I will admit I've not got round to playing the first one but I know this game was highly regarded in the gaming community. Here is the Dishonored 2 E3 trailer.

Marvel, Sony and Paramount All Skipping Comic-Con
San Diego’s lucrative fanboy convention will be missing some key players next month: MarvelStudios, home of the Avengers, won’t be dressing up for Comic-Con while Sony Pictures and Paramount Pictures have also decided to skip the Hall H presentations.
“It wasn’t a knock against Comic-Con,” one spokesperson explains, “the film cycles just didn’t allow it.”
Sony and Paramount just didn’t have the fanboy material to promote, said sources, while Marvel, which last missed the confab in 2011, already unveiled its new wave of Avengers at a special fan event in October.
Plus, cost of sending a number of movies to Comic-Con can also set back a studio a few hundred thousand dollars, so “why force the issue?,” one exec asks.
Disney is expected to showcase its upcoming slate, which includes sequels for “Pirates of the Caribbean” and “Finding Nemo,” at the company’s D23 Expo later this summer.
But don’t expect Tony Stark or Jack Sparrow to ruin the party in Hall H: In addition to the new “Star Wars” and final “Hunger Games,” fans could see the rumored coming-out party for Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment’s Justice League, which features Batman, Superman, the Flash and Aquaman, among other surprises.
Also expected are 20th Century Fox’s “Fantastic Four” and quite possibly a few “X-Men.”
The 46th edition of Comic-Con will be held July 9-12 at the San Diego Convention Center.

Children’s camp forced to change monument because it looks like genitals
One of the most evolved traits of human beings is our ability to spot phalluses in everyday objects… we assume.
That might be why an installation at at children’s camp has been altered because locals have pointed out how much it resembles male genitalia.
The innocent creation of the giant sausage and bread roll was intended to celebrate the local food known as a ‘kovbasa’.
However rather than show a respect for the local Crimean delicacy, visitors to the park have instead been left in fits of giggles due to the monument.
Officials have now decided to discretely remove part of the scene to make it slightly less X-rated.
By taking out the bread role (which people said resembled a testicle to the phallus-like sausage) they hope to have rid the scene of it’s childish humour.

This is the happiest photo in the world
What do you think of this photo? Did it make you smile?
Of course it did – science tells us so.
That’s right, the ‘happiest photo in the world’ has been found via a poll, and a psychologist can
explain exactly what about this photo will make an estimated 71 per cent of people who look at it smile.
Dr Simon Moore tells us exactly what will make your Facebook friends ‘lol’ and what will leave them ‘meh’ about the photos your share.
Dr Moor says: ‘The unexpected element in this shot, and our response to it, may help to explain why photo-bombing has become such a popular trend – it results in an unexpected emotional experience.
‘Sudden ‘nice’ surprises are good as psychologically we feel we got more than we were expecting.’
Melissa Brandts and her husband Jackson took the squirrel photo in 2009, and submitted it to the survey commissioned by Coca-Cola for their #choosehappiness campaign.
