Trust me, I'm not trying to downplay the game or anything like that. I've been excitted for this game for quite a while now. But after hearing about it, it's making me wonder if I should plop down the 60 odd dollars to buy it, or just rent it. I mean, theoritically, there are only 6 main assasination quests, I doesn't sound to long, especially seeing how short an assasination and escape take in the videos. Sure the exploration will be nice, but is there enough replay value. I mean, should I just rent it for a weekend and have an amazing time, or does anyone know of extra features?

Also, do you guys plan on buying or renting?

Rent it but for me it's a buy. I'm going to play Assassins Creed more than once. I've been waiting for AGES.

I think I heard about a lot of available side quests (over 90 if I recollect correctly). I'm still on the fence whether to buy this game or not.

The main reason im buying it is because the main character is sweet, and I love the setting, plus the gameplay looks very refreshing after nothing but first person shooters.

This too. Eternal Sonata is the only NON-FPS game i've bought for 360 in the last 8 months...Darkness, Bioshock, Orange Box, Halo 3, Call of Duty 4(soon). And as you've said this game looks amazing.

I got that, I was just making a joke. A bad one obviously..

And I don´t live in California but in the Netherlands. Beats living on one of the most dangerous faults in the world IMO..

Having already played the game i'd say it's a rental. I keep saying that it had so much potential that just wasn't used in the end.

Rent it. If you really love it you could always buy it later.
