Preorder Assassin’s Creed 2 to Unlock the Palazzo Medici

by Dylan Duarte on June 24, 2009 at 1:57 am

Unlock the what in the what now? Folks who pre-order the sequel to Assassin’s Creed will get the chance to explore the Palazzo Medici, a famous palace in Italy. I think that’s lame.

This trend of sectioning off a part of the game for customers who pre-order is not something I’m liking. I’m also talking about when people get special weapons, like the kind that came with the gold edition of Battlefield: Bad Company that actually gave players who spent $10 more an advantage in multiplayer. Why can’t we just stick to fancy cases and physical collectable items?

    I agree. Cosmetic stuff like the special controller or the ability to play as Johnson are fine, making stuff other wise unavailable isn't cool at all.

    This is not a new trend boys. In the old days, before consensual sex, you had to marry a women before you could unlock sexual favors.
