What is your first thought when you see this pic that I took in "Italia" at Epcot?

"Gotta be a viewpoint up there" was what I told my wife. She looked at me like I was insane. I rolled my eyes and said "Give me the camera."

That synchronize tone from the viewpoint is the best part of the whole game. I would've scaled that sucker just to see if I could've found the viewpoint.  :laugh:

Well, my first thought was that you went to Vegas and stayed at The Venetian.  But yeah, that was my second thought.  If only there were a hawk circling above it. :wave:

Agreed!

I recently wrapped up a replay of AC2 and I just started on AC-B a couple of days ago. I figure I should finish it the week AC-R comes out.

IMO, AC-R doesn't even have to introduce any new elements to the franchise to be a near perfect game.  Just combine the best of the last two.  I liked the larger world and variety of cities better in AC2 (plus, Florence and Venice are inherently more interesting than Rome anyway).  But the improved fighting mechanics and recruit system of AC-B were a big step up over its predecessor.  Now if AC-R can just give us a bigger map with more variety AND keep the improved gameplay found in AC-B, it will be hard to beat. :thumbup:

I'm not sure about the map variety and size but there are some big introductions in AC-R, the foremost of which is the ability to gather "ingredients" and use them in different combinations to make different bombs. It looks REALLY sweet.

There is also a hook enhancement to the hidden blade which allows you to basically zip-line places.
