i say brother hood, comes after II, stans to reason gameplay should be better. ive only breifly played II but i throughly enjoyed brother hood so thats my 2 cents

2 because brotherhood wont make sense if you play it first

brotherhood is plenty easy to understand, it explains the story pretty well. shows how ezio is living and such, makes sense without playing two. i dont think there are any important throwbacks to II anyway

They're all pretty terrible console ports. I wouldn't know any of the buttons in ac2 if I hadn't played through ac1 first, because in ac2 they decided to use icons to represent keystrokes as opposed to, say, actual keys.

I think you should buy all of them, smart people like me bought all 4 plus the dlc for $50 during the summer sale. In any case, I've been playing through them all. Currently at the end of the second one, it's a very enjoyable game but having not played brotherhood yet I couldn't tell you which one to get. If you literally can only get one I would guess that you should get brotherhood because of the multiplayer

oh look treynolds is here to give us assassins creed knowledge

i didnt even think about mentioning multiplayer, yeah thats always a good time.

Brotherhood.
I got more fun out of it than II.

AC:2 > AC:Brotherhood

Brotherhood you were stuck in Rome. AC:2 you had like 4 or 5 cities.
Plus the story line was extremely good in AC:2 though it lacked some features that Brotherhood had

Neither cuz they both suck. Get a good game like FTL:Faster Than Light.

'Scuse me, he's asking which of 2 games to get. Your second opinion isn't needed.

[Man 2]

Get ACII if you haven't played either one yet. ACBH kind of throws you into the thick of things with only a brief "Previously on Assassin's Creed" to get you up to speed, at which it drastically fails.

Pfft, I already have that. I don't need your opinion on that I shouldn't buy both.
Anyway my parents said I could just buy both since they are cheap, but I'll play AC:II first since the main thing you guys have said is the story won't make sense! :D
