Personally, I like Ubi despite their faults. While their games usually have issues, every so often they create a game that pushes the envelope in one way or another. In the first Splinter Cell, it was their excellent third person control system that put other stealth games like MGS to shame. The controls were fluid, easy to use, and made sense within minutes.
In Assassin's Creed, they did it again. While the game is far from perfect (repetitive, glitchy), the controls and world immersion is unrivaled in any other game I have seen. Frankly, I'm really enjoying the game though it hasn't received much playing time since Rock Band and Mass Effect hit. I'm looking forward to going further in the game and exploring new areas. Overall, it's far from being a bad game and touches greatness at points, only to later get in its own way through repetitive missions and clipping issues.
They also make several other series that I enjoy, namely the PoP, R6, and GRAW series. I would like to see a new Rayman platformer some day, too. Overall, I prefer the company over several other Japanese companies I used to adore, namely Konami and Square-Enix. Ubi, while not at the level of Capcom in my eyes, can hardly be compared to EA, the whore of repetitive games, lack of game support, and flogging franchises for all they are worth.
