GamesBeat: Dishonored lets you take sweet, sweet revenge (review)

Dishonored nails the Thief-style gameplay while missing the BioShock-quality story that would’ve elevated it into something truly special. It’ll have to settle for amazingly cool instead. The impressive depth, range, and balance earn this one an easy recommendation despite a few hiccups and one dreary, excessively long level. Gamers who don’t feel the need for repeat plays might not get their money’s worth, but for me, one spin through Dunwall wasn’t enough. The care and imagination that went into Dishonored makes each return visit worthwhile. 86/100

Hmm, I might wait for a discount. It sounds dope, though.

Definitely adding it to my GameFly queue.

Any game where you stab people through the neck and control satanic magic gets my money.

It's gonna be tough to decide between this and X-COM...

[wastedcells]

Tuff call two very different games. Xcom will probably drop down 20 bucks before Xmas.

I guess the embargo has lifted. I just ordered mine 31euro's for the pc version is a steal.

Cool gonna Check out the web for more reviews. Not gonna read them tho just check the scores. Want to go in fresh since it drops in a day. Especially since its a new IP. Going in with only having seen the E3 coverage.

I love stealth
for it's challenge, for it's more realistic NPC behavior, and usually for the stories that come along with the genre. I really hope this game is good, because it is interesting from a story stand point and from a gameplay stand point also, but some of it just seems not very challenging, I'll wait for more reviews.

[LouisGarcia]

Hmm... Might get it when it drops to $20.

[deantak]

Uh, where's my copy!

[Lifeequals42]
