I got the new Game Informer in the mail today, and there's an article about Brotherhood in it. Apparently we can expect a bit more from the Desmond side of the story. his new character design obviously has been done to make him look more like Ezio. Looking at some of the footage that Vaco Deus poster, i'm a bit dissapointed with the chatter between Des and Lucy. There's no flow or bounce to it. Get the feeling there trying to turn him into a Drake or Han Solo. He didn't really have that sort of personality in the first game, they did start to push this 2, it annoyed me there too. edit: Ezio Master Assassin Play Arts Figure . Looks better then the figure that came with the collectors edition.

Agreed re: Desmond Desmond doesn't need to be Drake. I don't like Desmonds new duds (just for continuity's sake) seeing as ACII and AC:B take place hours apart, did they make a pit stop? A - Hoodie is more segmented + red liner B - Tribal eagle shirt C - Tattoo Now, you can argue B and C were always there since for the first two games his hoodie was fully zipped and sleeves down.....but still. EDIT Yes, I know they changed Lucy, too but I don't really care about her. Also, with this recent change in style, as I mused in the ACII thread as to the current clothing of modern-day Assassins, I can say its safe to say the Assassin's robes DID boil down to just a hoodie

Assassins Robes were like Formal Hoodie, Desmonds still looks like a punk. I didn't give Lucy's change much of a look, but its seems she's put on a jacket.
And i suppose how long it took them to drive where to where they are. Some reason, i assume because of all the american accents in the cast, that the game took place (in the present day) in America. How long does it take to drive from the states to there new hide out? Besides, a throw away line from the start of the game can clear it up. I'm pretty sure his hoodie from 2 was different from the hoodie in the first game anyway.I was never sure if it was one in the first game or not. But that just might have been my shitty CRT display.

The Abstergo facility, Assassin's Hideout in ACII and Sanctuary in AC:B are actually in Italy
Abstergo facility had Italian signs in the parking lot
The hideout, if you look out the windows, the nearby building have roofs the same as Florence
And 'Cabin up north' AKA Sanctuary is in the ruins of Ezio's villa (Where you get Altair's armor in ACII)

Desmond is banned for having a cheap skin with lousy textures and looking like Ben Affleck on valium...

PS3 To Get Exclusive DLCIt annoys me when they announce DLC BEFORE the game comes out but that's the world we live in unfortunately. Its FREE so thats nice I'm sure it'll show up on 360 at some point. Nothing's really exclusive anymore

Oh, its so on. I was disappointed when AC2 didn't really contain any MGS reference. This is pretty cool though. I wonder what would happen if we can take that costume to the dye shop.

Wow, that manual is hilarious. Also, GAH! Had the ending ruined for me. I should've known better than to visit gameFAQS. Oh, well, there is no context to it so it doesnt matter. It'll still be a fun ride EDIT I hope AC doesn't become the Saw of the VG world kotaku.com/5690412/something-around-assassins-coming-in-2011

I could have sworn they said earlier this year that they weren't going to let that happen to the Creed Franchise, At the same time there was talk of Ubisoft pushing more of there titles into annual releases. But then again, it might be something like this that cause Patrice to leave Ubisoft.

They did say they were gonna wait a few years for III. Guess they changed their mind when the dumptruck full of money backed up to their HQ
