Assassins Creed
 

I picked this game up last night, and even though I had been up for 33 hours prior to the purchase, I couldn't help but keep playing it for four hours until I REALLY had to sleep. This game is so much fun. The graphics are unbelievable, the story is fairly interesting (it definitely isn't what I thought it was going to be just from the previews), the fighting is pretty fun, etc.

Has anyone else picked this game up?

haha, I picked up this game today. It's still sitting wrapped on my desk right now.

After reading a review and seeing a video I had to buy it.

Glad to hear that your enjoying the game, and I can't wait to play it tomorrow.

Love this game. Got it on release day. Id been enjoying it so much it delayed my purchase of Mass Effect until today

I've been considering the game myself..... I know I eventually need more then 1 game for my 360 HAHA

I've been considering it as well. I broke down and bought a PS3 last month and have been playing a lot of DiRT and NCAA '08 (and of course the various Gran Turismo demos), but the allure of Assassin's Creed is starting to wear down my defenses and I think I'll be spending even more money on the infernal system within the next few weeks. The graphics and gameplay look like they're pretty entertaining, and from what I can tell the story does sound interesting, so we'll see what happens hehe.

I was looking at a PS3 the other day... and I don't think I'll buy it til GT5 comes out. I'm not much of a movie guy lately... so the high def thing isn't pounding my mind just yet.

About Assassin's Creed, one review stated its a 10 hour challenge, or up to 20 hours if you do all the side quests. Its unfortunate that games these days are so short... I'm still thinking about it, but I don't see much replay value in the game :(

10 Hours? No way...I've already played for at least 8 hours and I've only finished my second assassination...but I have been doing all the side quests as well. Even without the side quests though, I think this game is around 20 hours unless your goal is to set a new record finishing time.

I completely agree!

Although like Zot09 stated, it's going to be longer then 10-20hr experience, or at least that's the feel I got today when I started playing it.

...or u can consider buying PGR4, and challenge me online 8-)

oh you foul Temptress! HAHA I may go pick it up tonight then :(

^Let me know how things go.
