I can't decide which system to have it on...and which store. I live in the midwest so all we have is gamestop, walmart, and bestbuy. my computer has been put on hold apparently my bro is needed in guam since there have been some stuff in the asian nations...hope its not too serious. He is in the airforce anyways. I do have an xbox...I want a ps3. so there...lol I can't decide and its getting way too close for comfort.

Wait what systems do you have? if it is between xbox and ps3 than its really up to you I decided on PS3 for the simple fact my live ends the same day dishonored coes out and my controller is busted on my 360 so it will cost me a ton to get a new controller and live but both systems will probably be the same. It is a single player only game so it's not like you need to play with friends. But if you dont have a PS3 and have a Xbox than obviously you dont need to buy a PS3 to play it.

I just got done talking to my big bro...he says I might need to upgrade the videocard on the new computer so yeah...Thanks Arisendragon for your advice I will go with the xbox...now to get my boyfriend to try playing it...he needs TO KNOW THIS GAME!!! lol

Yeah if your video card isn't that great then get it for the 360.

Definately 360.

Even running Dishonored at low settings on the PC is probably about the equivalent of playing it on the consoles, not to mention the other bonuses that come with playing on PC. So if your PC is capable, I'd recommend going with that. But if consoles are the only option, then yeah, I'd recommend going with the 360 because with multiplatform games, the PS3 versions are seemingly the ones that always have the most problems, if any.

That's not ALWAYS the case and sometimes the 360 versions of some games could end up worse than the ps3 ones. It is really up to the developers and how they compare but it really doesnt matter for a single player game this isn't call of duty or halo.

I think you still have time to pre-order. In fact, I did mine today.

I would recommend the Xbox 360 version of the game and one of the following (I personally chose Best Buy):

• Gamestop Bonus
  
  • Void Channel: Duration/Damage bonus for your powers
    
  • White Rat Friend: White rats are friendly to you instead of hostile
    
  • Gutter Feast: Eat white rats to replenish your mana

ooooh the bestbuy one is the one I will go for then...:3 my birthday gift from my boyfriend....since he got all mad when I didn't want anything other than dishonored AHAHAHAHA

My pre order is for the Xbox version,but I'm sure I'll end up getting the PS3 version too. Its not a deal breaker for me by any means,but the textures on the 360 didnt look all that great.

Oh yeah you played it right. That could be the antialiasing I heard that fxaa is kinda blurry but at least there using mlaa for the ps3 which is fantastic.

ooooh the bestbuy one is the one I will go for then...:3 my birthday gift from my boyfriend....since he got all mad when I didn't want anything other than dishonored AHAHAHAHA

There you go! He can't say no to that, right?

I would also add that, I'm getting Dishonored for the Xbox 360 because it's a complete game according to the developer. In other words, no planned DLC at the moment. The PS3, in my opinion, is usually a safe choice for DLC-related games simply because buying it there is easier (and sometimes cheaper) than purchasing Microsoft Points. Also, free multiplayer. But, since that doesn't apply to Dishonored and future DLC has not been discussed yet, any system is a safe bet. Hope that helps.

Food for thought: if you were to go the PS3 route---Day One digital, instant midnight and PS+ will give you 10% off (if you were to become a member). There's also a good deal going on, member or not I believe, where if you spend 100 in the month of October you'll get 20 back. Found that out when browsing the One Piece PS3 boards on GFAQs. I'll try to find the blog post confirming that promotion.

Dem cards! But maybe the DLC pack from GS isn't a good fit. Send your boyfriend in here for a minute and we'll browbeat him into a second copy on the other system and everybody wins

yeah that is true not sure if it will unlock at midnight but I am getting it at gamestop cause of the cards.

I might end up going this route since I was considering a second copy, so if I do I'll let you know if it's instant unlock. Someone on e-bay had a copy that was out there, supposedly, for sale now. I inquired to the guy how he got it, told him I'd want expedited shipping and that if it didn't come before the sixth I'd want a refund. He doubled up on what I believe to be a bluff and said if I paid 20 for expedited shipping I could have it tomorrow. Went to sleep and it was sold. I really wanted to message the buyer and tell him/her to do expedited or the delivery estimate (Oct. 3rd-Oct.17th) would just so happen to swing toward the 9th and person who bought it would be none the wiser. Ethically I feel better about not going through with it if it were true. That's a pulled sale from Arkane's pockets. Still, ze temptation.

Yeah those cards are the cat's pajamas.
