Assassin's Creed is a considerable let down after all that hype. But unlike Lair, Assassin's Creed is still a solid game and fun to play, its at least worth renting if not buying on faith alone.

The game will probably sell very well despite this recent upset. The only downside to that is many hardcore gamers might become jaded to the hype of new IPs. Unless we assume your average hardcore gamer will like any hardcore game that is hyped regardless (trust me I know quite a few).
