Oh no, it completely ends on a cliffhangar in more ways than one. I actually picked up AC2 because of it.
Wasn't the plot in the first game originally self-contained or something? Or at least, came across as something you couldn't stretch out into a franchise? That's what I heard, anyway.
Lol, it's not a bad series per say but I do feel the annual release schedule has done more harm for the franchise than good.
I only played II and III. It's one of those game series that I like, but don't feel strongly enough about to go out of my way to play the other entries. In fact, had II and III never been requested I probably never would've played them. I'm a gamer's hipster. I like mah old games.
Don't even get me started on AC. I still haven't gotten around to playing ACIV.
With some games it's not even worth it playing out of order. -coughcoughassassin'screedcoughcough-
I'm usually bad about playing games in order but it might have more to do with needing variety. Yeah it just bugs me when I'm missing a piece though.
Don't you just hate that need to play in chronicle order? I tried doing that with Final Fantasy back when there was no way to play Final Fantasy III.
I have the second game but not the first so I haven't played it yet because I want to go in order.
I played a bit of it to test if it was working. It's on my 'to review' list at some point. I got my hands on the Resident Evil for Game Boy, too. Ooh, and Metroid II. I have all the old Metroid games now. Your post reminded me I still need to look into the Acid series.
