so.. i wonder how yhatzee likes the news about ea retiring "offline" games

Was eh pretty cool review that killed monsters and aliens and didn't afraid of anything

I don't think I could have imagined Yahtzee liking a multi-player aspect of a game. Although it makes sense that combining stealth (done well) and not having to rely on other people would be the first.
It seems disappointing that it takes place in one city, but at least that solves the Assassin's Creed 1 problem of how dull it was to get around.

ah I personally liked the whole calling down your lil minions to do your killing. I used to run into soldier heavy areas and sent down all my minions to fight while I just stood on a ledge and watched them duke it out. Sending the occasional arrow into a soldier that is whaling on one of my protoge's

AssassinJoe:
I always did see a similarity between Yahtzee and Assassin's Creed's Shawn.

I though he WAS Assassin's Creed's Shawn

It would seems that Ubisoft's been paying attention to this particular reviewer and in order to please him put him in the game...

Im not a fan of AC.
If it was about the assassin himself actually set in the time its set in rather than the future and that memory bull (*GASP), I might be inclined to like the serise abit more.

There is an extensive list of examples, compare them to your attempt to see where you went wrong.

I really expected Fable III by now... but I guess you had your share of Fable by now.
Still, a nice review of the newest Assassin's Creed. I can hardly wait to get my hands on it.

Yahtzee likes the snarky british member of the merry band of killers? Who woulda thought?

Anyways, was disappointed a little by AC:B, but overall I thought it was a good game. Just hope they change it up for AC3, specially since what happened at the end of Brotherhood.

Ok I loved the part at the end in the closing title "Historians now believe he was gay". I can't think of many historical figures that some historian hasn't claimed was gay like they got some gay quote to fill or something.

Calling my Assassins was a good way to get those guys that can see you that might fuck up a mission

Being too poor to actually own a current gen console anymore, and my gaming PC getting FUBAR'd, I have to settle for watching Toby Turner's Let's Play videos.

Upon Toby getting to the cutscene where the British bloke was introduced into AC:B, of course the first person I thought of was Yahtzee. I was pretty shocked when the credits were nearing and Yahtzee still hadn't mentioned him.

I loved Assassin's Creed 2, and Ezio, so I was happy to get more Ezio. And the multiplayer is fun (and I never play online multiplayer). But I agree that we should bid Ezio arrivederci at this point--I would hate to see him wear out his welcome.

BlueInkAlchemist:
I too am much more a fan of Ezio than I was of Altaiir (THERE I SAID IT) so more Ezio with some decent multiplayer puts this in the "gonna buy eventually" column.

If AC:B indeed includes enough of the good as mitigation for the crap hanging around from it's predecessor, it should still be a good time.

Similar sentiments here. Altair came off as Generic AntiHero #Whatever that at the end got a bit of development (and got major leaps of it off camera in the second game), while Ezio had a bit more going for him, in addition to all the extra moves.

I wondered if Yahtzee was going to check out the multiplayer, as it seemed right up his alley. The stealth is about being truly stealthy, as you're trying to fool real people rather than just NPCs. Sadly, it needs more modes of play and some way to counter Templar Vision (yes the whole "only allowed 2 powers" and a variety of delaying tools do work well, but the ability to negate hiding in a game based around stealth is the equivalent of a handgun in a medieval setting. You can still be killed, and there are ways to counter it, but it's a huge advantage).

Like the improvements on the game (crossbow, parachutes, combining ranged weapons with primary, flowing combat, the ability to kick to break invincible guards, etc.) but some of the flaw still need to be ironed out.

And yes it is time for Desmond to get his game already (though I wouldn't be opposed to him slipping into another ancestor unintentionally throughout the story and learning to control it towards the end).

WHEN IS HE REVIEWING FABLE III?

I think we can't play as desmond in assasins creed 3 because you stil don't own all the items. If you look at the hologramm of the world that comes somewere you see there are still at least 10 more MacCuffins. Hopefully part tree will be somewere in londen or PARIS. Or more orrigenal China. Playing as a ninja.

I really like listening to him rant =D

It is shitty that they charged full price for a game that was basically an add-on. And the fact that the actual DLC for Ass Creed 2 SUCKED. I couldn't believe when the 1st DLC sequence was over. I was like SERIOUSLY?!? That's IT?!? And no achievements? WTF! Ass Creed 3 better be damn good. Damn. Damn. Good. Good Damn. Damn it.

P.S. I AGREE lol

Well, that saves me 60.00$. Thank you Yahtzee

Except Yahtzee has a point most of the time and curses more.
