Cheap Kills

Thanks to the miracle of eBay and titles that didn’t meet with the critical reception people were expecting, I now have the game on the left, which is set in the crusades period.

It got average to somewhat good ratings, with most people citing the repetitiveness of the game as the chief weakness. All I know is you’ve got an Islamic assassin wandering around with an American accent when everyone else sounds either Arabic, British or French.

Gotta’ hand it to the art design team though, the environment is absolutely huge and gorgeous. It’s one of those games that lives up to the Next Generation reputation, but I can already see some weaknesses in the game design. Man, am I glad I got this used…
