With Assassin's Creed III, Dishonored, and Hitman: Absolution all releasing around the same time, gamers aren't going to have time to play all the Assassin games. Many people will need to choose which game to play based on which has the superior quality. But what game will the be? Come and predict
Here are some reviews to help you out if needed. Note that I only used the OXM and OPM scores because those are the only two publications that have released scores for all three games. It was the only fair way
| Publication | Assassin's Creed 3 | Hitman: Absolution | Dishonored |
| Official Xbox Magazine score* | 80 | 90 | 90 |
| Official Playstation Magazine score* | 70 | 90 | 90 |
| Average of the two | 75 | 90 | 90 |
| Metacritic | 84/89 | 96** | 88/89 |

** Estimate
IMO, it looks like it's going to be a close tie between Dishonored and Hitman. Assassin's Creed shouldn't even be considered. If I had to pick between Dishonored and Hitman, I would have to choose Hitman because I heard from reliable sources that Absolution is the "peak for the series." Apparent, it's better than all of its predecessars. The same can't be said for Dishonored, now can it?
With the opinions of reviewers and your own intuition, which Assassin game will be the best this holiday?
