Assassin' s Creed (Xbox 360/PS3, Ubisoft): 7, 6, 4.5

6 and 4.5?

I know AC didnt live up to the hype,but get real,im so fucking tired of these reviewers who has to trash a game if it didnt live up to the hype,review the game on what it is,not what it could have been.

4.5

?

my ass.


ps! I dislike Jade raymond and thought AC were around 85/100 im no huge AC fan,but 4.5?

get fucking real.

Mainstream gaming news fails.

Always has.

Always will.

The game doesn' t deliver on its promises, but a 4.5 is a score for a broken game. Even with the glitches, AC is far for being broken. I gave it a 7.

It' s like Games TM (A UK All Format Mag) gave it 4 out of 10 and pretty much said they were disappointed. 4 is an awful score and the game can' t be that bad. Edge pointed out it’s flaws much more eloquently and gave it a 7.

anybody giving it lower than a 6 [ lol at 100% scoring idiots] needs their brain checked.

Most people these days think 6 is a bad review since their scale only goes from 6 to 10. People can' t wrap their minds around the fact that 5 is average. Of course I' d probably rate ASS ASS in' s Creed a 1 since I have no desire whatsoever to play it in my lifetime.

If that actually was the case,then why do every reveiwer give a game 8 or 9 when its good?

This is how I see it: You say 5 would be average? In college however, a 5 out of 10 would be a D. Is D an average grade for a game? I thought it would be C.

That' s EGM' s rating scale which they state clearly in every single issue. EGM is not a college. Any college that gives a passing grade for a 50% score is way too lax, though. What a shitty college.

Other reviewers give decent to good games 8 and 9s because of people like you (Quez) who whine and bitch when they get anything lower.

You' re right, 50% is an F, where the hell have I' ve been these past few years

In general...

A: 90 - 100
B: 80 - 89
C: 70 - 79
D: 60 - 69
E: 50 - 59
F: 40 - 49

So yeah, 50% is borderline E/F

But since videogames reviews aren' t college exams, it doesn' t matter.

EGM/1up' s Assassins Creed review average is 5.8 ...and i wouldn' t have rated the game much higher. So what' s the problem?

I say if you don' t like their review don' t read it. Make your own opinions start a website and maybe people like yourself will listen or bitch if they so choose, and who cares everyone is different let them be.

Did anyone else notice that whatabout_paul is back or at least looks in every now and then. Dude you should post here more and actually get up to a five star rating.

Well Majik your not in a majority if you would give it 5.8.

If i was reviewing it i would probably give it what i' d have given Kameo, Perfect Dark and Heavenly Sword.

7/10

Compared to games like Uncharted, Gears and Call of Duty 4 - Assassins Creed is a 7 at most, probably a 6.

Just because the majority gives it a 9, doesn' t mean is it deserving of such score. Like I said, I gave it a 7, and for me that was being generous due to the fact that it does do some really cool stuff, but the technical, pacing and monotony issues are more than the good. So in this case, I stand firm against the current.

I think those scores are fine.

But...when you give AC 4.5 and 5.5 you have a weird review group.

Yepp,I thinkm 7 is fine,but 4.5?

come on.,..

Like I said, I would only give a 4.5 to a really broken game, or a game I really hated it. AC is neither.

It' s how EGM works though. They have a low score, a higher score and a score in the middle. It' s done that way on purpose. It' s pathetic and their reviews don' t count for shit... but that' s the way they operate and it isn' t going to change any time soon.

Eurogamer gave it a 7 which i think is fair.

Since I don' t have a 360 I can' t really say all that much about the game because I can' t really sink my teeth into it...but from what I' ve played at a friends house and that was atleast around 5 hours all the times put together...

I' d say 7 to 7.5

A great example of what deserves a 4.5 was Sonic on 360/PS3 which was basically a broken game...falling through platforms when landing, being stuck on walls, extremely aweful controls, a horrible camera and horrendous loading times.

That' s something you' d give a 4.5

AC has some good stuff, but it ain' t nothing special to me and doesn' t really stand out that much. It isn' t aweful nor is it great. A 7/7.5 is a perfect score for this game.
