    You will not get a launch day console then, but you should be good for Christmas.

    For those who have the Watch_Dogs Bundle preordered, the game has been delayed till next year.
    "Our ambition from the start with Watch_Dogs has been to deliver something that embodies what we wanted to see in the next-generation of gaming, it is with this in mind that we've made the tough decision to delay the release until Spring 2014."

    Had a feeling WD would be delayed. Posted it a few months back too that it may not make launch day. I wonder what bundle Sony will make now to replace it, AC4 maybe but hopefully not. Can't do Drive Club as it would mess up their PS+ plans.

    To be honest, I'm happy. I felt that the game was being rushed to coincide with the next gen console release. Hopefully it delivers on its potential.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,320 ✭✭✭v3ttel


    Ah ffs. I've already picked the Watch Dogs bundle on Amazon. I wonder what happens now?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,606 ✭✭✭✭Dont be at yourself


    I'd say AC4 will be the replacement.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 412 ✭✭LauraW7746


    Hey lads just saw about the watch dogs delay. I had that bundle preordered with gamestop has anyone spoken to gamestop about the bundle situation now? Can we swap over to a different bundle?
    I will be going in there tomorrow but if anyone has any info on it now it would be great!
    Thanks

    It's up to Sony now, not gamestop. I reckon AC4 will replace it. No point in going into any shop until Sony figure this out and issue a statement on a nw bundle as gamestop will know nothing till then. Some store probably won't even know its cancelled by tomorrow they was some stores are run.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,805 ✭✭✭✭siblers


    WatchDogs was the only game I was genuinely excited for at launch. Not sure what game to get instead now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,071 ✭✭✭MarkY91


    so whats the reason behind watchdogs delay? will this mean it will be 60fps?

    i was going to upgrade to watchodgs bundle tomorrow but now its either killzone or no bundle -_-

    -

    No 60fps, not going to happen, it does not need it anyway it's not a racer. The team said it needs more detail and polish for next gen standards, probably some bug squashing aswell with the drop in drop out online features.

    Maybe the saw how GTAV online went bandy and decided to get it right first time!

    Same here, not sure what to do now, guess I'll wait to see what they'll replace it with.

    Looking at the alternatives on Amazon:

    A bit disappointing that 5 out of the 6 bundles include Killzone, doesn't give you a lot of choice if you're not interested in that game.

    Gamestop actually rang me today asking me what bundle I wanted. There was two options, the ps4 with killzone + 2 controllers for €500 or Ps4 with watchdogs + 1 controller for €439. I went with the watchdogs bundle but only hearing now about the delay. Did anyone else get a phone call today from GameStop or whoever you pre booked your console with. I pre booked mine back in June.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,506 ✭✭✭✭Xenji


    Sony will have to replace the Watchdogs bundle with another game bundle before launch, otherwise they will be short on consoles for launch seeing that the bundles are existing stock repackaged.

    Think I'll be cancelling my order,the only game I wanted was watch dogs :(

    Less than a month to go now. Had WD game preordered but will have to switch that now so may opt to go to AC4 instead.

    Do launch titles ever get reviewed before they actually come out? Be nearly tempted just to get the console on its own and pick up whatever seems to be getting the best reviews. I'd hate the be stuck with AC4 if it ends up being as disapointing as AC3.

    Well it be on current gen so you can watch the review plus remember American get ps4 first on 15 of November so we can see if a game worth it or not on 29 November

    Iwould imagine you will see reviews a week or two before launch date but way too late to change your mind about the bundle though. If you are that worried, i would suggest just going with the basic console.

    Too many ps4's or too many people in the store at launch? Sorry that bit confused me.

    Sorry, very unclear. Didn't expect to get too many PS4s in for launch. Seemed confident I'd get one on launch, though, as they had very very few preorders before I booked mine.

    No problem. I pre-ordered with hn in store too and I've been told that I'm "guaranteed" one. I doubt it but we'll see in 6 weeks.

    So it seems you get the game when it comes out or can choose to get a different bundle.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,461 ✭✭✭McGrath5


    I just placed my pre order with Amazon. Role on december or whenever the hell I'll actually get this console.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 600 ✭✭✭King Krib


    I was toying with the idea of getting either Watch Dogs or Fifa 14 along with the Killzone Mega Bundle. It seems my hand has been forced.

    As it stands it looks like I will just have to make do with Killzone and the PSN games we get, will probably get Knack as well though, none of the other games interested me besides Watchdogs, hell I even would not of got Killzone except for the fact it is coming with the bundle, I have not actually had to pay a cent for the console so far, have €452 euro payed off just by manipulating the trade in deals they had in March.
