    Ezio was born to kick his ancestor's ass... after he learned from them what is was to be able to kick more ass.

    This is stupid. The developers themselves have said that Ezio at the height of his abilities is "better" then Altair.

    I think Altair is way more bad ass then Ezio, but Ezio is a much more interesting character. I vote for Ezio.

    I voted for Altair by accident, but I meant Ezio.
     
    Ezio has more depth to him than Altair.

    @Jayzilla:
    I'm assuming you haven't played the second game yet. In it, there is a cut scene where it shows Altair with Maria, the templar girl from the first game. He has children with her and, since she is of European decent, I'm guessing that's how Altair's bloodline comes to be in Italy.

    FUCK YOU ALL you are over judging altiar and ezio youre saying ezio is better because he has guns and he has better suit and the story line is better THATS BECAUSE ITS NUMBER 2 you rtards if you would switch altair and ezio's places you would be saying altair's better its because of people like you who complain about stuff and then they fix it in the next game you should judge them by 
    The way they fight, WHO THEY ARE AS A PERSON NOT WHAT THEY HAVE, the way they deal, escape and solve problems.
    i could relate altair and ezio to rookie and buck in halo one is a silent killer while the other just talks too much but that is not the case ezio dosent talk that much and i dont hate him that much they both are awsome but i would say altair's better because of who he is 
    and ps i got far enough in the game to know that 1 ezio is trying to get altair's armor in the shrine so eventually i think  now i think they will look the same and 2 Altair is a legened to every one even to ezio they are both great assassins but i think Altiar is better

    Altair is more of an assassin, I mean the dude cut off his ring finger, Ezio on the other hand, seems more like a mercenary, so Altair for me.

    " They are both lame. Altair is of Middle Eastern descent. Somehow his family supposedly intermingled with Italians? Seems far fetched for a dude that is part of an organization(and his whole lineage apparently, seeing that Ezio is a member, as well as Desmond now) that fights against Templars that are historically European. I know it's a small oversight, but they give no back story whatsoever, except for this, "Device of supernatural power". Can you be any more vague at all? Can you be any more generic? Why go to all the trouble of setting up what could be a great framework for a story and have it all hinge on some shadowy artifact that you don't bother explaining in any detail at all? Seems like Ubi dropped the ball here. Maybe they can take it a step further and have an American actor play the lead role in a movie about a Middle Eastern/Italian Assasin and he can use a British accent. Nevermind, Bruckheimer already beat them to the punch on that one. "
    Okay, let's just get this over with.
     It's been proven time after time by historical records that The Knights Templar did infact take part in The Crusades, if you recall the Altair portion of Assassin's Creed II, he fucks Maria Thorpe, who is a limey most likely. Being reasonable Maria could have very well gone to Italy, where she had her child, or her child went to Italy in it's life, where it had a child, and so on and so on until you reach Ezio. The odds of one of Desmond's other ancestors coming to America is not far fetched, it happened since the beginning of the Country.
    Now, to quote a few of the pictures up there.
    I am right, your argument is invalid. Please leave your ignorance at the door if you want to say something back to this.
     
    As for the question.-
    Altair is better, he has the balls to tell nearly everyone he runs into to go suck themselves, while Ezio time after time says he would rather not "Bloody his blade.", and use the "Puss Route", add the fluffy-ness of Ezio costume to the mix, and he is an utter fruit..

    Guys, it's hardly a fair fight.  Ezio gets down with the ladies, Altair gets down with the weed.  You do know where the word assassin comes from right?

    Also. The Piece of Eden is explained throughout the story in  Assassin's Creed, Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines[I think, never played.], Assassin's Creed II, and IU think there was another one as well. If you can prove me wrong, please do so with atleast a legit resource.

    I accidentally voted for Altair since I just woke up, but Ezio is a lot more compelling a character. He also looks infinitely more badass.

    I voted for Ezio.
    As an assassin I think Altair is more deadly. That's cause he was born an assassin unlike Ezio. We didn't get to know Altair much as a person, maybe that's why Ezio's character is way more interesting and I like him more. And he's pretty badass too!

    love Ezio, he's just epic but i had to go with altair, he's deadly, he's cooler by a touch, and hey maybe i like because he's a prick, and does that make me a bad person? the answer is yes.

    Ezio. He has style, personality and gets all the ladies. He can blend in no problem. Altair is a stone cold killer. you could spot him in a crowd no problem,Ezio'd be like "Damn that guy looks like a stone cold killer." Also Ezio has 10 fingers and a gun. But if monks enter the scene, Ezio will lose for sure. Cause, like, monks.

    They're video game characters. 
     
    So you have to use video game logic, in AC2 Ezio was much faster and agile than Altair in AC1 thus Ezio wins.

    The apple does not work on either Altair or Ezio.
