It's a too early to say whether or not the future games will be dissapointing however I will not buy Assassin's Creed 2 full price due to being ripped off from the first one, and no good reputation for the series to make me want to trust it (and its reviews) again. Splinter Cell, if it was on the PS3 I'll wait to hear if it's similar to Chaos Theories and downwards. I hate the action scenes (Sam busting in through the front, without the element of suprise also [Enemies were behind tables, all pointing their guns at the door]) and I hated the story that started in Double Agent (I don't see how they're going to involve the government into Sarah's death. It would be so elaborate of a plan to get Sam into the JBA that it's ludicrous).

I don't know what else Ubisoft is making these days... I don't really follow them anymore.

I wasn't dissapointed with the first Splinter Cell, so no thanks I think I will anticipate it.

I liked Rainbow Six:Vegas. A lot.

Assassin's Creed was also exactly as advertised for me. It wasn't great, but it wasn't bad.

Boycott fail.

And you like the move towards action the series has taken? Just like Resident Evil has done? Doesn't that kill the entire point of stealth (stay out of sight, taking on enemies head on will get you killed).

its just ubisoft games this gen looks good on trailer but when you play them it gets repetitive and you get bored fast

Far Cry 2 , Assassins Creed , Prince Of Persia , and im pretty sure Assassins creed 2 is going to be the same as seen from the gameplay.

Prince of Persia was Ubisoft :O

Well SC:C will be my second US game this gen and I was very happy with PoP

Or perhaps you're just expecting too much out of them...I thoroughly enjoyed Prince of Persia. Assassin's Creed needed some improvements but it wasn't terrible. I'll give you Far Cry 2. Critics like that one but the people who bought it, not so much.

There are far worse gaming companies out there to boycott against besides Ubisoft. Activision, milking the same franchises OVER and OVER and OVER again. Refusing to let go of a game that they got rid of when they merged with Vivendi, and releasing that godawful Crash Bandicoot game last year. I think they should be more of a priority to protest against. Prototype is the only title that's redeeming at all in my opinion about Activision.

OI, no boycotting Activision, I want another Prototype
