My opinion is to stay away from Creatine. The main purpose of creatine is to increase energy, which means you have more energy during your workouts. If it's mass you want then I would concentrate on a higher protein intake and working out your largest muscle groups at the beginning of your routine to release the most testosterone. Nothing replaces good form in the gym and good nutrition out of it. As long as you are eating adequate (not too much) amounts of carbs you should have all the energy you need for the gym.
I have tried creatine myself and for me the added energy was not enough to justify the risks and effects on your body. Having said that, I am an advocate to do what works best for you, as long as you are well informed and you look at the entire "picture". Good luck.
