We guess the video above could be considered a spoiler due to it being eight minutes of gameplay footage, but holy wow is it good times and we just had to share it with you. Embedded above and viewable much larger after the break is Assassin's Creed Montferrat Walkthrough gameplay footage and well ... what more can we say other than "wow"? Seriously, if you're willing to give it a look then prepare to fall in love with this game. We're under Assassin's Creed's spell and are liking it.

I don't like how only one enemy will attack at once. Other wise it looks great.

Woah.....well I can see that any birthday money I get isn't going to last 3 seconds with all the games coming out at that time.

Wow, now this looks like fun! i know what you mean RL3AO - I've heard other people say the same thing, but I think it fits in wiwth the idea of you as a feared assasin and the gameplay seems to be quick enough that it isn't horribly obvious that you are in constat single battle. This is a must have for me!

Looks great. Seems like it will take some trial and error to figure out how to escape. Other than that everything looks really good.

It's definitely starting to look better..I was also a little weary when it was shown at E3.

I only have a couple problems with it - the enemies don't attack Altair. They wait for him to finish off all his friends. Also, Altair can walk through a crowd of people, and Crusaders, but the instant he's spotted by an enemy when it's not during a cinema, they INSTANTLY REALIZE he's an assassin.

They are much better at delivering video than IGN's puny attempts.

Yeah? Fuck your idiosyncrocies too.
This game looks really incredible and I now absolutely must have it. This might actually have just moved up my priorities list above Mass Effect.

WoW! This looks visually amazing.
I wonder how it plays? I guess I'll have to buy it to find out.

Mitch your wrong. Were you watching. The guards didn't attack him instantly.

I hope that they're still working on it. That group AI we've heard so much about is really not looking that good. Despite the numbers, it appears that only one enemy will attack Altair at a time. I was looking forward to getting this one and now, not so much. It looks really good though, if way too easy.

Neeko: I think it has 3 large cities. And yeah, it does look great. I was'nt 100% sure i would get this, but this vid certainly convinced me.

At 4:05 on the video you can see that this game suffers the same "Dead man shake" as Bioshock. Not a big deal but I hope they fix it.

Some lack of interactions with environments, and some crazy unrealistic knife throwing. The enemies seem sort of stupid, but the graphics are nice. The game should be cool overall.

Let's be honest folks... this game is pure eye candy with no substance.
My 5 year old could have taken out that group of guards bare-handed!!!
Play Oblivion and see how REAL enemy's should react when there's a fight.
If this was an online game - it might give me some reason to drop $70 on it...

In the walkthrough I did notice a few flaws. First when the guy comes into the courtyard on the horse and leaves, I did notice his cape looked like a cardboard sheet at the bottom (very straight for a person in motion), and it didnot "flow" smooth like the flags the two riders in front of him are holding. Second, as our assassin walks through the crowd, he shifts his body to the side when passing, but notice when the people pass him fron behind, he makes the same movement. Looks a little weird for a game that has everything on point!! People it's the little things that make a game good, so fix em guys!!!

[Foam at the mouth] That was awesome! I NEED a 360 so bad. I'm still playing SSB for blood's sake!
And on a somewhat related note, I need you guys to help me out on this. Of all people you guys know this works. Just do the Free Postage offer, it's the most popular and it cost nothing. C'mon I need this 360.

This is meh. See Drake's Fortune video, but be sure to watch this one first. If not you're setting yourself up for failure...
