No Assassin's Creed II demo, says Ubisoft

We're sure you'd all love to take Ezio for a spin around the lot before you part ways with your precious cash, but according to Connected Consoles, you'll have no such luck.

During London's Eurogamer Expo, a Ubisoft rep told the site that there aren't any plans for an Assassin's Creed II demo.

Bummer? Yeah. But it's not so bad. Early reviews have the stab-happy sequel pegged as being pretty great, so it's not like we're blindly sending our piggy banks to the slaughter.
