The main story of Assassin's Creed takes place in September 2012; Desmond Miles, a bartender, is kidnapped by the company Abstergo Industries for use as a test subject in the "Animus", a device that can stimulate the recall of ancestral memories buried in the user's DNA. Abstergo intends to put Desmond in the device to recall the role of his ancestor, Altaïr Ibn La-Ahad (الطير ابن لا أحد, Arabic: "The Flying One, Son of None", "The Bird, Son of None", or "Bird of Prey, Son of None"), in the "Assassin Brotherhood" during 1191 as part of the Third Crusade in the Holy Land. Desmond at first has trouble adjusting to the device, but eventually is able to relive Altaïr's exploits over the next several days. Much of the core game is then presented from Altaïr's point-of-view as seen by Desmond, though at times interrupted by glitches resulting from the Animus.
This game is kick-ass. It's a game where you're a hooded awesome assassin in Jerusalem going around killing people with awesome moves like Jet Li's. This game is like the Matrix, only without the guns and the cool awesome black shades and suits. Instead, you're wearing white hooded robes and have knives to pierce the hearts and slash the throats of your enemies.
It's violent, but it's violent in an awesomely good way. Assassin's Creed is probably one of the best games they have in Xbox 360. I'm just wondering why the main character in the awesome games all have hoods on. It makes me want to think that if you have a hood on, you're immediately cool and have skillz that killz, you know?
