GAME » Reviews
Assassin's Creed: Revelations is the fourth installment in the Assassin's Creed franchise and the final entry in Ezio Auditore's main storyline. A few levels also put players back in control of the original Assassin's Creed's Altair, and depict his rise to the Mentorship of the Crusades-era Brotherhood of Assassins.

"The laws of diminishing returns have started to affect Assassin’s Creed, and while Revelations doesn’t quite live up to the promise of its subtitle, there’s still plenty to like about what may be Ezio Auditore’s final adventure."

Formula Goes Stale

Ah formula. No one likes change. I'm keeping with the formula by reviewing this game a few months after I played it. This game follows formula by being close to the same damn game you've played the pr… Read more

Assassin’s Creed Revelations Review

Assassin’s Creed Revelations wraps up not one, but two eras of Assassin’s as it explores the final days of both Ezio Auditore and Altair Ibn La’Ahad. The zealous conclusion comes together quite nicely… Read more

Doesn't change the formula, but AC fans will still enjoy it

Good but Superfluous

Another year, another installment of Assassin's Creed. A series that has been released with solid titles in spite of the yearly grind of a new game. This game, however, was the first to really start t… Read more

Review: Assassin's Creed: Revelations

It’s weird to think that the first Assassin’s Creed came out in 2007. It seems like such an old and revered franchise, mainly because Ubisoft has been pumping annual sequels since Assassin’s Creed II… Read more

It's in Revelations People!

Revelations is the uninteresting rooftop after the steep, beautifully-animated ascents of the majestic cathedrals that were AC 2 and Brotherhood . Now that the free-running analogy is out of the way,… Read more

Ezio's final adventure turns out to be a satisfying one

As far as sequels go, Assassin's Creed: Revelations is the one that plays it safe, choosing to rely on your enjoyment of the previous games to get anything out of it rather than meaningful additions.… Read more

Incremental Improvement

I came into AC: Revelations knowing that the gameplay systems were largely unchanged from Brotherhood. With this in mind, I actually came away enjoying the game more than I expected. The game follows… Read more

As we watched Ezio age, so to has this franchise

Having a successful franchise is hard to maintain. After every hit installment, the development team is immediately tasked with topping the last with something bigger and better. The team behind Assas… Read more

Requiescat In Pace

Glockstar Armani presents this game with 3 *GLOCKIE* awards for: *BEST PROTAGONIST: EZIO AUDITORE* *BEST ORIGINAL SCORE: JESPER KYD* *BEST MOCAP ACTING: HAAZ SLEIMAN as PRINCE SULEIMAN* While this mig… Read more

A disappointing end to a promising start.

While AC:R is a competent game, several design choices such as implementing a poorly made Tower Defense mode is one that sticks out to me. The genuine excitement for the series keeps getting lower and… Read more

Assassin's Creed: Revelations

Let me start off by saying that I am a big fan of the Assassin’s Creed franchise. I love everything about the games, from the storyline to the gameplay mechanics to the characters I just feel that the… Read more

Very little gets revealed in Revelations

Let's get this out of the way at the start, Assassin's Creed: Revelations is filler, nothing significant happens in it that a fan of the series needs to see. However, that isn't to say that the game i… Read more

More of the same, but for now at least it's still fun enough.

When Brotherhood came out a year after Assassins Creed 2 I was skeptical that all story aside the game play would simply be a retread of that second game, but it managed to tweak enough to be a worthw… Read more

Assassin's Creed Revelations

I know there are many reviews highlighting the fact that this version is more of the same, but when something is this good I find more of the same not such a bad thing. I'm personally one for a quick… Read more

In Memoriam

It’s been quite a long journey for not only our protagonists, Altair and Ezio--but also for us, the players. While the series had a rocky start as a good idea plagued by missions of monotonous and min… Read more

Worthy End Cap to the Ezio Trilogy

I think this game is pretty inaccessible to anyone who hasn't played at least the previous two AC2 games, so this review is only for those players. Some people have concerns with annual releases of vi… Read more

Assassin's Creed: Revelations could have been better.

Revelations, simply put, is a good game that could have been better and it cannot go unnoticed that the formula is beginning to hit its creative walls. Revelations struggles with finding the right bal… Read more

A familiar, yet solid, conclusion to the Ezio Auditore trilogy.

Madden NFL. Call of Duty. Need for Speed. Like them or hate them, but video game publishers thrive on consistent, annual franchises. And their purpose is understandable—developers pump out these games… Read more

Good game, tired game play.

I have tried to write this review several times over, and each and every time something has not felt right about it. I came to realize that I was trying to hold Assassin's Creed: Revelations up to the… Read more

Assassin's Creed: Revelations

I honestly was less disappointed when I found out this game was going to star Ezio than I was when I learned the same about Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood . After all, with that game they had already e… Read more

Assassin's Creed: (No) Revelations

Over the relatively short amount of time that I have been back in the video game world (roughly a year and a half) I have played (to varying levels of completion) roughly 60 games. Two of my absolute… Read more

Most Things are Permitted

Assassin's Creed: Revelations feels smaller, somehow. You spend most of your time in Istanbul (maiden name: Constantinople) looking for some keys that Altair had hid around town generations earlier. A… Read more

Land of Plenty

You've grown with Ezio Auditore through the ages creating his own legacy past that of Altair into an old man with his own history. He's slower, more conservative with his movements but the grace he di… Read more

Arrivederci, Ezio Auditore da Firenze

Assassins Creed: Brotherhood was a genuine surprise last year, dismissing worries over its short development cycle by building on the solid foundations set by its excellent predecessor and providing a… Read more
