sometimes you need to google/youtube for a walk through! There are some parts, where you are on a main quest, where it begins to look a little like Tomb Raider...AKA you get stuck in a cave somewhere and cant figure out how to get out, but with AC you have to look around the whole room, as sometimes he has to climb in the most oddest of places!

If you've not played AC before, and are tempted by the description of the game, then I'd say get it. It will be one of the most enthralling, exiting games you have played in a long while!
