Assassin's Creed Revelations Review

But it does make shopping for my husband a litte easier, because we all know sometimes guys can be so hard to shop for. I can just get him a new video game and he's happy. But, even if you know they like video games, you never know which game to get. Video games can be pretty spendy and there's no way you want to spend that much money on a game unless you know they are going to like it!

All my boys just love watching daddy play this game. Mostly they like for him to climb tall buildings, like this -

And then they like him to jump off - 

I really have no idea why this appeals to them so much. But it really does! And as long as the guy lands in a flower bush or a pile of hay the guy doesn't die. Which makes no sense to me what-so-ever, must be a boy thing! Ha! 

So, after my husband played the game for about 10 hours straight, (Not even kidding!) I asked him how he liked it so far.... His reply? "It's good." Chatty he is not. Maybe I should have waited til he was done playing!

I really liked that the graphics are so real looking! There were a couple times I had to stop and watch because the background is pretty and real looking. Not like other games he plays where the background is just kinda blah. I also liked that even though there is fighting and killing - it's not that graphic. There is a little blood splatter, but not enough to bother me. So I let all the boys watch daddy play the game. (Ages 5 through 10.)



This is what my husband had to say about the game -

Although it is a continuation of a series you wouldn't neccassarily have to have played the other games to enjoy this one. But you would probaby want to! He enjoyed that the basic game play was the same as the previous games, but that they added new weapons and new tools to change things up a bit. The graphics are awesome! There is a lot to do - missions, tasks, storyline. Lots of stuff to do so that you will be playing for a long time. This isn't a game you will be done with in a few hours. (And us wives can decide if that's a good thing or not!) He hasn't heard any cursing yet, and the blood and violence is "mild". (But, of course, it depends on how you play the game. You could just walk around killing anything and everything. But he doesn't cause that isn't the point of the game.)
