    Good story. However, the game still got issues. Controlling you're character can prove difficult at some time, Ezio dont always jump where you aim you're tombstick, and he often falls down from roofs unintended.

And whats enoid me the very most in this game, was that you can no longer choose between toggle or hold the L1 button (lock on target), as you could in AC1. But still a very enjoible game with tons to do and a very interesting and original story, where you can choose you're self how to sucseed in you're missions. The game can be repeatible, but only if you do all the sidequests, wich is boring, but if not if you mainly stick to the mainstory. It would be a stright up 10 if it where not for the sometimes clumsy controlls. Oh, and the graphics are good.… Expand

    Assassin's Creed 2 is a STUNNING game that improves over the original game in almost every way. It's so addictive and immersive that this is my #1 GOTY 2009 contender. Without a doubt one of the best 3rd person action adventures I've ever played.

    If you own both consoles, don't even think about buying the PS3 version. there are far less polygons, the textures are blurry and there is constant screen tearing. Also, the PS3 controller is less suited to the gameplay as it causes uncomfortable hand positioning for extended play. The 360's trigger and A button is a more natural feel with the tighter analog control.

    So many improvements have been made in this game. No longer do you have to those tedious side missions to completer you assassinations. There just part of the story, which isn't half bad if I may add. Ezio is a much more hilarious character than Altair was, especially when it comes to certain side missions.

    You have to play this game. If you thought the first one was too repetitive, don't assume this one is as well. The gameplay is rich with variety and the graphics are pretty damn good for a 360 game. Ubisoft really payed attention to detail . I've yet to see a game with this much content and history behind it. Finally a game that requires a bit of thinking. Thank you Ubisoft!

Gravity accounts for 99% of my deaths and 80% of my medicine vials. It's simply not fun. - Like AC, the game start-up is baffling. A loading bar to load another bar with a label "Loading" which loads the Ubisoft logo, then another loading screen to load the menu which allows you load your last saved game. Given the scarcity of options in the main menu (no multiplayer), why bother putting all these obstacles to get to the point?… Expand

    Sin duda uno de los mejores Assasins Creed en mi opinión, un gran inicio de la Trilogía de Ezio Auditore.

    - El Protagonista, de lo mejorcito, un protagonista que derrocha carisma, con el que compartes buenos y malos momentos, que ves crecer desde las calles de Florencia haciendo trastadas viajando por toda Italia en momentos épicos, tristes, alegres, románticos, sin lugar a dudas uno de los mejores protagonistas de los últimos tiempos.

    - La jugabilidad es buenísima, mejorando bastante la jugabilidad del Assasins Creed 1, mejora y aumenta los movimientos de Parkour y de escalada, también mejora la movilidad y movimientos a caballo y a nado, aumenta las posibilidades de esconderse, escapar y de asesinar.

    - El Combate es mas fluido aunque sigue siendo un sistema de combate facilillo.

    - La Banda sonora es brutal, ayuda mucho a tener una gran inmersión y te sabe cambiar acorde al momento para tenernos siempre metidos en la escena.

    - Gráficamente mejora mucho respecto al primero.

    - La historia no tiene desperdicio y resulta muy interesante.

    - Las ciudades son espectaculares, mucho mas que en el primer Assasins, se sienten llenas de vida, plagadas de monumentos y edificios históricos que te dan la impresión de estar dando un paseo por la Italia del renacimiento,

    This is one of the best games ever made. Nostalgia bias is real.
    Amazing atmosphere from the art style to the phenomenal soundtrack.
    Combat is fine but very dated and not great even in 2009.
    Parkour is relatively identical to AC 2007 but refined and the world is designed is a little less realistic but a lot more fun with updated features.

The player is truly engrossed into the life of Ezio in Renaissance Italy and he is very well portrayed through the story. My major issue with the game is that the combat system once understood is extremely simple and always the same. Enemies always attack one by one and their attacks can be easily dodged and/or countered. Although easy at times, the game is an excellent must-play because of its thrilling story and variety of quests and missions.… Expand

    The controls are a huge improvement and don't feel different from games like Black flag. The graphics hold up well for it's mildly aging state.
    The music is great, some are memorable but most just fit in so well with the game it all just blends together in a big immersive experience.

    The only complaint I have with the game is that it's too easy, especially if it isn't your first AC game. The combat is pretty much countering your opponent (which they made astronomically easier in this game) but it has enough other (albeit less effective) options available to keep it fun.

    We are starting our journey for revenge! But than, some interesting things happen. When game start, we are not an Assassin. We are stupid lmao. Than we take lessons from unexcepted peoples and thats also great. And, the most important thing of scenario, is the end. Thats really cool mate! Scenario feels better than first game. Because you are playing not copy paste missions lol.

    First game I can only remember 4 characters. Altair, Mentor, Robert and our last target. But, this game also fix this thing. I can remember bunch of characters. Ezio, Ezio's Family, other Assassins, our enemies, our friends. Thats really good. We have living city, and they are great part of game. I am really glad... We can buy armours and weaopons for Ezio. Thats all? No, You can buy medicine pouchs, poison pouchs and etc. You can feel Ezio's development! You are watching Ezio, growing up to man.

    Openworld and side missions are better than first game. You can feel, you are playing in a living city. Thives on roofs, escorts try to get some money. Everyone speaking each other and etc. Also, i like play with different cities. Thats cool! Openworld is really good.

    Side missions? They are also great! You can collect Codex pages, Assassin Seals (for Altair's Armor), you can watch "The Truth" (and this video is really interesting.). For watch a video, you need unlock 20 files! You need find 20 glyphs, and then unlock them with puzzles. Also, we have a castle named Monteriggioni, and u are building shops, and defence systems. You are earning money from there. Also, if u buy a weapon or armor or etc., the money you earn is increasing. That's why it becomes more important to develop Ezio.

    DESMOND CAN DO SOMETHING EXCEPT SLEEP, SPEAK AND **** ENTER THE ANIMUS! THATS GREAT! Desmond have 3 missions. Meh, he can do something. Thats good.

    Combat System is more arcade than first game. But still good. You still need block sometimes etc. You can still feel this.

    The same thing with combat system for parkour. You can feel you are climbing the towers, building. You need press 2-3 buttons still and this is great! Now? Game automatic climbing for you    … Expand

The story and narrative is one of the best ever made, and the character is so immersive. To conclude, i enjoyed it from start to finish im gonna give it a 9!… Expand

    A great improvement over the first game. More variety and a better story overall. Great setting and representation of Italy during The Renaissance. Considered by most to be the best in the series.

    Playing Assassin's Creed II for PS3 straight after finishing the first Assassin's Creed entry for the first time felt like I had left the tutorial sewer dungeons rusty grates behind me and entered into the beautiful and fresh unknown.

There are so many gameplay features that are introduced to you over the first 5 hours but you still get some more surprise gameplay sections later in the game. Running up and over rooftops is smoother/faster than before making the free run/parkour very smooth, though there are still some issues in regards to getting your character to do what you want him to do resulting in unwanted jumps to your death. The combat is vastly improved on all fronts including unarmed combat allowing for exciting fights with the city guards. Enemies now have a basic health indicator above their heads to help you keep track of how much damage you have done to each one which is a godsend during bouts with numerous angry men. Grabbing opponents can now involve head butting and kicking. Different weapon types are better for fighting certain guards. You can now fight with your hidden blade! And air assassinations are extremely fun to pull off. There is so much to this game it would take more than the allotted review character count for me to discuss it all but I like to keep things brief. With that said onto the next topic.

    No spoilers here with the story, but what I can say... coming from the super serious first entry, I was surprised to see/hear both serious themes and plenty of humourous scenes which on occasion had me laughing out loud. Gripping to the end but can be hard to keep track of character names and how many years have gone by since you have last seen them even with the ingame logbook entries. I wanted more all the time and the game kept on giving throughout my playthrough.

    The graphics are lush and look very detailed, with lots of characters on the screen at the same time. This is where we see the games most noticeable negative, like the first entry, the game shows us that it is not very well optimised for the PS3's hardware. Screen tearing and framerate is a bit grating when you view the Italian cities and towns from above or run through some of the larger open areas with lots of people walking about their day. And not too distant objects like trees and fences can suddenly pop into view. While these problems do not make the game unplayable they are certainly a distraction at times. In the beginning scenes I did feel some character faces looked out of proportion, like a certain ladies mouth. But otherwise overall the cities looked just as breathtaking as the other cities in the first game.

    I did not like the situation with DLC, the publishers took two sequences out of the late game and sold it to us as DLC. They even leave the gap in the sequence numbers to represent that you do not have the full game. I am pleased to say while both pieces of paid for content extend the game by a few hours and are just as entertaining as the previous 30 hours of the game experience (I 100% every game I play where possible) I consider the 'missing' story inconsequential.

    Overall a phenomenal experience, only slightly marred by a few poor decisions by the publishers/developers. If I had a choice I would give this a well deserved 88/100 but Metacritic only allow User Scores out of 10... so 9/10 will have to do. Looking forward to playing AC: Brotherhood to 100% completion soon if ACII is anything to go by.    … Expand

Requiescat In Pace, es la frase celebre que le dice a sus victimas de asesinato un nuevo antepasado en un nuevo periodo historico, que vivió en la Italia del Renacimiento, es la frase del celebre: Ezio Auditore da' Firenze, que significa descanse en paz, la historia inicia continuando la historia de Desmond Miles puesto que lo ayuda de escapar de Abstergo una empleada llamada Lucy Stillman que tras esacpar de Abstergo conoce a dos miembros de la orden de asesinos del presente que son: Shaun Hastings y Rebecca Crane que los tres lo meten en la version mejorada del animus, el animus 2.0. para que entrene para ser un asesino con los recuerdos de un nuevo antepasado en una nueva epoca historica que se llama: Ezio Auditore da' Firenze un joven Italiano de 17 años que vivio en la italia del Renacimiento que era un banquero común y corriente hasta que su vida dio un giro radical cuando mandan a ejecutar a su padre Giovanni Auditore y a sus dos hermanos: Federico y Petruccio a muerte debido a una conspiración contra ellos, y tras esto su tío Mario Auditore le cuenta que su padre era un miembro de la orden de los asesinos y lo entrenará para que el también sea un asesino mientras mata a los templarios que estuvieron contra su familia y les juró venganza hasta matar al principal complice, Gran maestre de los Templarios y el villano de esta historia: Rodrigo Borgia; la jugabilidad es el punto más alto del juego puesto que en el juego pasado era aburrida y repetitiva, aquí es todo lo contrario ya que es muy divertida y muy variada, ya tiene nuevas innovaciones y grandes cambios en la jugabilidad tales como: diferentes tecnicas de asesinato tales como asesinato aereo, que sirve para matar enemigos desde arriba, asesinato desde cornisas y asesinato desde escondrijos y además podemos tener dinero en florines para comprar cosas en las tiendas tales como: Herrero: para armaduras y armas, Medico: para recuperar tu salud y comprar medicinas, Sastres para mejorar las bolsas de tus armas y medicinas y cambiar el color de tu traje de asesino, y mercaderes de arte para comprar obras de arte, y no solo eso sino que podremos usar el dinero para reformar la viila donde vive Ezio como un alcalde o un político, además de que con el dinero poder contratar ladrones y cortesanas para que te ayuden con las misiones de sigilo, también puedes contratar mercenarios para que te ayuden en el combate, además de incluir armas nuevas tales como: la doble hoja oculta, la hoja envenenada, el cañon oculto, las bombas de humo, la capacidad de arrojar dinero y escapar con las bombas de humo, además del sistema de Notoriedad que sube cada vez que cometemos delitos por las ciudades y sirve basicamente para evitar que los guardias nos estén persiguiendo aunque por algun extraño motivo no sirve en los tejados ya que los guardias consideran delito estar por los tejados, y la notoriedad disminuye cada vez que arrancamos carteles de se busca, sobornamos a heraldos que dan las noticias, o matamos testigos, los controles son casi los mismos del juego pasado solo con algunas habilidades nuevas y botones nuevos tales como R2 para sacar el inventario de todas las armas del juego ya con las flechas puedes seleccionar las medicinas, cuando estamos en perfil bajo con Ezio no reza como Altair sino que camina más rápido puesto que Ezio se mezcla automaticamente con la multitud además de una funcion de robar a los cadavares para conseguir dinero y recoger sus cadaveres y armas y además de poder robar a civiles mientras caminamos con equis, además de nuevas habilidaades en el combate tales como: esquivar mejor, burlarte y desarmar, además de usar unas mecanicas secundarias tales como una carrera en carruaje en el camino a la Romaña, y usar unos de los inventos de Leonardo Da'Vinci que es la maquina voladora en una misión; en cuanto graficos es un aparatado que ha empeorado de su predecesor, ya que a pesar de que las ambientaciones de sus ciudades tales como: Florencia, Monteriggioni, San Gimignano, Forli y sobretodo y antetodo la de la Ciudad de Venecia, y exclusivamente en la misión final en Roma son unicas y espectaculares, no se puede decir lo mismo de los personajes ya que se ven tan falsos y perecen hechos de plastilina y es la peor de la saga; la banda sonora es otro Punto más alto del juego ya que tiene temas tranquilos pero llenos de emocion y filosóficos tales como: Venice Rooftops, Venice Escape, Night Mission in Venice, Leonardo's Inventions Pt.2 y sobretodo y antetodo el que se convertiria en el tema principal no solo de este juego sino de todos los Assassin's Creed el cual es: Ezio's Family; la diificultad es muy poca en el juego puesto a las gran innovaciones que dejó la jugabilidad puesto que hacen muy facil el juego; en conclusion Assassin's Creed 2 es una gran secuela que demuestran que las segundas partes se hicieron para mejorar y que segundas partes si son muy buenas.… Expand

Fui jogar os mais novos e era tudo uma merda, sempre tinha algum problema que incomodava e atrapalhava a gameplay inteira, seja história ou bugs. Mas o Assassin's Creed II foi quando eles tentaram acertar em tudo, e quase conseguiram. A história é envolvente, os personagens são carismáticos, o combate é balanceado e o parkour muito responsivo. O que mais me impressionou desse jogo é como o parkour mais simples pode ser muito melhor de se jogar do que aquele exibicionismo do Arno, que em todo movimento tinha que dar uma giradinha. Nesse jogo aqui você tá fazendo tudo o que você quer, tudo o que você faz no controle você realmente sente que é o que está acontecendo na tela, sem nenhuma ajudinha, enquanto nos mais novos (como Unity e Syndicate) você sente como se tivesse demorando demais pra fazer certas coisas e executar certos comandos. As únicas partes que eu acho que poderiam ter melhorado são certos aspectos no combate e as partes finais do jogo. Às vezes eu entrava em combate e ficava tipo "ah, denovo não" porque certos inimigos simplesmente só levam dano quando eles querem, parece não ter nenhuma forma de fazê-los ceder e isso acaba um pouco com o flow do jogo. Em relação a história, eu acho que depois da sequência 9 fica meio rushado, o pulo de uma época pra outra é muito grande e o maior indicativo disso é a barba do Ezio, as outras coisas continuam as mesmas e o caos se estabelece muito rápido pra nós, mesmo que tenha se passado mais de 10 anos, porque a gente não viu esses 10 anos. Mas mesmo assim o final me agradou, e o todo o desfecho fez sentido, muito brabo. A ambientação é foda e as músicas são de fuder.

What I did like is the world building after all these years that this game was made it's still very immersive with musicians on the street and the carnival celebrations and architecture it feels really like you are there.

    Pero en AS2 fue todo lo contrario, si, es el mismo tipo de mundo abierto, pero lo que me hizo disfrutarlo fue ese mundo tan vivo que tiene, claro la inteligencia artificial a diferencia de hoy en día es peor, pero es un juego del 2009, aún asi dio la sensación de mundo abierto vivo y el parkour es una genialidad hizo que el juego se me hiciera super divertido, jamás pensé decir esto pero me dieron ganas de platinarme un juego de Ubi, por eso el gameplay también es una maravilla y los gráficos también son una locura se notaba que en PS3 todo cambió.

    The best game in the series. Great plot, setting, upgrade system and puzzles. Probably the one game in the AC series that must be played.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This great game is one of the best games in the world, the characterization of Ezio is great, it shows well that the world shows its dark side from time to time, but not always. But why didn't he kill Rodrigo Borgia at the end of the game? It was stupid. I think it was only because they could make Assassin's Creed Brotherhood that's why I give it a 9 out of 10.… Expand

    This is the best Assassins Creed I have ever played. The story, the characters, the setting and the gameplay are amazing. This game has everything you could want in an Assassins Creed and for me the best game of 2009 and the best Assassins Creed. If you are a fan of the Assassins Creed saga you will love this game.

    Assassin's Creed II took everything that was already great from the first game, erased the repetitiveness and boring/frustrating gameplay features from its predecessor, added a loooot of things, pursued its great present/past story... and put all that in a MASTERPIECE of a game.

    AC II might be my favourite game of all-time to this day, but objectively, even if this is not a perfect game 14 years later, it's hard to find many flaws in it. Once again, it delivered thanks to incredible settings all over Italian Renaissance, characters, with Ezio still being the best AC protagonist ever created, music, with the main theme still being reused in every following games after that, gameplay mechanics that were improved, story that was enriched, a lot of fun things to do and great new ways to approach assassinations during the missions.

    The Pazzi conspiracy arc was unforgettable, and I still remember to this day how it felt 14 years ago to advance in the story, through the eyes of Ezio, from its birth to his adult days, trying to take revenge on the people who betrayed his whole family.

    An adventure of a lifetime for sure. Please, if you never played this game, do it. You won't regret it.    … Expand

    The sequel has arguably changed for the better in just about every conceivable way...Assassin's Creed II truly offers an experience like no other, one that mixes history and brutality to sheer perfection. And it's absolutely massive. [Holiday 2009, p.38]

    [Games are] about delivering a world that you want to invest your time in, full of characters you can have an emotional connection with, and Assassin's Creed II does that almost perfectly. [Dec 2009, p.102]

    Assassin's Creed II is such an improvement compared to its predecessor that it feels like a completely new game, rather than just a sequel. The varied missions really shine and the narrative is very effective, in all it's Forrest Gump-esque glory. Despite the quite slow start, Ezios adventures in beautiful Florence and Venice both look and feel amazing, and are well worth experiencing to the very end.
