First Look: Assassin's Creed III - Drake's Reviews New Member!

Hello everyone reading Drake's Reviews my name is Rudy better known as Drunken Monkey. Drake has finals today, so in his absence I will be doing a first look on Assassin's Creed III. Today we have a first look at Assassin's Creed 3 even though it is the 5th game in the main AC series. For those who may not be aware there are a total of 10 AC games out there already and ACIII will be released on October 30th 2012 alongside AC: Liberation for the PS VITA.  AC3 encompasses they years 1753-1783 during the American Revolution. Aside from the giant leap from Istanbul where AC Revelations concluded to the Thirteen Colonies, we leave the Master Assassin Ezio behind and introduce a new Assassin by the name of Connor Kenway, who is of half English and half Mohawk descent. Like in the other AC games you will meet a vast assortment of historical figures such as George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, and Paul Revere. From the info that we have gathered we have learned that the game will introduce a new fighting mechanic which will allows Connor to use to multiple weapons at the same time as well as being able to use firearms. The most traditional of Assassin weapons in the series, the hidden blade will be used by Connor, but that will not be his main weapon, to keep a close tie to his Native American roots he wield a mighty Tomahawk that is shaped like the Assassin's logo. The graphics in the game are awe-inspiring, the gameplay demo and the in game CG movies look very realistic. Connor will also be able to hunt different animals and sell them to merchants. The will also be implementing a new property system. The multiplayer looks to be the same as previous games only new characters and yet the same old multiplayer game modes, which is the one negative aspect of the game, there is no innovation on the multiplayer system and it can get repetitive at times. Still no word if there will be a mobile or Facebook game that will tie into AC III like AC Legacy did for AC Brotherhood. I would highly recommend this game to everyone as previous entries have never disappointed with their storyline and gameplay, although as previously mentioned the Multiplayer can get repetitive.
