[Ferien]

Just picked up my copy. So excited.

[dekamii]

[Komm Suesser Tod]

I'm going to be at work for the midnight release, but my roommate is picking up mine for me, so when I get home I'll be able to play it straight away. Huzzah!

Go go go go go!

I don't even plan on playing it, but I support your dedication sir.

For anyone who doesn't have this preordered, Toy'Rus has it with a $10 gift card tomorrow. Gonna combine that with their 'buy 2 games get $20 off' deal going on this week to get this and New Super Mario Bros tomorrow and then save the gift card for Spirit Tracks next month~

So can we get some input on this game!? I'm not buying it now. Gonna wait til after Christmas. I purposely kept it off my radar. While it looks like a vast improvement over the first, I felt it wasn't anything to write home about.

Yeah id like to know how this compares to the first before I drop my money on it. The first did anything but wow me, as it had far too many things wrong with the system in terms of assassinations, travelling and how the guards would just aggro you if you were in full gallop on the horse -_-

He's running/galloping somewhere! He must be an assassin!

He has a horse and he's going over our speed limit of 2mph!!! GET HIMMMMM

[Mizango]

So far so good

It's much better with this. And when you do actually start a fight with guards there isn't and endless supply that come from nowhere to attack you. The most I've seen is 6 at once.. and the last two usually end up running away.

Much less tedious and repetitive than the first, but overall I still say its a rent.


I could play a whole game with the "truth" and the glyph puzzles. I'm about 3/4 done with them.

Spoiler: show

I know its Adam and Eve, i just haven't solved enough to get the big reveal

They liked it a lot.

Kyooooo where you at bro, need an ACII report stat!

Well Ive ben playing for about 12 hours straight. So far Im loving this sequel alot. The combat, climbing and the story are fantastic. Exploring is rather rewarding, Ive found quite a few chests you would never would guess were there, some buildings are like puzzles and fun to climb.

Ive done a couple of the Prince of Persia type inside building exploration and I had alot of fun with that. Thus far like I said the game is fantastic, the only problem Ive seen so far is early on I expierence a few cases of screen tearing, but that cleared up about halfway into my playing time.

If you were a fan of the first one, your going to love this one. Jumping off buildings to stab a bitch in the neck, stealing and the amount of customization. They took the first one and improved on it in so many ways. This game is a definite buyer for sure.

Was reading some reviews today and they say pretty much the same thing that Ubi did a great job on making this better in every way. Picking my reserve up after work, can't wait!
