Too. Many. Games. Not. Enough. Money.



Good to have this level of choice though. Personally I'm going to buy Assassin's Creed and wait on Mass Effect. Maybe pick it up after christmas.

I loved Knights Of The Old Republic, but to be honest I havn't really given this game much attention. Like you guys are saying the silly season is upon us once again where every company tries to flog us their AAA wares at the same time, while you are surviving on a tighter than normal budget due to having to buy everyone else presents!
I even cancelled my call of duty 4 pre order due to the overwhelming gameage that I have to catch up on and the lack of fundage.
I will maybe catch mass effect when I win the lottery and can live a life of lesuire............

Assassin's Creed has been getting fairly mediocre reviews. Think I might just pick up Mass Effect on Friday instead, or maybe Lego Star Wars The Complete Saga.

Mediocre?

Gamespot: 9/10
IGN: 7.5/10
Game Informer: 9.5/10
GamesRadar: 10/10
GameSpy: 7/10
GameTrailers: 9.1/10
1UP: 7/10
PlanetXbox360: 6.7/10
Famitsu: 9.3/10
TeamXbox: 7.9/10
XboxAddict: 9.6/10
Eurogamer: 7/10
GamePro: 10/10
Pro-G: 8/10

That's an average so far of an 8.4/10. (cross platform)

Does that mean if a game scores an average of less than 9/10 it's mediocre these days?

Game scores are always a bit weird. 80% certainly seems to spell mediocraty in a lot of reviews.

I'd say that something scoring around the 6 (or 60%) mark would be mediocre.
