[Inspector Abberline]

Assassin's Creed Syndicate
Although I had just bought Assassin's Creed Unity,the price drop on Syndicate was to good to miss,at the moment both Asda and Argos have it for £25 same goes for the Amazon. While not drastically changing the gameplay,plenty of jumping around,and plenty of violence if your so in the mood.The graphics definitely seem to be a major improvement, saying that I had no real problem with Unity apart from a couple of glitches which after a couple of patches seem to have gone. Assassin's Creed Syndicate takes us to jolly old England,in fact its 1868 Victorian London,although its London via the steam punk look as if directed by Guy Ritchie,and not Oliver Twist or Dick Van Dyke dancing on your roof singing Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious,because if he was on the roof im sure someone would of gone up there and stabbed him. The two main character's you control are twins Jacob and Evie Frye,you basically switch between the two during different missions.The fighting system has much improved and seems to more intuitive and definitely more effective when taking on more than one opponent. There's still all the stuff about the Helix etc but is anyone really interested in that part of the game? What we have is much more improved version of the game,the scenes of Victorian London as you perch on your ledge looking across the skyline has always been pretty impressive in these games but none more so here,the game makers eye for detail is at times astonishing. The actual gameplay hasn't changed that much if at all,you know the score you jump around meeting different individuals,whether its the main mission or side mission objectives,plus you get to free roam around London. I have some concerns about the enemies AI but its still early days,so we will see how the game progress.There also some pretty cool download missions available including Darwin and Dickens Conspiracy and also Jack the Ripper,which I assume means you can go all From Hell,and put on your mockney cockney accents and solve the Whitechapel murders,you even get to meet Inspector Frederick Abberline. If your a fan of the series then you pretty much know what to expect and this is definitely worth a punt.
