MONDAYS!

Edit. I can't wait to play this game. It's going to be real hard to juggle this Saints Row and Skyrim.

I've played about an hour+ of this already and so far its decent(it came super early on saturday).
 
The start was kinda boring to me but I haven't had much of a chance to play it because of Skyrim.

Man, I really need to follow the dates of the games I'm excited about, 'cause I had not idea this game was coming out tomorrow. I at least knew it'd be coming out this month, but dammit. By the way, Ryan seems to be talking like it deserves four stars... maybe less? Darn. I really liked his honesty when talking about the game and playing it during quick looks.

At this point I'm sick of everything AC. Sorry Ubisoft, you pushed too hard with the yearly installments.

Couldn't disagree more. As long as they keep the quality up, I'm fine with more AC.

I really enjoyed AC2 and Brotherhood, and if this game continues those stories in a meaningful way, I suppose one more year of Ezio is okay. I think next year HAS to be the next big installment, aka AC 3.

Did they seriously just make a reference to a They Might Be Giants song at the beginning of the video? If so that's awesome.

Good way to handle Ryan, back to mechanics. story does seem complicated and yet too easy to give away.

I wonder if Brotherhood may be a bs way of kicking into this franchise. I played part of the very first, didn't take to it. But I have heard of all the improvement.

I was starting to wonder if the guy could die...

@snide It might only be my computer, but when I try to use the HTML5 player for this video, I just get crazy green flashes. Streaming works fine, but I just thought i'd let you know. This isn't a problem in other videos. Also i've close my browser, refreshed the page and all that jazz. I'm using chrome also.

I already played Infamous, Crackdown, Prototype, Grand Theft Auto, and all those other open-worldy games in modern cities, I'm fine with them continuing the pseudo-historical stuff. I mean, the Desmond story has been progressing at a very slow pace, just a little every game, and I'd hate for them to just jump to "Kill modern day Templars GO!" It just seems like there's more to Assassin's Creed than that.

I kinda wish I stuck with this series, but I never finished part 1 so meh.  Despite the apparently drastic improvements, without seeing the rest of the story stuff of 1 I've been kept at bay.

It would be nice to see Desmond's story move a little faster than it does though. I feel like they could really do some cool stuff with Desmond if they would just let us play him a little more.

The part where Ryan says "regents" instead of "reagents" for the crafting kills me. Other than that, I love the Assassin's Creed series and plan on picking this up on Black Friday (Best Buy is selling it online and in store for 35 dollars).

I really, really hope that they've fixed the PS3 frame rate issues that have affected Assassin's Creed since the first game.

Yeah, with each new sequel the series felt increasingly like work to me. I'm not ready for this game yet even though I like the story and the presentation.

@TooWalrus: I agree. There are so many historical periods that can be used before modern day stuff.
