PS Magazine had a big write-up on it, entire thing is based in Rome, but Ezio can "recruit" assassin's, train them, outfit them in gear, and send them on missions around the continent, and get xp and money from their work.

Ok, so basically it's still a SP game like the other 2 but there's also a extra MP mode for those who care? I really don't care about MP, the story in AC is what drew me in, and the nice gameplay.

I take back my last comment after watching this gameplay video. Shooting a cannon - in a stealth game - seriously wtf!?

Lol, its the beginning of the game during a big battle that sets the start of the story, what did you expect him to do, take out towers with his hidden blade while hanging off a pipe upside down?

Oh nice, I like how they added the ability for you to target someone else while you're pulling a move on another guy. In that one sequence he quickly killed the guy who was going to attack him from behind while he was in the process of killing the first one. Good stuff. I thought this was just going to be some MP only game, but now that it seems it's got a true SP game etc I'll probably be getting it.

Remember the chick that helps you in AC2? The one that's married with kids etc? Yeah, it's her husband, Leo warns you about him at one point in AC2 iirc.

*Edit* I guess I was a bit wrong on that, nvm.

It's what Batman would've done.

Starting to look forward to this. First one was a minor disappointment in terms of bordom, second had (to me at least) a crappy ending, and got a touch monotonous at times (but the puzzles were awesome), so I hope this continues as a step forward. I still liked the parkour/platforming in inFamous, it was more intuitive for me.

Get the second otherwise you WON'T know what is happening in this one, TRUST ME.

Alright, I'll do that soon then, the PC version isn't very good from what I've heard. Isn't that the one which caused problems with Ubisoft's DRM? If that's the case it'll be bought with my new Xbox soonish if I get it. If not then I'll have to bear with the DRM...

I've only ever played the Xbox version and it is very good, get it for your Xbox and it'll be a nice amount of gamerscore added to your account.

Any idea how long the SP will be? If it's on the short side I'll hold off till it goes on sale this time (i got AC2 on pre-order).

Roughly 15 hours from what I've read.

I'm glad they're continuing the story from the second, but I'm starting to get burned out on all these open-world games :/

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By cooky560 · Posted

      Windows 95 offered the ability to add and edit the right click menus, on a per file type basis. This feature seems to be missing in the new file explorer. Are they bringing it back as a "new" feature?
    • AMD 9070XT

      By cooky560 · Posted

      It's nearly time to replace my aging Founders Edition 3080, it doesn't OC as nicely as it used to and it's running around 10c warmer than it did when I first bought it.  I don't have budget for much more than what I spent on the 3080 and locally, that means the best GPU I can manage is a 9070XT. On this basis I have a few questions: 1. At present I don't use ray tracing, if this was to change, would this GPU be an issue? 2. How does it compare on a performance basis? 3. Are the drivers worse or better than those for nVidia? 4. Linux support, is it there? 5. Anything else I should be aware of if I were to make this change? 6. Is it a good idea or shall I try and keep the 3080 a little longer.

      What OS is that? It looks a bit like Mac OS but the command line suggests it isn't, either way I like it!
    • Windows Live Mail : If someone was malicious

      Outlook classic is inherently better than new outlook, for a number of reasons. That said, if the only reason people need office is to read email, they should just use thunderbird.
    • Windows 11 in 2026: Are you fully on board, or still holding back?

      By cooky560 · Posted

      Windows 11 is a big thumbs down from me. I used for a period of a few days while it was in insider and windows 10 was the main OS, and realised it wasn't for me. I am still waiting for Windows to be tolerable again, a shame as at one point I was very pro Microsoft.
