    Arguably one of the best games that any game studio has ever made, from the open-world to the soundtrack, from the gameplay mechanics to the plot and individual characters, this game is a mind blowing beast

    A solid 10, a must play game, the best game in the saga yet. The Ezio story is so good that you want more and more and more of it.

    The first AC I played and the beginning of my love story with Assassins Creed haha From story to game mechanics to game setting it was just great. Of course it had bugs or glitches but not many. Still the best part of the series

    Lovely game! It’s not difficult to play, however the story is super amazing! It’s like reading a book and at the same time climbing all those walls and running on roofs and getting chased by guards, exciting stuff !! Ezio Auditore is by far my favorite Assassin!

    The greatest game of all time. It is personally my favourite , and it's the best game in multiple genres:(stealth , historic , action-adventure , and parkour).

    I really enjoyed this game from start to finish. Had a story that captivated me from the very beginning, a parkour system that really opens up traversal in Venice, and on that note just being around historical Venice, like all Assassin's Creed games with their historical settings, is an absolute joy especially if you're into history.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Lo mejor de la saga en un solo videojuego como vimos crecer a ezio despues de que perdiera a su familia como se volvió un asesino como motivado por la venganza mataba a todos hasta que entendió que eso no le iba devolver a su familia… Expand

    Magnificent. A must-have experience, which consolidated the series to what it is. The Ezio saga is a fantastic story, and everyone must play it.

    That was the best Assassin's Creed game I've ever played, Auditore's story didn't let me stop the game for a second, I also won the Platinum of the game (the last trophy if I get stressed enough).

    This game is a masterpiece. I've gotten the platinum trophy 2 times (ps3 ps4) and i gotta say that as many times as i play this game it will feel great and revolutionary.

    My soul and blood is equivalent to this game. Never has any piece of entertainment or product reached this level of meaning to me. If you have no interest in this franchise, give this game and Brotherhood a try. The production on every aspect of this game has the utmost polish and love that a development team can put. God bless you Patrice Désilets!

    Que juegazo, no esperaba tanto pq hace no mucho tiempo Ubisoft me decepcionó con Far Cry 3 al jugarlo por primera vez y no porque sea malo, simplemente pq lo jugué en una época donde los mundos abiertos son muy repetitivos y ese juego junto con AC1 (que no lo he jugado) implemento un estilo de mundo abierto que en su época funcionó pero consideró que hizo mal a la industria, el mundoQue juegazo, no esperaba tanto pq hace no mucho tiempo Ubisoft me decepcionó con Far Cry 3 al jugarlo por primera vez y no porque sea malo, simplemente pq lo jugué en una época donde los mundos abiertos son muy repetitivos y ese juego junto con AC1 (que no lo he jugado) implemento un estilo de mundo abierto que en su época funcionó pero consideró que hizo mal a la industria, el mundo abierto repetitivo de los iconos, torres y fortalezas, y este estilo en un Far Cry me cansó por ser un FPS, y un mapa que me interesaba 0.
    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.

    Pero sin duda alguna su fuerte como todos sabemos es su historia, es increíble Ezio es muy buen personaje y su trama que dura como 20 años esta muy bien desarrollada, y luego esa ambientación del renacimiento (que soy muy fan) me encantó.    … Expand

    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.

    I rate this game like it was 2009; wow this game it's so fire, 10/10 story, 10/10 setting, 9/10 graphics, 10/10 soundtrack, 10/10 voice acting. for me it can compete for the game of the year. ah and obviously it's better than AC1

    Masterpiece. Everything in this game was far from Good, story, music, characters, combats... I think it is the greatest game of assassin's Creed franchise as ezio is the greatest character in franchise.

    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.
