While I am still waiting to receive my copy of what has only recently for me become a highly anticipated game (thanks to GB  QuickLooks) I am already wishing that Ubi had taken this opportunity to include a co-op mode. The multi-player probably indicates that this will happen in the next main episode of the series but this game seemed like the perfect opportunity to try it out. From a story perspective since you already have AI 'assastants' (assassin-assistants) and it seems like they could have easily slipped another player in without some 'gamey' explanation.  Still, I hope I am right about the next one and will keenly await details of the next installment.

I have to admit that I am really looking forward to trying the multi, it seems to have the fairly underutilised 'hide in plain sight stealth' hunter-hunted thing going on which hasn't really been done well on consoles yet and offers a clear alternative to all the COD style shooters around.
On a final note, this couple of months have and will continue to be expensive for gamers like me, it's pretty crazy to think how many big titles are coming out or have already come out this month. My wallet is groaning, my PS3 glowing hot and my PC sings it's siren 'upgrade me' song to me every night.

So far the multiplayer seems like a big success.  I wouldn't be surprised if we saw co-op in AC3.
