Review: Assassin?s Creed Brotherhood

[Pseudonym2]

Is 360 multiplayer local or online only? You kind of implied both.

Still doesn't interest me much; I've read up on the real assassins, and I detest them with every ounce of my being.

My store had a midnight release for AC:B, which I was there for, but I had my eyes on Sonic Colors instead. Worth every bit of the 29.99 I spent.

I went through an hour-long bus ride to pick up my copy. (The store I reserved it was near my old house, but FAR away from my new house, and the bus routes from my campus to that store ony met at a single point, so... yeah, it was my fault, really.) I mean, by incredible luck, my classes for today were canceled, so I got it even earlier. It was like a sign. Can't wait to start playing!

Sweet, sounds like something I'll enjoy quite a bit.

on an unrelated note/ Y'all got this review out FAST!!!!
didn't this game JUST hit shelves?

 

[DustyDrB]

My copy just arrived! Oh, I haven't been this excited about a release this year since Mass Effect 2.

 

[Mr.Pandah]

Bah, I'd buy this in a heartbeat if I had the money...but that is not the case at this point. Damnit...why did I have to buy that car?! haha

Steve, critical question. Can you unequip armour in this one? Good review by the way, glad to hear it's not a disappointment.

(P.s. Damn you Americans and your Brotherhood release date being today, not in 3 days time...)

 

[Steve Butts]

When I tried to comment here at twelve it said the file had been deleted. Fucking servers >(
Anyway, Steve, you talk too loud.

Maybe your speakers are too loud.

BAM!

Waitaminute, is this game out in America NOW!? God a fucking dammit!!! Come on Friday 19th!!!

 

[Unhappy Crow]

Tempting, but multiplayer is the reason why I'm steering away from this game. That and this game is out a year after AC II.

 

[Distorted Stu]

Does it expand on the AC2 ending? Or is it just a sort of "look at Ezio's life" game. I want to know more about Adam and Eve etc.

 

[WaysideMaze]

I would also like some of that fantastic hay...would probably make lovely bedding..

Great review, have the game on pre-order anyway.

 

[Wolcik]

somehow upgredable team is appealing to me XD

 

[duchaked]

didn't think I'd wanna play AC again but...yea I do now that Brotherhood is out lol

 

[Netrigan]

Anyways, I've been replaying the second game lately and remembering why I loved it so much (except for the DLC. There's a reason that got left out. A lot more polish should have been put on that). If this is an improvement on that, I'm definitely going to enjoy it. Hopefully it comes in the mail soon.

I'm not sure I can give any sort of reasonable criticism of the DLC because I bought it while I was heading down the homestretch for the main game (hoping to extend my enjoyment of the game a bit more) only to find out that I *had* to play them before finishing the rest of the game.

But it's more plot complication than actual plot. Leaving it off doesn't affect the game in the slightest... and adding it seems more like plot padding than anything else, but that might just be my annoyance with having my grand finale postponed due to DLC.

 

[Xyliss]

Mine's on pre-order and on it's way to my house as we speak, should be here friday morning and I can't wait.

 

[Jon Shannow]

Can we replay memories in this one like the first?.
That was one of the things i hated not being in the second, i went over and over the assassinations in AC1, trying to get the perfect kill.
