Assassin's Creed II
versions and communication
Tue, 11/17/2009 - 01:03 — Greyjethwhen we get AC2 we should exchange each other GTs of the PS3 equivelant (sorry i cant spell) so that way we are able to enjoy this game without having to resort to using a computer/laptop and our respective consoles and/or PC in the tabbing in and out part.
Music

In my opinion, the Assassin's Creed 2 soundtrack, composed by Jesper Kyd- a fantastic but rather unknown composer outside of the gaming world- is one of the most beautiful collections I've had the pleasure to hear. It will bring me great joy to study the music intently, and attempt to understand it well.
I'll cover each track one by one, adding to this post with each track.
Planning first playthrough
Sat, 11/14/2009 - 00:48 — stabguySo, how are you going to play Assassins' Creed II the first time?
Two of my goals are to pay attention to the story and to do stealth assassinations of prime targets on my first try. These are things I failed to do (in large part) on AC1 and ended up regretting it. Not this time! 
SPOILERS For discussion of Lineage
Fri, 11/13/2009 - 22:51 — LilkanyonWell, I loved the 'movie'...couldn't help but think Altair would not get ambushed like Giovanni did. What rolled through your brain as you watched this? And I was hoping the short would show right up to the hanging of Ezio's father but of course that doesn't make sense considering the cut scenes we have seen show Giovanni getting hanged. So they save that part for the game.
Favorite AC2 trailer
Fri, 11/13/2009 - 17:41 — LilkanyonI thought a good way to get some of the many trailers for the game in one place is to make a post of which ones are people's favorite trailers and/or released videos of the game.
Mine is Visions of Venice because it gets me psyched to play the game every time I see it.
Who watched all of Lineage on Spike?
Thu, 11/12/2009 - 22:25 — LilkanyonI did and I was enthralled. But I will give away no spoilers.
What do you foresee as the pros and cons of AC2?
Tue, 11/10/2009 - 19:26 — LilkanyonPros: Obviously Ubi will correct the mistakes they made on AC1, ie...repetetive quests, useless waste of time areas like the kingdom (I hope). I expect the combat will be harder (although the ppl that fought in the demos some of us saw does not prove that, who knows what experience they had with AC1). An expanded story line will be most welcome and some actual personality in the main char (Ezio) will be nice. Altair was a bit "dry". The ability to steal weapons from a guard. That's great. Having notoriety play a role. I hope this has a major impact on the game.
