Yeah, it's hard to explain. Think Call of Duty, the series hardly uses numbers in the titles any more. It's called World at War, but people still call it number 5 in the series. I personally think Ubisoft aren't going to have a number in the title of AC3, but something similar to what this installment is. Y'know? Anyway, another reason why this game is AC 3 is because it's really not meant to be a totally different game/setting. AC: Brotherhood doesn't take a huge leap in the series like AC 3 will do. So it just sits in the AC Series as intended, but it's not meant to be AC 3, which will be smack-bang awesome! :D
