[Official] Assassin's Creed 2


Recommended Posts

Exert from Metacritic

Official Xbox Magazine UK

The first Assassin's Creed's charm was in the sumptuous graphics and straightforward action - that incredible climbing and free-running, and the visceral thrill of stapling evil people to the dirt with a wristblade. With AC2 the rest of the game has caught up with the brilliance of those central ideas to create a complete and coherent experience. We can think of plenty of words that could describe Assassin's Creed 2 - involving, exciting, cinematic - but there's only one word that sums it up beautifully. Killer. [Dec 2009, p.74]

90/100

Im playing the first game now because it was $5 on steam. Looks good and the music is great (my favorite is the music that plays when you see the outside of Damascus) but the gameplay is repetitive and if its the same for AC 2 then ill just wait until its cheap on steam also. :p
