While not enough to topple the King of the Cutscene, Hideo Kojima, from his throne, Assassin's Creed II still has a respectable amount of "supplementary cutscenes" sprinkled throughout, according to the BBFC.

According to their website, the game has approximately 181 minutes and 30 seconds of "linear elements," with one minute and 30 seconds of it being a trailer for the Avatar video game. The big concern that seems to be commonly expressed is how much game time there is going to be to balance this out.
