Ah, deals. They're either a blessing or a curse, depending on how you want to look at them. Sometimes they're just an undeniably awesome steal; at other times, they're a cleverly disguised way to rope you in on puchasing games you were previously borderline on getting. Throw in the fact that today's deal involves two somewhat politically controversial games in the realm of game journalism -- one more so over the other -- and there's more to it than meets the eye.
But enough of this unnecessary analysis! We're all about the numbers and the savings, right? Right. If anyone's still thinking of picking up either Assassin's Creed or Kane & Lynch and hasn't done so already, then Best Buy probably has the deal for you. Both games are on sale at $39.99; that's 20 bucks worth of savings, politics not included in the box.

A question for my fellow Canadians: Has anyone been able to find Assassin's Creed for RENT anywhere? I live in Ottawa, and despite the game being as high-profile as it is, neither Blockbuster or Rogers Video carry it. It seems REALLY peculiar.

Both of these games is pretty lame. Creed was a waste of time. Everything boss fight is the same thing and the ending was the worst ending of any game I've played. Glad I didnt buy it and just borrowed a co workers.
