Assassins Creed II Game Controlls help

[NutterzUK]

Hi there,
This is going to maybe sound like a really silly question.
I am using my xbox 360 controller for the game.
I have set up my controls so that they are the same as the buttons displayed on the screen, ie.. if it says the right button on the little display, that would be the red ( B ) button on the xbox controller.

Anyway... I can do everything but block. This means I also can't counter attack, and I have no idea at all why. All of the buttons on the screen have a button assigned to them, but whatever button I press I can't get it to work!

Please can someone tell me which button on the controls menu is the block button in a right ( ie.. left hand, armed hand, etc etc... as the button names are universal ). So... please can someone look up what it says next to their button for whatever blocks, as in the controller menu there is not an option for "block".

When you are locked on a target (by pressing the left trigger button (LT) during combat) press and hold the right trigger button (RT) to enter a defensive stance where you automatically block the enemies attack. This is the way blocking works, there is no other block button. The trick then is to press the Armed Hand button (the blue button/symbol) just before the enemy strikes, to hit them with a counter-attack.

I hope this helps, maybe I didn't understand your question correctly.
