Support NeoGAF

Looks like it's lived up to the hype then.

Four autosaves? That is great for a game like this. Especially if you go for something like the no kill achievement.

Not only that but manual save anywhere is awesome. So glad they didn't forget about that. I'm definitely going to be playing multiple runs.

Manual save is something I expected. 4 autosaves is awesome if you forget to save yourself. Sometimes I am so caught up in what is going on that I don#t save my progress even if I am trying something difficult.

REUPLOAD of the CVG review. Get it quick guys!!

Edit: For those who want nothing spoiled. Don't worry, this video doesn't seem to spoil anything, it's mostly the same footage we've seen already but with two people talking about the game in a pretty general way. It seems like the reviewer wanted to praise this(which he did) without giving anything away.

[Moofers]

I already knew I wanted this on day one (ever since I saw it at E3 this year) but I think its time I go throw them a pre-order because this just looks so awesome that I want to support it as much as possible.

PS3 version for me!

 

[Camp Lo]

What is the tiff about the loading time? Is that just for 360 users? I haven't experienced anything too bad on the PS3 version.

Does the PS3 version have a mandatory install?

 

[Camp Lo]

what's up with ToysRUs breaking the street date?

Not every game is required to be held until street date. Some games, like this one, can be sold as soon as it gets put into their system; you just have to ask if they them in stock and if they're willing to check if it rings up on the register, you can get it.

Games like AC3 won't ring up UNTIL its street release, but they have them in stock long before. This is what the TRU clerk told me when he sold me Dishonored.

Does the PS3 version have a mandatory install?

Yes, 5 GB. I'm assuming it's not mandatory for 360 with all this loading time talk.

 

[fluffydelusions]

Does the PS3 version have a mandatory install?

Yeah, 5gb

 

[Xater]

Yes, 5 GB. I'm assuming it's not mandatory for 360 with all this loading time talk.

I don't think any 360 game has a mandatory install. So yeah that might be the reason.

 

[Spookie]

Any words on if it's worth it to get the PC version or if you should stick to the console versions? Is the PC version just a shitty port?

They played the onstage demo of Dishonoured at Eurogamer on a PC. People have already posted all the graphical settings and it has support for custom FoV's.

It's a solid PC game.

I'm unsure as to when the 25% off code will become inactive, but I'd imagine it'll go for at least the next 3 days or so.

Even still, GMG has similar promotions all the time so if you couldn't buy it now, you could/can in the very near future with a similar discount. Though, it's still good now though if you don't want to wait. GMG generally doesn't have better than 25% off codes either, so it's about as good as it gets.

 

[epmode]

I've found that even shitty PC ports tend to be the definitive versions. Recent exceptions: Satint's Row 2, Dark Souls (in the 30 minutes before Durante's patch was released).

 

[Vyse The Legend]

Does this game have any RPG mechanics or is it more shooter-y than a Deus Ex?

The mom and pop store near me has it already, but I'm still undecided.

 

[EatChildren]

Made a bunch of avatars from the Tales from Dunwall shorts, if anybody wants them.

 

[kami_sama]

Mine!

This is my favorite one. So cool.

edit: I don't change my avatar as I like to have a quasi E-identity(?) but this is the most bad ass one for sure. Holy Crap deserves this one, as long as he gives us more delicious first impressions of his playthrough.

 

[Camp Lo]

Snagged the best one. Thanks!

 

[The Chef]

God that CVG review got me so hyped.
"If you think you should be able to do something in the game it will let you do that."
"A once in a generation sort of game"
Holy crap.

Sweet Avatars Children

 

[EdibleExplosives]

I'll take this one, thanks!

 

[Derrick01]

Someone needs to make a set of avatars from the game itself. I'd gladly change my avatar for the first time for this game.

 

[lettermassing]

How many hours until this goes up on Steam like in America? Might do what I did with Deus Ex and use a VPN to play it early.

Is anyone else getting Bioshock vibes right about now?

 

[AHA-Lambda]

I'll take this one, thanks!

dammit, you beat me by seconds

I don't know, the animated shorts are cool as hell.

You cant. How will I recognize you!

 

[Derrick01]

You cant. How will I recognize you!

I will have to make a series of provocative statements with my new avatar to get people to adjust!

 

[The Chef]

I'll whip some avatars up. Give me a minute.
Dont feel pressured to use any

We all know only Famitsu is the only credible source of video game reviews these days. I will wait for their review.

 

[jaaz]

Watched the CVG review. The powers look awesome. How do they keep them from being over-powered? Like the stasis or bullet-time power. Is there like a mana-type pool or cool-down mechanic?

You have a limited amount of mana. Not sure if you can refill it during a mission.

Nice to see this doesn't look like it will turn out like Rage did.

Poor Jensen, but his time was done.

[TheVoidDragon]

Quite like this one, thanks.

 

[Derrick01]

Thanks.

I wanted that one at first but I'm pretty sure I've seen someone on gaf with that avatar already. Or something really close to it at least.

Quite like this one, thanks.

Not so fast!

edit: caught your edit :lol

 

[EdibleExplosives]

So, I'm probably gonna pre-order this tomorrow even though I really shouldn't be spending any money right now.

dammit, you beat me by seconds

Lol, sorry about that.

 

[Mr. Sam]

I appreciate I'm a few pages late, but fantastic OP - one of my favourites.

I managed to play a good chunk of Dishonored at Eurogamer; it was pretty fantastic. I love how the game accommodates your ingenuity and encourages creativity. Unfortunately, I've pretty much spent my annual gaming allowance on pre-orders for Pokemon White 2 and Halo 4 - I know, I know - so I'll only be picking this up soon if I can find a good deal somewhere.

I'd like to claim this one. Thanks Chef

The GB quick is tomorrow, I can't wait for Famitsu and I don't think they're as credible. I know that sounds crazy, but there you go.

 

[Luigi87]

damn now its a buy again... is the 15 off on GMG stopping tuesday. or is it longer... game looks amazing

The code expires tomorrow at 11AM UTC. That's just under 15 hours from me writing this.

 

[SniperHunter]

I was being sarcastic, famitsu gave RE6 39/40....

 

[Sleeplessnights]

ALRIGHT MAN, MY BAD.

So RE6 is the scale now?

 

[Brannon]

On an off note, saw the game on the shelves of Toys 'R Us (Near Lenox Mall, Atlanta, GA, USA) in the PS3 section.

So there's that.

 

[IcyRhythms]

Rage is actually a good game for the first three hours. Great gunplay/shooting mechanics and then the game just takes a turn for the worse. Easily one of the worst games I've ever played.

 

[Tess3ract]

But it's longer, so that means the game is better.

Just because the game is longer doesn't mean it's better. Many games outstay their welcome.

However $60 for a 5 hour game if you don't do anything else is kind of...expensive.

 

[SparkTR]

I pre-ordered it on GMG, the videos look too much like Thief for me to ignore. Even if it's a System Shock 2 -> Bioshock kind of drop it'll still be worth it I guess.
