Hitman:Abs vs Far Cry 3

[defblade]

I was going to wait until they were both seriously bargin bucket (or at least until I ran out of gold on World of Tanks ), but my lovely lovely wife has decided to buy me both for Christmas

So, which do I play first?
(On the 25th, probably before lunch even. Ignoring entire rest of family for the rest of the special day, which should, pretty much above all others, be a day for "family" (But don't feel guilty whichever you say... it would have been WoT otherwise!)).

Farcry will eat up more than just the day, so I suggest not touching it until the evening. Plan on being tired Boxing day too. Awesome game.

I've not heard good things about Absolution, so I'd probably get that out of the way first

I have both and FC3 is by far the better game. Since getting FC3 I haven't thought about Hitman.

Hitman looks pretty but it is the same crap in a different setting over and over. Dishonoured is a far better stealth game.

i platted on hitman and found it fun and chellenging but only on certain levels on certain scenes, he is cool though.

the contracts element is actually pretty good but i'd hope for some dlc challenges and the disguises are annoying in terms of detection at times.

just strated dishonoured and whilst it looks sublime i'm struggling with the first person perspective after hitman, farcry 3 not played but just got through uncharted 2 pretty easily although i needed a bit of help on finding ALL of the treasures.

So, play Hitman quick for old times sake, then settle into FC for the long run?

Dishonoured is on my list for "get sometime" too, but that can wait until they fix the spelling for the UK

Thanks to someone on the Dishonored thread, just got that from Steam for £15, so now I really don't know which is going to win out!

Haven't started it up yet though, enjoying my WoT off and on today

I'll be playing Hitman first as I already have that and have just ordered far cry 3. I suspect that I will enjoy far cry more and hitman may be a play then trade affair that i won't return to after completing it.

Ha! The best laid plans and all that Spent most my spare time so far changing the front tyre of my motorbike instead of playing computer games
