Woop. <3ed Assassin's Creed 1 but the main problem was repetition of mission types, the whole game played the same. So new mission types sounds good, swimming (though I loved throwing civilians into the water) and whatever else. Epic.
Hmm, I don't know how much I like the idea of it being in Florence, but the rest of that sounds great. Although I did like Altiar, I guess it was inevitable with a game of this type to move eras and clearly change characters. Even with the repetition in Assassin's Cred I really enjoyed it, I've gone back to finish the game twice more after my first run-through. With more variation in missions it should be loads better, and I'm also hopeful that they give more stealth options, it was very difficult, if not impossible to get an assassination done without being spotted.
This game looks like it's gonna fix everything that was bad from the first one. Like making it less repetitive and etc... I'm really feeling that Da Vinci glider idea.
5 games mentioned here, which are also not for PS3? Not to start a conflict, but what scarletham meant was, "What more could gamers expect?"
I'M NOT GETTING INVOLVED IN THIS But seriously though, are you saying it's annoying that they're not for PS3 or that PS3 sucks?
I hope they made the game less ripetitive. I can't wait to play it, especially since I'm italian, and I'll be climbing buildings and stabbing people in italian cities
Thanks Broken, I don't even know what my boy Hocus Pocus was on about? Oh, and I definitely hope this one is less repetitive - saving people from guards and jumping off tall buildings got a little boring ;p
