I've changed it for you mate

As for the game itself, i'll be getting the game but as i've said many times before, i'm hoping theres a lot more variety in the missions, the first game while being technically awesome, for me it got very dull about half way through because you had to keep repeating the same missions over and over, initially the combat was pretty good but then it turned into one of those dodgy martial arts films where theres 20 guys around you but instead of them all just rushing in and killing you, they all take turns in attacking making it extremely easy to defeat enemies.

If these two things are changed, i'll be very happy.

Thanks bud and yea totally agree it did get dull after awhile.

I have already pre- ordered mine. I thouroughly enjoyed it. I never found it dull or boring but I can see how some people would.

OMG I am super gay for the first Ass-Ass-In Creed right now. I think I played it for 12 hours straight yesterday.

I haven't preordered part 2, since the 'bonus' preorder item doesn't interest me, but I will love it once I have a chance to play it.

Dnt get me wrong i loved the game but i've never completed it as i get bored of run here get ur mission run there kill him run bak get mission and so on! But goin 2 start workin on it when get xbox as i want to complete it b4 i buy number 2.

For the first hour or 2, I hated it. Everything frustrated me, the controls, the drunks/beggers, etc.

But after my first few assassinations, I started to really get into it. The story is predictable, and sometimes the AI falls short. But the details and precision put into the worls is amazing, and the leveled-up combat is a lot of fun.

When the game starts to feel a little tedious, I'll walk into a crowd of 20 guards and punch on in the back of the head. There's nothing more impowering than brawling with 20+ enemies for 10 minutes, then standing on top of a pile of their dead bodies.

i have just watched the e3 gameplay footage/walkthrough and i must say its looking excellent. I was gonna buy the first one but i was put off by alot of you saying it was a bit boring, plus the review i read was luke warm. The second one looks too good to miss though, i think i will skip the first one entirely unless i find it really cheap.

Don't be put off by what some of us (myself included) say mate, i found it repetitive but I still finished it, neato is loving it at the moment and I know Tara really likes it too.
