I'm really curious about this too. I never plaid a console version of Assassin's Creed so the DS version will introduce me to it.

Still no reviews :( And knowing GS it won't get a review until about May or June. Does anyone know if Nintendo Power or EGM will review it in their next issues?

I think Gamespot was wrong about the release date, because I saw an advertisement said that the game was coming at February 7th, but now I'm confused because there's one player review for Assassin's Creed DS, take a look at the game's user score.

Sorry for my English, my primary language is Portuguese

Go for Hotel Dusk! No matter how good Assassin's Creed DS might be, Hotel Dusk will be better. It's my second favorite DS game (behind the first Phoenix Wright).

Hate to be the guy who brings the bad news but Gamespot is not updated Assassins creed does not come out till march sometime. I only found out after I went by gamecrazy and they did not have it so I checked it on the internet and found the new release date. This is the fifth time I have gone to the story to get a game because gamespot said it was out and found that they are not up to date.

I don't know about you, but playing games under those conditions does not make me play games quickly. After crying when I lost a patient in Trauma Centrer, I gave it up while playing video games. Then I realized it actually made my video game progress r e a l l y s l o w.

If the game really hasn't been released yet, then odds are it's a fake.

I have not gotten it yet,but I've played thru Creed for 360 and I have faith that it will be an amazing one of a kind title for DS. I could be wrong. We'll find out.

Well I'm not really sure I played Assassin's Creed in Xbox 360 Which I like better, but this one seems okay but I really don't think I might not pick this game yet.

yea i just brought it like an hour ago and its pretty decent. i like the cut scenes. the assassination are pretty cool. similar to the console versions. LEAPS towards his opponent, then thrusts the hidden blade through the throat in a very stylized fashion. i like the combat, gamespot preview said it felt clunky but it felt somewhat fluid 2 me. especially the counter-attacks and the fatalities you can perform after you daze an oppoent. theres something that doesnt quite do it for me though, or maybe im just being finicky. it still deserves to be looked at, or played atleast. im fresh in the beginning so im sure its gonna get more intense and exciting. im hoping that the desmond guy will pop up somewhere o_O. if youre into platformers (which im really not), or assassins creed (which im also not), or you just got caught in the hype wave(which is what happened to me). then play it to quell your curiosity, or rent it!? im enjoying it :D

As I posted on another topic:

Well, I got the game about an hour ago, and my first impressions are good. The graphics are excellent, although a little fuzzy. The dialog is decent, and the story is good enough to hold me, although it would probably be a bit more captivating had I played AC for the 360. The controls work well, although if you want touch screen controls, pick up LoZPH or wait for NGDS. These controls are almost purely button, although the touch screen is used for certain "mini-games", if you want to call them that. Battle is nice, with very nice animation. The frame rate is ragged on a lot, but I didn't really have a problem with it, excluding the opening cutscene, which had slight lag. The previously mention "mini-games" are the pick-pocketing, interrogation (and probably one other that I have not gotten to yet) interfaces. interrogation is like a dumbed down Elite Beat Agents, and I don't exactly know how to describe pickpocketing. Probably the only thing about this game that kind of annoyed me was that when you aquired a new skill, it didn't have a little sample-type thing immediatly, and you was or may not be forced to learn how to use a skill in a high pressure "I don't wanna die!" situation. Also, spikes kill you no matter what , whether you land on them or just bump into them, which was annoying in my opinion. All in all, I would give this game an 8.0-8.5. I would recommend it for sure.
