    I finished Dishonoured last week - enjoyed it immensely.

        Actually I found getting a "non-lethal" level completion extremely satisfying. It's quite a challenge on some of the levels.

        It's also extremely satisfying to stab a guard in the neck and throw him off a bridge though….

          love non lethal stealth.  I love Dishonored also, but I stopped playing while doing the last level, need to go back and finish

            I agree - the aspect that calls to me is the freedom to tackle missions in any way you choose. You can go through and blast everyone in the face if that's your play style or you can use non-lethal stealth. Most of us would probably use some combo of those styles.

            I can't freaking wait until Far Cry 3 next week… Open world ARPGs are my absolute favorite.

              im considering Far Cry 3 as well.  Its getting good reviews, and open world games are fantastic.

                @xchen:

                Did anyone play Sleeping Dogs? Picked up a rental from RedBox this morning.

                Also, finally played Journey yesterday - BREATHTAKING!

                Played Journey a couple of days ago, loved it but wished it was longer. Also how did you find sleeping dogs? i'm thinking of getting the enter the dragon style martial art competition DLC.

                  Played about 3 hours into it and ended up returning it - there were aspects of it I liked more than GTA4 and I thought it was a good effort. A friend of mine loved it and beat the while thing in about 3 days.

                  I really suck at fighting games though and found myself struggling with even the early fight sequences. I'd like to be able to use a gun at any time but I understand that's not the game they were trying to make so I don't fault them for it.

                    Waiting for Metal Gear Revengeance, Kingdom Hearts 3. Not so happy with the new Devil May Cry (storywise)

                      At first I was really sceptical towards Metal Gear Revengeance, but after playing the demo I think it will be an alright game, not so sure about the new characters introduced in the cutscenes though. It's selling out the whole series a bit IMHO, but it's a spin-off though…

                      Dishonored is one of the best games of the year, this is how I wished Deus Ex: Human Revolution would have turned out (not that it was a bad game). These kind of games are amongst my favourite genres. It could have been longer and a bit more open-world, some levels very too linear. Looking forward to Dishonored 2.

                      Need to find out if I like FC3 this weekend.

                      By the way, did none of you guys get the new Hitman Absolution? Played the first game a long time ago. The story is so ridiculous, but I cannot really say that I hate it. Killer nuns, srlsy? I am close to finishing it, but I still don't know what I should think of it, especially the introduced Instinct-feature. It's too much trial and error, which the old ones were not if you had a good plan.

                        Yep, I got Hitman Absolution and have been playing it on and off for the last couple of weeks.  It hasn't grabbed me as much as I thought it would.  There are too many stealth levels and not enough assassination missions.  I remember reading a review in which the reviewer gave it 7.5/10 and that's pretty much how I would rate it; adequate, but not outstanding.

                        At the moment I'm seriously looking forward to Bioshock Infinite.  If there's any game likely to live up to its pre-release hype, this has to be it.  Gameplay and design look spectacular.

                              Downloaded Endless Space on steam the other day.  Fantastic strategy/4x game, but man is it dense…

                                  ^ Yep, it's been a long time since I've even thought about that game!

                                    Got to waste (aka enjoy) a few hours of my holiday playing Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition on my wife's iPad.  Fantastic to revisit it after so many years.

                                        I loved that game! Got 2 but haven't started it yet.

                                          Oh damn, I cannot believe how many hours I've lost enjoyed while playing Mass Effect and ME2.  I'm still finishing a character before I start ME3.  I'm almost afraid to pop that disc in the Xbox.  I know my wife isn't going to be happy about it.:)
