I'll keep this short tonight because I'm running behind anyway. I only have one problem with Assassin's Creed 2 (seriously Jim, 4.5?) and that's that with my work hours I've had relatively little time to actually play it since getting the Black Edition (sexy box, with black PS3 banner so as to not disturb the sexiness) delivered on Friday. So in between flicking through the beautiful Conspiracy Book and gazing in awe at the brilliant Master Assassin Ezio figure that have more than justified the extra £30 I've spent practically every spare moment playing the game. I can't get enough, every chest needs to be found, every feather tracked down, I genuinely want every weapon proudly displayed in the villa armoury but most of all, I want to just sink into this incredible world that the PoP team have created. I'll be going back there once I'm done with this I assure you, I highly recommend you come visit as well.

I'm loving AC2 as well. It does a really good job with the simple things. Poisoning a guard and watching him flail around in agony, cutting his own men before they back off...pretty nice if you ask me.

More like Ass4.5sin's Creed 2, lol

I'll agree with Jim in that I think the Desmond parts are a bit silly, and should either be more important or not be there at all. That aside, I think some of his other complaints seem pretty minor, but since he has commented a bit in the original review and gave his reasons regarding the score, I won't argue with it.

Instead, I'll take the time to give these 'caps a fap.
MrSadistic's Destructoid Blog
I can't say fo sho if AC 2 deserves a high score, but I will say that Jim Sterling's reviews are mainly here on Dtoid to lower a hyped game's score over at Meta Critic.

It's the truth.
