    so dawgs, who has ac2? plus how far are you? and how are you finding the story and the story elements?

    im finding the glyphs pretty sinister the way it reveals a video of what is clearly:
    adam and eve running out of the garden of eden

    btw im freaking loving it
    not repetitive at all, it feels like im rarely assassinating people either.

    I have it, got it day of and I absolutely love it. It's like they took everything good from AC I and moved it onto the second game, threw out all the bad, and then expanded upon the good. Ezio is much more likable than Altair who is so blatantly black and white that you think of how cheesy he was. Ezio seems to sit more in a gray area, he's obviously not a person you would want to be yourself, but he does have traits that make him seem to have more personality than let's say a brick wall (or Altair).

    The story flows much better than the previous, not simply go here, eavesdrop, find viewpoints, beat up a guy, assassinate the target, find out a bit more information. Missions are interesting and unique, each one holding up differently than others, as well as enough side missions, with only a few being collectible (codex pages, assassins symbols, and feathers, and two of the three are marked on the map).

    Right now I am about to use DaVinci's flying machine, and I think I can say that without spoilers since it was revealed in one of the early trailers that you would be using his flying machine.

    Great game, I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who doesn't have it, it can seriously be in the top three of best sandbox games ever.

    yeha id say if youre deciding between this and l4d2, then this is the for sure the better
    l4d2 is more of a l4d1.5
    ac2 is so cool n' all that

    ezio's is definitely more like an actual person than an arrogant prick that altair was
    plus i actually was attached to the family even though it was for a short time

    Yeah, I like the new character as well, plus he's pretty pimping. I found this funny glitch in the beginning of the game where you have the gang fight. I was able to tap the punch button enough that it glitched and I jumped on the guy and stabbed him with the hidden knife I didn't have.
    I like how the missions are a lot more diverse and not really repetitive at all. There are many different things you can do in each mission and it didn't bore me as it did in AC 1.
