Aim of the Game
You are a pirate assassin who has the whole open world to explore with many possible places to visit. In total there are over 50 locations and places to go to in this open world, action, stealth game. You are told to kill people or bring something back or destroy a ship with your Jackdaw ship that you are captain of. Of course there are upgrades for that too. Basicily your a pirate assassin doing what your told or the complete opposite. 


Graphics
The graphics are amazing. Lots of detail and great lighting to really make the game feel as realistic as possible. If you want to see what the graphics are really like compared to other systems please go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTiD9-Ma5HE.
I give Assassins Creed 4 Black Flag's graphics a massive 8.5.

Gameplay
Assassins Creed 4 Black Flag is all about pirates and ship sailing with over 50 locations and multiple side missions and fights to keep you going for hours. Underwater ship wrecks, view points and assassins contracts. Also many fights keep you at the edge of your seat at every epic moment.  

The multiplayer in this game is very fun. There are 2 categories of multiplayer. One is a free for all and the other is a team where you battle it out in teams so teamwork is necessary. One game type in the team multi-player of Assassins Creed 4 multiplayer is Artifact Assault.  In Artifact Assault you have to go into the other team's territory and steal an artifact and take it back to your territory whilst defending it to stop them stealing your artifacts.
There are many more games to play on multi-player with your friend or with anyone. Artifact Assault is just one of the amazing games in Assassins Creed 4 Black Flag

Also there are perks that give you an advantage for the whole game that are hard to detect to give you an advantage over your opponents. The next part of multiplayer is the big range of abilities that are available to choose from once you reach the required levels. These abilities give you a shorter ability that has a cooldown so you can only use it a limited amount of times. However these can be visible to your opponents so use these wisely or you will be caught easily.

Customisation of your character is very detailed allowing you to change your clothes, facial details, signs, tattoos, weapons and lots of other little things that make the 4th Assassins Creed the most customisable game of the series.

You can even make your own games with the Game Lab that allows you to create your own custom games to play on multi-player with. Believe it or not there are over 200 different elements to create your own custom matches to give you huge variety.

The gameplay for Assassins Creed 4 Black Flag has a huge variety and lots of detail to prevent you from dying of boredom.

I give Assassins Creed 4 Black Flag's gameplay a nearly perfect 9.8.

Fun Rating
I found the game very fun as you sneak around to make your next kill without anyone knowing or you risk creating a huge fight where all the victim's friends attack you forcing you to kill them as well. Sometimes it is a very tense and exhilarating experience that will keep you playing for hours without rest.

I give Assassin's Creed 4 Black Flag's fun rating a 9.

Difficulty
There are no difficulty settings in the game so if you find it too easy there is no way to change that without using the weakest weapons and to not upgrade your ship. Another way if you are playing the PC version is to download the mod at http://www.mediafire.com/download/o82.... You could also take a look at the YouTube video talking you through what this mod does and how to download it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYMDz1DT-YU. Some people find the difficulty of the gam to easy but other find it alright and very good.

On consoles I give Assassin's Creed 4 Black Flag's difficulty a 6.
On the PC I give Assassin's Creed 4 Black Flag's difficulty an 8.

Sounds
The sounds are very clear and exciting as you play through the game. I found most of the sounds quite realistic to make you feel that you are in the game. Swords clashing, pirates shouting, waves crashing, cannons firing, are just some of the amazing sounds there is in Assassin's Creed 4 Black Flag. Official theme song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b27Gw1QxP0g. Full gameplay http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICemupWG56U. Gameplay without commentary http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZzOmVJmMBs.

Conclusion
Overall this game is EPIC with things to do at every minute and lots of intense gameplay and multiplayer online content to keep you entertained and amused. With great everything. It sells well because it is so good. This is by far the best game of the genre. 

Overall I give Assassin's Creed 4 an 8.7.
