I'm actually pretty excited about this game after watching the trailer and gameplay promo.
I've yet to play and complete Assassins creed, so I'm not sure if its at all like this game, but to me, it kinda felt a bit like Heavy Rain, which I loved playing. Really great game.
I like how they've remade Lara Croft as well. I only played the second tomb raider game for pc, and found it irritating, her particularly. The feminist side of me really detested their portrayal of women, let alone a lead female role. I was probably only 11 at the time too.
From the little bit of Lara I saw, I think they've completely redone her. Maybe they have females working on her personality or something!
I'll definitely keep my eyes on this game.
