I'll see what the competition is like for this month before I decide. Nothing I have to offer is really all that original unless I spruce up my older game reviews (Rollercoaster Tycoon and American Conquest). Besides, people seem more interested in newer and/or more relevant things

Good review, with attention to the important points.
The lack of variation in mission is indeed a huge pain. I had the directors cut which added two mission types, and it was still repetitive 1/3 in. When you pay AC2 you'll see this is gonna be hugely improved. Its the reason why so many people refer to AC2 as the best game. Not because it has the best features (brotherhood for example had a few very strong gameplay elements like replaying of memories and 100% synch as difficulty level), but because it added the most to its predecessor
Also, you can use the hidden blade for combat, but only for counter attacks (so no blocking), and you need to be very quickly cause the frame to get it right is really short
Looking forward to AC2 review
Whoops, I meant block countering, not just blocking

For thirty years I've lived in the shadows, visited death upon those who deserved it, and vanished like the wind. I don't know who started this conspiracy, but I know who will end it. My name is Ezio Auditore da Firenze. Like my father before me, I am an Assassin."

Agreed.
AC2 was the best of the series, Revelations was even greater.
I just love how cinematic ACII was, and Brotherhood is definitally living up to that. Combined with the score, it has given me chills at different points. Like at the beginning of ACII, when Ezio and his Brother are on the rooftops, it was an amazing sense, and felt like a movie.

I've been finally getting into the assassins creed franchise by buying the first 3 games. I finished 1 in January and finished 2 yesturday. Brotherhood is next.
The series has certainly evolved over time with 1 to 2 being the biggest jump in features and improvment. I havnt played all of them but thats my favorite so far. That game made me like ezio the best out of the assassins.

Yes sorry i went and edited that.
You're gonna fall in Ezio even more as you play the next games. The gameplay keeps improving (not as drasticly as AC1->AC2, but then again that would almost be impossible)
If you have played Revelations, watch the shortmovie Embers afterwards. It will bring a tear to your eye
I should probably mention that I have already finished the main game series, including Revelations. I have watched Embers but I have not watched the other short movies.
I just have not had the time I have wanted to write all the reviews. I'm in the planning stages for Brotherhood and Revelations right now.
After all this I may do Liberation. My girlfriend's roommate has it and said I could borrow it sometime.

great reviews, tough i noticed one factual mistake in AC2 section (wich probably happened only because you havent played it trough at least 100 times like i have, so no big deal )- Altair's armour (in the tomb) actually is unbreakable, but it has same HP as best purchasable armour. also, you cant change colour on Altair's robe
PS! did you notice little detail, that when you are with normal robes, hood is down in cutscenes, but with Altair's robe, hood is still on

Fixed.
I never bought the best armor so I only assumed Altair's was the best for health. I also did not mention changing the color of the robes in general because I did not feel it was important.

Another smashing review my friend.
