First off, there's an Assassin's Creed 2 teaser site and video up now. ANIMUS, the page is titled. Go watch that first.
Okay, so there's no game play images or footage. Sorry. Just mysterious imagery. What do you all make of the morphing Leonardo Da Vinci-type sketch drawings? Looks Italian, at least, I think it has some ties to our earlier rumors we ran about a Venice setting for the game, don't you? Wings and concealed arm weapons? Interesting.
Also, as far as the teaser page goes, click that "A" thing on the side -- it brings up a webcam interface for you to play around with. Fun. Unfortunately, that's about all you get for now.
Want more? I think there's a pretty good chance of Assassin's Creed 2 being the cover story for the next issue of Game Informer. We'll get the lowdown in about ten days.

I felt it was a great game, though understandably, many found it to be repetitive. Here's a shameless plug about my criticisms of the game.
It's worth it for cheap, but the problems everybody had with it (repetitiveness/shitty ending) are all so true.
Bunnyrabbit2 tells us that if one has a webcam the flash asks you to display the logo available in the PDF (seriously). It unlocks some images, evidently.
Indeed. I just did it. You have to print the symbol's PDF, and the webcam "scans" it. Then you get a nifty 3dy render of Altair's arm. Check it out.
Didn't bother printing. Just pointed my webcam at the PDF

Let's hope Assassin's Creed 2 fixes all of that.
I'd love to see a more robust set of options for each mission more in the lines of Hitman and Thief, including building interiors to allow for such variety.
The game is bound to be great if it has actually relevant sidequests and some randomized openworld activities.
MAKE IT SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO LISTEN TO FIFTEEN MINUTES OF GODDAMN EXPOSITION EVERYTIME YOU BOOT THE GAME UP.
In this day in age, to have a sandbox game that doesn't allow you to just jump into the world (even after you've beaten the game), is absolutely ridiculous. Assassin's Creed was not great, but the running around aspect of it was pretty fun. Too bad you had to sit through BORING ASS DIALOGUE YOU'VE ALREADY HEARD everytime you just want to do some freestyle running.
Bullshit, Ubisoft. Bullshit.
I suppose if they just put a game inside of this virtual history simulator, it might be worth playing. But it's going to take a lot of convincing: I bought my copy of the original for £10 and I still feel ripped off!
As for AC2 I'm looking forward to it has the first left on such a cliffhanger... although I have tried to decipher the codes that were hidden at the end.
