It is no secret that I am a very big fan of Assassin's Creed, and you can imagine my excitement when we saw all new gameplay for Revelations at gamescom. I was even more excited when we saw gameplay of Altair!
In between jumping up and down with excitement, I manage to ask about the new gameplay elements (such as bomb crafting), how gamers end up playing as Altair, and what the hell is going on with Desmond?

After playing AC2 and ACB I think the series is in danger of becoming a little like the plot of Lost- it seems like even the writers have no real idea what's going on. So, hopefully, Revelations will set up some sort of conclusion, because if it doesn't come soon I'll just stop caring.
The playing in Desmond's coma dream titbit is interesting Alot of people (myself included) theorized that Desmond was in fact an ancestor and you were actually someone in an animus further in the future. But Coma is a near death state and surely wouldn't be accessible through animus...
Yes, a mention or a scrap of information... Anything actually it can be used when talking about cakes for instance. Do you not use that word where you're from?

Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
That aside, this is the biggest game of the year for me. Well, besides Uncharted 3 and Sonic
titbit?
Gah, I need to finish up Brotherhood still. Love this series though.
