Is it auto saved at certain points or is it basically save at any time?
Thanks in advance.

i am not sure if u can save at any time once u get your own place, but from the onset it will automatically save at certain points.

you will see a diamond to the lower right of the screen.
Thats the auto save sign.

if you're expecting a pure stealth game.....it's not that. the game is action/platform/stealth all into one. The missions are really varied and well done and some of the missions if you're careful can be done with stealth. The action sequences in the game is also very well done....so many ways to combat the baddies.

One complaint about the game is , it is a bit too difficult to get familiar with the surroundings as the cities are huge and the buildings look too similar. You will have a general idea of the city and its locations/landmarks, but I doubt anyone will have the cities down like they do with GTA series ( cars help)

i agree on the massiveness of the city.

with AC I, i used to turn off the hud, then it made it even harder to get around and figure out where to go.

Exactly, it saves constantly; you don't even have to think about it. Basically anytime "something happens" it saves.

Re: Assassin's Creed 2

there's a picture of a diamond-looking type thing (that spins) - that's when you know you are saving. once you've hit an achievement point, that's the time to either move on or quit because the save points follow objectives...

Re: Assassin's Creed 2

I swear, the mission variety in this game - not even including all the puzzles and platforming, which are awesome in their own right - is maybe the best I've ever experienced.

To go from "this game [AC1] is boring and repetitive" to what they've done with this game is truly remarkable.

I just finished the 9th memory chain and even this deep into the game everything is still totally fresh. Literally every mission is different, even though there's like 100 of them. It's crazy.

This was my biggest concern about this game. I may have to pick this up today.

I understand.
well, think of it this way, by the time you do have money, you wont have to pay full price, as it will be cheaper on amazon or ebay.
Or it might even be used at G-Stop.

Being broke is a blessing in disguise.

You can save by quitting through the menu

Sorry I need to step in here.

This has absolutely NOTHING to do with Sony and everything to do with a developer.

Games are created on the 360 b/c developers are familiar with the tools of the system. They are then ported over to the PS3 with as little money and resources spent as possible to get a game playing as close as possible to the 360 version. Rarely do you see a game better on the PS3 because the company won't spend the money when they won't really receive any benefit from it. People are still going to buy the game.

Just shedding some light on the whole process. Statements like this are absolutely wrong.

Which is why I said in another post that it's Sony's fault for going out of their way to make their system so different from the PC and the 360.

ID is the programming language Sony uses? Correct? I hear it's extremely difficult to code. Very powerful but very complicated to code in. Just my .02. Game on!!

Mood, there is always going to be a console every generation that is going to be difficult to program for.

They did it with the hopes that it would pay off in the long run. Looking at PS3 exclusives, who knows if that will be the case, but you can certainly see some of these developers take advantage of it.

Placing blame is irresponsible. Using that same logic, you can see why people are complaining that next-gen games are no different than the PS2/Xbox era. Would you "place blame" on MS then?

C'mon. Sorry to sidetrack the thread fellas, but that comment was just wrong.

Desmond's voice is the same dude that does Drake in Uncharted right?
