Title: Assassin's creed 2

OooOoooo.
I liked the first one, but thought it got a little repetitive. Looks like they're trying to fix that.
I wants it.

looks very cool, but afraid it is too much of trying to jump at something and missing, and trying that 29 times before I get it right.
I've never been good in games like that

Nah, jumping is very easy, at least I suppose it'll be like AC 1 in that respect. Basically you just hold one button and the toon will do all kind of cinematic jumps and swings on your screen. ;)
During fights you do need a bit of timing - the best way to kill people in the first game was to counter their strikes. Usually that would yield a parry and a finishing blow.
If you want to you can have a test-drive next time you're over. You have to try out AoC as well, anyway. :P

One of the main attractions for me is that they have this knack of picking historical places/times that interest me. First the crusades, now medieval/renaissance Italy.  :D
