I've never played this game. I've heard it's decent with a cliffhanger ending, and not worth the original $60. I found it new for $25. Should I pick it up? I never buy a game without getting a few outside opinions.

The game is so good that they could still sell it for around 40 dollars and people would definitely still pay for it. It's a very good game. It still looks better than many games that have come out in the years since its release.The gameplay was mostly amazing and still holds up today.

That's one of the most repetitive games I have played on the 360. I really don't understand why so many people like it. I still can't finish it because of the repetition. But with all that said, if you're into games like that $25 is a great price. There are plenty of other games I would spend my money on.

The game is so good that they could still sell it for around 40 dollars and people would definitely still pay for it.

I would have been very angry if I would've paid $40 on such a repetitious game

I paid full price for it and it meant no problem for me, awesome game! (60 €)

Repetitive games are alright if the action you're repeating is somewhat fun. Is this the case with Assassin's Creed? Also, why is it repetitive?

its a great game but not without some flaws, namely it gets repetitive after a while, if you wanna get Assassins Creed 2 id get this so ya know what going on with the story, all it all well worth $25

I was just stating my opinion and preference. I know a lot of people like the game, but I just can't. You literally do the same things over and over and over again. Then you have to travel for what seems like 50 miles to get to a new area. That is what really killed it for me.

You do the same thing in every "level" of the game, go to an area in one of the major cities and complete a serie of missions, these missions are always the same. After you complete them you are able to kill your main target, escape and do the same in another city.

It is repetitive, but for me it was great fun.

No high replay value though.

id wait for the new one, more weapons instead of stealth shanking every one, if you never played it well...you didn't miss much Infidel; the whole game in a nut shell, climb a hundred buildings, assassinate 15-20 people, collect flags and simple bonus missions, and counter every enemy to win, really simple, just time consuming

I paid full price for it and although it is repetitive, its really fun and felt fresh to me. You might get turned off by the repetitiveness or the fighting, but for $25, its a great buy!
