IGN reviews Assasin's Creed.
 

http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/834/834676p1.html


8.0 Presentation
The historical setting is brilliantly recreated. The story is slow-paced and has some uninspired elements.
8.5 Graphics
The world is beautiful except for the pop-in and framerate issues. The animations are top-notch.
7.5 Sound
Every voice actor is fantastic save one -- the lead actor. The ambient noise could have been a lot stronger.
7.5 Gameplay
Go anywhere and kill anyone. These are Creed's strong points. The game gets bogged down in repetitive tasks too often.
7.0 Lasting Appeal
It could take anywhere from 10-15 hours to complete depending on how thoroughly you explore the world. There's no reason to come back for seconds.
7.7
Good OVERALL
(out of 10 / not an average)

A second opinion from gamespot:

9.0

The Good

* Huge, gorgeous world that feels wholly alive
* Fluid controls make it fun to run across city rooftops
* Joyous mix of stealth, action, and platforming
* Stunning sound design features fantastic voice acting and a beautiful musical score
* Tons of small details will constantly amaze you.

The Bad

* Confusing ending
* A few small visual glitches.
