New Assassin's Creed Screens

So here's a game that I am personally very excited for. Assassin's Creed for PS3 looks to be one of the most interesting and simply awesome games of the next generation. As you use stealth and forethought to carry out your assassinations, whatever you do will cause an appropriate reaction from the crowd through which you must invariably navigate. Running through a crowded market will push people out of the way and, in turn, draw quite a bit of attention to yourself. Climb a wall to escape a sticky situation, and you will stick out like a sore thumb - just as much as a person climbing the side of a building in real life.

Which brings me to the physical environment of the game world. In Assassin's Creed, your surroundings are designed so that the main character will be able to climb any surface that it would be plausible for him to scale. This is accomplished through Ubisoft Montreal's game engine, which marks as climbable any physical structure that protrudes at least 2 inches. Think Prince of Persia without limits...now let that sink in...just a moment more...ok...good, you understand.

Now, on to the intended purpose of this post, which is to show you just what Assassin's Creed looks like. Thanks to PlayFrance I can bestow upon you the following screens, as well as a few more over at their website. Enjoy!
