Yeah, gaming is becoming expensive, especially for those of us that might be struggling a bit financially. I'm trying to put next gen out of my mind for a bit as everyone's getting hyped with no idea of any final costs.
Personally I'm intrigued to see what Microsoft has up their sleeves. PS5 will be my next gen console of choice, but I'm toying with the idea about getting an Xbox One X for BC & Game Pass.
I played the first Assassin's Creed game, but never the second so I can't make the comparison. I get where you're coming from though so if I did try out Watch Dogs I'll start with 2.
Have you played them both?
Thank you for the reply. From what I'm getting from the comments the second game is the way to go.
Thank you, the second game seems like a good starting point. I'll have to check it out at some point to get a feel for it myself.
I haven't played any of the Watch Dog games. I remember being really excited for the original but once it got delayed I never got around to it. What are everyone's thoughts on the first two games?
I went back to the N'Sane Trilogy again after this announcement today. Hopefully 4 is on par with these original three!
Same. Absolutely skint at the moment! I've only just got around to starting Resident Evil 3. Once I've got through that I'm going to replay The Last of Us and then Left Behind, which I haven't played at all yet. Only then will I be ready for this game.
Super Stardust was a lot of fun, and you can definitely see some nods to that in the gameplay. Loved Resogun too, but I haven't played Nex Machina or Matterfall. I'll definitely be buying Returnal, though.
Personally I'm hoping that Sony are going to announce an overhaul to PS+. Maybe like 1 free VR game, 1 PS4 game & 1 indie PS5 game. Offer a discount to PS Now for PS+ members and make it more like Game Pass, add more PS2/3 games available to stream or download and I'd be happy. They have to have something up their sleeve to at least attempt to combat Microsofts advances in terms of BC & the Game Pass model.
I'm looking forward to trying it out. I was playing Tekken 7 yesterday and I was thinking about how haptics could make a game like this pack a bit more...punch.
You mean that wasn't all that the PS5 had to offer for the rest of the gen that hasn't started yet?
I can't wait. My base PS4 is barely clinging to life (at least, it sounds that way) so I'm in serious need of an upgrade! I'd like to think that I'll be getting one at launch, but depending on finances I might have to hold off until 2021.
Can't wait to play a game with the DualSense for the first time. It looks a lot more comfortable than the DualShock 4, which was a vast improvement over the DualShock 3 in terms of comfort anyway. The haptics and 3D audio should really add to the immersion. I'll never forget how disappointed I was when Sony removed rumble completely for the PS3's original SixAxis. MotorStorm felt so flat.
I've got a base PS4 and I definitely have performance issues. It made me stop playing early on, so hopefully on PS5 I'll be able to play it as was intended. I'm just hoping that I won't have to buy the full game again.
I wish I had your finances. I'll just about afford one PS5 and that'll be thanks to credit!
Disk is the safe option. Go digital and you're tied to PS Store pricing. Some PS4 games already push £60. In reality the PS5 digital edition will cost you more money in the long run.
I like it, personally. I've got a white PS4 so it's nice to have a white model available from launch without having to wait for a release later.
I'm really intrigued by the DualSense. Can't wait to play a game with it for the first time & I'm hoping & praying that there's a PS5 version of Lumines on its way.
