Warning:This review is rated M for Mature, as in for 18 and over. I suggest you turn back and check out other reviews on the sight. Oh, and reader discretion is advised.

Assassins Creed Brotherhood is the third game in the series. The game was released on the Xbox in North Amercia on November 16 2010, Australia on November 18 2010, Europe on November 19 2010, and in Japan on December 9, 2010.

The game left off where Assassins Creed 2 left off. Assassin Ezio Auditore Da Firenze continues his journey in Rome after the major attack on his Villa in Montergionni.

The game was also the first to start the Assassins Creed Multiplayer online.


So is this the true Assassin at his peak or is it just the lost Add-on for Assassins Creed 2?

Lets Find Out!

Story:
The story starts off from exactly where AC 2 left off. I am not going to spoil it for people who haven't played the game. Sum up, Desmond, he travels to the damaged Montergionni and hides from the Templar's in the sanctuary and goes into the Animus.

As for Ezio, he goes to Montergionni to relax and enjoy his health, thinking his battle's are done. Unfortunately, the next morning they are invaded by the Borgia's forces leading the army is Rodrigo Borgia.

Ezio quickly jumps into action, but gets injured in the fight and has to flee. He rides to Rome to confront Rodrigo, and cause a revolution.

The story is once again, perfect and enjoyable. All thought compared to Assassins Creed 2 it is short and with a professional gamer, the game can be completed in a matter of hours.

Gameplay:

Ezio calling down his Recuit Assassins.

The gameplay is pratecly the same with the exception of diffrent combat techniques. Now in combat you can use the quick kill, linking kill by kill to finish off the enemy, faster than before.

Since Ezio is a leader of the Assassins, you can recuits Apprentices which you can call anytime to help you in combat, (Like you need it).

There is also a new feature called Arrow Storm. This is unlocked by recuiting 6 Assassins. This allows you to call all of your Assassins to fire arrows at your opponents. Killing all of them in a matter of seconds.

The game is rather easy from what I said, with this new linking system. They just made it easier.

ArtStyle:
The artstyle of Assassins Creed is just like the previous, great and very renisance. Just the beauty of Rome and the fact that Rome was the peak of the Renesiance, it is just beautifal.

Music:

Jesper Kyed makes a return with music like "City of Rome," and other tracks. They really capture the essience of the Renesiance, very dark and mysterious ,just like a shadow creeping in the dark.

Multiplayer:

The multiplayer is a very unique twist and was not really that god with the amount of cheapness that the game had. The Multiplayer was still a experiment, and was a sucess to many. There are only a few modes you can play and you only level up to 50. They added new DLC eventually which only included new maps. The last DLc had almost everything which included characters, a map, and the story mission Da Vinci's Dissaperence. 

Final Verdict:
For one the game is good, nut just to easy and feels lke a add-on rather than a full game. The only thing that made this a game is the Multiplayer. If that were removed it is just a add-on to AC 2.
