More of a personal call, but I have to agree it.
I blame myself for believing the pre-game hype, but it was a shame that a game that sounded like it would have been The Perfect Game for me turned out to be a complete and utter bore that I couldn't force myself to play through no matter how hard I tried to get into it.
Great historical backdrop for the plot (crusades), great middle eastern historically accurate cities, player character is a hashshashin with a free roam environment to explore, etc.
All great elements partly wrecked by the sci-fi themed "entire game is actually taking place in the mind of a descendent of the player character in a sterile lab." And the rest being wrecked by repetitive game play and some really questionable game mechanics (hiding behind strategically placed curtained booths and haystacks).
Not a bad game at all; just not what I had hoped (based on PR hype) and believed it would be.

Exact the opposite here. Before the game came out I couldn't care less. My brother was always talking about it, but I thought the whole gameplay would suck.
Well now it's easily on of my top 5 games of this gen.

I'm not saying it is a bad game. It just happens the other multiplatform game I got this year was Okami, so one of them had to take the title.
I loved the game for the first 6 assasinations. I'm going to beat the entire game, but it could have used some more variaty in the tasks.
