The PC version has a 90 rating now (and 89 on 360, 88 on PS3). Will pick this up once the Steam holiday sale comes to town.

Ohh come on Pezus. We must support new IPS. Otherwise we will only get "Assassincs Creed 43" and "Call of Duty War of the Super Soldiers Badasses 13"

Without a doubt you will be getting Dishonored 2+3 within the next 3 to 4 years.

no. If this game makes profit then we might a sequel in 3 to 4 years. But certainly not a yearly release

This game will make profit and - my predition - will get a sequel in 2014 at the latest.

I just checked some websites (i.e. not only English speaking, but also German sites couldn't wait to post their reviews as soon as the embargo ended, as GER sites tend to still be a bit more PC-centric their ratings are a tad lower) and realized that Dishonored is one of those rare and strange cases where all western reviewers and quite a few gamers couldn't wait to get their hands on it as if there was a secret pact (I'm not judging, just observing). Which means the (imo by a few reviewers suddenly and retrospectively overrated) developer Arkane Studios did something very right. I'm just not sure what exactly it is. In the past neither the cyberpunk setting nor the reportedly Thief-like gameplay garantueed as much attention and success as this game will get. It may also have to do with the fact that some reviewers romanticize co-designer Harvey Smith (ex-Origin Systems, ex-Ion Storm) into a industry legend just because he was part of the System Shock/Deus Ex/Thief 3 development teams. Anyway, with review round-ups already popping up everywhere, with 24 reviews already posted on gamerankings, it is clear that a new franchise was born today. It could be a big one.
