Assassin's Creed seemed to be touted as the realization of the new generation of gaming, as if to say, "We've arrived." The PS2 and Xbox era is finally over.
I guess it wasn't what it turned out to be, but I wonder what that game was (I'm still lagging behind, so I couldn't say). It seems like every new generation has that one game... Super Mario World, Final Fantasy VII, Grand Theft Auto III...
So what was this generation's transition game? Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots? Little Big Planet? Wii Sports...?
