  • Nice...
  • AWESOME!!! Cant Wait
  • looks good
  • i loved the first game and ill love this one too
  • looks as boring as the first to me
  • cant wait for this game it going to be mint
  • Then don't comment troll.
  • Sorry but am I missing something here....thought that was pretty lame to be honest. Was quite looking forward to playing this until I saw that, lol.
  • wow. tht looks pretty good. hopin to pic this up
  • looks a little better, i hope so anyway, I still duno weather to buy or rent this.
  • looks better then the first but i need proof that it isnt as repetetive before i think bout gettin it, o and the better not be collecting flag achievements
  • The action shots look like a combo of 2 games :D GTA meets Assassin's Creed I'm def gona buy this :D
  • Looks epic, loved the music.
  • beyond any of my expectations!? 5/5 100% awesome! just doesnt get much better inb4 mass effect 2
  • Nice Ambience in the video... Looking forward to this!
  • #7 Im pretty sure Im allowed to comment on whatever the hell I want Just becuase its different to your opinion doesnt make me a troll.....
  • Looks horrible.
  • Amazing.
  • i was looking forward to this, graphics looked crap in video, not sure if i'll get this on release, it would have to be better than whats shown so far for me to put down modern warfare 2 before the end of the year tbh
  • This game will be as amazing if not even more than the previous one.
  • He went, dare I say, midevil on them doods. Looks good. Like others have said though, hoping it's not as repetitive as the first. The story did help the first immensely though. I'm sure this one will do the first one's story justice.
  • rent
  • That was beautiful, like your mother.
  • Such a badass trailer
  • For sure I'm getting the Master Assassin's Edition now. This game is gonna be awesome.
  • Looks sick. At least you can swim in this one...
  • Locations look good but found the first game very boring so hopefully it will be better second time around.
  • Just pre-ordered this cannot wait! Black Edition FTW!:d
  • At #5 u SUCK
  • so are there now black and white editions? confused... but the game looks awesome!
  • The music doesn't fit AC but its still gonna be awesome
  • Lol, Idk about the techno background in the video, but... wow, and I was impressed in the beginning! He freakin killed a guy with a broken halberd! Those kinda dirty fighting moves never translated from film to gaming! If that's more than just a situational cutscene or something... freakin' awesome! I probly had better put the cash down on the Limited Edition, soon! Looks like this one will be flying out of stock fast.
  • GREAT pick for music.
  • lookds really good can't wait
  • LMFAO at #29 grow a pair and deal with the fact people dont like the same shit you like
  • woooooooooooo 34th =/ OT ass creed epiiiiic !
  • The story was the main reason I loved the first one. So yeah, can't wait. Also, horrible music selection. And this is coming from an electronica junkie.
  • That music sucks but the trailer looks awesome!
  • Awesome looking forward to this.
  • looks good, hopefully will get on release
  • Hopefully this doesn't let me down as the first one did.
  • As everyone said, great trailer. can't wait to play. And #33 +1 : Justice is a good pick.
  • Hopefully they will have more than 4 things to do over and over and over and over again like the first one.... video did make it look cool though
  • It looks great. But that music was a little cheesy for my tastes, haha
  • The two person kill at the end is sweet.
  • The devs actually said that each assassination will have unique information gathering missions. Some you will even know who and where the target is, you just have to figure out how to get inside. I really liked the first one, but it did get a little mundane around the 3rd assassination. So I'm just happy they mixed it up. Glad they upgraded the combat system too.
  • the camera angles make it hard for me to believe that the actual game will look like this i thought the techno was the best part of the video. ha
  • The music was awesome... for the first 30 seconds. Then it fell out of sync with the gameplay. And the overuse of the two-bladed stealth kill is rather annoying. I'd rather see a vid of the dude climbing an insanely tall tower and then jumping off into something other than a stack of hay. But, still, the game looks alright, albeit nothing spectacular.
  • nice bajs
  • lol @ 35 Yeah, you are so not a troll. lol If you don't like something simply don't comment whatsoever, that sounds like something a troll would do instead of something a troll wouldn't. Usually ignorant people like you are found in PC forums, you could free trolling at Action Trip where people hate on everything and still type their comments on it, i have a feeling you'll be right at home. But, for now get used to people telling you, that you are indeed a dick and you have no life other than posting in places you obviously don't like. So, in other words I am in agreement with 7 29 if you don't know how to read.
  • Can't wait!
  • Ezio looks like micheal scofield from prison break.
  • It can be as repetative as listening to people moan about the price of XBL games and I'll still buy it.The first was heaven to play.
  • Looks good, definitely one of the better games of 09. To be honest though, I'm more interested in game such as MW2, Borderlands, and ODST so I'll be occupied!
  • i wouldnt mind being killed by Ezio or Altiar, think of it, it would kinda be cool and an honor
  • hot haha
  • wow looks frigin immense, if i had to guess a GOTY I'd say this !
  • I'm confused now. There's a black, white AND regular edition?
  • Love The Song...LUV JUSTICE!
  • I 100% no. 1 and now looking at this i'm going to try and 100% the 2nd cos this looks to be shaping up as one of the best games this year
  • looks good, but not a buy for me...the combat looks too botchy
  • Looks awesome. :)
  • Looks really good, can't wait #35....do you have a complex?
  • SIIIICK cant wait for this to come out
  • nice but i never get special editions anymore, the game looks fucking SICK !!! i hope not to see glitch flags anymore 1k as soones i start playing
  • too bad ill still be playing MW2 when this comes out
  • looks like batman arkham asylum
  • I'm sexually aroused right now. Is that weird? Oh well, I loved the first one so much I didn't even really mind getting all those flags. It was my first 1000/1000.
  • Sweet, and at the previous poster....yeah it's wierd :P
  • immense. I loved the first one and im looking forward to this. I like the song but it doesnt go with the trailer
  • @50: Get over yourself, he didn't come in with the intent to say "OMG AC2 SUCKS" No he probably had some interest, watched the video and thought it was boring(IN HIS OPINION). It's sad how people can't accept opinions aside from their own... @68: Congrats on the 1000/1000 in AC
  • mmmmmmmm looks tasty =)
  • That song was awesome! Sounds a bit like Justice to me... anyone know who it is?
  • It look a lot better then the first one for me!
  • Uhmm WTF is up with the music? Doesn't match the game at all.
  • Looks awesome!
  • terrible trailer for a great game.
  • going to be a epic game
  • It is beautiful such joy
  • It clearly states at the beginning of the video that it's an 18, yet a guy gets a spear in his face and he doesn't even bleed. The music was crap too. BUT... i loved the 1st, shame this trailer didn't excite me as much as the other previous videos (apart from the 2 man aerial takedown - that was awesome)
  • im going to bye this and play it all day
  • #73, you got it. The music's 'Genesis' by Justice.
  • I'm buying this just cause the fact that I have the 1st one but it does it look a bit bland. . . . the double air assassination looked cool and the breakage of the spear was even more epic
  • Didn't really like the trailer, but I loved AC1, so this is a must play for me.
  • Looks great!!!
  • If you get to listen to that groovy music while assassinating bitches, thats a good enough reason for me to play. ^_^
  • @35 lmao dude, u say you dont like this game, but you sure did stick around to reply to your posts.... like actually, you make no sense at all, if you dont like something, just say you dont like it (im fine with you opinion) but why are u still here? lol
  • @5 i agree that the first one was very boring, doing the same thing over and over?? Hoping this one will be different
  • Sweet! Going to be amazing!
  • Looks better than the first one, still not that excited about it though, will stil end up getting it.
  • @82 - Thanks for the song name, I thought it was Justice from the awesome synth-bass work. Youtube time for me.
  • Looks sick, can't wait, have The Master Assassin's Edition pre-ordered! I won't be playing MW2, but this and DA: O!
  • hopefully it's not as repetitive as AC1
  • this game looks awesome, just hope theres not tons of flags to collect this time around, that got tedious on the last one
  • For anyone that doesn't know, that was a song by justice ( the guys that did D.A.N.C.E.) and tbh i have no idea why it was playing but it really worked well :-) looking forward to the game even more now.
  • Thank you Zander because I was about to ask that question. This game will be legit. Ubisoft knows the first one was a disappointment because of the repetitiveness. If you watch any of the showcase videos they made it clear that it won't be repetitive and there will be many different ways to go about your assassinations. AC1 could have been amazing, they won't mess up again this time. I just wonder what happens to Desmond. But damn I won't want to put down Modern Warfare 2
  • It looks beautiful I just hope it's not as repetitive as the first and that they have added some variety to the game.
  • the first game was awesome il def check this out
  • SICK!!! cant wait for the double blades
  • Pretty good trailer. I thought the music fit nicely.
  • I don't know why, but him swinging around the corner with the hanging plant was my favorite part. I'm gonna have way too much fun with that.
  • Some of the little things in this video were just awesome. Like how his polearm got split in half and he looked at it for a second like "wtf?" then just stabs the guy anyways.
  • Damn! looks good defo getting the collector's edition. Kudos on the music too !
  • why do so many people think this looks bad? he jumped off a building and stabbed two guys in the head, and killed a dude after he broke his halberd
  • Sweet Mother of God. Duel knives. I must have this.
  • OMG i so cannot wait to get this
  • awesome trailer now if only the black edition was available in the states =/
  • Yeah I loved the first one I am hoping this will be good as well, Anyway I cant wait!!!
  • Secks.
  • Great...but what's with the song?
  • The first one was amazing and this looks to be even better! I can't wait! As soon as the song started i was like no way they're actually using Justice...haha. I 1000/1000 the first assassin's creed I will have a lot of fun doing the same for this.
  • I loved the first one but agreed with everyone who thought it got repetitive. This looks like all those repetitive aspects could be banished with all the new content. This, along with Splinter Cell: Conviction and PES 2010, is the game im most excited about
  • Is that music the Scottish duo Hystereo? Damn sounds like it. Fuck yeah!
  • WOW, RUBBISH GRAPHICS, hahha NOT!! This looks awesome, cant wait. Odd choice off music tho, lol.
  • i am so pumped for this game. graphics are awesome, ability to climb literally anything and explore is awesome and they have fixed the slightly monotonous side quests from the first...wow, pre-ordered and salivating over this :)
  • this game is gonna rock like the first. cannot wait.
  • Nice intro, makes you know what age your in, and the white edition is also a cool, is it the same as the black edition?
  • Assasins Creed: San Andreas by the sound of the music
  • This is probably the biggest game of the year for me. Couldn't get enough of the first one. And I was stoked to hear Justice there, nice.
  • Waste man defo getiiin this sickhead game =D
  • yeah, thats one fickin sweet video. that music was catchy too. but, i already at this pre-ordered from gamestop anyways, now i want it even quicker! and anyone know whats different about this "white" edition than the "black" one?
  • Ahh waited such a long time for this, just need to hang on a little bit more. Definately picking this up, loved the first one, just hope it's not as repetitive and theres no collecting flag achievements!
  • The black edition has more in game quests than does the white edition. For those in the states, the Master Assassin's edition looks very similar to the white edition and is available for pre-order exclusively at Gamestop. It will cost you $79.99, and gets you the Ezio statue, an artbook, a DVD, and 2 extra in game quests. (One of which is a bonus for pre-ordering either edition, the other is exclusive to the Master Assassin edition.) Hope this helps clear it up a bit.
  • Oh and to clarify further, the black and white edition are the UK versions, not available in the US.
  • Lol, the music made him him seem like some random bad ass pimp :P Looks good, I'll be getting it for sure. HAve to find out what happens after that eeerrr.. interesting ending to the last one.
  • I wonder what are achievement going to be....
  • Reminds me of the GTA IV trailer with that music.
  • Oh man, nice trailer. Can't wait.
  • Pretty damn nice !
  • Looks very cool, pre ordered, just waiting for Halo 3 ODST release now:D
  • i really wanted it not to be repetative and boring. You can see the other gaurds or whatever standing there watching their friend get all fucked up by an assassin and do nothing but wait for their turn. That is the dumbest concept for combat in any game. How can you not get tired of it?
  • This game is so Pre-Ordered lol i love the new assasination styles and the free running seems to have been improved to
  • Justice FTW
  • it looks the same as part I wich was good, but not a high replay value
  • I like the games and am excited to play it. just that video didnt do any justice for me was really boring...
  • Thanks mephisto22, appreciate the clarification. So, in North america, its the master edition, and overseas its the white/black edition? I'm from canada, its not a big deal, but I would like to know for sure.
  • FUCK YA whats the music called ???
  • Wow that looks really good. It's also nice to see assassins have learned how to swim. I think I will be buying a lot of games in early 2010!
  • wow thats an awesome trailer though they could have picked a better song lol
  • Damn, they delayed this game by 3 days (it's now being released on the 20th of November). Looks amazing,
  • lol, love the music in this game. still looks like an awesome game, definitely second best of '09, behind MW2 of course.
  • Comment #5 its because your a fucking pussy ass cunt..!!
  • @142 - #5 is entitled to his opinion, he is entitled to comment what he likes. Atleast he watched the trailer despite disliking the first and he commented on the trailer whilst you resorted to swearing at someone for sharing their opinion on the game, it's not like it affects your gaming experience on the game. Anyway the game better not have any flag collecting lol.
  • I've been waiting for this game for so long :)
  • The music reminded me of GTA...Thought that was tommy vercetti for a second....
  • @59: Glad to see a justice fan, cause justice is probably one of my favorite house artists. I was suprised to hear them play Genesis.
  • oh man i have to wait longer to get it
  • #5 is right. This looks even worse then Assassins Creed 1. Come on.. Guns? They just ruined a totally crap and boring game already.
  • gotta love montreal!
  • Best game out this year. ODST won't be able to hold a candle to this, the only thing that could be better is MW 2.
  • awesome song....
  • @123 Yep that is exactly what the Master Assassin Edition is, nothing more than the White Edition with the GameStop exclusive map added. I just wish that the MA Edition was more like the Black Edition than the White Edition, but at least Ubisoft decided to give N. America an CE even though it was more of an after-thought than a planned CE.
  • pretty beast
  • the first AC1 was brilliant in my point of view the graphic's were amazing the gameplay the fighting the straggler's , collectible's boss's architecture now in this game they have took all of that to a new level but i won't buy the game :-( i love assasin's creed 1&2 but the main reason i won't play this is because of the flying the flying put's me off this. Don't let this put you off the game though for most realistic game of the year i would have to say this win's by far.... the multiple weapon choice the fact it is based in Italy and your inventor is Leonardo Da Vinci which make's it more cool :-P so for this game i will have to give it out of 10 8/10 for awesome graphic's architecture , realism , probably will never get boring that is until you get 1000/1000 lol Im Done :-).
