Assassins Creed II or Assassins Creed Brotherhood?
Freeze:
Never played the series but I always have wanted to try it, they are both on sale currently so which should I buy?
CopBlock:
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
blockguy123:
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
Treynolds416:
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
