    Default Assassin's Creed

    I (and im sure many of you) was expecting so much from this game, however the reviews seem to cast a few shadows on the game. Its too bad, really, that such a highly anticipated game messed up a little.

    Im still getting it, being as i already have it pre-ordered, so I hope for the best and that i find the game better than the reviewers.

    Don't get me wrong, the reviews weren't terrible by any means, they were just far lower than anticipated.

    Here's the reviews i watched if anybody is wondering:

    I don't care about reviews, my own judgement is all I need to know if a game is worth the money

    Never listen to reviews when it comes to games. If the game looks like something you'd be interested in, try it.

    Get a modded 360.

    Been out for 2-3 days now, and the people that've played it said it's good.

    IGN gave God Hand 3 points when it was released, so they're a bunch of idiots as far as I'm concerned.

    What I'm trying to say is... the same what Cookie and banned mentioned in their posts.

    Good to see you listen to my judgement too

    I'm sure it's gonna be a good game, in fact it's one of the 3 games I want to get for my PS3 this Xmas (I'm too busy getting games for my Wii now )

    Damn right!

    BOO HOO! FFX2 IS AWFUL, SAME AS OTHER SHIT GAMES THAT I HAPPEN TO LIKE.

    So yeah, if you play a demo and you like it, go on and buy it, reviews are just based on the likeness of the reviewer, still, I wouldn't be hired at a magazine or anything, coz me not lieks teh haloz.

    (I'm sorry, but...best game of the year? Halo 3? There are your reviews right there. >___>)

    But God Hand's only saving grace was that it was sorta funny at times.

    I've loved quite a few games which took a beating from reviewers, and the other way around... On topic, I'm not really hyped about AC... I'll have to play it.

    Take all reviews with a pinch of salt! if you know the reviewr (ie he works for a magazine that you have read for years and you have gotten to know his work) then yes you may feel that his judgment is sound. So instead of looking at the numbers (the score) read the synopsis find what the game is about, what you do and the mechanics.

    As for Assassins Creed I am just leaving to rob a liquor store so I can afford a PS3

    i think the game is way too easy. The concept is amazing, but the controls are way too simple.

    you can literally navigate by holding forward + R1 + X.

    To kill: hold R1 and hit square before they hit you.

    game complete.
