I preffer god of war style over the top combat in slashers, the fighting in assasin's creed always fest really blocky and meh

I liked Altair more.

Why? Was it the look of the character, the back story, or something else? (not picking fault, I'm interested) Personally I really "got" the character development in AC2 - with Ezio starting out as a spoilt brawling brat, and eventually ending up as this one-man killing machine. Also kinda liked the "requiem in pace" moments in the cinematics - at least shows some morality at the centre - no godless thug (unlike his opponents).

Of course maybe I'm reading too much into something which, at the end of the day, was just a piece of entertainment. Maybe I'm also doing Altair a disservice because I was dumb enough to do AC2 and then AC1, and that's never a good thing, the earlier game usually comes off worst in the comparison.

Which reminds me, I got the last AC installment (Brotherhood) at Christmas and haven't spun it up yet - must do that soon or I'll still be on it when this one (Revelations) comes out.

Speaking of which, if Revelations is as good as promised in the trailers then it's going to be a shoe in for the video game awards, MW3 be damned.

i do feel like Altair, if he gets more story given to him, has the potential to be a better character for me.
