I added some zeros at the beginning and end to disguise it a bit.

Like Greenpenguino and Red five?!?!? [/scorned]

How awesome would it be if that was my real serial number?

Someone out there has to have it, right? I think your new hobby should be tracking down and collecting EVERYTHING with that serial number.

I still can't believe Assassin's Creed II did that to me... I spent way more time playing that game over the last few days than I'd really care to admit, and now it is all gone. I even took the time to painstakingly collect every collectable I could as I went along. I had ever feather except for the ones in Venice, all the statues, and all but two seals... renovated every building, built one of each kind of shop as was working toward upgrading them... healthy amount of art purchases... *sob*

That is truly tragic. It makes me think it can't be the physical disk... that it must either be some bug you walked into the way you (and others) played the game (not that it's your fault- just that it's a software bug that doesn't affect everybody) or some hardware specific thing. It really is bizarre.

Did you get to the Glyphs yet? That was one of my favourite parts of ACII. I think you would like them. Surely if you've been collecting everything else, you were collecting/solving glyphs?
