Re: Assassin's Creed Revelations

Played the 1st one, but didn't play any of the others. Since all the older ones are so cheap, would it be worth buying ACII and Brotherhood and then picking up the new one at Black Friday? The other two would only be about 40$ combined and the new one is 38$ on BF so it wouldn't be too bad. Are they worth the time of completing all of them?

Im the opposite, Ive never played the first one and played all the others lol. The first one did come on the disc with Revelations (PS3 that is), so I will get to play it eventually. I would honestly recommend getting II and Brotherhood, they are both such good games (Revelations as well), and really introduce you to the characters and backstory of Ezio. Plus if you start with II and learn the controls, the added controls introduced in Brotherhood and Revelations are a lot easier to adapt to.

Yes. I think you'd be pretty lost story wise without them.
The Altair parts of this were pretty sweet.

That's what I thought too. I'm doing the same with all the Uncharted games. Are the stories long?

Re: Assassin's Creed Revelations

I'm not sure. I did a lot of the side stuff. Oddly there's no play time displayed for these games. I would guess Brotherhood is at least 15 hours,not sure about II but that's probably not far off. The main story in this one seems really short. Still doing most of the side stuff so it's long overall.

Well, I might trade in Gears of War 3, since I never play my 360. I don't know if I'll play the 1st game since there's no trophies and I already played it. They didn't install trophies for the 1st game did they?

ACII was pretty long. I know I use up a lot of time completing these games, but I'd say ACII's story could be finished in 15 hours if you played straight through. It had a lot more than either Brotherhood and Revelations. I think Brotherhood you could finish in 8 or 9 hours if you just play through without doing the side stuff, same with Revelations.

Re: Assassin's Creed Revelations

Yeah Assassins Creed 2 by far was the longest out of the series. But then again it made sense since that is when you followed Ezio's life from birth on up until his 30s.

Re: Assassin's Creed Revelations

Well, I traded my 360, got about 250$ after it all. Bought AC2, ACB, and ACR along with Skyrim. My 60 inch Sharp Aquas Quattron can't get here soon enough!

They do show time played, at least on PS3 in the saved game utility.

AC Brotherhood (68% Trophies)

Synchronization 53.46%
Time Played 22:48:56
Distance Covered 183427m

ACII (100% Trophies)

Synchronization 64.8%
Time Played 22:23:39
Distance Covered 201263m

I didn't play any Brotherhood multiplayer, that time is all single player. Brotherhood I knew I would never do the multiplayer stuff so I wasn't worried about getting things like the feathers.

Re: Assassin's Creed Revelations

Stupid fall game blitz.

Spoiler

I just finished this game and the only thing that disappoints me about it is that I finished the within a week. I spent a little bit more time with AC:B (but at times I felt the pacing was too quick as well) Of course it's my fault for putting along quickly through the story, but I sure wish that there was more in Constantinople. It's such a huge city and 6 memory sequences is too little for such a place. In any case, aside from the story length, the story itself was good in my opinion. The sequences where you get to play through portions of Altair's life was a nice touch and sure gives some closure to his character and his role in the series.

I found the bomb crafting to be very addicting in this game, especially creating and using the tactical/diversion ones. The den defense was alright and fortunately I only had three to deal with during my playthrough (I got steamrolled in one of them) and I like the added missions for training your master assassins. I can't wait for the next one to come out (and I may have to wait a while to do so because of a future obligation).

I think this was a great game with everything considered.

Re: Assassin's Creed Revelations

Well...Since GS b2g1f was today for PU members, I figured I'd stop in and see what's up.

I had already bought Saints 3 the other day used so I returned it to rebuy in the deal.
I had roughly 36 and some change in credit to use also..

Ended up with SR3, AC:Revelation and Uncharted 3.
