I got rogue together with an 4,and played them in order.As much as I enjoyed black flag,rogue felt more alive,It had more colors and more variation.You had New York,a dense city full of houses for you to climb on (ac 4 had Nassau,Kingston and another one that I can't remember,but they didn't feel...alive,and I never wanted to stay in them too much).You had the arctic region,full of glaciers and man'o'war's,and then you had the forests full of different types of animals.Black flag had forests too but they were more restrictive.The story,although short was interesting,seeing an assassins joining the Templars was something new,and I wish they explored that bit more.I can't wait to get the game on the ps4,i want to see how the game will look different from how it looks on the ps3,and maybe,just maybe we will be able to toggle the hood on/off
