Neat-o. 
 
This contract stuff sounds pretty similar to some of the stuff in Peace Walker.  
 
Also, "They make a sandwich out of historical accuracy" (or whatever it was Vinny said) is now one of my favorite phrases.

I'll wait until this is discounted in a couple weeks. 
 
Not saying it will be a bad game, but i bought AC2 for $39 at Best Buy like a month after release. And AC2 was a excellent game, so i think the same will happen to this game.

I've only watched the last 3 minutes as I'm trying to make myself surprised by all the stuff that's new. But, man, there is a lot of technical issues going on. Things are popping in, there's frequent tearing, the framerate is just barely managing to not fall apart. That stuff seems disappointing.

I hear that this game features face-and-neck stabbing. This certainly does look very good.

the sending assassins to other parts of the world reminds me of committing acts of infamy in Evil Genius.

This game seems to take the Fallout: New Vegas approach to sequel design. More of the same, but good, thing. I didn't really care for AC:II but I can still see it had genuinely good things about it.

This game has single player? Wow, bad marketing indeed. The only thing keeping me away from this is the fact that I can't get on XBL while at uni.

They really did a terrible job promoting this between talking up the MP and releasing the MP beta only.  The MP looked cool, but not something I have to get.  Having a full single player mode as well that's basically AC2+?  That I can get behind.

Can someone tell me the point of the shaved line on Ezios lip? Did someone just forget to put hair on that part and decided that's his look? What's up with that?

Damn it. I was just heading to bed and then this shows up. I was just playing the first minute to see who's in it and sure enough it's Vinny and (of course) Ryan. Fuck! Now I have to watch the whole thing. Damn it.

I think my favorite part of this Quick Look (and the gameplay shown) is how discreet your Assassin posse is when you call them in. Once they kill their targets, they're out. They don't waste time sitting around. Do some dirt and get scarce. That's pretty awesome.
