First off, this has become one of my favorite games. The history and overall depth of the games has made me an avid fan.

In the last few weeks I've beaten AC II and Brotherhood. I will admit that the ending of Brotherhood pissed me off. It went from the normal head scratcher ending to a "I'm pissed off with how that played out" ending.

Anyways, I'm looking forward to AC3, bur from the looks of it, we won't be seeing anything about it until May and that's if we're lucky.

I did notice something in the ending of Brotherhood and in the AC2 glyph sequences that I think will give us an idea of where AC3 will be taking place. I'm suspecting that it will take place during the American Revolution. Why? Well, let me explain the hints which have very minor spoilers.

1. In AC after a certain number of glyph sequences have been completed, Subject 16 actually starts ranting and raving as a series of memories start to string together in his madness. He mentions being in the Revolution and is freaking out about blood on his coat from a wounded soldier. Apart from Altair and Ezio, this is the only other person that we know Subject 16 to have been.

2. In the end of Brotherhood when you enter the Apple room the Piece of Eden activated and starts spewing symbols all over the room. Shaun mentions in his facsination a Masonic eye and a Phygrian Cap. Being a bit of a history buff, I'm pretty sure that those symbols only appear together in early American history.

The floor is open now, go ahead and discuss and speculate you AC junkies!

I'd like it during the American Revolution... that would be sweet. Either that, or feudal China.

You're the second person to mention something about fuedal China or Japan being a good setting. I just have a hard time seeing it. If they go that route, then I'll just have to see what happens.

American Revolution would be great because you can already use quite a few historical characters as part of the Assassin's order. Signers of the Declaration of Independence and Benjamin Franklin would be able to take the place of Leonardo Da Vinci as the inventor.

I'm not sure who could be what in Asia as I don't have very good knowledge of the history.

They say that Altair's last days were spent in Mongolia to kill Ghanghis Khan. I can see Desmond having some sort of ancestor there. Tons of Chinese history involving great wars between different kingdoms in China that could be the basis of an interesting. China's also the basis of alot of gun weaponry, among other things.

But yeah, 1700's America would be pretty sweet too.

72's the number.

By and large, my favourite part of the Assassin's Creed games has been the few times I've gotten to run around as Desmond. Regardless of what the new setting may be, I hope the intermission sequences give us more opportunities to practice his new skills and learn more about his fellow Assassins after his sessions on the animus.

That would be cool! I was hoping in Brotherhood that we would have got more use of Desmond after logging out of the Animus, but all we got was Desmond running around and being able to look menacing with his hidden-blade.

I'm hoping that in his offtime between memory sequences, we'll be able to do some modern missions in which Desmond can actually use various weapons and do stuff to foil Abstergo.

I started reading through the Assassin's Creed Wiki and I do like the idea of the the new assassin running around in Mongolia trying to take out Ghenis Kahn. This is, I'm just not entirely sure how they could wrap the Knight's Templar into it.

I'm also thinking this in terms of the trend in the game. It seems that the Assassin's are going forward in time. Altair, and then Ezio several hundred years later makes me think that the next assassin would come after Ezio Chronologically speaking.

Does anyone play Project Legacy on Facebook? I'm wondering when the new expansion is supposed to come out.

Just started on Brotherhood last night. Didnt play the first game but enjoyed the 2nd so was looking forward to this.

I noticed that when I first played the game! I was just running and then saw Optimus sticking out of a building...and I just sat there staring at it.
