Assassin's Creed goes for gold, stabs it

We'll kids, we've got good news and bad news. The good news is that Ubisoft's medieval sneak-a-thon, Assassin's Creed, has gone gold and has a confirmed release date of November 13. The bad news is that you now have one more game to add to the list. You know the one. That list with all the games you need written on it. Everybody keeps one of those, right? Right next to the list of all the essentials you can live without to save money. You know, things like laundry detergent and toothpaste. You don't really need those things, do you?

1. Oh please AC is all I need.

I'm not even thinking about GHIII or Rock Band to be honest. Just not my type of game.

2. This looks mighty cool, but Mass Effect comes first..

Posted at 2:24PM on Oct 25th 2007 by Crashman06

3. Can't wait to try this!
Is there any talk of a demo?

Posted at 2:30PM on Oct 25th 2007 by MARKTW

4. @3 no there will not be one its already been discussed elsewhere.

Posted at 2:32PM on Oct 25th 2007 by DarkTravesty

5. As far as I know there will definately not be a demo unfortunataly. But I dnt think im gonna need a demo on this one, looks like a must buy!

Posted at 2:32PM on Oct 25th 2007 by MDJ2010

6. I'm on the fence with this one, a demo would have been nice!

Posted at 2:36PM on Oct 25th 2007 by MARKTW

7. Rock Band all the way for me. Seems like a better investment over the holidays. With so many people coming over, seems like it would come im handy. I can always wait til next paycheck for A.C.

8. man, with this, rock band, and mass effect I won't be able to have a thanksgiving.

Posted at 2:41PM on Oct 25th 2007 by Travis

9. @Travis - DUDE with ROckBand, Assasins Creed, Mass Effect and COD4 you'll have a great thanksgiving. A Shitload of great games to be thankful for.

Also, be thankful that your xbox360 doesnt have 8 cores.

10. can't wait for this one...

Posted at 3:01PM on Oct 25th 2007 by El Guapo

11. But that's only days before Mass Effect day! I'll be busy with COD4 until Mass Effect day, and my wallet will be crying with all the punishment it's been through during the month.

12. I have no interest in the music games, but AC is below several others on my list.

1) COD4
2) GoW:PC
3) Mass Effect

Without a demo, I will probably pass. I was not impressed with the E3 presentation at all...Guess I am just to stupid to know how cool it is...

Posted at 3:14PM on Oct 25th 2007 by Zapper

13. @12: Evidently because you didn't say "too stupid".

Posted at 3:23PM on Oct 25th 2007 by Leatherface

14. Sure, I can live without food for a while.

Posted at 3:30PM on Oct 25th 2007 by vanhelsingh

15. My list, in no particular order:

Call of Duty 4
Mass Effect
Ace Combat 6
Timeshift
Assassin's Creed

I also had to recently remove Army of Two... because they are bastards and can't get the game out on time.

I have a job and extra money for games so it won't be a problem to grab them all... but I have NO FREAKIN' TIME TO PLAY!!!

Also, what is the exact day that assassin's creed is set to release?

Posted at 3:44PM on Oct 25th 2007 by lharmon

16. hahaha I seriously do have a must-buy Q4 '07 games .txt list on my desktop and of course this is on it. :)

Posted at 3:57PM on Oct 25th 2007 by Alan

17. lol, can't wait!

(un?)lucky for me I don't see all these q4 games attracting my "i want it" stare directed at my computer monitor.

Posted at 4:03PM on Oct 25th 2007 by Chroma

18. not to sound like some crazy fuckin nerd...cuz im not. but, i have an excel sheet with every 360 release coming out for the rest of the year.

Color Codes designate if i should buy on release date or which paycheck there after of course if i want to buy it at all.

i just get really bored at work and dont feel like doing my job so i do other shit. and thats one of my "doodles".

up next ..... xbox360ftw.com (shameless plug)

keeps your eyes peeled.

Posted at 4:11PM on Oct 25th 2007 by Mauricio
