    The White Edition contains the game, the white statue of Ezio and one bonus mission in Venice.

    The Black Edition contains the game, the black statue of Ezio, hardback Conspiracy Book containing concept art etc, a bonus making of DVD and soundtrack and three exclusive missions including the one from the White Edition.

    Yeah that's what I've found online for the most part too, think I'll settle for the White Edition!

    Got the black edition last night, VERY impressed with the game. The story line is as epic as the last even better, the gameplay is so fluid, new weapons , new movements. The city is unbelieveably realistic, sometimes I felt I was actually in the game. Anyone who was considering getting this it is a must have.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,123 ✭✭✭✭Star Lord


    Sounds great, just wishing I'd gone and ordered from GameStop rather than Play.com now :'(


  • Registered Users Posts: 149 ✭✭screw2loose


    picked it up this morning in smyths for €42, cant wait to get home and give it a whirl. Stupid college reports holding me back!!

    Can anyone confirm the Black edition is €65 in Gamestop,I have phoned one store who said €90.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,861 ✭✭✭Irishcrx


    It's €90 mate, thats what I paid for it in gamestop..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,325 ✭✭✭✭drunkmonkey


    Should I rent or buy this? Will I clear it in a week? local xtra vision only have the ordinary edition for 49.99, no black or white edition...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,845 ✭✭✭Jet Black


    Are smyths giving the white one for €50? According to the website they are, just dont know if its a mistake?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,990 ✭✭✭Darksaga87


    Id print out that page an walk into the store with it. Nothing they can do then.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,485 ✭✭✭Mr. K


    A friend of mine picked up the White Edition in Smyths for €50 this morning, I'd say go quick before they're gone. They're selling the normal version for €40 all weekend though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,990 ✭✭✭Darksaga87


    What are smyhts like with trading in games? Good value?

    the start of it is the most boring hours worth of gaming i think ive ever come across though, that could put people off


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,067 ✭✭✭Gunmonkey


    Any worse than the intro to games like GTA4 (drive Roman around a bit) or the tutorials in every FPS out there?? What about Half-Life 1, you just stand and walk for about 15 minutes :D

    Once you get passed that, the game REALLY opens up. Loving the story, especially what the video "The Truth" is revealling (the one you get for finding the mysterious symbols on walls)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,969 ✭✭✭antomorro-sei


    Didn't even know there was a Second Assassins Creed out :eek:

    I must go and get it over the weekend :D

    €40 for the standard, €85(!) for the Black Edition. I think you need to have pre-ordered to get the Black Edition though.

    I've just spent an hour playing it and first impressions aren't great at all. Most striking is the character models - they're fecking terrible, I haven't played the first game since it was released but I don't remember them being this bad. First location is a lot less interesting and visually exciting than AC1. Hopefully things dramatically take off.

    but the beginning is absolutely disgraceful

    Well picked up the white one in smyths for 50 euro. Never understood the whole thing about special edition's, still dont think they can justify €90+ for these.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 553 ✭✭✭Futurism


    Couldn't get the white edition with the figure. Had to have pre ordered it apparently. :(
