The "Is X Game Any Good" Thread

[Blue Barrett]

I have a couple games to ask about. Haven't played them and didn't feel like opening that many threads. Thought this might be of good use for everyone else in the future as well. So here goes:


Tom Clancey's Splinter Cell Conviction
Assassin's Creed - Brotherhood
Assassin's Creed - Revealations
(Keep in mind I stopped playing Assassin's Creed after Director's Cut so if there's any other catching up I might need to enjoy the series, let me know. I want to get in to AC again)
Dishonored
Sleeping Dogs


Anyone played any of these? How was it? Worth the time?

It should be pretty big ... and you get 1 extra hour exclusive on PS4

Wow didn't know they were releasing it for PS4. Hmmm.

I had the impression that Sleeping Dogs was just a poor man's GTA

AC: Brotherhood is great, Revelations is shat and Dishonored is utterly brilliant.

I have not played the rest.

Is the AC Brotherhood a new story? Or do I have to play a previous AC to understand it better?

Wouldn't really call it a GTA spinoff tbh. It's the story and combat that is interesting. Driving and navigating is annoying and not that realistic as GTA

that and the sand box may not be as big as GTA and all but the detail in it is amazing 

BTW anyone played the yakuza series ??

About Dishonored, I ABSOLUTELY SUCK at FPS. I bought BF3 and can only play the story mode. I get OWNED every time I go online or play someone else. I generally suck at FPS games. I did like the gameplay of Dishonored I found on youtube tho. Idk if I should get it.

[Freeza]

You won't regret playing ACII, that game was freaking mindblowing

[pUsHa]

I'm sorry BB ... I thought you we're talking about Watch Dogs 

damn all these dogssss

Don't worry brah its only a single player, think Bioshock but in a Industrial era steampunk style setting.

And add Thief to that for teh Stealth

Dishonored was disappointing.  It's a rental but not worth buying.

+1

oddly enough I started playing Dishonored two days ago, shelved indefinitely after an hour, more so due to me being exhausted from gaming recently, but it was pretty underwhelming.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

You all suck

[Kaladin]

May i ask what disappointed you in Dishonored RO

[Tomwin Lannister]

Never did complete AC 2

Might have to do that tomorrow, I think when I bought it it was along with like 4 other games, and you know how it is. You end up sticking to 1 or 2 and forgetting you own the rest

I must complete every game I neglected before the PS4 takes its rightful place on the Iron throne (My desk)
