    Never played it on 360 but overall i felt quite let down, it was no where near as good as people made it out to be, a good game nonetheless but not magnificent and i was expecting a better effort with the graphics in comparison to last gen.

    Dishonored is an excellent game but this version is just pointless. In a few months with the xbox backwards compatibility you can get the 360 version for a fraction of the price.

    Played Dishonoured through (twice) on the PS3 and it remains one of may all time favourite games, so I was unsure about buying the 'Bone 'ultimate' version - but I saw the digital version for £15 on the x'Bone store and I had a few games to trade so I did.

    Graphically it looks a bit sharper and feels a bit smoother than it did on the PS3 - but the cell shaded slightly cartoonish

    Graphically it looks a bit sharper and feels a bit smoother than it did on the PS3 - but the cell shaded slightly cartoonish graphics limit the improvement.

    I don't regret buying it, but I am getting sick of being sold 'remastered' versions of games I've already bought and played. even if they are 'the classics'. Its almost enough to make me go back to being a PC gamer to get the 'remastered' version from day one.

    Great, but too easy.

    Pros:
    - Great level design
    - Amazing DLC
    - Bringing stealth gameplay from the thief series back to life
    - Blink is amazing

    Cons:
    - You are way too overpowered (detective vision shouldn't be a part of this game)
    - Way too handholdy tutorial
    - Stealth is very nerved compared to Thief 1-3
    - It's too easy to get the best ending

    Dishonored: Definitive Edition is a fun, but flawed, experience. It’s a lot of fun to play, but the gameplay has not aged that well. The graphics also do not look great. The load times, finally, are horrible.

    it was pretty good. Nothing special. Just an interesting adventure, marred with occasional frustration, a stealth system that I did not like and a storyline and characters that seemed all a bit random? Also, the chaos system was just silly. Highlights were the setting and atmosphere. The worst parts were the cliche story and characters.

    It's clearly a rushed job, that is in many ways inferior to the PC version and it's locked on 30 frames per second. Still, it contains a great stealth-action game with all the DLC, and the technical problems are mostly negligible. If you never played the original this is still a pretty good deal.

    Fans of the series won't gain much from this iteration, but for those who haven't played Dishonored before, the Definitive Edition is a great game that's worth checking out.

    Dishonored: Definitive Edition is a lazy port of a great game.
