    I assumed it was bug free, I never saw reviews complaining about any .

    Yeah. I'm not sure if it's laziness or the developers being arrogant fucks who think the player wants to see their totally awesome cutscenes over and over again.

    It's still not an outstanding game, but at least I don't want to purge its memory from my brain, like with the first one.
    Whenever I forget how much I hate the first, I'll probably give it a shot .

    The first game had throwing knives too.

    They eventually became the most worthwhile way to deal with combat.

    Once they started throwing templar ninjas at you in hordes and counterkilling everything got boring.

    Considering the direction they've been going in for PoP, I'm not sure I can second this.

    Forgotten Sands was alright, they just need to continue the plot along.

    But isn't Forgotten Sands a prequel to Two Thrones and Warrior Within? And Two Thrones pretty much had a definite ending with no sequels in mind. Not sure how they could continue with that Prince.

    Ejected the disc, loaded it back up, loaded the case again, WATCHING THE FMV NOW. If the trucks/pumps won't start spawning I'm never playing this game again.

    For those interested, I'm going for this trophy:

    Public Menace
    Rack up $47,000 in penalties during a single story case.

    It's not for blowing up 7 trucks, but apparently 7 trucks is around the amount you need to get the trophy.

    I'm sure they could find something to do. Maybe remake those two so they don't look so terrible ?

    They did that already.

    That's the beauty part, all AC needs to do for a reboot is change time periods. ACII was a reboot. The one after Revelations will be another reboot. They've set this up far too well.
