Assassins Creed 2 is definitely sitting quite high up on my list of anticipated games for 2009 and looks to rectify all of the issues that were experienced with the first game. That being said, the first game wasn’t exactly bad, it was just the repetitive missions and the lack of interaction with the city folk that got to me …
