Assassin's Creed (It was exclusive at first)

nope, made on 360 engine and ported over.  problem with a lot of early games this gen is the 360 had the dev kits out way before sony.  So developers would use those dev kits to make the game, and then port it over to the ps3 when they got the ps3 dev kits.  Assassins creed was this way. 

I believe PS3 dev kits were already out before a 360 version was even announced.

could have been, it doesn't mean that the game hadn't been in development for a long time before that.  Ubisoft started making that game when they got the 360 dev kit.  If you recall, it was first shown off as an xbox 360 game at the X05 event.

No, it was first shown as a PS3 exclusive at E3.

It was rumored to go multiplat in late August of 2006.

lol, yes it was shown at X05.  Ubisoft was calling it project assassin then, but yes, it was the same game.  They revealed the true name of the game in the may e3 of 2006 and only announced it for ps3.  they then announced it for the 360 later that year.  However, the x05 showing proves that the game was developed on using the 360 dev kit first.  Here's a link, you could also just google assassins creed x05 to come up with more sources.
