Finally got some time to give it a play. Here are some of my impressions.

-Phenomenal graphics, the character models are stunning, some of the textures are equally shocking. Sadly no 480P.

-The controls are decent- The QT events work really well, though it is irritating that aiming is done with the C-stick. What Wii specific controls they did use work quite well, including the sword fighting.

-The game itself is quite accessible without being "All-Play", I don't think fans of the other entries will be disappointed, but I do think it will invite in new people.

-The side quests are actually fun, and don't seem like a cheap way lengthen the game, they are also nice because most are 5min or less which allows a pick-up and play experience.

-The story is good so far, though I have only cleared about 20% of the game at most.

If I had to rate it I would give it something in the mid 8's. Pretty much a must buy game if you like the others or stealth adventures of any type.

Thanks for those impressions. You earned yourself a high-five.
