Customer Reviews for Ubisoft Assassin's Creed 2 (Xbox 360)
Ubisoft Assassin's Creed 2 (Xbox 360)
In Assassin's Creed II, you will be able to perform missions when you want and how you want in an open-ended world that brings back free-running and adds elements such as swimming and even flying to the adventure. Follow the chronicles of Ezio as he works to take down the Templar order in Renaissance Italy. Perfect your skills to become a master assassin where you brandish new weapons, learn to disarm enemies then use their weapons against them and assassinate enemies using both hidden blades. Discover a living, breathing world where every character is an opportunity for the player. Blending in with the crowd is easier, and working with in-game characters provides ample rewards but can also lead to surprising consequences.

Review 1 for Assassin's Creed 2 (Xbox 360)
What is the fuss about

I cannot figure out what all the excitement and excellent reviews were about with this game. The story was about something you would expect from Dave Brown (e.g., Templars, Catholics, bad linear puzzles), the graphics were just so-so, and most importantly the game play was abysmal. Many, many controls to learn…but not really. Just chose a couple, stick with them and Ta Da, game over – where is the vaulted combat variety? The control implementation also results in feeling like you are watching the game not playing. Non responsive – yep that’s the word. The AI and gaming ruleset is baffling. Don’t knife someone as that’ll get you a bad rep, but it is okay to pick guards up and drop them off the roof onto other guards. No one cares if you kill folks as long as you do it in a public fashion. Yech… This was disappointing. Exceptionally disappointing.

This game has a mix of historical events, Italian culture, conspiracies, action, blood, guts and gore.
If you like games where your in control and there is always a mission to complete, then you will never get bored of this game. The special effects are great and the story line is well constructed. You can even learn different methods of becoming the ultimate assassin. Anyone playing this game would be pleased.

It was a Christmas gift for my son. He seems to enjoy playing it. I was given a list of games he would like to chose from by him, so it would be unfair for me to say it was a fantastic game go out and buy it immediately. He usually only chooses games that are in the upper tier of games so I think it would be safe to say most guys would like it.

Assassins Creed 2 > Assassins Creed 1

If you LOVED Assassins Creed 1 then you'll also probably LIKE Assassins Creed 2. Assassins Creed 1 blew me away. I feel it set the standard for how all future 3rd person "sandbox" rpgs should be formatted on several levels. Unfortunately, In my opinion this game came out 1 year later than it should have. Alot can happen in the world of entertainment in 1 year let alone 2. The gaming community evolves slightly faster than the speed of bandwidth. There were many 3rd person rpgs that entered the next generation console gaming community after the first Assassins Creed that left this game's arrival with a somewhat bland taste in my gaming pallet. Plenty of variations to the initial game play format were satisfying and enthralling and also kept this game current with today's rpg community's next generation console tastes, but the symmetrical, pungent, and thought provoking impact caused during the first game's story plot's unraveling to climax was not quite as present in this game. The story was dull and ordinary in the beginning and then got more interesting as it progressed, but never really seemed to captivate and excite me outside of a "completionist" level throughout its duration, although it did succeed in ending in a manner that built anticipation towards the 3rd Assassins Creed video-game, but having arrived 1 year later than it probably should have caused its overall plot impact to be somewhat shallow, almost predictable, and slightly exhausted (past its prime). All in all this game was plenty of fun and still possessed a vast gameplay improvement from the first game, but maybe its just asking/looking for too much from this and future games in this franchise to have as great an impact as the 1st part of this saga did in 2007.

This game is very fun and addictive. I didn't think I would enjoy the game as much as I did but it is very fun. I enjoy the climbing and running on roof tops in the game. The game is long. The only thing with the game that may disappoint some is that there is no online play but even so the game is a must buy.

A game thats very fun and addictive. Fixes most of the flaws that the first game had. Not sure why it was so much cheaper online and new than in the store, but you cant beat this game for under $25.

I'm normally a hardcore fan of shooters, but Assassin's Creed 2 intrigued me. I picked it up curious and came away thrilled.
First off the story relies too much on the "carrot on the stick" ploy, but the voice acting and complete backstory helps pick up the slack. The gameplay is the real meat of the game; the free running is smooth, incredibly lifelike, and incredibly satisfying as you jump across the sloping rooftops of Venice. The combat is, unfortunately, a little on the soft side. The enemies are moronic but agressive enough for you to actually pay attention, and gives you plenty of oppurtunity to experiment with the plethora of moves, weapons, and gear that you unlock throughout the course of the game. The economic system in the form of the villa is a nice touch as well, and the side missions, while lacking variety, are nonetheless entertaining. The presentation is phenomenal; while texture popping is a problem, being able to scale Renaissance era cathedrals, weave through lifelike Venice and Florence, and meet historical figures like Niccolo Machiavelli and Rodrigo Borgia (i.e. Pope Alexander VI) never gets old.
Anyone who's looking for something original in gaming should definitely look into Assassins Creed 2. It has its problems, but at the end of the day, its attention to detail and unique brand of gameplay are what will keep you engrossed in the game. Nothing is true, everything is permitted. :)

So good it hurts, Assassin's Creed II improves on the original's great formula with improved combat, storytelling, and graphics. If you liked the original game or games like Prince of Persia, ACII is a must.

This is really a good game series, and if you didn't finish or even try AC1, you can still enjoy AC2 without worry.
AC2 is a very image intensive and beautiful environment, and quests and weapons have improved. There are more enemies, more tasks and side quests, and much more to see.
I awaited this game release with joy and when it came out I was very impressed. I can't believe the price has already fallen to less then $30.00, because I would still pay 49.99 for it today.
Give it a try, If you love wide open spaces and scavenger hunt type games, you will love this.

I was anxious to play this game, I beat the first one and enjoyed it very much. Then waited for the second one to come out so i could continue the story. I am happy with the game, but sometimes your character just randomly does what he wants, like climbing things or jumping off when you dont want. But overall a Great game.

The first Assassin's Creed game was simply AWESOME, with the cliffhanger ending it left us fans dying for more. Well, thank God we god more. Assassin's Creed 2 is amazing, story is great, graphics are stunning, game-play is phenomenal. The ending is yet another cliffhanger, and leaves us wanting yet another sequel! CAN'T WAIT FOR ASSASSIN'S CREED 3!!!
