Should we look to the past and learn from this six year old game? I certainly think so. Replaying Assassin's Creed for this review reminded me of just how much I enjoyed it when I first played it. Sure it has some rough patches and somewhat dated graphics, but this game is still excellent and deserves a place in our libraries. I would easily recommend this game to anyone who has been caught up in the marketing for the upcoming Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag as well as to anyone looking for a good, story-driven action game. It is a straightforward experience that you can play your own way and on your own schedule. Go ahead and take a trip to the past.
