hahaha that British guy annoyed me...but hmmm gee I can't see why Yahtzee likes him either lol
nice to hear he likes Ezio, but yeah eventually they'll need to move on (as much as I like Ezio too)
I'm still waiting for this game to be available for Blockbuster's online rental

Always found AC to be quite good in the respect of offering badass stealth maneuvers and a wide range of free roam that ties in well to the storyline and characters...
... sadly no matter what my friends say I will always find it shit in the respect that once you do something cool the first time it isn't fun the next 10 or 12 gagillionth times...
... Especially when the difficulty is then upped and the bosses become psychic.
Lol'd at that last line in the credits... It is hard to get around wearing the contents of a laundry basket isn't it?

I caught that "obscure movie reference of the week", Yahtzee. Yes, some Americans have also seen "In Bruges", though it's existence has gone largely unnoticed by the general populace. 
Or maybe the almost direct correlation between your confessional assassination joke and the scene of Raymond murdering the priest are entirely coincidental...in which case, bravo.

Great review yahtzee but...
I don't understand him saying desmond miles is bland and has no personality:
-he's occasionally playful with lucy and has a growing attachment to her also
-he makes light sarcasm and jokes to lighten up the dark situation
-it is hinted that he is starting to become more facsinated with the hallucinations he gets from the animus
those sound like characteristics to me, but I agree that he's definitely not as well developed as ezio or any other characters. (or maybe i'm just not a good judge of storytelling)

Wrong. Living in a country doesn't automatically make you a citizen of said country it makes you an expatriate (a citizen of your home country living temporarily/permanently in another country).theblackmonk90 said:
Anyway, your point was based on Yahtzee having a native Australian accent and the supposed ease with which he could fake a British accent. A point which is rendered entirely moot when you consider Yahtzee doesn't need to fake a British accent when he is British and already speaks in all of his videos with a distinctively English accent.
No hairs split here my friend, you were simply incorrect.
Ubisoft can expand on Ezio all they like, but he still isn't Altair.
Ezio may have better weapons and a bit more charm but somehow, he will never be as badass as Altair.
The only reason why the money is so unbalanced is because the weapons and armour cost fuckloads.
However, AC:B have done exactly what AC2 did and gave away the best armour in the game for free so the money for the armour is made redundant, so you get enough money to fill a swimming pool with and then some. In fact, Ubisoft should have included a swimming pool at the villa so you could do exactly that.

Glad to see he liked Shawn so much. xD Though not completely surprising. They have some vast similarities. I don't know if the attitude was based off of Yahtzee, though I wouldn't be surprised at all if it was, but I do know that his looks and his voice are based off of Danny Wallace.
Still, I can agree with this review quite a bit. I loved the game to death, but even I am willing to nod or cringe at some of the less... desirable parts. (Like how damn long it takes for you to even recruit your Brotherhood. OMG. :|)

ah man...I thought I was sick of Assassin's Creed after playing 2 to like 150% but then I started working on AC1 (horrible at first but once past that it's fine)...and now Brotherhood is $20 off at GameStop...errghh oh all right (it's what I get for being too busy to do parkour in real life)
LOL true thatMr. Bojangles said:
I just bought this game a week ago and have been spending way too much time playing it since. Wish ACII had been more like this. Should not have listened to this review or the opinions of those who said it should have been DLC. Was completely worthy of being its own game. I found the story for both ancestor and Desmond to be more interesting in this game than it had been in the past.
Biggest complaint I have is that some of the 100% criteria are ridiculous given how far you have to backtrack to retry. I'm sure the asshole who put the 1 vs 2 tank battle in a confined space at the end of a 10-minute memory and required us to get through it without taking a hit is a Templar.
