Awesome trailer. I like the movement of the character, it looks quite free.

I guess I should start saving my money for the holiday season!

Game looks sick, will be picking this up day one for sure. Hopefully we get full control of the flying machine rather than an interactive cutscene.

It does look to me like they are controlling it, hopefully that's the case.

Yeah, the only part to me that seemed like a cut-scene was when they entered the area of the building to make the assassination. They showed the flying machine get shot by an arrow on fire which in turn caused it to land in an ideal spot on the building's roof. Now, maybe this is just one of the many scenarios that could have happened or it is the sole canned animation that will happen to every one during that mission.

Not that in the grand scheme of things it matters, just a little detail I noticed while watching the video. Either way, I don't care, it should be an excellent game.

I never tried the original Assisins Creed, though now I'm thinking I probably should. I've heard it's a great game, though I don't know how easy it will be to pull off combinations while using the keyboard and a mouse.. Ah well.

From watching the trailer, it looks like it'll be an awesome game, especially if you know the back story from the first game.

You only play it for the story really. It's very repetitive. And the combat is rather simple, you'd be able to master it on a PC easy. It's just about your timing and not about which buttons you press.

Hopefully cutscenes will be skippable, some I got bored to death and they characters are rambling on about What I already know.

Otherwise it's a good game and hopefully AC2 will be good too.
