Its incredibly easy you cannot die, if you try to kill yourself you are saved by your partner. Theyve learnt good things from Assassins Creed though, the wall climbing and what not is magnificent and the scenery is very nice to look at but the game itself isnt a challenge. Its nowhere near as good as the previous ones. I would suggest the ol Eb Games 7 day rent (get it price matched at JB for 79 incase you like it and want to keep it).

It may possibly be one of the most beautiful looking games ever made. It's worth playing just to admire the graphics in it. Gameplay wise, I don't think its better than the last generation of the game with sands of time etc etc. All fights are just one on one and few and far between. The game mechanics are very similar to assassins creed in terms of free running.

Its not very challenging though as said before. Fun for 2 or 3 days, then you get over it.

Yea thats what I was thinking too. Its too easy but in the previous game there was a few parts that would have forced the dalai lama into a swearing fit of rage. Does look amazing tho

its definately worth playing, but won't have any lasting appeal once you've finish it. i thought the new combat system was a nice touch, its good not to have to mash buttons constantly when fighting for once - very different to most hack and slash. (not that pop is really a hack and slash...)
bit lacking in any sort of difficulty, i think they've designed it so pretty much any fool could play it, which makes it loose some of its charm.
i found myself just doing stupid crap sometimes because i knew i could never die and that lack of concern for preserving your own life during all the acrobatic traversing of levels made it feel kind of empty.
its a pretty decent game though, better than i expected.
