my father in law loves all the games in the series and says this is the best by far he is never off this game he totally loves it. roll on the next one...

I have always loved the fiction that Ubisoft created for the Assassin's Creed games. The war between Templer Knights and a brotherhood of assassins that has raged over the millennia within history's shadows is extremely compelling.

-Pirating at sea; -Huge but intricate world; -Incredible visuals; -Edward is a great character; -Hunting sharks is as cool as it sounds; -Love those sea shanys

-less options in combat; -a few free running hiccups

I am very happy with this game. The graphics are amazing and better than its earlier versions in most aspects. A little bit too much game play on the ocean but it goes along with the pirate theme so overall great game!

The overall game is as good as the rest of the Assassin's Creed series, but does little to improve itself over the previous editions. The game does a good job at balancing between the number of sneaking land missions and the aggressive sea missions.

Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag has little to do with assassins, but is the perfect direction for the Creed series. The pirate styling and naval setting are a perfect fit for the stealth meshed with free-running and pure combat.

+ An awesome world to explore; + Great balance of naval and land gameplay; + Searching for treasure; + A rewarding progressions system

- Forced stealth is rubbish; - Story loses its way a little

Excellent game with vibrant graphics.Playing as a pirate gives thrilling experience.Must play game. Bought it for 1200bucks

If you like assassins creed get it, if you are are not a fan and hoping they changed the game in some big way i would pass for now.

Plain and simple - assassins creed with ships and pirates; That can be good or bad depending on you

for me personaly it is just more of the same

The next generation of gaming..... As someone said in a description of this game. This game is nothing if not less than imaginative. Opening sequence: You are a pirate on a ship, floating around the ocean, you find yourself on an island and you have to do some hunting to find skins, then some...

I had to do a double take when looking in to the history of the Assassin's Creed series as a whole in advance of writing this review. With no less than fifteen games released in the six years since the first Assassin's Creed game a certain term inevitably comes to mind.

This game has kept me entertained for many hours. The game has many activities and I am still exploring and will give me many more hours of enjoyment. I highly recommend this game.
