There are plenty of real-world truths that make their way into video games--even if they're often a tad exaggerated...
This video will bludgeon you with reasons to be hyped for Assassins Creed II. Watch it and you’ll see why Assassin’s Creed II is among our most anticipated games this year. We cut this trailer-style video ourselves out of a crapton of random b-roll footage Ubi provided for our hands-on preview. So you want a peek at Ezio’s new tricks, right?
