great game. loved it alot, but it does get somewhat repetitive. save a citizen, climb a tower, picpocket someone, save a citizen, pickpocket someone, climb a tower, assassinate someone...repeat. although, the fighting moves are amazing and very detailed, the graphics and scenery are unbelievable, the size of the game and the area in which you can go is ridiculous, and it's also fun just running around on rooftops and picking fights with guards now and then. assassin's creed 2 will be a must have for any gamer's library.
