Can't decide to get this for my PC or my PS4..

Neixus3939d ago

Get it for the system your friends will have it for, the ''hacking into another player's world'' looks really fun.

hakis863939d ago

Psychotica: For your PS4 of course.
Sure the PC version will allow you to play it in a higher resolution than 1080p, and probably somewhat raised graphics settings.

But with your PS4 you can share cool gameplay moments and brag to your friends, or share bugs, all this on the fly. I'm really excited to see how much this feature will be used.

ZeroX98763938d ago (Edited 3938d ago )

the problem with comparing PC vs any console is that there`s way more features(on PC), but at a higher price for the initial hardware. it`s like comparing a budget PC build vs a high performance PC build.

Hydrolex3938d ago

If you have a nice pc that could max it out then of course pc man !!! Plug in your ps3 or ps4 controller and it will feel the same

truthteller3939d ago

Exactly. I'm leaning towards PS4 cuz I like my couch more than my chair.

wannabe gamer3939d ago

just get a wireless controller for your pc and enjoy the couch too

Neixus3938d ago

you can hook up your ps3 controller to your pc, all you need is bluetooth :D

Plagasx3938d ago

Sighs...another clueless console gamer...

You can hook up a 360 controller to your PC and play on a couch...

Yukicore3938d ago

No doubt PC, next gen console version will come out later than PC, you will be about up and running the game, and had loads of fun before PS4 version airs.

Or you will be sitting and waiting for the PS4 version to come out, with all the reviews and gameplays right in front of you...

Stryfeno23939d ago

PC or Xbox One? Maybe both...I will see.

Elit3Nick3939d ago

you can try a more original comment next time...

meetajhu3938d ago

They said from now on Xbox exclusive means game will also be available on PC running Windows 7 or 8.

FrigidDARKNESS3939d ago (Edited 3939d ago )

I will pass on this game for the xbox one. The ps4 version will have all the perks and dlc while the xbox one version will look better but will be gimped of all dlc and perks. Why spend 60:00 on a game that jhave zero replay valoe.

medman3939d ago

I love how some people assume they know which version of the game will look better without having laid eyes on either version. I know this, based on what I've seen thus far, the best looking games I've seen are Infamous Second Son, The Division, MGSV, and Destiny. I tend not to include racers because they always look good. Three of those games were running off PS4 dev kits at E3, while MGSV was running off a high end pc at the Microsoft conference. How you come to the conclusion about graphical superiority when you haven't seen one second of legitimate gameplay on an actual Xbox One is beyond me. Good luck with that.

FrigidDARKNESS3938d ago

Easy go bavk and look at the e3 2012 demo that the user was using a black xbox wireless controller for the durango sdk.

SniperControl3938d ago

@FrigidDARKNESS
lol, dude you think that was on a X1 dev kit?, both Sony and MS had confidentially agreements with devs not to disclose any info regarding the game or console.
what you will find, that the demo was running on a PC using and x360 controller.
You do know PC gamers can use a 360 controller on a PC right?

gamernova3938d ago

Pre-order my copy from newegg a few weeks ago. PC of course :)

Watch Dogs Deserves A Remake, More Than Ever

With the world of information and technology, privacy and security growing every day, Watch Dogs deserves another chance in the spotlight, now more than ever.

RaidenBlack994d ago

The only Ubi title that deserves a faithful remake right now is Splinter Cell 1.
All 2014+ Ubi titles are just underwhelming. Especially ones from 2016+ are just cancer.

LucasRuinedChildhood994d ago (Edited 994d ago )

Seriously, are we so far removed from Ubisoft actually making good games that people now praise Watch_Dogs in retrospect?

"Watch_Dogs has remained one of my favourite games of the last ten years." Jesus Christ.

HankHill994d ago

I remember being so disappointed in Watch Dogs when I played it at release. It was alright, but I think I fell for the hype and I needed a game to play on my new PS4.

obidanshinobi994d ago

This is what happens when mediocrity gets praised as good.
Standards are slipping across the whole entertainment industry.
What was once considering rubbish is now considered as OK, what once was OK is now being praised as good etc etc.

LamerTamer994d ago

Everyone has their own likes. I liked it a lot myself. I played through it twice and liked the car chases and the open world with fairly decent environments and missions. It suffered from the whole downgrade thing where they showed graphics that weren't actually there. No game will appeal to everyone but it was still ambitious for it's time.

gantarat994d ago

assassin's creed 1 should get a remake.

ExBee994d ago

For certain! AC1 was brilliant at the time but with new graphics and gameplay it would be amazing! Do you prefer old combat or new though?

RaidenBlack994d ago

I'd say a reimagining of AC1.
I direct AC1 remake would be a bad idea. It'll need better story pacing and significant better world building.

BlaqMagiq1994d ago

Old. Let it play like how it did with AC2-Syndicate style gameplay but refine the setting and story.

Profchaos994d ago

It would need a lot changed for it to be enjoyable again as even back in 2007 on launch we were all complaining about it's repetitive gameplay go here perform one of three side quests repeat then assassination now do it over and over until a big battle with a unforgiving checkpoint system.

BlaqMagiq1994d ago

Absolutely. It needs it. The only AC I truly didn't enjoy.

chicken_in_the_corn994d ago

I'd prefer it didn't. Ubisoft would make it so bloated, it wouldn't be anywhere near the original

smolinsk994d ago (Edited 994d ago )

Absolutely, this watch dogs legion was terrible boring.

Profchaos994d ago (Edited 994d ago )

As a fan of the franchise legion was garbage and I regretted my purchase for the first time in the franchise the entire thing felt like an experiment in NPC behaviour and released without the writers input on what makes a good story.

I don't think I'm alone in that feeling though as wrench and Aiden are brought back and the campaign was rewritten to fit them.

I am tempted to buy the season pass to play it again with Aiden but fool me twice shame on me I'm waiting for a deep sale

camel_toad994d ago

Agreed. Despite the annoying hipness of the characters in part 2 I thought it was a really fun game. I was extremely disappointed and surprised at how many steps back they took with Legion. You'd think it was made by an entirely different team. Or was it?

It was just so devoid of fun.

LamerTamer994d ago

Honestly one of my biggest annoyances with Legion is that they took out the camera views for the driving. I mean the behind the car view that they stuck us with is near unplayable. I always used a first person driving view. After two releases why did they take OUT features? I don't get it.

TheSinsibleOne994d ago

The fist watchdog game was the best by far
After that they weren't weird and annoying with that hipster stuff. Aiden was a badass.

LamerTamer994d ago

I thought so at first too. I got used to it and it ended up being good after some play time. I just had to give it a chance.

TheEnigma313994d ago

Remake the PoP series from xbox/ps2/gc era

RaidenBlack994d ago

They are remaking Sands of Time.

TheEnigma313994d ago

That's good news. Hopefully it's done right.

Inside the Driver game that died so that Watch Dogs could live

From VG247: "When cars slide, they leave tyre marks. In a game like Driver, they’re an aesthetic touch, part of the inherent cool of a handbrake turn. But those dark shadows in the road also tell a story. From tyre marks, you can determine the speed of a vehicle, when it started to skid, and its ultimate direction of travel – long after the car itself has vanished into the distance."

vallencer1059d ago

Different spellings in different parts of the world friend. Tyre is a correct way to spell it.

Pridefall1059d ago

Dunno why you got downvpted when tyre is correct in Australia.

mikefizzled11058d ago

The mystery that is En Fore Gee

neutralgamer19921059d ago

Give us driver San Francisco remastered

IGiveHugs2NakedWomen1059d ago

Why did they stop making some of the best games ever? Driver was one of them.

Gameseeker_Frampt1058d ago

Assassins Creed 2 showed Ubisoft how to make money and Far Cry 2 showed them that gamers don't like complex ideas. Now Ubisoft just turns out games that are just variations of the same thing.

WeAreLegion1059d ago

Best driving mechanics ever made. Nothing has come close.

Gardenia1059d ago

A story driven game with pure driving gameplay. I'd love to see a new Driver game or a remake of the first one.

ApocalypseShadow1059d ago

Yes. This one. A definite remake of the first without adding any ridiculous fluff. The first game had great physics and sound for its time. The start of the car in the beginning cinema I watched constantly. My father and uncles were big muscle and classic car freaks. Only thing crazy about the game was the relentless cops in the last level. Insane the way those police cars were and launched at you.

Bleemcast made it look better just like PC emulators. But would definitely take a remake.
