    the PS3 came Launched a year into the generation and as a result got a lot more games than a normal launch Alot of things got ported over from 360 too

    The launch of every gen is always bad the 360 had about 2 decent games before a 4 month wait before the next decent game came out

    This gen compared to others has a better line-up than any other gen in my memory anyway

    I would go with the PS2 lineup, might be because I was 14 back then, but loved The Summoner, Tekken Tag Tournament, SSX and Smuggler's Run. This time around I do not like shooters, AC has always bored me, Drive Club can be got with PS+ ( not full I know ) Knack seems interesting and I do not like Fifa and other sports games. I do know though that the majority of people will love the lineup though, but I will still get great use out of some of the PSN games.

    Better to be delayed and polished by the dev team rather than release soon and hope the modding community fix whatever is up with it.

    The more I saw of this game the less interested I got, too many gameplay videos showing the same thing and not much variation, it definitely lacked something in those videos.

    They definitely want this game to get a good start as they must believe they're onto something with it, like a reliable franchise.

    In what universe :confused:

    All there really is is Arkham Origins, COD, BF4 and Black Flag for current gen. It's not really a great choice tbh

    Launch line ups have always been terrible but it's far from the best. Gamecube, Dreamcast, GBA and Neo Geo Pocket had far better launches. Then there's stuff liek the Xbox and N64 that might not have launched with many games but had one game that made it all worth it. There's really not anything to interest me on the PS4 and Xbox One but then there might be a surprise (Crimson Dragon could be awesome considering how amazing a series Panzer Dragoon is. It's a launch game right). Monkey Ball on the Gamecube was a great surprise.

    Yeah Crimson Dragon will be available at launch, but will be a download only title and will be only around €15.

    I never thought I'dsay it but the XBox One line up is looking far better than the PS4 one. Anyway this is way off topic.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,645 ✭✭✭Daemos


    That delay is good news for me. Means I won't have to worry about whether or not to get it for another few months

    agreed, looks way better, but the free games from sony look very very appealing as well
    next gen looks good, but next year for gaming will be a great time :) so many things out next year I want, this launch nothing has really taken my interest to much, like I'm hyped for the consoles to come out but not really over excited for the games, I'm more hyped for Dark Souls 2 if I'm honest :)

    sorry that came out smart, seemed more like a general question in my head:pac:

    Their is better choice of AAA titles on release for the one, but of course its all down to opinion and preference.
    Ps4 has the upper hand in regards to the free games, good selection of them too

    Did you pre order a console?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,215 ✭✭✭Kur4mA


    Seriously, us gamers are such a fickle bunch that it does my head in sometimes. A game gets release with a day 1 or even week 1 patch already in the pipeline.

    Result? Gamers complain.

    Ubisoft decides not to do that and to delay Watch_Dogs so they can spend more time on making sure its up to the standard and expectation that everyone has.

    Result? Gamers complain.

    Personally, I'd rather they delay it and release it as close to perfect as they can get it. Patches are always expected, but I'd rather a great experience on release day than a buggy piece of crap tbh.

    unofficially.

    I haven't read much response outside of this forum, but to be fair, here at least, everyone is disappointed, but they aren't complaining, they realise that they will get a polished complete game, like we did with GTA V after its delay.

    Touched that up abit.

    Naturally, no one is going to praise the company for bad scheduling are they?

    I'm in the same boat, better product is better.

    Doesn't always work though. It can build up the expectations even further that nothing will suffice. D3, is an example, always living in the shadow and expectations of its predecessor. Even the China man who hacked my account didn't do much! Played 2 hours and gave up!

    This will be in the shadow of GTA V.

    Well there is an announcement at 6 from Ubisoft.. safe to assume it's this.

    As for new info... only the date really :o


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,490 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Ubi have the vid up officially now. Wish it was next gen only so I'd know they were focusing on using the new technology as much as they could.



  • Registered Users Posts: 28,820 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Remember the big multiplayer aspect of the game that was talked about at the reveal about how other people can help you out? Haven't heard anything about that since then.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,505 ✭✭✭✭Xenji


    Looks like there are serious problems with the game and it has suffered quite the downgrade, really do not have high hopes for it now.

    First part of the gif is from the new gameplay footage we saw today, the second part is the reveal we saw at E3, this is PS4 footage.

    The other half of the gif is taken from footage in this gameplay video from the PS4.
