Story: At the beginning of Assassin's Creed II, Lucy returns and breaks Desmond out of Abstergo. He is brought to a hideout and introduced to her Assassin allies Shaun and Rebecca, as well as an updated version of the Animus. Knowing what is at stake, Desmond volunteers to enter the Animus again, and explore the memories of Ezio Auditore da Firenze, a young nobleman from 1476 in Florence, Republic of Florence. He hopes to gain Ezio's abilities through the Bleeding Effect so he can aid the Assassins.Review: Yeah, the storyline is this is superior to AC1 by like 1000, they really took the time and pumped up the story, adding history to the massive expansive world you can explore, yeah you learn stuff (if you take the time to read the tidbits) about Florence and the other massive worlds you explore. This go around you have puzzle solving - which is right up my alley, you find secret glyphs which lead you to other puzzles and you have to solve them to get two seconds of video that you don't quite understand - I'd say until the end, but even after the end i was still confused, w/e it was fun. OH and the Templar lairs, yeah i was ALL about the Templar lairs, there was usually no one to kill, but you had to climb around tomb raider style and so I was in gaming heaven - it was very challenging, but worth every step of the way. The money handling in this game was very cool concept, I like how you can buy collectibles, like the paintings, and the armor and of course your weapons. being able to buy your health was cool too, even though I didn't like that they changed it so radically from the first game, but I grew to love it. eventually. Overall this was a great game, I enjoyed it from start to finish, and is definitely re playable, the story never gets old, and neither does shanking baddies.
Likes: The graphics rock, the climbing around on buildings, the introduction of Leonardo and his inventions! STORY STORY STORY!!!!
Dislikes: I'll get back to you on this one, I can't think of anything bad to say.
