Its awsome....
Amazing gameplay and graphics, it had a way better story than the first.... though the end was fucking weird.

i enjoyed it a whole lot, there are some pretty neat new weapons
and its always fun to kill people and then run around and climb buildings
there were also BIG rooms you have to jump around to get to your objective which was a lot of fun
my only problem was all of the people talked like mario (the plumber)

sorry my thoughts are so scattered, but the bottom line, thumbs up

I bought it last friday and had beaten it by last sunday haha. Awesome game, I wish it lasted longer. Its soooo fucking fun to disarm people with your bare hands, steal their weapon, and then own them with it.

I have it , the 'extremely limited Play.com exclusive Black edition' that was also sold at all gamestops.. lol.


It was a very good game, it had a new feature called 'Tombs' which are indoor Prince Of Persia type areas where you platform to get a reward at the end. easily the best part of the game.


The story mode has been changed from the first, there are now real cutscenes and there are alot more characters that you meet, and the crowd feels more alive now. And the economic system totally rocks.


have fun, its a must buy.

the economic system does rock, but it kinda sucks at the same time. You can get money to upgrade your villa, but if you get all the upgrades before you beat the game, it sucks. There aren't enough things to do with that money, and by the time you've beaten the game, there isn't much use for money because you've bought all the weapons, armor, paitings, etc.

that is true, but it tends to be like that with every game (see GTA series). But Ubisoft are releasing two game addons, that contain storyline missions (filling in the missing data blocks) so hopefully more stuff for Ezio will be available to buy.

Most likely January.

The pre-order bonus from Gamestop will be one DLC for sure plus there is an entire district of Florence that you cannot access.

sick. I was into that game so hardcore last weekend. I had to beat it before finals week ahhaha, Anything that extends the gameplay is going to be awesome. I played it this morning and just ran around venice starting shit the guards. The best thing to do is take on the fully armored guys with the axes and broadswords. I love watching the counter attack animations.

Haha, I finished it two days after I got it and like you just went around and killed people afterwards.

Got Altair's armor though. So awesome looking.

And the portion of Florence I was talking about isn't accessible in the game as it has been released so that is obviously going to be a DLC.
