    ok i got this game and you all know what its like dont you, well you might think its perfect but after playing it you will soon realise it has bad framerate after your a few hours in.. screen tearing when you ride through the country side.. and the annoying thing of ezios arm going through his cape when he sprints, climbs etc... I mean if i was at ubisoft seeing that i'd be like thats got to be fixed SOON AS, they blind or just fed up with the project now?? sorry but theres loads a things they could of fixed.. game deserves no more than a 8/10 period.

    I like how you get to buy, upgrade, and run a little city. Doesn't seem like a person could get bored of this game. There's always something else to do besides the main quest.

    Yes! They are getting annoying! But dudes, seriously, ACII will decapitate MW2!! A shoot 'em up versus a highly stylized historic and interactive swash-buckling secret ninja-status action adventure? Hmm. I wonder which is going to be better? I mean look at what you're able to do in ACII and tell me with a straight face that it won't be even more fun than shooting dudes over and over again. ACII will be much more enjoyable than MW2. You dudes who don't know which one to get, I hope you make the right decision.

    Awesome game! It looks 10 times better then the first one and the first one is truly amazing. I will get it. But i'm getting modern warfare 2 first because it is hands down the best game ever. In the entire GALAXY. THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE! If aliens had games Modern Warfare 2 would be better.

  • Trogeton

    Posted Nov 9, 2009 6:31 pm PT

    @ yucatronixxx
    ok so this is the run down of the story between AC1 and AC2. you played AC1 right? well in the end of AC1 you exit the animus and lucy and the doc go into the other room. As soon as desmond gets up he discovers that he now has the eagle vision that altiar had. Then you walk around and see all the writing on the walls and what not. then you go to his room and see the writing in his room and the credits show. Now its over. AC2 begins with desmond exactly 15-20 minutes in time after the first one ended with desmond in his room lucy comes in rushing desmond to hurry out. You then go inside the animus really quick and there you are introduced to a new time period aka the renaissance as ezio! Now i wont ruin exactly how your introduced to ezio or what happens with desmond and lucy and why she was in a hurry but thats what the producers mean when they say AC2 starts off exactly where AC1 ended.

    @Hickamie14 I'm sorry, i didn't mean the "death day", i'm brazilian and we use "d day" as a very important day, srry for the bad usage of this expression... And i agree with you, it looks so much better than the first one and i'm starting to wonder what are they going to do in ACIII

  • REPNthe10

    Posted Nov 8, 2009 10:32 am PT
