Great fun in a historical environment January 12, 2010 Awwu (Finland) I really enjoyed playing the game. It's a great improvement to the previous installment, which suffered from excess repetition. It's also a fun sandbox game. Having great graphics isn't a bad thing either, not to forget about the historical aspect and several real-life monuments and characters. No wonder it's voted for one of the year's best.
Awesome! January 12, 2010 Convert (Suffolk, UK) This is a truly great game. I bought it for my husband and both I and my five-year old really enjoy joining in. There is such a wide variety of missions that it can be fun for all the family. A favourite bit is leaping off tall buildings into spookily well-placed cartloads of straw.
the best game January 12, 2010 Fabio Santos Amed (braga,portugal) the best game I ever played! the scenario, the social interection, the plot. 5 stars
A step into the right direction January 11, 2010 N. Macdonald I gave the Assassin's Creed 1, 4 stars because it was missing out on something but I couldn't point out what. After playing and completing Assassin's Creed 2 that missing out on something feeling disappeared. The game has improved on pretty much everything.
Storyline:
The storyline begins to make more sense in Assassin's Creed 2. You start off where you left off in Assassin's Creed 1. You escape the building and move into another place hiding. You then go back in time through the DNA and start the storyline. In Assassin's Creed 2 its set in the 1400's in Italy. Azio Auditore is the new assassin. He starts off as a young adult and then his family members get killed. Through out the game you are doing missions to track down the person responsible for there deaths. In the end yes you do find him and get the answers you want. But yet again Assassin's Creed 2 leaves you with another strange but exciting ending. I would say the storyline is much better than Assassin's Creed 1. There are also new characters you meet through out the game. Leonardo Da Vinci being one of them!
Setting:
This has to be mentioned in the review. The setting of the game is amazing. It reminds me of GTA IV. Assassin's Creed 2 has cities set in the 1400's every single one of them is different and full of detail. The cities really make you feel that you have travelled back in time. Its not just the city that's nice the people are detailed and some buildings and masterpieces. It's said that the cities in Assassin's Creed 2 are the best ever made for a game.
What's New?
Lots! New assassin character. Different setting. New characters. Carries on the storyline from Assassin's Creed 1. There's now shops where you can buy stuff. New weapons theres even a gun its not excellent and the aiming is a bit bad but it's a one shot kill.
The Good:
You can now buy weapons.
You can now buy armor and ammunation.
You can now buy different clothes for your character.
You can now buy paintings.
You can now get your armor repaired.
You can now get poison.
You can now get medicine to heal yourself.
A better stoyline.
New improved setting.
More things to do.
In Assassin's Creed 1 there were constant interruptions in the new game there's only 2.
Now saves automatically. I remember having problems with saving on assassins creed 1 no problems with assassins creed 2.
You can now swim.
Travelling from place to place is much more easier and simple.
The Bad:
I think the controls have changed a bit. Sometimes the assassin jumps in the wrong direction when you didn't even want him to. But eventually you do get the hang of it but at first it seems very hard.
The assassin seems to be the only person in the game who can swim. Everyone else dies instantly when they go into the water.
It does change from day to night but there's no weather changes.
Some missions require you to run across the city to kill someone on your way you may slip and fall or get killed and you have to restart all over again. Some missions have check points others don't.
Graphics haven't changed at all there excellent but was hoping for maybe something ever so slightly better.
To sum up the game. It has improved a lot from Assassins Creed 1 which is why I'm giving it 5 stars. It took me just over 2 weeks to complete it spending about 1 to 2 hours a day on it. The graphics may have not changed but the detail of everything has. Problems such as saving or getting lost in the complicated maps have all been sorted. Well done Ubisoft on a great improvement this is a highly recommended game. I will be looking forward to Assassins Creed 3.
wow January 10, 2010 Mrs. L. Lawson Bought this for my husband and not only are the graphics amazing and the cities gorgeous, but the gameplay is also great fun and highly addictive. Just wish it was two player so I could get a go...
