Source? That article seems to be editable by anyone :confused:

Interesting stuff but I'd want something more concrete.

First one was boring. Another game based on a similar idea sounds horrible.

Agree. Hopefully we might get more than one city and one set of objectives this time.

First one was good, but far too repetative!

Only by name. Bar one or two differences they all looked and played the same imo.

What would you like? An outer space city and an underwater city?

Differences other than slight cosmetic changes is possibly his point, although I could have lived with similar environments as long as the missions weren't identical.

For me it was only the lack of mission variety that killed the game, because until the repetition set in, I enjoyed the first couple hours of Assasins Creed as much as I've enjoyed the opening of any game.

I can't wait for this game! The first one was superb! Amazing game!

I picked up Assassins Creed for £15 about 8 months ago and got around to playing it a few weeks ago and I really enjoyed it. Yes it was repetitive and it was obviously unfinished, but I think that was more due to the developers biting off more then they could chew and time was obviously against them to get the game finished.

I hope they've learned their lesson with the first game and hopefully Assassins Creed 2 will be everything the first was meant to be and more.

I guess the reason I was able to enjoy the game was because I didn't pay full price for it and played it at my leisure instead of buying into the hype (which I don't do anyway) and paying full price for it at launch.

Roll on Assassins Creed 2

Looks interesting.

The first one was very love or hate.

I thought it was fan-fapping-tastic and can't wait for the second.

I wished the first one had more sealthyness to it.

I mean what is the point in the blade up the sleeve, when you just whip it out and start a fight with everyone watching? I wanted to do a subtle brush past stabbing and escape before anyone knew they where dead.

You can do that in the first one though. :confused:

Same here.

I'm hoping they do a matching collectors edition with Ezio.
