I’m lucky that my wife is a gamer. We spend time a lot of time sitting in front of TV playing PS3 game together. Maybe that’s why my DS is collecting dust 😀

Lately, we’ve been playing Assassin’s Creed 2 together. We played and finished the first series and really enjoy it. The second Assassin’s Creed (AC) has Italian Renaissance as the settings which makes us love it even more!

AC2 only supports 1 player so we take turns, just like how we played AC1 or Prince of Persia. There is no rule how we divide our turn. Basically, we both play every game mode: assassin missions, exploration, or race. Then I notice how different me and my wife play the game.

My wife prefer dueling or fighting the guards directly while I prefer assassinating my target silently. She has no problem facing several guards at a time and got the No-Hitter trophy/achievement easily. On the other hand, I’m not that good in direct duel. Maybe that’s because I am more impatient in fighting and loves to bash the button aggresively.

But when it comes to kill the target without being noticed or escaping the guards, my wife usually pass the controller to me 🙂

It’s a good thing that in AC2 you can play the game anyway you like.
