The trailer will look awesome, the clips will look brilliant...

But it will probably be a poor game like the first.

So much potential tho.

its a terrible teaser trailer

So it's set in the Renaissance? Not bad really, was expecting some ****ty modern thing setting.

Chances are they will be getting around to that, if the 1st game's ending is anything to go by. As Desmond unlocks more memories of Altair and his ancestors he will probably bust out and the game might have a lot more action set in the present day.

Not really, i liked it. It may not have brilliant replay value, but the campaign i found solid and unbelievably fun to play.

I enjoyed the first one, a bit repetitive but what game isn't. It had a decent story too.

Well it did tell us that they're gonna throw historical events to the wind and create there own renaissance history :P

Meh, the extended versions get tedious, there was a reason why they were edited out
