Assasins's Creed. E3 2009




I will not be posting videos in this blog. I think pictures is a much way better medium than a 64 bit small resolution video streaming website.

The Rundown.

Goodbye Altair, Hello Ezio.Another one of Desmond's ancestor.

1486, Venice. Looks like a night parade is going on. Music, dance, fireworks... too bad you can stay to enjoy.One of the NPCs inform Ezio a machine is ready and located on top of the rooftop. A guard stopped, peeks under Ezio's hood. "It's you!-", he stabbed his guts with a hidden knife and killing him silently without anyone noticing despite the large crowd.

You are the best at what you can do, stealth killing and climbing the gorgeous architecture of Venice. Ezio walks down to the crowd and start climbing to the roof. In this sequel, we will be playing a nobleman of Florence by the name Ezio Auditore da Firenze. Ubisoft mentioned that Ezio is driven by vengeance, thus leading him into becoming an Assassin with the help of friends(one of them goes by the name Leonardo da Vinci.)


Guess I have to live without the glider for the moment.

Ezio hops into the glider, soaring through the air like an eagle, until the guards start shooting fire arrows volley by volley. Ezio evades the arrow and land a kick on one the guard face. Ubisoft added that the purpose of this device is not only for transportation but also creates a diversion.


Shall I pull him into the water and stab him or shall I stab him first?


Unfortunately, one of the wings caught fire. Ezio has to jump. I wonder did Leonardo charge him for any damages done towards his invention...never mind that since he is going to upgrade your weapons for you in the game, you'll be seeing him for quite a few times.

Ezio has been enhanced compared to his former self during the crusades, Altair. He can now kill two target in one move with his blade hidden beneath both of his sleeves.

A pile of petty haystack will not save you this time. Ubisoft has deployed an A.I that specializes in searching for anything suspicious. It's ftw I'll tell you. From what I've heard some are specialize in combat, while some are excellent at chasing, some are just good at sniffing Ezio out.


Will I ever had enough money to pay Leonardo for his inventions?

Ezio combat capabilities surpass his former ancestor, Altair. He can wield any weapons and since he is an assassin disarming weapons is one of best traits has to offer. Be rest assure as weapon varieties ranges from a dagger to a spear.

Ubisoft introduced smoke bombs for you to make a quick escape, that's neat.And they gave you an ability to swim, double neat.


The roof is mine! Buzz off.

No matter what it does, Assassin's Creed 2 promise gamers that it will be a huge improvement than it's predecessor. Until next time. Game on.
