Re: assassin\'s Creed
Sorry to hijack, but how likely are you to be able to get a game within a few days of launch?

Re: assassin\'s Creed
Reviews have been trickling and they look good on both systems. The ones I saw were 4.9/5, 5/5, 4.5/5, 9.5/10 for both systems.
Does anyone know how long this game is? I don't want to drop $60 for a 10 hr single player game... RE: getting a game for launch Pretty likely if you go to the right places. Go to places w/ lots of stock, but not necessarily for games, I would check Target, K-Mart, Wal-Mart and Toys r Us to start.

Re: assassin\'s Creed
Opinions seem to be all over the place with Assassins Creed. It got raving previews but I've also read some dissapointing ones. And most of the very few reviews so far are glowing. But 1up has only given it 7/10.
I'll wait a bit and see how things go. I'm not exactly starving for new games at the moment either...

[/ QUOTE ] My personal favorite was a video review at gametrailers. They thought the combat was boring, every assassination was the same, and it was really repetitive. Yet, they still gave it a 9.1. Coupled with the mediocre impressions from people who actually own the game, and unless the tone really changes, this game just looks ridiculously overhyped.

Re: assassin\'s Creed
any game about an assasin or a ninja is always overhyped by video game dorks because the find those two character types so cool.

Re: assassin\'s Creed
Every review seems to be like: "It's a great game. The combat and gameplay does get repetitious with some pretty dumb enemies and you can just run away from everything if you want. Oh, and stealth which the game is supposed to be built around is pretty much useless. But it's a great game. 9/10."
I don't really get that. And I won't be getting this.

Re: assassin\'s Creed
Oh okay. More reviews are coming.
IGN video review: one of the top 5 most disappointing games of all time 7/10 from gamespy 7/10 from eurogamer And those 7/10 seem high given what they say. The Eurogamer review basically concludes it's like Crackdown but worse in every single way. Yeah, I can definitely pass.
