    Ubisoft has done it again

    For those of you thinking about buying this game all I can say is I definetly recommend it provided you have a very good internet connection that is reliable if not you might find yourself getting frusterated with getting kicked out only to have to restart from the last checkpoint. Me myself I had no true complaint with this though it happend a few times it wasnt horrible and normally only happend when I was just starting a new scene so it didnt actually kick back to another checkpoint just restarted the scene again. I must say as far as gameplay and graphics go Ubisoft did it again its a true tribute to assasins creed with a decent storyline and not as repetitive as its predecessor its a great game. The only downfall I see as in which most games have is things like with the hangglider you see that so much in the commercials well you only get to use it twice throughout the game its not like its an item you can use at your every whim which would be cool if you could but alas its just a marketing ploy again. If you liked a assasins creed 1 then you enjoy this one as well if you didnt you still may enjoy this game to. Overall Id say its a tribute to the original.

    First off. Yes, this game requires a constant internet connection to play. Anyone who hasnt been living under a rock the last 5 years or so has heard of a game called .....World of Warcraft?? Yes, Gasp! Another game that requires constant internet connection! So stop crying about being treated like criminals because you cant get away with getting it for free. The graphics are amazing. The storyline is great. Fun to explore the cities. There are side missions you can do. All things considered this game is excellent.

    Compared to the first it is much improved and the story is excellent. The first one for me was very repetitve but not this one was not. The graphics are stunning controls were great for the xbox not sure about the pc, it does say its reccommended to use a xbox 360 controller. This game was honestly one of the best i have ever played the story is excellent. People should honestly not complain about aving to have a internet connection because honestly to many people get away with just getting the game for free and many game companies have stopped making great exclusive titles for the PC because of this reason, if your connection can disconnect alot then just save alot not really that big of a deal.

    Great Sequel

    This is a great sequel to the first that has yet to disappoint me. whine...whine...DRM...whine. No problems with that here. Most people that game on their pc's most likely have a broadband connection anyways, case closed. The graphics are beautiful. More colors, better textures, tighter graphics all-around. I ejoyed the 1st AC's storyline and the story in AC2 just tops it. Really makes you want to seek revenge. Numerous side missions will keep you in the game well after the story ends. I've only put 10 hours on it in 5 days and with the side missions I'm only on the 4th memory block in the story. Nice game to take your time with.

    Excellent game

    This is an amazing game. People need to stop whining about the DRM. It keeps track of you progress and isn't that bad. Most people now have a constant internet connection anyway, and i'm all for stopping the dam pirates so you people who are saying don't buy this game just because of the DRM, play it first. To those considering it.....do you play games like TF2 or WoW or Champions, all of those game require a constant internet connection but people don't complain about that. So if your thinking of picking up this game...DO IT YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED.

    Possibly Game of the YEAR!!!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is an amazing game, from what I have been able to play so far. You play as a new character. Even have 2 hidden hidden weapons for dual attacks. The graphics engine will be amazing. So many wonderful games released this year, this one will defenately be in the top 3!, for PC, depends on the new COD. But this is a must have!!!

    Ubisoft's new DRM not worth it.

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Don't buy the PC version of this game unless you have a reliable, always on internet connection. If you lose connectivity for any reason, you will lose any unsaved games and the game will lock up until Internet connection is restored.

    HORRIBLE DRM!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Okay this product would be wonderful WITHOUT the DRM...It's a waste of money to buy this. ALWAYS on internet connection! It's the worst idea a gaming company has ever had. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT or ANY UBISOFT product with it.
