Quick rating: 9.5 out of 10 stars.
I have been playing this game since release day. Still have not finished it, but getting closer. There are so many things to do in this game, it's unreal.

Main Story:
It is a continuation of the first two games. While not perfectly representing history, it does use real names and places to tell a story that is very compelling and "conspiracy theory"-esque. No doubt it's fictionalized, but they blend it with historical events to make a fantastic blend of both.

Gameplay:
Not very different from AC2, but light years better than the first AC. Two of the biggest things added to this version from AC2 would be the ability to initiate kill streaks and the crossbow. Combat goes much faster with kill streaks. Once you are able to kill one enemy, with little effort, you can move to the next opponent and kill them instantly. Kill enough in a row and the remaining guards with weaker morale tend to run away. Another great addition: the parachute. Thank you, Mr. DaVinci!

Multi-Player:
Haven't played this beyond the original introduction. Seems like the concept works though. There's deathmatch (called "Wanted") where you are the hunter and the hunted at the same time. I plan on trying this out once I finish the single-player portion.

Can't wait until AC3 comes out, although I have not heard any dates or info on when it would be released.
