Well, I bought and blew through Assassin's Creed already. I have to say, this is a very fun game with the worst cliffhanger ending I've ever seen. It is one thing to leave room for a sequel. It is quite enough to blatantly leave off the final two chapters of the first "book" so to speak. For those of you who are thinking about getting the game, I will be writing a full review shortly. However, you should know right away that the Gamespot review that mentions the "confusing ending" is completely not descriptive enough of how this game ends. "Extortionist ending" comes a little closer to the mark (no pun intended). If you want to actually see how the game ends, you'll need to shell out $60 for a sequel. The game doesn't leave a few loose ends. It leaves an entire sweater factory full of them. This game was great, and I am going to rate it well, but the ending just left a terribly bad taste in my mouth. The ChiliDragon was in the room with me and we saw it together. Our mutual, and almost identical, response when we saw the credits start to roll was "are you f*&%#@g kidding me?!"
