You can do what I do and just not play them. I will never understand why some get so upset about certain games when all they have to do is just not buy them.

Hmm, not sure what to think. I skipped Brotherhood because I knew Revelations (I didn't know the name at the time) was coming. Now to decide whether I skip Revelations or not... hmm...

I'm fine with it. Apparently the major one is gonna be AC3, which is pretty awesome.

The games have been great so far, so I have no issues.

Well TBH I would expect next years game to be the last. Remember the series is relying heavily on the whole 2012, end of the world thing. So it would be pretty stupid if next years game didn't end the series.

Assassins Creed has improved with every single game.

Did you know they have 6 teams working on Revelations?

No because every main entry to the series is always an improvement over the predecessor. Though, I wish AC team would also focus on Prince of Persia too and have the two series alternate each year.

AC2 was superior to ACB in every way. the combat in ACB is broken and the assassin recruiting thing is tacked on. the multiplayer is all brotherhood has over 2.

Nope. If "milking" is producing and releasing full games with more than 40 hours of content and a full multiplayer in less than a year, then I say:  Those who have actually played the games would know that there are so many significant changes and additions, that they go well beyond "expansion packs." There was more story in Brotherhood than in II. I don't know why people wouldn't want their games sooner if they are made with the same quality as every other game out there.

I still have AC Brotherhood sealed from last christmas. After I finished AC2, I was like, mehh I really cant start and complete another 30+ hours of the same ol' AC. Not interested in the slightest in the next one either until Ezio's story is over.

i don't know, the combat in brotherhood was such a disappointment coming off of II. you at least had a chance of dying in II in a fight, but it's next to impossible in brotherhood. oh, and once you get that stupid crossbow, any challenge goes right out the window. that said, the series is really good and is definitely up there with me, but i personally find II to be the superior game. venezia and firenze in ACII were just such beautiful and atmospheric cities, and roma was just... eh.

Having played AC, AC2 and AC:B and seeing that there was no drop in quality between AC2 and AC:B despite the short development period, I'll certainly be buying next years installment. Especially since AC:R looks amazing also.

AC: Masayaf, Damascus, Acre and Jerusalem ACII: Florence, Venice, Flori, Monteriggioni, Tuscany ACB: Rome (which is about 3 times the size of Venice) Yes, totally recycled. And only the first game had "mundane" side tasks. I guess its clear you haven't played II or Brotherhood.

That's really odd considering I died far more in BH than I did in II. Trying to get full synch on some missions was incredibly hard. I still haven't even got it all.

Nope, they keep delivering quality over quantity so I'm not tired. Plus this could be the last one...er...sort of. Ezio's story may wrap up in AC: Revelations so that can only mean one thing. New assassin, new story, new additions to the formula, same great Ubisoft. :)

Oh, and I'd prefer Assassin's Creed over Call of Crappy any day IMO. :cool:

They might be good now but with the series coming out every year it will eventually become stale just like COD, Tony Hawk, Guitar Heroes and the EA sports titles. That's why I always feel that a series has its sequels take a break or else they will get old real fast and end up getting a lot of hate.

I personally have hard time playing AC2 after beating ACB. Other than the story and the cities, Brotherhood definitely is a step up. There are many reasons, but I have to say the addition of quick combat and the 100% sync options (and the addition of silent projectiles) drastically increased the stealth aspects. You have to understand ACB isn't trying to be a Devil May Cry; if the combat is too easy, it is intended that way because long combat in AC2 completely destroyed the stealth pace.

No. The only reason I dislike CoD having yearly releases is because it directly changes the industry. Look at Battlefield 3, and all the marketing just attacking CoD, and look at all the games with CoD inspired MP. Resistance 2's MP was great, but it was sacrificed for a more CoD like experience.

AC though, it's doing it's own thing. There aren't really that many games out there directly competiting with it or trying to be more like AC. Now if EA creates a game and the tagline is "Above and Beyond the Creed" and we start getting a bunch of AC clones and the third person adventure series starts to wither and die then I'll complain :P

Nope. Considering I haven't played an AC title since part 2 and I hardly hear anyone talk about the recent titles.
