I think Assasins Creed 2 is an excellent game and to many I heard the first one was a dissapointment. The question is I am asking is would it be okay to skip the first game and play the second or should I play the first one first before playing the second one.

I didn't skip the first one and thought I had to play it before AC2 and I'll regret it till the end of my life. On my death bed I will say, "AC2 was awesome and AC1 sucked. I regret that I wasted 20 hours of my life playing the first one when I could have been playing the second during that time." And then I'll keel over and die. Does that answer your question?

I would recommend playing it, the first Assassins Creed was great. People often attack it for the having the same problems that all the FPS they hype year in and year out has. Its always better to experience the story first hand, you wouldn't start reading a book halfway through because someone gave you a sypnosis of the first half. If you play FPS you should love Assassins Creed.

the games take place in 2 diffrent ages - the first one is from the midages anf the second one is about therenaissance, but it talks about the memory of the same man except for that that thare aren't really common things in the storylines, but you should play in the first one just because it amazing

Well I read about AC1's story and background before playing AC2. Once I'm done with AC2, I wanna see if I really missed anything in AC1 and see the difference.
