DMC 4 OR Assassins Creed? help

I want to rent a game during the March break and it really came down to these 2. I already played COD 4 and all those so yeah. Well. I was looking at assassins creed and gamespot gave it good but other sites said it was repitive and a 7 score. I looked at dmc 4 and got an 8 here, then on other sites did better. But i played DMC 3 and i thought it was the same thing over and the fourth looks exact same. But, I don't know which one to RENT. I need help from people that have played both games.

assassins creed! the story ends up becoming very gd!!

sequel to AC will be amazing

dmc4 is seriously dull

Never played any of the DMC games so I can't recommend it but I do have AC and I have to say that it started out as one of the coolest games I have ever played but them it really got repetitive. You are just doing the same things over and over again. Each assassination is different so thats an addictive element but getting to the actual act involves so much repetition that I actually gave up and haven't finished the game. I may get back to it some day but it isn't "calling me" if you know what I mean.Hawkeye747

wow, you just perfectly summarized how I feel about this AC.

assassins creed by far...people who dont like AC usually do not understand the story bc they are uneducated...it is a great game that can be beat for a rentaldeadbeat2381

The story was fantastic but that doesn't save it from having some of the most boring repetitive gameplay. People in general don't like because of the story but because of the gameplay.

DMC4 by far. Assassin's Creed was such a let down. Ket87

couldn't have said it better myself

Both games are extremely repetitive. You redo the same levels with both characters in DMC4 so I don't see how that's any better.

To me, Assassin's Creed was so much better.

people really need to stop suggesting AC that game was soooo repetitive, the ending was the worst ever.

i had to push my self to finish it. Really. DMC

both repetitive...i would say assassins creed tho its the one i bought......amazing graphics, intense worlds and right out of a actual time in history....check it out!

I fail to see the point of these threads, all you're getting is someone else's biased opinion on these two games. Are you really going to shell out $60 on a game because someone online says it's better than the other one you where interested in? If I where you I'd get what I wanted instead leaving it up to an online community, if you want a button masher by all means get DMC4 if you want a repetitive action game feel free to purchase Assassin's Creed. I've played both and neither are exactly my cup of tea but I guess if you're really into those genres you could find some fun in them.a_user

he is only renting a game...and yes other peoples opinions do help i find because you will be able to find one post that you can personally relate to

I have the CE of both... and let me tell you...

AC is great... but unless you like repetition... get DMC4.

Any answer to this would be purely subjective. Rent what you want.

Which is why you don't understand that AC2 is going to be awesome, do yourself a favor and see the ending, then look up the meaning of it on the xbox website cause you will not understand it, but when you do, im sure you will be......"calling" for it.

AC.

Dmc4 didn't bring nothing new this gen.

AC was more enjoyable and quite amazing for the first few hours.... BUT, after playing for a few hours, I lost almost all desire to complete it... it truly does get quite repetitive.

DMC4 on the other hand didn't blow me away at first like AC did, BUT once I got into it, it became extremely addictive. Overall, I enjoyed DMC4 for a much longer period of time. I would recommend it over AC.

what!!

the ending to assassins creed was great

is there gonna be a sequel??

For my money, Assasins Creed was a fantastic buy. It had something which truly gripped my attention, and that was the ability to fight multiple enemies with a far more fluidic nature,... which so many games up until this have desperartely failed to captiure and execute.

Yes, this is just one element, but along with the incredible graphics, it gave the game a momentum which I beleive was instrumental in its success. Its by no means perfect, ( I was occasionally disturbed there was some pop up, and the frame rate juddered ever so slightly in certain areas), but, in my opinion, to purely criticise this game for being repetitive is missing the whole point of the structure that the developers strived to achieve.

The point of spy, hide and assasination is that it is in essence a repetitive task. You could lay the same criticisms on any of the MGS, COD or, indeed, DMC titles. Yes, the narrative structure and the variety and design of gameplay elements can be altered to be more varied, thats true,..... but how many ways do you want to assasinate a templar???! And surely if you are laying blame that this is just all there is to the game,.... well,... what else do you want to do,.. bake cookies for them???8)

Assasins Creed achieved what it set out to do admirably, in my opinion.
