Excitied, Dishonored comes out this week

:)

Goddamn it dishonored.
Don't fail me, like AC1 did.

I have been trying to manage my expectations, but Dunwall (as a game world) looks amazing. Game worlds and their immersion are supper important to me, mostly because they can give cohesion to a game and make it greater than the sum of its parts.

I got dishonored and code of princess preordered..

I'm also going to get retro city rampage for my vita..

So the Oct 9th release date for retro city is real? It's a cross buy game too but I'm playing on my vita. Seems perfect for it. Dishonored is a no brainier.

XCOM: Enemy Unknown - A Welcome Rebirth

XCOM: Enemy Unknown rebooted the series back in 2012, and has since inspired numerous new strategy game series to be born.

If someone gets into this I'd recommend getting the enemy within version. It's got all the dlc included so it's the better version. Wish the author would've atleast mentioned it. I didn't see it.

Fantastic game though. Xcom 2 is top notch also. I've spent countless hours in these games.

Excellent game.
Played to death on PS3 years ago.

What other games were inspired by this game?

JL2930176d ago

Gears Of War Tactics, Phoenix Point. Many others.

shinoff2183176d ago

Phoenix point if I remember was created by the original xcom developer or something to that affect. I did try gears tactics some months ago and I just couldn't get into it. It's probably just me

JL2930175d ago (Edited 175d ago )

It was, but it was really closer to the newer XCOM than the older ones. Gears Tactics was okay but was hard to get into knowing there probably wont be a sequel.

The Magic of 'Dishonored’s' Blink

It’s a shame, really, that so few games have “borrowed” Dishonored’s Blink – in the right hands, such a power could be game-changing.

It felt kinda cheap to me… both in terms as a tactic, and game design

Abnor_Mal430d ago (Edited 430d ago )

There was a small game called Aragami that “borrowed” the blink, that was a good game.

Unfortunately I heard the sequel wasn’t good so I stayed away from trying it out.

sairenfox2099428d ago

The sequel changed some of the mechanics from the first game but it was still a very polished and enjoyable experience. You should definitely give it a shot sometime. The game's currently on sale on Steam

Abnor_Mal428d ago

Okay thanks for the heads up, will look out for it being on sale one day.

I really did like the first and played it back to back as soon as I finished the first play through.
