    And by the way, I think it will release for PC on March 16, 2010.

    Good Morning, Gentlemen. I am looking forward to this game. Too bad, I do not have a PS3 or XBOX 360. I really hate these two things, they always get the good games first, and there is not even anything about Prince Of Persia The Forgotten Sands being released on PC. What is the matter with game developers? PC is better than PS3 and XBOX 360!

    This game is a bit lame. 1st..your not even an assassin. 2....he dresses up in his dad's outfit and he still dosent get it. 3...you spend the first half of the game just running and jumping.....4....he allways crys about running away and not fighting...5...your not even an assassin. How you can play a game call ASSASSINS creed and not even be a assassin?? Originals are allways better than the 2nd. Dont waste your time or money on this game. Play the 1st for cheap and you'll be much better off.

    @Tuco_az you have clealy played the game for like 30 minutes. THis game builds up over time. it acctually has a good story that ac1 lacked. it builds up from an ordinary citizen to a full-fledged assassin. play the gaem for more than an hour and maybe youll realize that its worth even more than $60

    update review, i was really excited about this game when i got it on launch day. These few days later not so much. You start out as a son of an assassin, NOT an assassin. You start off not knowing anything. Your first few fights are only fist fights. Your pretty much a dope with climbing skills. The new car smell is wearing off and it doesn't look much better coming up. I mean i shelled out the 59.99 on day 1, I wanted this to rock soo much, but it's looking like Ubisoft went the way of EA and cut all kinds of corners relying on it's past to sell the game. when you finally get your "secret" assassin blade,you still dont even know your an assassin. And if you get in a fight with the guards, they have swords and you have to fight with you assassin blade, lol. You dont even sniff a sword till much later when your given a beginners sword.
    What you will do is run alot and jump alot. Once again, the original is the best. Assassin's creed 2 is lacking alot.
