Recomendations on these games.?

Hey fellow gamers. I am looking into buying a variety of games upcoming to christmas and I'd like to hear some of your opinions.

1. Dishonoured - I like the look of the stealth attribute + the 'superhero' abilities that you get with it.

2. Far Cry 3 - I am into free roam games especialy one with a lot of different activities ( Is this game repetetive in quests e.g 10 different quests for picking flowers)

3. Just Cause 2 - I believe this is a slightly old game but I like the look of it.

4. Borderlands 1+2 -I've never played borderlands before, I watched a first impression video the other day and the games looked pretty good.

5.Left for dead 2 - I have played a steam free weekend of this game, but what I want to know is if this game gets repetetive and boring after a while, I don't want to buy a game if I might only play it for a week then get bored.

6. Bulletstorm - I really liked the look of the many different kill scenarios and the points for upgrades and special abilities on your weapons.

7. Deux Ex Human Revolution - I'm not to sure about this game there is a part of me which wants to try it but it seems like it might get boring after a while.

8. And the MMO - Guild Wars 2 - I liked the look of this game for an MMO but I'm not too sure I don't play many MMO's but this one really caught my eye. P.s I don't like WoW because you have to continently pay £15 per month whereas in Guild Wars 2 it is a one time payment

Thanks for any replies.

    I'll just review what I played.

    Dishonoured- the abilities are awesome, the plot was brilliant. But it has a few flaws. The fun part of the game was the killing, IMO. But killing seems to be almost discouraged here, cause if you kill too many, you'll get a bad ending. The stealth gameplay gets easy once you know what to do. If you are going to be stealthy all the way, you only need 2 powers out of all the rest, because the rest are just plain unnecessary. Kinda dumb if you ask me. They give you abilities for an all out assault when you only need a couple to get the 'good' stealthy ending. And don't be mistaken, this game is not open world, nope. Every moment you're in town, it's always because you're on a mission. Overall rating: 7.5/10

    Far Cry 3- This game has exceeded waaay beyond my expectations. It is like a combination of Assassin's Creed 3 and skyrim. It is open world with a main quest, but many side quests, and has beautiful BEAUTIFUL landscapes. The plot is brilliant IMO, I give the plot a 10/10. Never regretted spending a cent in this. The gamplay is fantastic, the movement of the camera really makes you feel like you are the character himself. (example: when climbing a ladder, you 'jerk' up and down, the prologue already immerses you inside the game) SPOILERS! It resembles Assssins creed greatly, needing to 'liberate' certain zones, skin animals to craft your items like weapon holders, using 'zip lines'. Overall rating: 9/10

    Borderlands 1 and 2- If you don't like Any Fallout games, don't buy this game. It is extremely open-world, so open that you can be easily at loss of what the hell to do. BUT, if you love guns, this is the game for you. The range of weapons in this game is CRAZY!

    Deus Ex HR: this is quite like Dishonoured, only that the powers are more 'realistic'. Although you may not have powers like 'Blink' or the tornado wind power thing(forgot the name), this game has more realistic powers(that a robot-human can have), like shooting friggin ball bearings from your body, the cloaking system, etc. The amount of "powers" is so many, it's almost ridiculous! And yet, the creators managed to prevent you from being overpowered. In fact, even with the upgrades, the game is still quite tough. You may be one or two steps ahead because of the powers, but no more than that. Genius.

    This is mostly first person, although in third person when you're behind cover. Depending on your choices for what upgrades, you can choose to be stealthy or "Rambo". Brilliant. The plot however, was a bit unclear. Overall rating: 8/10.
