This week is completely dedicated to Assassin’s Creed 2, so you know that this is a huge release. The first entry in the series was a break-out success in sales, but is remembered as a game that just didn’t deliver on its promises. Things are certainly better this time around with Ryan calling it “One of the finest games over made.”

As tends to be the approach with CO-OP, the guys are not pulling to many punches in the spoiler territory, so if you care about the narrative, be aware that story details are throughout the discussion. Will Tuttle of GameSpy and Arthur Gies of Team Xbox are sitting in to share their thoughts as well.

The guys are taking a vacation next week, so in lieu of a regular show, we will get another episode of The Jason Show.

We’re going to be on our Thanksgiving break next week, so keep your eyes out for a special episode of CO-OP on December 1st that’ll be a departure from the norm. We’ll be back on December 8th with our regular programming. This week, though, is an almost-special episode thanks to our long-form coverage of Assassin’s Creed 2. It’s just too big to talk about in the normal time constraints of our show. Enjoy and remember to enjoy your holiday! And by “enjoy,” we mean catch up on the holiday gaming rush. It’s going to be a HUGE 2010 and you need to get started now ;p
