You better have a few snacks close at hand when you finally get to play Assassin's Creed II (PS3, Xbox 360, and PC). The British Board of Film Classification says the game has about 3 hours' worth of cutscenes.

As noted in the BBFC's classification report for the game, "When submitted to the BBFC the linear elements within the work had a running time (eg cut scenes) of 181m 30s."

It's not that bad, really, especially since Ubisoft has said before that Assassin's Creed II will be longer than the original. We'll find out if that's really the case when come launch day on November 17.

I'm enjoying this news, a sandbox-like platformer w/ substance? Definitely a good direction for games to become a story-telling medium.

» close but no cigar

they are really hyping this game to metal gear solid level eh, even allowing snake to use AC's costume.

we welcome those cg's, the more the better.

just dont make the controls suck anymore.

i had more fun playing Prototype and uncharted than Assassins Creed 1. ubisoft must redeem themselves here, yeah im pointing out to you jade raymond!

Nice they improved everything but the crippled, repetitive, and boring gameplay of the original.



Sure, I'd rather watch a 3 hour movie than play a fun game.
