If only to experience the unique world and amazing movement and combat, gamers owe it to themselves to try Ubisoft’s big holiday release. Its stunning visual style, high concept story, and wildly open level design are like nothing else, even if too much repetition begins to frustrate in the later hours. It’s a game people will still be talking about five years from now. Come to think of it, they may have a lot more to talk about by then.

Assassin's Creed is not a stealth game. There are elements where you will need to be a bit sneaky, but this is an action title. It's not Metal Gear or Splinter Cell. From what we've seen, you'll be forced to make split-second decisions on a regular basis and will almost always be on the move. Whether Assassin's Creed is the best thing since melted butter on popcorn remains to be seen, but it certainly looks promising. With no demo planned, most gamers won't get to enjoy the experience of performing assassinations in old Jerusalem until November.

There's been a whole lot of hubbub about the next-generation of gaming and how it will take the interactive experience to a new level. So far, this new generation of design hasn't emerged. We've instead experienced prettier and at times bigger games, but nothing that truly pushes things to that next plateau. That is until this November when Ubisoft releases Assassin's Creed on PS3, Xbox 360, and PC. Finally we have a game with a design worthy of being termed "next-gen."

If you play Assassin's Creed for an hour, you will probably think it's a fantastic game. But as Assassin's progresses, its dual storylines and repetitive quests begin to grow tiresome. There are so many great individual elements, but they are lost among the myriad of poor decisions. Presentation 8.0; Sound 7.5; Graphics 8.0; Gameplay 7.5; Lasting Appeal 7.0; **Overall 7.5**
