Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood reviews get rounded-up

brotherhood

Reviews are starting to go live for Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood, and we’ve got the list for you below.

It sounds like most folks are pretty impressed with the game so far, with Kotaku going so far as to call it “arguably the best one yet” in the franchise, and Eurogamer handing it a perfect score.

We sure had fun while playing it at PAX Prime back in September.

As usual, if you have any to add, do so in the comments section below.

The game’s out now on PS3 and Xbox 360 with the PC version to be released sometime next year.

Kotaku – No score
Guardian - 4/5
Joystiq - 4.5/5
Destructoid - 9.5
Eurogamer – 10
MTV – No score
1UP – A minus
FileFront – 93/100
GameInformer – 9.25
VideoGamer – 9
GameTrailers - 9
Gamespot – 8.5
IGN – 8.5
PSM3 – 92/100
GamesRadar – 9
Shack - No score
Xbox360achievements – 9.4
NowGamer – 9
VGD – No score (Single-player only)
JVN – 17/20
Gamer365 – 9
GamesVillage – 9.5
Eurogamer.se – 8
Eurogamer.de – 9
CVG – 9.2

Here’s some scores mainstream magazines have given the title as well:

ZOO 5/5
T3- 5/5
Nuts – 5/5
Front – 4/5
Loaded – 4/5
FHM – 4/5

In other news: I want to buy it but have no money, I WILL NOT put this on my LoveFilm queue. I loved the 2nd game far too much to rent it.

Damnit, I was supposed to stealthily avoid buying this game!

My platinum trophy in ACII will look good with one from ACB though…

I might play through the story of ACII again. After, if I feel compelled to want more, I may have to add this to my buy list on Friday.

Not really surprising, this is the only game, that couldn’t disappoint me. Still, I’ll have to wait until christmas to buy it :’(

Anyone know if there’s dungeons like in AC2?

I’m just worried with the whole thing being in Rome, the environments might get repetitive.

Eurogamer is a joke, a 10? Hahahahaahah…oh my. More of the same but now with MP, and then a 10? Wow.

Don’t get me wrong,there’s nothing wrong with more of the same cause AC2 was awesome, but come on…a 10? LMAO.

So according to Eurogamer – this is 2.5 times better than Mafia 2?

Eurogamer gave a 4/10 to the FIRST mafia, the PC version. So the real question is if this is 2.5 better than the first mafia.

And rightly so…game is awesome. And the multiplayer is a breath of fresh air. Guess what? it works too! Come back when you’ve actually played the game m’kay?

One more from VGD!

No score yet, as it’s just the single player we’re reviewing today, but I’d go with an 8 so far.
