Poll: ac2 or ac bro?

[General Twinkletoes]

Which assassins creed is better, ac2 or ac bh? Cause i'm looking for one to buy, already played brotherhood. I didn't really like the calling on assassins part, so that doesn't matter, and i've heard it's really buggy. So, which one do you prefer, and why?

If you already played brotherhood and arent fond of the recruits, your probly better off buying number 2, if for nothing else than its cheaper.

Brotherhood refines alot of the elements of number 2, but not enough to put it ahead under those circumstances.

i say, play AC 1, then AC 2, and AC bro...but thats just me, looking for a above average story with fun gameplay

but no AC bro seems like your doing alot of nothing essential to the plot. I think the gameplay for AC bro is pretty much the same as AC 2. But in AC2 you get 5 towns to explore all with different looks to them.
While in AC bro, you get a trillion side quests that you don't have to do, but if you don't you miss on a lot of gameplay. If you play AC bro, its probably for the multiplayer, which is really unique and fun. so i suggest both!

Well, Brotherhood it technically a better game, but it's funner to play it after playing AC2.

I can't decide which one to pick. The first Assassin's Creed was a good game with an interesting story and gameplay let down by being too much of a wordy story and the game got repetitive near the end. The second one was a lot better with so much to do and a great story that blew my mind when it ended. Brotherhood was more of the same (Which is a good thing) It had the same great story and gameplay, but I rarely used my recruits and I can't play multiplayer because Xbox live never works for me. Of course I still have to play all of the end game content of Brotherhood but I think I prefer Assassin's Creed 2 because Brotherhood didn't have the same mind blowing impact on me as the second game did. Still all three games are really good. I cannot wait to see how it ends.

Play them all, start with the first (but don't be completionist for the first - there's a lot of fluff & padding, which makes it seem more repetitive than it needs to be).
