After finishing ACII I'm kinda wondering where they plan to go next with the series. Things definitely are getting interesting, and I hope ACIII will solve most of the mysteries this one brought up.

I'd totally love that.
Personally I'm wondering why they purposefully didn't give him a brother named Luigi for the lulz.

You know at this point I'm wondering if they're going for a Scientology viewpoint. Though granted it tends to try and work in all forms of religion, but somehow I just get the feeling they're planning on this whole thing to relate to scientology.
Still a great series though. Honestly I'm wondering if the third game will center only on Desmond or if we'll get to see another one of his ancestors.

That humans were created by aliens, blah blah blah. It's a game, Aethos. I don't think it's gonna try and go after viewpoints of a religion.
Scientology is a bad sci-fi novel brought to life.

Yes, but how better to bring a novel to life than through a video game (or movie)?

Meh it's close enough to scientology if you ask me considering what was found in the vault.
Then again I always saw Assassin's Creed as more of a different version of the Da Vinci Code. The connection probably makes even more sense considering Da Vinci actually was in this game.

Well he was more of a Quartermaster than anything, but he may've gotten involved much more deeply between those 20 odd missing years and beyond in Ezio's life.

Assassins Creed II DLC, First will arrive in January 2010
Almost finished with the game, I'm glad that there will be DLC, I just hope it doesn't cost much.

Ubisoft has announced -- rather cryptically -- that Assassin's Creed 2 will receive two batches of downloadable content over the coming months. The first, entitled "Battle for Forli," will launch in January, 2010, followed by "Bonfire of the Vanities" in February. You're advised to have either a PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 (fairly important components for playing the base game, we might add), along with at least 1GB of free space for each download.
Ubisoft has promised to divulge more information later this month. If we were to don our speculation hats in the meantime -- if only to cover up our Robert Langdon hair -- we'd say that "Battle of Forli" will continue the story of Caterina Sforza, who made a brief and undignified cameo in the game as a boat tutorial. The second DLC, "Bonfire of the Vanities," will likely concern the mass burning of sinful objects in Florence. Remind us to toss some of those evil feathers on the bonfire.

DLC? Hopefully a patch as well soon to replay memory sequences. I heard some people didn't get the Fly Swatter trophy.

The DLC will have more then 1 GBs.
Each.
It's two expansions. But truth be told...
Why do that when you could have simply added it to the game itself? It's Prince of Persia all over again if the DLCs are rubbish.
Ubisoft, you stupid child! WHY DO YOU TAKE CHANCES!?

In a lot of ways DLC has become the industries answer to Gamestop. They can't really stop used game sales or trade-ins, despite the fact that they recieve no money from either. DLC, however, is a new revenue stream that can't be undercut, not to mention it encourages holding onto your games longer, which developers are all for in the days when people are trading in all their games to get new ones.
DLC is announced within a week of a games release these days at the very latest; it's the best counterattack the industry seems to have.
I don't much care for digital distribution though. So I usually skip DLC. Well, that's not true, I actually put off buying games. I wait for a Gold/Game of the Year/Ultimate edition nowadays; if one doesn't release, then I'll pick it up. It would be cheaper by then anyways.
