New PS5, PS4 Games This Week (17th April to 23rd April) Ok, maybe not that bad but, still pretty woeful. Not only is it compressed to hell (the game is only 500mb!), but it's also terrible. Boss fights break up the monotony, but there's not much else on offer here.īloodlines has some Playstation, SEGA Saturn era-voice acting going on. Rinse and repeat over different environments and you have your core campaign. You'll either infiltrate a building, kill some guards, assassinate someone, or tail an enemy - and that's pretty much your lot. The combat is well balanced and the experience is never frustrating.Īlthough not as repetitive as the original Assassin's Creed, Bloodlines relies on some pretty safe mission objectives over and over, making the game far too predictable. The game is not easy, but it's also not frustrating. Who wants to be frustrated while sitting on the train, playing through a game to pass the time? It's certainly not our cup of tea, and so, we think Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines is perfectly tuned. Most action games completely fail on the PSP, but despite being clunky, Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines is not one of them. The camera sticks quite well behind Altair, with free camera control handled by the face buttons while holding L. Sure, the lack of a second analogue stick can make it clunky landing a jump, or scaling a building, but, on the whole the game does a good job of keeping you in the action. Naturally, limitations of the hardware mean that buildings are largely boxy, plain affairs, and the draw distance is fairly short but it's still impressive.īelieve it or not, Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines controls pretty well. It really is a stunning achievement, just as the original Assassin's Creed was to next-generation consoles.
All the expected gameplay mechanics are present here - stealth, parkour, climbing, combat. It's a decent tale that fans of the franchise will love, but some poor voice-acting can make the story-telling a chore.īloodlines is essentially Assassin's Creed on the PSP, which is not a statement to be taken lightly.
