Assassins Creed is such an overrated piece of sh** it would make Halo 3 proud. The only way I believe the game got any good reviews at all was because Ubisoft paid off the reviewers. BTW, Gamespot gave it a 9............. I rest my case.

Stop dissing assasins creed it got great story line. It just was abit to repedative if only they had done somthing more with it that had taken you on an adventure . doing deeper research by going undercover into groups and such rather thne just get information out fo 3 random people then go to the assasination. if the game play was more of a journy and told some of the story line then jsut making the entire story cut scenes/uninterative speaking scenes. the story of this game probably could have been pretty much understood jsut by watching the talking scenes .
BUT LOL AT *pulls out sword to scare off a begger* random says "OHO I have a MUCH larger sword then that"

first off...
1. Assassins Creed should be rented... its a great looking game but its too story drivin ( which is the part i liked: mystery religions and what not...) i'd say the repetition of everything that was needed before assasinating every man on your list, that is what bore me to death. the game finally got good at the end yet i am livid at the fact that he cant climb trees and the controls feel way too stiff.
2. Uncharted is a must buy!! no need for comment
3.Unreal also a must! yep.
4. Rachet and Clank should be rented because of the no online multiplayer feature but if you are a fan of the Rachet and Clank Series then i say its a must buy!
5.COD4 is freakin' awesome not perfect but awesome i would say it all depends on how much you like FPS.
6. Rock Band...is weak...innovative but weak..
7.Sing Star...good for drunkin' karaoke with friends...
