I know it's weird to post about the DS on an Xbox 360 blog, but this is important; especially because a huge chunk of Xbox 360 gamers are also DS fans- and I don't blame them. It's a nice piece of hardware and Nintendo has released a lengthy list of third party games for it, along with the Wii and Assassin's Creed is among the games on that list. Yeah, I was surprised too, and hey- it might be better on the DS. So if you haven't got a DS yet I recommend getting this new model that Nintendo has just finished designing. It has some snazzy new features. Check it out here.
Oh, and it turns out that the ability to download Xbox Original games from Marketplace when the Fall Update is released isn't anything to get excited about. If I wasn't turned off enough by the fact that they were $15.oo each (1200 Microsoft Points- I can get these titles used for $8.99 at GameStop), I am now that they aren't being re-vamped with achievements or any Gamerscore value whatsoever. So really, you're at loss if you download these games over buying them used at GameStop. They will max-out your hard drives and they have no advantage over buying the disks, so I would recommend ignoring them; just another money-making ploy by our friends at Microsoft (sounds harsh but it's the truth).

Take care and have fun gaming,
