You're right Scrappy. No other multiplayer game in the world has a level based perk unlocking system, customizable player load outs, and has a individual "free for all" and unity "team" based objectives of killing other player/s who have similar skills or features.

Assassin's creed multiplayer is ok, but it always ended up just everyone hauling ass around the whole time eventually. I wish they could have adjusted it to where the arrow pointing to right where your target is was unnecessary.

Thank ya Logan, and i agree with ya that Batman is the best.
I'm arguing that Assassin's Creed isn't ground breaking. It's different sure, but not ground breaking. Hitman was doing the assassin stuff way before and prince of persia had first dibs on climbing structures. I just wish Scrappy would admit that. Do I think Batman was original, hell no. Zorro, the green hornet, and the scarlet pimpernel came before Batman. Assassin's Creed hasn't changed anything in the gaming world. We're not seeing knockoffs or revelations because of it. Scrappy's just got to get over this butt love for that series.

Multiplayer included. Its the same as Halo's free for all, oddball, or vip. It's just sprinkling none playable characters into the map. It's, at best, a different perspective on an already used formula. Individual player scores not based entirely on your kills isn't new either. Neither the story nor the multiplayer (introduced 3 maybe even more games ago) aren't game changers. Different, i can give em that. However there is no way it would be on a list of game changing video games. It's just a fact.

now you're asking a different question. "game changer" implies an implication for the future. do i think AC MP is a "game changer?" not really because it fits a particular genre of game which wouldn't be utilized in a MP setting very often. but i think its ground breaking because never before has a 3rd person stealth setting in a simulated "real world" environment using NPCs been done before. when they first announced that brotherhood would have MP i was like "are you kidding me? how the fuck would they do that? its gonna be stupid." but they did it and did it extremely well. does it get stale quickly and do people ruin it by running around like morons? yeah. but the concept of it is amazing and ground breaking in my opinion.
likewise, a game can be a "game changer" and not be terribly ground breaking. i think the first halo is a good example of this. as a 1st person shooter it evolved the genre to show what can be done on a console and in that regard "changed the game" for the genre. but it wasnt terribly ground breaking as far as doing anything new. just developed ideas that already existed.
but anyway it doesnt matter. there's no arguing with someone who says AC's wanted is the same as Halo's VIP.

They really do make some awful decisions. Like their delaying of Rayman Legends on the Wii U to September, even though the game is COMPLETED. Just so they can release it with the 360 and PS3 ports. So now instead of releasing during February with essentially no competition, it's going to release alongside GTA V. NICE ONE UBI.
