Have a sneaky Assassin's Creed 2 leak photo

Would you like eleven seconds of footage that is of no use to you whatsoever? Of course you do. People love getting things early, even if it's a low-quality version of something better that they were going to see anyway, so here's a tiny little bit of Assassin's Creed 2, as found on Youtube.

As you can see, it's got running in it. And jumping too, plenty of jumping. There's even a bit of climbing too, if you look really carefully. For a short teaser, this video has it all, right?

Hit the jump for the best/worst eleven second of your life. It's not even worth Ubisoft's time to remove it from Youtube, really. 

[Thanks, Bart]

Really looking forward to this game. I've got a good feeling that they've fixed some of the tedium in the first. I'm no Michael Pachter, but I can make bizarrely unsubstantiated predictions as well.

I swear that just made AC2 look like just a marginally prettier version of the first...

Its 1st on the my list of most anticipated games of this year.
Then COD MW2
and then Mass Effect 2.

The video looks okay, but not better than the first AC at all. First, the music sucks. And second, the footage is probably not even in-game anyway, so that makes this game actually look pretty bad.
I'm still looking forward to E3 a lot though, mainly because I hope that BG&E2 is going to make a surprise appearance...
Also, thanks for posting this. XD

How can ANYONE say ANYTHING, be it positive, be it negative, about this video? It shows nothing but a short sequence of a crude cinematic. I fail to find an adequate adjective to it and people are praising ad hating. 50% of it was a guy climbing an arch(which, admittedly, composed equals 50% of the predecessor. I kid) and the other 50% a guy falling. It's not in-game, it's not even ready as a freaking video.
Anyways, I trult believe UbiSoft will find a way to enrich the experience that the predecessor offered. And for the enriching part I thank Freefall. Whose name, ironically, composes 40% of the video in question

I see what the PR did thar.

It's called How to Dick-tease in 11 seconds. I think we have a new world record everyone!

I'm surprised that Altair ( or his clone) didn't break his legs when he dropped from that height.

It really surprises me how much people look forward to this game. After the first few - admittedly cool - hours, it was just the same thing over and over again. Ended up being one of the hardest games I've ever had to complete just through boredom.

Kris S - I guess people are excited because hopefully they will fix the issues with the first.

All of this is opinion except that its not in game but isn't that what teasers are?

Ubi seems to have a serious problem keeping things wrapped up these days BG&E mp AC2 but whatever 11 seconds of cutscene isn't anything to be excited about.

Um... that didn't reveal shit.
But i'm already hyped, so i guess it wouldn't make any diference.

PS: Why Ezio looks so much like Altaïr? I hope they have some in-game explication about this.

planned-out publicity stunts designed to look like leaks so that gamers drool over it?

I lived in Italy for three months, and I loved the first one (could have dealt without the whole time travel stuff), so I give this a thumbs up. Pumped to see where this game goes.

Hah, Ubisoft removed it from youtube. :P
They took the leaked files down as well...
But you can still watch the video here:
