I haven't tried it yet, but can you use a smoke bomb in a crowd and then attack a target? I've only done it to GTFO.
OH! Punching minstrels is the shit too. That sounds like a good band name actually.
The game is full of awesome moments like that. I yelled out after killing the 10 armored guards in under 1 minute. I casually poisoned the first 5 before the clock started running. They started flailing their swords around in their death-throes, and in the confusion, I ordered my hired mercenaries to attack the rest. While engaged in that fight, I pulled off hidden blade/dagger finishing moves on the remaining 5. So fucking awesome. And yeah, rooftop kills never get old.

I LOVED the first AC for the 360, but now I'm debating whether or not to get AC2 for the 360 or wait until early next year for the PC version. Any thoughts?
Of note, I have a badass PC that can play any game at full resolution.

Why are you even asking? The best version is always worth waiting for.
Right now, the only game I bought for the PC that's dramatically better than the console version is Dragon Age.
I'm not sure if there's going to be any major difference between the PC and console versions for AC2. Did you get or know anyone who got the first AC for the PC? Was it better than the console version?

AC1 on PC had (slightly) more mission types, but I found it to be worse overall thanks to a horrible audio bug that made about half the dialogue in the game stutter.
There's no way it's going to be as PC-centric as Dragon Age but I still prefer a competent PC port to console stuff. After all, 1600p is better than 720p. And the game will only run better over time while the console release will be forever stuck at 30 FPS.
Thanks guys. I guess I'll have to wait and see what the PC version looks like.
I still have CoD MW2 and Dragon Age to finish, so I can hold off on getting this game...for now.

Yeah. This works well for the achievement for blinding four people at once as well.
I do kinda hate how tough I'm finding the sweeping and kill 10 guards without getting hit achievements are for the wrong reasons. Actually getting a spear and five guards is a pain in the ass, and getting ten people to kill is like the hardest thing in the game. I either run out of guards with none anywhere nearby or half the group eventually runs off screaming. Stand and fight, assholes.
