Out of nowhere came Dishonored .. and it was amazing!

User Rating: 9 | Dishonored X360
OK let's get real, Dishonored is made by Bethesda .. you know, the same Bethesda that made Morrowwind, Oblivion, Skyrim and Fallout. Just on studio reputation, the game should be good, right?

Nope .. it's fantastic.

At this point, I should mention that I prefer swords to guns, so shooter games aren't my thing in general. Ok .. on with the review.

Set in a steampunk era, Corvo is the wrongly accused bodyguard of murdering the Empress.With a era rampant with industrialism, smoke, pollution, and rats (plague ridden aggressive rats, no less), you set out as an assassin to right the wrongs. Dishonored is a visual masterpiece. The color, depth and detail of the city is just amazing, while the character development is innovative.

There are only 9 missions. Nine! Now while some think that nine is small number and you can blow through this game, you're probably also the type of player to fly through Oblivion in a couple of days. In Dishonored, take the time to investigate, search every corner, get lost in Dunwall .. and get even!
