Sorry, that was a rhetorical statement. Yes, I know they branded their fingers during Ezio's time, but Matis made it sound like the Modern-day assassins were still cutting off their finger.

What modern Assassin's has their finger missing? I'm pretty sure they wouldn't do that considering how EASY it would be to identify a person as an Assassin.

Ah, wait a minute! You're partially right. There IS a part in the trailer where he does have all his fingers. (The section where he and Ezio are mirroring each other while running.) [Maybe this is before he ascends to the Master rank where they remove the finger...? Bah, who knows.] He lacks the ring finger the rest…

Just you. Look again.

KEEP CALM AND WAIT UNTIL NOVEMBER 15TH!!

Seconding the soup.

If there's one genre of games I hate playing, it's FPSs.

Same here....the news of Square dropping titles isn't very optimistic either...

So...can anyone direct me to a site where this NA gamer can buy the Animus edition? It may be too soon to ask, but I can try.

@Norm the Alligator: The official AC Encyclopedia is going to be published separately with the Carte Blanche section included (fanwork section). But who knows how much it'll cost on its own.

@OMGTheSunIsOnFire: Ditto on the empty hopes of another figure...But I at least PRAY that this collector's edition will be available to the NA audience.

I DEFINITELY noted the large amount of shooters because, unfortunately, they are the least favorite game genre...there didn't seem too much for me to do at that point.

*this - Tomb Raider

YES! When I would just sit to relax, I'd either go to Square JUST TO WATCH THIS or to Ubisoft for Assassin's Creed: Revelations trailer!

I keep whatever I want for myself before I leave the rest in a bag for the peeps at work to dig through. The multitudes of postcards/promo cards become part of the wallpaper of my lockers and cubicle walls over at the job.

I sincerely hope it stays in LA, it seems the easiest to travel to. The Moscone center would be a close second.

@Revolver_OcelScott: Ditto. I ended up selling the things I got with my US ACB collector's edition. Now if I got the Euro one with the Codex, I"d be a bombshell of happiness!

FF13 Versus, anyone...? Hello?

@InAnimateAlpha: Here, allow me to join you:

For games, I always have them on if give the option. (Games like Assassin's Creed are a must with the random foreign word thrown here and there without verbal translations).
