The game looks amazing, I've been watching some of console playthroughs, unfortunately the ones I watched are made by complete retards (darksydephil) that blame their own mistakes on the game, but still- a lot of sidemissions to do, cutscenes are great, and so are the voiceovers.
And I have to wait till Q1 2010, fuuuuuuu-

Ok i just completed the game, its epic, especially the ending. Its amazing how much they improved this game compared to the first one which i threw away after playing it for a few hours.
-Its a lot less repetetive
-You can micro manage your own village for income and discounts.
-You can buy cool equipment, belts, medicine, poisons etc.
-Cool area's
-A LOT of sidequests and the game is in overal very long, i dont know how long exactly but i think around 15hours minimum it took me 2 weekends (not nonstop) to complete it.
-Leonardo davinci & his gadgets
-fast pacing story
-After completing the game (main quest) you can still roam all maps and do all side quests!!
Some minus points
-Goodluck the first 2 - 4 hours, its FUCKING boring!!!!!
-Texture Popup
-Controls are still a bit weird, could have been a lot better
-Stealth sucks in the assassins tombs you cant take cover behind tables or walls or whatever you can just walk up to them and stab 'm and its all in all just better to kill enemys in general without using stealth.

Awesome summary, thanks man.
Although sadly, I guess I am in that 2-4 hour period in the beginning, and even then I'm still enjoying myself. Also I really enjoyed the first game too, so I think I'm really in for a good time with this one. Sometimes I find myself just walking around the city and looking around!

are my eyes playing tricks on me or does this game look sucky on the ps3 compared to the 360. I played the 360 version on my banned box b4 I sold it. And now I got it for the ps3, and the textures look blocky, almost like its a game from the 90s...

Something is wrong with your setup. The PS3 version does use blur instead of proper AA again, run at a lower framerate and produce more tearing ( http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-assassins-creed-ii-face-off-article ) but the underlying textures are the same.

Gametrailers videos are shit. They are so badly compressed that you couldn't tell any difference between anything, follow the eurogamer link instead.

I revise my statement: The X360 version possibly does use better textures ater all.
If you take a look at the ground and the walls on these screenshots (X360-1, PS3-1, X360-2, PS3-2, X360-3, PS3-3) the X360 version revelas a fair deal of additional details. I'm not sure if blur alone can cause such a difference.
