Ready to hear about the game I believe to be the best one out there? If you guessed Dishonored, you would be absolutely correct. I myself am not a major video game player, but I found myself captivated by the story-line and the game play. Fight off legions of people out for your head! Save the Princess! Reclaim your honor! KICK SOME ASS!!! Dishonored; if you haven't played it yet, DOOOOO ITTTT!
So Dishonored is a first person "shooter" game in the style of Steam Punk. You play Corvo, who is the empress' body guard/ close friend. You fail at fighting off attackers and thus the empress is killed and her daughter is captured. If that isn't bad enough, you yourself are charged with her murder by her less then savory council (who you don't have to be a rocket scientist to come to the conclusion that THEY are behind it). The game starts with you at this point escaping from prison (which is hard, let me tell you). And meeting up with a rebellious party who seeks vengeance for their late empress. The rest of the game is slowly killing off each member of her killing party, finding the princess, etc. I have not made it past a certain point, so I am still a little behind in what happens, but let me tell you so far it is an awesome game. I love it because unlike other first person shooter games, there is a story; a quest you must adhere to. Those games are my favorite, and I get made fun of for liking such games as "Lego Harry Potter" (well, the Lego games in general), but I like having goals in a story line.
