Subject: Dishonored, or Far Cry 3?

Debates are like jaw breakers; you eat away at one layer, only to find another lying beneath. Also, they cause people to choke up and die sometimes. True story.

Im looking for a game that I can pick up over the Christmas break with a good, specifically single-player experience. Im leaning heavily towards FC3, given that it seems more standard, as far as shooters go, which seems like a safer bet, but Dishonored's vibe and overall uniqueness are intriguing, too... frak.

Has anyone here actually played both?? DX

Dishonored is probably one of my new absolute favorite games.

I heard Dishonored was disappointing.
Far cry 3 looks amazing, I bought far cry 2 at GameStop the other day for $7 and its really fun. I'd go with FC3.

dishonored is very satisfying for a linear game, but far cry 3 due to more content.

This seems to be the case, from what I've seen. Much larger experience, more features, VS and Co-op play on top of the Single-player... and it seems like most people are going for FC3, even if it isn't out yet. XD

Just to clarify, I've never played any of the FC games.

I think you might want to get farcry 3 , I found Dishonored a fantastic game but depending on your playstyle it can be a short game 6 hour game or a 20 hour game , it's nice but i farcry 3 is open world and dishonored is linear with some exploration. i think farcry 3 has more content as well but i haven't been following it too much

  • 11.28.2012 5:16 PM PDT

Far Cry 3 will give you a lot more content for the money. Dishonored is a good game for sure, but FC3 is the one game I've been looking forward to all year.

Dishonored is my GOTY. Anybody that does not purchase Dishonored for any reason other than a lack of funds is why the gaming industry is becoming so crappy.

Dishonored is an original take on concepts. It's innovative. In a sea of standard shooters, this is something unique in the industry. It is fascinating, has a fantastic world, and interesting characters. The plot is nothing special, but the overall story is. The world feels real. It is a must buy.

It's out in Australia. Out tomorrow in Europe.

OT: Definitely Far Cry 3. Looks like the best game of the year in my opinion.

Dishonored is a great game and I recommend you to play it.

However, Far Cry 3 will be a lot longer and have much more content in single player alone. Plus there is the competitive multiplayer and a co-op mode. And not to forget FC's amazing map editor. The escape maps people made in FC2 were incredible.

If I ever see anyone post in a thread "That's your opinion", I immediately lose all respect for them.

Also, if you're discussing a topic with me and you resort to name calling, pull "life checks", or just call anything you don't agree with retarded without giving legitimate reasons, don't expect me to take you serious in anyway what so ever.

I can tell you that Dishonored is mediocre. It's fun and something new, but it's lacking that certain something that would make it amazing.

BUT if you had to pick between Dishonored and Far Cry 3, I would pick Far Cry 3.
