    how is he stabbing him there?

    the position of the arm/wrist is weird to be stabbing through a man like that

    also, stabbing between the lungs, nor anywhere near the heart, seems quite unprofessional.

    looks like it went through the sternum.

    I think this goes back to what Tycho was saying in a post last week how the game is good, but you can play the game without subtitles and have no idea what is going on.

    Basically, yeah. They throw in Italian randomly and it doesn't tell you what it is unless you have subtitles on

    The best subtitles ever are the ones in Hidalgo. At several points it just says <<shouting in a foreign language>>

    If you haven't played the Assassin's Creed games, go look for a description of the secret weapon they have. I'd try to explain it but it's easier to see some of the art work for it.

    Also, that concerned you but the lack of blood or a wound in the third panel didn't?

    They probably wanted to make the comic more accessible, so by only having blood in Panel 2 they keep it at a T rating, instead of the M rating of a bloody panel 3.

    Also, even though both the last game and this one are rated M there seems to be less blood in this one.

    Now that I think of it, the whole "blood goes away" thing has happened to a few of the targets in their final-breath-cutscene.

    i know the little secret sleeve knife. but 1) it comes from the inside of the hand and not over the back of the knuckles 2) it is not that long 3) the angle that the blade is sticking out it all wrong

    It wasn't as long in AC1, but in AC2 the blade is that long.

    The first game sold really damn well, and I know pre-orders for the second game were relatively high.

    And it's getting pretty fantastic reviews and word-of-mouth.

    best Assassin's Creed joke they could think of?

    there is tons of funny "game" shit in assassin's creed

    i was "notorious" (basically GTA wanted stars, sort of) so to lower my notoriety, i removed a wanted poster that had appeared on a wall and bribed a herald not to talk about me. seconds later i stabbed a guard and the same poster re-appeared and the herald started talking shit again. in fact, what the hell is the crowd thinking when i walk up on stage to this herald with a big sack of coins and he starts talking about the weather?
