Assassin's Creed II was a brilliant game. If not for Uncharted 2 it would have been my Game of the Year for 2009 hands down (sorry Batman). The PC version of the game sadly missed its release date and was pushed back to 2010. Now we have a concrete release date and the minimum system requirements you’ll need to run this game.

Nash, as he prefers being called, woke up to the wonders of gaming rather late but don't bring that up around him. It's a touchy subject. A self confessed Battlefield veteran, Nash spent a good part of 2010 on the Steam Battlefield - with Bad Company (see what we did there?). He has a zero tolerance policy towards RTS games but is currently showing an interest by picking up and moving people - who he refers to as units - in the office. Thank God he's not that enthusiastic about Angry Birds or we'd be seeing women flying all over the place. Bali... Bali, put the receptionist down now.
