I don't know if I liked Assassin's Creed enough to play another one.... I would hope they'd do something to make it more than one cool thing.
Assassin's Creed II
Game » consists of 27 releases. Released Nov 17, 2009
The second installment in the Assassin's Creed franchise follows the life of Ezio Auditore da Firenze as he seeks revenge on those who betrayed his family.
Assassin's Creed for a New Era?
Glad to see you getting out there Ryan, proving Jeff aint the only one ;)
As for Assassins creed, i love the idea! i personally was hoping for some medieval action, almost Robin Hood-esque sorta, but this seems still cool.
The idea of playing during the Terror, actually makes me really interested in Assassin's Creed; even though I hated the first game.
If your going to photoshop Altair into the painting, atleast make him the same color as the damn painting =p
I still haven't beaten the game! I got it, CoD 4, Mass Effect all at the same time, and I was still working a bit on Bioshock, so I never had much time to play it. And I eventually got so frustrated by how easy it was to bump into ANYONE, and have guards on you when you had to sneak aruond for investigations. Can't wait for some more official stuff though! French revolution would be pretty cool, it could bring some relaly interesting things to the table.
"So Altair was the one who assassinated Napoleon by slipping Arsenic into his wine for several years?"COOL. Although, it might not be Altair sadly.
"So Altair was the one who assassinated Napoleon by slipping Arsenic into his wine for several years?"
Actually, Altair is the one who gave Napoleon that STD, so they'd treat him with arsenic.
That's kinda weak Jeff, Pachter told you guys a secret and you have to go telling the whole internet? :/ Interesting setting though if it's real. I hope it doesn't use guns now, it would probably ruin the gameplay.
"I'd want a decent explanation of Assassin's Creed after the bad ending, before jumping onto a new test subject and a new ancestor's memories to unlock."You didn't get the ending...?
I loved this game, but it will continue from the cliff hanging ending of the original.
One of the best games of 2007. For me it was the best.
"I loved this game, but it will continue from the cliff hanging ending of the original.Same!

I enjoyed the first one even though it was flawed. I am looking forward to this and hope they have a better variety of missions for each level.
best idea ever!
Napoleon is Altair's grand,grand, grand,grand, grand,grand,grand,grand,grand,grandson (put thought into the grands 10 of them ca.600 years)
and the creed is actually the revolutionaries, and in the end you end up owning France.
Running through the streets with Napoleon. A gnome with a funny hat.
yey! viva la revolution !
Why, do people keep alluding to the Napoleonic era? Woldn't the "Terror" be a much more interesting setting, and far easier to center an actual game around?
The French Revolution Period is much more well known than 10th century MidEast. I don't see where they'd insert the character. Being an assassin felt right in the first game, but the revolutionary period is more sophisticated and less exotic. I don't see this happening.
Maybe, you could play as that chick who stabbed that guy in the bathtub; that newspaper fellow, I can't remember the name of.
Assassin's Creed 3. It's now present day, and your character reveals that he wanted to be captured and put into the animus. It was the *only* way to get close enough to the *real* enemy, and make the big kill. With this assassination... you'll finally end the war!
You heard it here first folks.
"I also thought of the "Terror" when i first read this story. It fits in with the themes of revolution that the first game contained.Why, do people keep alluding to the Napoleonic era?

LMFAO @ "ARTISTS INTERPRETATION"!!!!!!
That sounds badass...it as always rumored that the sequal would be in another time-frame, but everyone assumed it would be in the far-future of the "real-world" sequences of the original.
Wait a minute, after beating the first one, I was sure the next Assassin's Creed was going to take place in the future?
I wasn't "hoping" for a feudal japan setting- in fact I don't like ninja ideas... feels overdone... despite not being done much- its just the last game set itself up so well for it mentioning Yona Guni (a feudal japanese place) and all. Aswell as time and circumstances of this. I'm surprised they would go in another direction after leading up into another with the last. Its almost like its lost Unity with the transitional elements of the end.
Finally! This is the news I've really been waiting for ... even if it's just rumour at the moment.
Completely agree with Duke Togo's comment - a great immersive world which I loved the first time round, but the changing of the character's garb (even with a similar basic character) will be a big thing - will they be able to maintain the continuity having made Altair so iconic in the first game? I was with Jimbo in thinking it could be South America around the time of the Mayans or something (based off of the runes you see at the end - though maybe that was just generic allusions to the depth of the Templar conspiracy).
The problem with Mayan/Aztec civilization ....... not too many densely packed settlements for good rooftop travel, same goes for the middle ages for those people wanting that period. 1700s France though could be perfect for that. Political intrigue, soldiers in the streets - sounds a plausible and really interesting setting to me.
lol, I'm getting flashes of The Highlander...
That is great news. Imagine being chased by a handful of French Imperial Guard with muskets. :D :D :D
Or, sitting on a roof with a musket waiting for a target to come by.
This would be a welcomed change for me.
