How could all the GB guys review this so highly, saying that "the ending was so amazing that it's forcing me to care about the on-going story". This ending is TERRIBLE. In fact, the game's entire plot was strung together by what was mostly unimportant drivel. The only reason why I played it through to the end, is because what I heard on GB, and now I'm going to question GB's word. AC2 might be the worst game I've played all year.

You might think so, but a lot of people including myself think it's great. I actually think it's one of my favorite endings ever. It's just so epic and really makes things more interesting - I cannot wait to see what happens with the next installment. AC2 is actually the best game I played from last year, and I've played pretty much all of the big-hitters.

The best part was when Desmond says, "what the fuck?"

I wish Desmond broke out at the end of AC1.
 
Infact no I don't, cos I didn't finish AC1.

GB is of course putting it as their opinion not fact. You can't discredit them because there opinion is different from your own.

i just finished it about 2 hours a go. The whole story meant nothing to me, i thought some of the characters were alright but that was about it.
 
Then the ending happened and it was awesome.

So you have judged all of the game just because of you thought negatively about an ending that you dedicated your trust from people who honestly appreciated it?

Both of these.  Fine if you have a differing opinion but worst game all year?  Come on dude, be real.
 
I absolutely loved the ending and AC2 was my favorite game of the year.  I went from not really caring about the overarching story of AC1 to being way into it with AC2.  Well done by Ubi.

@Dany: Eh, I could elaborate, but despite my best efforts to explain myself, it's obivious that I'm in the minority. I kept thinking throughout the game, that I'd rather be reading a book about the game, because for one, many main-game-quests are pointless. The dialogue is filled with exposition. There were a few points when I was honestly being intellectually stimulated, but other than that, it's all mostly filler. The ending was a sincere disappointment, and I'll break it down to these points:
 
1. Fighting the Pope in the courtyard, when all the Assassins (Paola, Mario, etc) surround him, he then runs away... Paola says "No Ezio, he's gotten away"... Umm... are you kidding me? This guys the fucking fatest guy in the game, how the hell as he "gotten away". Poor writing.
 
2. The fact that there's no setup for Ezio's multiplication trick. This is what we call a "McGuffin" in screenwriting.
 
3. The fact that there's no setup for the Pope's super powers? (which is more comedic than anything) (also a mcguffin)
 
4. The fist fight at the end is hilariously pathetic, as Ezio and Pope are having a casual conversation while swinging fists feverishly.
 
5. And... Aliens??? Really?? The fact that there's no setup for this either... and that the clothing that the aliens are wearing are unsubstantiated by anything of historical significance. It's practically like why the ending of Indiana Jones 4 was fucking terrible. Why not add something as cliche' as aliens to every ending, it would appear that most of you would find it interesting.
 
6. Rolling Credits over what is the most important and climactic part of the game??? Wow, poor choice. And why don't the guards at the ending have guns?? Oh, that's right, poor writing, or a lack of creativity to figure out how Desmund could figure out how to deal with guns.
 
7. Having the final conversation over a black screen, when you've wasted so much time at a place like the Carnavale???? What the hell? TERRIBLE WRITING!

Worst game "I've Played" all year. Not the worst game of the year. Please learn to read.

Ugh dude, unless you're a douche you wouldn't say a game you didn't play was the worst.  You'd have to be pretty impressionable at least if that was the case.   You know what I was saying.
 
Either way it's far from the worst anything.  In fact it's one of the best games of the year, most people would say so.

I like video games that are the best in their class (Braid being one of them), but this game is not even in the same league as a game like Braid, or Shadow of the Collosus. When someone raves about a game being the best in a year, I'll play it, and I played it all the way through to experience the game as a whole work, opposed to judging based on half a game.

Has anyone noticed that people think they're extra clever when they decide to hate on something most people agree is good?  Then the share that clever idea by capitalising the thread title's emottional CONTEXT.

LOL, then you see my point. Why would I play the worst games of the year? It's not my job to do so? I'm not a masochist. So, what I AM saying is that it's the worst game I've played all year. Thank you.

I'VE NOTICED THAT YOU ARE A BIG FAN OF CAPITALIZATION TO TRY AND PROVE YOUR POINTS YOU THINK ARE CLEVER FOR SOME REASON.  Well they aren't and AC II was one of the best games of the year.  Nice selective quotation and poor reading skills I guess.  Read my post.

No you're not.  As you said everyone is entitled to their opinion.  Opinion is a personal context and can't be proved or unproved.  It just is.  Therefore you have just made this thread for attention.  You're not waiting to be proven wrong, you're waiting for people to insult you so you can insult them.
 
As I said before : Obvious troll is obvious.  Troll.
