Another game that E3 has me excited over. >.< Actually, this was probably the game that made me the most excited out of everything that they showed. That and Far Cry 3 (if you didn't watch the trailer and demo for that, then you missed what was probably one of the coolest things at E3).
If the trailer wasn't enough to go crazy over, then the coverage on it was. Apparently, this is supposed to clear up just about EVERY question that we've had since Assassin's Creed 1 as far as Ezio, Altair, and Desmond go (hence the name), so that they can start off on a clean slate for AC 3 (which is confirmed).
That by itself was enough to get me pumped. The AC story is just great, and to finally get a few more answers than questions will definitely by a nice change. Anyway, from what I saw from the demo, the graphics are, of course, as great as ever, and the gameplay looks even better. It was mostly the small stuff that made me happy. Like being able to assassinate while hanging from a ledge.
Although, one thing did kind of annoy me. Did anyone notice when his hidden blade got knocked off? I think it was pretty obvious what they implied there. Another reason to have to start off with only half, if that, of your complete arsenal and have to gain back the weapons. Dunno if we'll be seeing much of Leonardo, considering that we're in Constantinople now and the game is taking place in his later years where he was pretty much exclusively in Rome. =/
Anyway, I'm definitely looking forward to this one.
