Did you watch it for more than a half hour??

Because in all honesty, the game is a half hour of new gameplay, then it just repeats throughout the game.

I made a post regarding Assassin's Creed when I first saw Ox's post but didn't want to go off-topic.

But since we are talking about, I will say its the worst game every made in terms of replay value and depth.

Remember Crackdown? You kill a guy, kill another guy, do some other stuff, then go for the main guy. You do this for every gang until the game ends. Well Assassin's Creed is similar, but you do it 6 times (if I remember correctly) and it gets old fast. The story isn't gripping and the modern side to the story is totally pointless.

I am not saying this because I hate the game, I am saying this in hopes you will save yourself some money and don't bother buying it. I am going to sell/trade mine once GTAIV comes out, I played on it for 3 weeks from Christmas Eve and it now takes place at the top of my game rack to guard the other games from collecting dust (Seriously).

If I could afford it, I would get R6V2 just to relive the good memories of the first one on 360, but I am a jobless college student with parents who still think I am the age where I need to learn the value of money.

If I like the gameplay, I"m not going to care if it repeats. Uncharted was more or less the same gameplay, but still an amazing game.

Edit: Or you could get a job and work your arse off like the rest of us do to afford things lke games?

I have made many an attempt at getting a job, but there is one specific problem that occurs every time.

The problem? I have American High School Diploma written on my CV (resume). Companies here don't see that as being equivalent to a British school qualification because quite frankly, they aren't on the same level.

I am also very choosy about where I work, I won't be seen dead flipping burgers, stacking supermarket shelves or selling clothes which is 90% of the local job vacancies. I don't care what you say, it's just degrading.

I'm choosy as well, but I finally just said "I need money now" and I got a job with UPS. I never wanted to do anything for four to five hours straight with cardboard boxes.

But now that I've gotten nearly 2 months under my belt at UPS, I'm looking elsewhere for a better job. Sometimes you need to make sacrifices to get what you want.

That's why I can't stand most British people, their snooty asses won't settle for anything less than the best. To them, anything below being an office exec. is "degrading".

Hey, ya can't blame a guy for being choosey. If you don't have to work, then why get a job you're not going to like?

It's important to have standards.

I agree, but everyone has to start somewhere. I'm 20, I started working in a fish and chip shop while I was at school, then moved to stacking shelves and working in a pub kitchen when I was at college. Now I'm in a well paid job, because I've worked hard and earned it. I have to pay tax which goes on people who don't want to get a job because they "wouldn't be seen dead flipping burgers". Have standards and principles, but have the right ones... I hardly think it's degrading earning a living. Better than sponging off of those that have jobs.

They can't possibly be easier than GCSE's or A Levels, can they? I've heard about Weightlifting as a class and stuff like that, but even so... you can be a total plank and still come out with a smattering of passes in even the worst British school.

BoyEngland does not represent British people... he has problems with illegal immigrants, and I daresay that is why he doesn't wish to work the same kind of honest living they often do. Most Brits do not look down their noses at base level work, but I suppose we do have something a little wrong because the army is often the last stop before the dole queue for young men. And being British is not really a bad thing... not a good thing by any stretch of the imagination, but not bad. No.

Back on topic... is there a host advantage in this game? I liked to host on R6V and got 1.29 K/D ratio, which is pretty normal for me so I didn't think there wa one, but people yap about it a lot for R6V2.

Illegal immigrants. Why do I have problems with them? They get the money that honest living British citizens pay into the government system. They enter our country, say they fear for their life, and bring a small towns-worth of family members with them who all drain our tax money.

Don't have problem with base level work, just I think there are people out there who are suited to those jobs and I am not one of them. Does setting my sights on a half decent careers make me a bad person?

No, I don't represent British people because British people no longer represent their country. They (we) are too busy watching the world go by to notice the country (I just mean England here) is going down the **** pan, and not just because of immigrants.

And yes, American exams are easier than ours because they don't have them like we do. They have 2 semesters (each half a school/college year) and they take exams at the end of each semester. They need to pass a certain amount of these to get to the next year in school, and at the end of school they don't leave if they haven't passed enough test (credits are gained for each passed exam). Most of these exams are multiple choice and at my school, you didn't even have to take them if you had a B in the class. All the time I was there, I think I took 3 exams out of the 36 I was supposed to.

Sorry to go off-topic, but I don't see this is fit for the PM system.

I have noticed it, same as the first. In an active game, you'll usually see one guy with an insane K:D, and it's typically the host.

In addition to that, I do remarkably well when I'm hosting.

Completely and utterly unrelated, if not for The Clash, Gordon Ramsay, Jimdalf or Monty Python, I could completely do without the empire!

No, but a "half decent career" doesn't jump in your lap as soon as you leave high school. So when you're 17, 18, 19, having a job flipping burgers or stacking grocery store shelves while you're attending college or whatever isn't degrading at all.

Nobody starts in the big leagues, and you're no exception.
