If what you're trying to do is reunite a divided people, collecting flags at high points within the city could work well within the context of the game. But it remains to be seen, I guess. Could just be fancy talk for coins.
Your link is interesting and relevant, however if you properly submit it as an article you get a DKP bonus for it. If you scroll down on any page dedicated to a stock (game, system, or company) on the bottom there should be a link for submit article. Clicking on it will bring up a form on the right to submit the web link headline etc.
Here's a fairly in-depth Gamespot article on my highest anticipated game of 07, Assassins Creed. In the article they explain how much richer the gameplay is going to be than previously exhibited.
We saw a lot of cool stuff at last weeks annual Penny Arcade Expo, but few things had the crowd abuzz like the live Assassins Creed demo on the second day.
@Makidian, The only "disappointing" thing that I saw in the article was that there was a bug which was stated to already be fixed in the office but not in the E3 build. The game is a few months out still, bugfixes will be coming. I'm still very excited about this game, and I know a LOT of other people are as well.
The word from our man onsite at this morning's Microsoft conference is dismaying - Assassin's Creed is looking bad. And, having watched the walkthrough on video we can see what's worrying our frontline-camping chap.
