I really wanted to buy but like you I am low on money so I saved my money for a game that has online mulitplayer so I can get the max replay value..... Assassins Creed is worth a buy but if your strapped then rent it and play the hell out of it for the week like I did......lol

I think its worth it. 90 on gamespot. Im about 1/4 way through it now, and the only thing I am griping about is the save game system. Its kinda crappy. Other than that, the story is good, the fighting, climbing, hoping around buildings are fantastic. Not to mention its about the prettiest console game I have played so far, at least to me

It's decently lengthy (15-20 hours) with plenty to do, but it's also repetitive and supposedly has no replay value.

Rent it.

If you don't buy it Jade Raymond will cry because that means she sold her soul to Satan for nothing to make this game.

this game SCREAMS rental. Mixed reviews, short length, little replay value. No way I recomend buying this game.

If your short on money I suggest rent, once you finish it there is not much to do afterward. It's still a great game.

epic rent, the missions are very repetitive after awhile. sites beside GS totally ripped on the AI.

at least when you rent you can still decide to buy. check gamerankings.

buy it, the replay would be just as fun as playing it through once.

Never gets old running up behind a guard and stabing them in the back.

They most certainly do exist. It is more a case that the good aspects of AC more than make up for them.

Dave Cheung has already done that and caused Ubisoft to take legal action. All because of his comic link

Seriously WTF was that? I would have taken legal action too if I was her, this goes well beyond anything that is even remotely acceptable or funny.

Buy it. I bought this game for $40 at Fry's, what a great deal! It's a good game even though it's lacking replay value. It took me couple of days to finish it but now I'm searching for all the flags which is a pain in the ass!

They certainly are. I've found all in the first City and 60 of the King Richard ones, though there are one of them I can't seem to get. It's on top of a pillar, that the jump from the highest spot won't let me reach :? I'll figure it out.
