Reviews

• I think that a lot of Ubisoft games are a massive success Including Assassins Creed Brotherhood and the Prince of Persia series which both are very sophisticated and complex.

• The gameplay and graphics are featured in vast open worlds full of stuff to do and are never as simple as say Space Invaders where you just zap aliens in each round.
