Video games are a thing and I play them sometimes

     Last week I played through the first 2 acts of Dishonored and I sorta love that game. It's like Deus Ex if I was semi competent at it. It really is pretty similar to Human Revolution, with all the different ways to complete each mission and the upgrade able superhuman abilities. It's a bit like Assassin's Creed in that you get a target for each mission, but the ways you can deal with them are actually kinda cool sometimes. In the case of a non-lethal playthrough, you can (tee-hee) dishonor them by like, playing the confessions of a dictator over the loudspeakers, or sending away a lady to live with her obsessed admirer. Or you can just go  stab everything like a mongoloid. Either way, it's pretty solid, even if it does go by fairly quickly, even while taking a stealthy approach. It could do with out the requisite zombies that appear in every game, but apart from that it's one of the best new IPs I've seen in a while. Anyways. Video games are played on a screen. Ciao.
