I'm hoping this hasn't been made yet. Anyhow, for all you fellow AC fans, I set this up to discuss its awesomeness, first impressions, gameplay, in-game tips, etc. Enjoy.

I love the new gameplay, but, at the same time, can't bring myself to rank it above the last one.

I may finish the 2nd one before trying Brotherhood

  It's okay.  The story is kind of long and with the addition of multi-player, t's relatively hard to just continue playing story when I can go ruin someone's day online.  I have a few issues with the game-play mechanics.  The battle's are fun, but a lot of the free running isn't as fluid as it was in Number 2, and in comparison to previous games, is irritating.  Secondly, finding the Brutus armor and the ten Clusters, are cool and I love reading those conspiracy theories, but I've done it all before in the last Assassin's creed.  You know, going to the Assassin's tombs, and finding those 20 glyphs.  It's kind of rehashed. 
 
  Also, what the crap?  Why can't my horse gallop!?!!??!! 
 
  One last thing, the online play is great, but it's not really keyed for the assassinee.  You know, the one about to be assassinated.  I hate it when I see the person who wants to assassinate me, but when I press the stun button, I get killed.  That's great and all when I'm the one initiating the killing, but compared to when I'm trying to defend myself running away is just crap -- and I'm ignoring the fact that whenever I run away, the other player apparantly is faster than me even though we run the same speed.  What a load of...

Thats because the last one was god tier, basically your playing in a place rich with history, meeting characters that play major roles in history and it was just fun game IMO.  
Namely why it got GOTY. 
 
I'll wait till I actually get the chance to play it before I say how awsome it is outside graphics(But damn Ezio looks a lot better than I remember him in Creed II).

I watched some of the multiplayer gameplay the other day, not really interested in this game as I got bored with playing the second one. Surprisingly, my wife wants this game more than Fable III...

Now for me to add something completely irrelevant as a comment due to Fable 3's mentioning. :P 

My buddy is a fable 3 addict.  
He liked playing MY ACII, maybe he'll man up and actually buy this one on his own cash? gargle gargle gargle.

Biggest WTF ending of a video game of the year. IMO 
72 was just a juicy element to plot.

Insane Theories that the last two games have given me so far: 
 
Adam and Eve are the first templars and subject 16's ancestor was the first assassin. 
(We are apparently watching from subject 16's ancestor's past, we see the goddess chick holding the apple and essentially having humanity enslaved working for her, Eve and Adam for some reason stole the piece of Eden and were then seemingly frightened from behind, so 16's ancestor's betrayal comes off as on the table.)
Desmond's son is reliving his father's life through the animus.
(The ending to AC: Brotherhood with the two voices telling you how he's gone into shock and they need to put him back in the animus and subject 16 talking about his son, Desdmond too weak, need to recharge(or something along those lines) 
Lucy is a templar. 
(You have the emails concerning the white van and this mysterous person shes been chatting with, her red foot(IT'S A TEMPLAR!!!) prints back to the hide out, 16 saying "she" is not what she appears to be)

No offense, but you don't seem to have good taste in games. Didn't you also say that Dead Space was better than Bioshock?

@The Mjolnir Wielder:
To be fair, both are excellent games.  While I like Bioshock a great deal more (easily in my top 5), I can understand why someone might enjoy Dead Space more.
