Assasin's Creed Question

you know... I'm pretty obsessed with Assassin's Creed II. I never played the first one and only bought the second because I love Renaissance Venice so much. My WIP is what I call "Dangerous Beauty" (about Veronica Franco, a Venetian courtesan) meets Assassin's Creed II. The thing I loved so much about the game was the rich world. The architecture is amazing, so for me... I'd miss the visuals.

The story line is marginally good if you ask me, actually. The game play is better. I guess that's the history buff in me getting a little irritated at inaccuracies though.

My fencing armor is Ezio's doublet which I designed off the Hot Toys doll and I even bought the knife from Museum Replicas. NOt that it's awesome, but you can't find them often.

I bought AC3 but in the opening sequence a character says, "You have Altair's knowledge and Ezio's skills...." and I pushed power because I'd never played the first one and didn't have Altair's knowledge. SO I bought that one and began playing it but the game play was rather redundant and the plot was a touch boring. So.. I might go back to them one of these days when I get more time. I'd watch the game if you're interested in ACII because the visuals are by far the best part.

 

AC 1 is good, II, Brotherhood and Revelations (aka the Ezio Trilogy) are awesome. AC 3 sucks and I haven't played Black Flag though I hear good things.

You could probably find a decent PS3 and the AC games on ebay, Craigslist or a pawn shop for a fair price. The Ezio trilogy is worth owning just for the gameplay and the visuals. Like Caged Maiden said, they are stunning.
