Abstract: When I think back on the greatest games I enjoyed when I was younger, games like Ultima Underworld and Thief II: The Metal Age, they all have one thing in common. They honored player intelligence and gave us endless possibilities for our creative impulse...
Dishonored 2 is a worthy sequel to Dishonored and provides great gameplay centered around an immersive storyline. The new Void game engine (DirectX 11), which is based on id software's RAGE engine, is a decent upgrade over Unreal Engine 3. Even so, I sti...

Incredible freeform stealth gameplay, Absolutely gorgeous world from start to finish, Inventive, fabulously well-designed missions, More varied than the original and no less deep
