Just picked this up yesterday when I realized I had a wodge of wonga I could only spend in the US (Gift cards, don'tcha know) so yay AC2 is now an Xmas gift for me.

And it is god damned awesome. I'm not so far into it yet but I loved the opening stuff. It was nicely paced, slow enough to set the scene, but short enough that it wasn't boring. And haha I felt like such a badman when I first stepped out dressed properly.

I liked AC a good deal but this just pisses all over it from an extraordinarily great height itbt. Paul's assessment about the rate of improvement is correct.

Hopefully one thing they do with ACIII is make the assassinations more like Hitman though. I mean yeah an assassin can be all in-your-face as long as he gets the job done, but I do want to be a sneaky Tenchu/disguisey Agent 47 cock who does things like a stealthy git.

And I died laughing at "It's a-me, Mario!"
