The early months of 2010 are currently looking to be very exciting. Aside from the PC launch of the game in Q1 of 2010, the first two DLCs will be released by Ubisoft in both January and February.

Each of the new content units will require 1GB of HDD space and that looks to us like quite a large expansion to the game. After being sorely disappointed by short-lived and low-impact DLC in Fable 2, Assassin’s Creed II promises to be worth every penny spent on it.

The January DLC will be titled Battle of Forli, and the February DLC release will run under the title Bonfire of the Vanities. Exact release dates or DLC pricing have not been announced, yet. I am guessing, however, that the price point will be somewhere around 1600 MS Points, considering the size of each DLC.

Assassin's Creed

You may have noticed the new video on the sidebar. This is the first part of the new Assassin’s Creed trailers that are going to be officially released on YouTube in the coming days. The first one is already online. These are official videos and show a little bit about the history of the game’s history and character.

I can’t say how excited I am about this game. The first part was amazing to experience, even though the game play was stupendously repetitive and not very enjoyable over longer periods of time. According to many previews, reviews, podcast celebrities and developers, we no longer have to sit on park benches for ages, listening to people and waiting for the right time.

This game is no longer a time sink with questionable fun payout. I don’t have to reiterate the many reviews that are already out there for this game. Just go look for one of them and then watch this very cool video clip.
