Assassin's Creed II for Xbox 360 Reviews by Gamers

Assassin's Creed 2 is probably one of the greatest games I have played. I can't stop playing it.
Desmond Miles is back in the Animus except this time he is working for the assassins. They break him out of Abstergo in order to train him to become an assassin and with the Animus it will be easy. He goes to the time of the Italian Renaissance and experiences the life of a another one of his ancestors named Ezio Auditore Da Firenze. I like saying that name. Ezio is out for revenge for the murder of his father and two brothers and he trains to possibly become a better assassin than Altair. He travels all over Italy to solve clues and kill some people in order to find the one responsible for his father and brother's murder.
The gameplay is little bit like the first but it has been updated big time. There are new weapons you can choose from like a mace or even an axe. You can upgrade your armor and even change the color of your outfit. My favorite weapon is still the hidden blade but this time you have two so that means double the kills. The gameplay is a lot harder than the first but the way you kill your opponents makes it even better. You can take your enemy's weapons and use it against them. You can jump off buildings and kill your enemies on top. Also you can hide in hay and stealth kill them. You can swim in the game too so thats a big plus. You blend with the crowd a lot in this game in order to hide from your enemies but even if you are hiding that doesn't mean they can't find you so be aware of that. Countering is harder too especially against the bigger enemies but it still helps.
This game is a major upgrade from the first so you Assassin's Creed fans will not be disappointed.
