If all you've played is Assassin's Creed the former, and you're on the fence about whether or not you want more of the same, let me say this: Assassin's Creed II is not only leaps and bounds better than the first, it is also the best game of the series on the whole. They took the original concept and polished it to a mirror finish. This game is utterly fantastic.

If you enjoyed the first game at all, you owe it to yourself to play this one. Even if there were some things about the first that put you off, this one is so drastically improved that I can recommend it with confidence.
