Video Game Review: Assassin’s Creed III

Everything runs smoothly on the control front… until the time comes to sprint with precision. It’s during the game’s chase sequences that its shortcomings being painfully obvious.

In practice it feels like a work in progress. Unmanned units are largely impotent and splitting your forces never works.
