    Amazing how many people seemed to have criticisms of Assassin's Creed yet they bought it anyway. For a supposedly flawed game, it did well to sell 8-9 million! I loved it, can't wait for the sequel.

    " hey guys, i just bought a copy of the AC 2 preview OXM issue. I think you should know before you buy the issue, that the 4 page article contains SPOILERS of the first 3 hours. i was excited to see assassins creed 2 all over the cover of the latest oxm, but once i opened up my copy, there is a big spoiler warning at the start of the article. OXM needs to put spoiler warnings on the cover so we don't buy issues for a specific article and then don't even read it. But of course they wont, because it means less money in their pockets. "
    I've really become perplexed with this spoiler sensitive culture that is developing.  Now, I don't like to hear about huge plot twists or anything like that, but is giving a little bit of info about the beginning quarter or fifth of a game really a spoiler?  Is telling someone that Jurassic Park is about a park with dinosaurs in it a spoiler?  What about telling someone that Bruce Wayne becomes Batman before they watch Batman Begins.  How about telling someone that 20 minutes into The Mist, an ominous mist enshrouds a small town.  Loosen up people.

    "I am supposed to believe that this Desmond Miles character was related to a Jewish Assassin during the Crusades, and got whatever the shady organization needed from him with the Animus.  Fast forward to Assassin's Creed 2 and Desmond is miraculously related to an Italian Assassin during the Renaissance?"
    How exactly is that implausible?

    In defense of the flag collecting in the first one....
     
    It was bit like a guided tour of some very cool spots in the game that you wouldn't have reason to get to otherwise. Like the tippy top of the cathedral in Acre. Beautiful.
     
    But yeah, getting 1000/1000 on AC1 has probably cured me of ever doing collecting for collecting's sake ever again.

    Where are all the reviews of this game!? Its out today, right? I'm looking forward to this game, AC 1 sure has its flaws but still it was a good game. I'm looking forward to play the sequal but i'm looking for reviews but i guess the embargo hasn't been lifted or something... kind of weird Ubisoft!? 
     
    Also i want to know which version i should buy... PS3 / 360

    Probably a review embargo until midnight Pacific Time (same as it was with MW2). There was also that whole "we want good early reviews" from ubisoft that got blown way out of proportions.  
     
    I bet you'll see reviews start popping out any minute now since its almost 2:00pm here in Wisconsin which means the embargo is about to get lifted.

    Cool, i hope you're right! Then i can pick it up once i'm done working...  
     
    Also, has anyone looked into the different version they want to pick up? I just got a mail from a local gamestore with an ad that had the standard and white edition for the same price...
