Dishonored Launch Week: Riding the midnight train to Reviewville
It’s a big, shiny example of so much we keep asking for in games, but rarely get. Luckily, the best way to vindicate it is to buy and then play an amazing game.” – PC Gamer (92/100)
Polygon (9/10) – “With everything against it, Arkane has created a game with a unifying vision and design that stands apart from its contemporaries as something different. But more importantly, Dishonored succeeds as an ambitious game not content to take one thing and do it well.”That’s one of many highlights from all the reviews pouring in for Dishonored. With under 24 hours until the game launches in North America, there’s plenty of reviews to read up on.
Before heading off to bed, here’s a quick rundown:
Gamespot (9/10) – “It’s a rare game that feels so compulsively replayable, but Dishonored is such a game.”
EDGE (9/10) – “It’s a rare delight to play a game with such consistency of vision, its art design, level architecture, rulesets, storylines and writing all working in lockstep.”
Revision3 (video review above) – “It’s detailed and engaging and unique. It’s one of the best game of the year.”
Official PlayStation Magazine(9/10) - It succeeds because it gives you the freedom to mastermind incredible set-pieces for yourself, rather than showing you a scripted sequence. It’s as good as first-person gaming gets, and it’s set in one of the most original gameworlds in years, calling to mind Half-Life 2’s oppression-ravaged streets, and an intricate level design style reminiscent of Deus Ex, System Shock and Thief games from the old days, necromancing gaming maxims that seem to have all but died in recent times.”
The Escapist (5/5) – “Grab it so you’ll know what everyone is talking about when the Game of the Year conversations start happening.”
GameSpy(4.5.5) – “A supernatural work of videogame art.”
CVG (9.5/10) – “One of the greatest game of this generation.”
Kotaku – “It’s a bizarre, eclectic blend, the type of combination that might seem too ambitious to work. But the resulting game is nothing short of a masterpiece.”
Rock, Paper, Shotgun - “Dishonored is a work of rare imagination and skill, the sort of thing that can’t simply be copied and repeated.”
Destructoid (9/10) – “Dishonored is that game of 2012. It’s the big intellectual property that comes to retail and shows up the competition by being bold, original, and — more importantly — brilliant. Easily deserving of its place among the BioShocks and the Borderlandses, Arkane’s aggressive, non-aggressive, unsubtle, sneaky, thoroughly versatile tale of intrigue makes for the kind of game that reminds us this generation isn’t all straightforward shooters and “me too” trend-seekers.”
GameArena (10/10) – “Dishonored, like Thief, or Deus Ex, is one of those timeless games you’ll play a dozen times.”
IGN (9.2/10) – “Players who really take the time to enjoy the experience are rewarded too. The more runes, bone charms and money you find, the more you can augment and upgrade your character, and the more bad-ass you’ll become.”
OXM (9/10) – “ Arkane Studios has crafted what’s likely the year’s best new IP, and by tapping into elements of so many of this generation’s greatest games, this adventure sneaks up, grabs you, and won’t let go.”
Joystiq (4.5.5) – “Dishonored is remarkably polished, bending stealth action in new directions and offering plenty of freedom.”
GamesRadar (4.5/5) – “Dishonored is a game that you won’t want to miss.”
Giant Bomb (4/5) – “Dishonored is an excellent game, and one worthy of your attention.”
Game Informer (8.75/10) – “The team at Arkane Studios has injected an array of cool possibilities into the simulated city of Dunwall, and discovering them all is a blast.”
Phew! That’s a lot of late night reading. We’ll be sharing plenty more throughout Dishonored’s launch week.

ce ziceam...video PS3 de la gamespot..
si tema:
Am gasit un mic cartonas cand faceam curat in camera: Corvo Mask Avatar Item
Sa se bucure cel care apuca sa tasteze mai repede
Era interesant dacă cel care l-a folosit menționa acest lucru.
Apare in stoc la Media Galaxy Feeria

eu unul il voi cumpara peste cateva luni cand va scadea pretul(poate holiday price cut)...e un joc bun dar nu am de ce sa-l iau la lansare..nu are MP si nici vreun pre-order bonus substantial..
Si probabil vor aparea si DLC-uri (multe) si nu merita sa dai $50 pe el acum cand poti da $50,sau mai putin pe tot pachetul.Originally Posted by darkpaul13

Prima impresie:
Am jucat de cateva ori prima misiunea pentru a vedea cum se misca treburile. Pana acum nu am avut nici o problema tehnica (@PS3), totul merge impecabil. Din replay-urile mele am observat ca toate tipurile de gameplay sun viabile: stealth, assassin, melee, power user.
Pentru primul play voi continua pe parte de melee, weapons si gadgets fara power use.

un prieten se tot joaca de 4-5 ore incoace (la doar 24 de lire pe pc, spun ca e ok)...eu? eu astept sa se mai ieftineasca un pic versiunea de ps3
Jocul este bun, dar cea mai mare dezamagire a mea este ca, probabil din prostia mea, credeam ca este un oras "open world" in care faci diferite misiuni, intr-o anumita ordine dar ca in timpul misiunilor nu te poti abate de la traseu (esti oarecum limitat, dupa cum spuneau producatorii la doar cele cateva modalitate de a finaliza misiunea).
Dar de fapt, jocul este doar mission based si pentru fiecare misiune esti dus intr-o alta locatie iar dupa ce termini misiunea, trebuie sa ajungi la iesire si gata.
Nici grafic, nu se ridica la asteptarile facute dupa vizionarea filmuletelor/imaginilor dinaintea lansarii.
Sa nu mai zic de cele mai deranjante lucruri "minore" care lipsesc cu desavarsire, gen animatie pentru deschis usi, chiar si pentru alergat, faptul ca personajul principal nu exista (cand te uiti in jos) si nici nu are umbra (chair si in locurile in care totul are umbra) si nu are nici macar voce.
Este pur si simplu un Thief cu puteri paranormale. Ceea ce nu-l face un joc rau. Doar ca eu personal ma asteptam la mai mult...
e o gura de aer proaspat in marea asta de filme interactive...iar pentru asta eu unul ii iert multe...apropo de Thief..cea de-a 4-a parte a seriei e in development la Eidos Montreal(DE Human Revolution)
Are un feeling de Bioshock jocul. Unul foarte mare. Dar mare.
Sau chiar deloc. Mie imi aduce aminte de Undying ... cel putin dupa cateva minute de butonat.
Jocul e misto pe partea de gameplay, iar grafic nu sta asa rau cu totul pe setari maxime, insa se observa consolizarea dpdv grafic, intrucat limitarea conservelor a facut ca pt Pc sa nu existe detalii mai multe. Povestea nu e geniala, dar nici de lepadat, fiind integrata bine in ansamblul jocului. Oricum, e ok si asa. Il voi cumpara dc va exista o reducere de pret, poate in noiembrie in cadrul black friday, insa la pretul intreg in niciun caz. Neavand multi nici nu e graba.
