People who intended to buy Watch Dogs on Next-Gen: What are you getting instead now?

Probably an even bigger incentive to delay buying a next gen console then. As it is, I only really cared about TitanFall or Destiny. Both come out spring 2014 or later.
So I'll probably hold off on any next gen console, see what the sales are like. Don't really care about Dead rising, Infamous that much to rush out and get it.

Killzone........maybe AC4 also?
I was one of those "fools" who was gonna buy a PS4 Day 1 coz of WD. Oops.
The 6 month wait doesn't bother me as much since I'll have my hands full on PS3 games anyway (GT6, Beyond, GTAO, WWE2K14, Black Friday games on sale, etc)

I moved my order to ACIV then decided that I'm over the AC series so I cancelled that and put the money on NBA 2k14(PS4). I had planned on getting 2k14 on XB1 but since I couldn't find anything else to pick up in the PS4 launch lineup (Already have KZ preordered)I had to shuffle a few games around and put my XB1 2k14 order on Zoo Tycoon.

I'm leaning more towards Killzone now, I think. Like, I'm not even that interested in it, but I may get it. I just need something to tide me over until Lego Marvel releases.

Had it paid in full, so moved it to Killzone. I really didn't want two fps' at launch, what with getting bf4 already, but everything else is kinda crap.

I was always going to get AC4 and Watch_Dogs, so there's no real replacement. I'll just play through more of my PS+ backlog on the PS3 instead.

I can't decide between Killzone, Injustice, or Lego Marvel.
Watch_Dogs was the one game I was seriously considering (PS4). I have no idea what I'll get now. I'm going to be out of town launch weekend, so I'll probably start with Res0gun and DriveClub with my Plus sub, then wait for some impressions of the launch titles I'm mildly interested in.

It's a shame to see posts like this.
Launch days are supposed to be exciting and this unfortunately really took some wind of the sails of the excitement this year. The more I think about it, the more I'm bummed.
Just seemed to fill a gap that was really needed in this generation's launch day catalogue.

dunno. This is a real bummer. I was planning on getting this a COD:Ghosts, but was really looking forward to Watch Dogs. Killzone maybe?

Killzone SF or Knack, depending on reviews.

Probably nothing. Rather than keeping my pre-order, I'll wait for ubidrop and get it for $20 or so come Black Friday. I wanted something to play at launch. By then, I'll have infamous and will be waiting for the order.

Already planning on Killzone and Ass Flag. Thinking of Hashtag Driveclub or Knack to replace WD.

Hang on wasn't Planetside 2 supposed to be a release title as well?
Someone above me also mentioned the fact that there should be a decent amount of indie titles as well as some PSN games available around launch. So there's always that.
For me, Killzone and BF4 for sure, then a few PSN games, and a highlight for me would be Planetside 2.

I know the question if meant for launch games, but the possibility that GTA5 may be released on next gen before Watch Dogs is amusing.
If I were Rockstar, I would speed up next gen development of the game right now, to ship on the same day as Watch Dogs, solely for trolling on corporate level.

It cements my purchase of AC4. That's probably a common story.

I'm still going to get a PS4 with Killzone and BF4. I was briefly debating AC4 but considering I wasn't a fan of 1 or 2 and 4 doesn't look much better to me I probably won't get that. May get Driveclub depending on how the PS+ version is, and may get Knack if it gets extremely good reviews which I doubt. Really I'm just buying the PS4 in 2013 for the device and Killzone, 2014 is what I'm looking forward to games-wise.
Nice observation, doesn't show CoD is no longer popular, but how a different segment it is.

Assassins Creed IV Black Flag instead.

Since I was getting the game with Amazon credit anyway, I changed it to Killzone (PS4).

Revolutions sucked and AC 3 was straight up garbage. Can't believe there's even any hype for AC 4, smells like 3 in a row to me.

Going to go nuts on PSN releases now. Hopefully I can preorder more on the SEN site before launch. Would be cool to hook it up and it starts downloading once I link my account.

Whether or not I kept my PS4 pre-order largely hinged on how this game ended up between the two platforms, so the fact that it's now been pushed off probably means I hold off on my ps4, which probably works out for the better since by the time I do pick one up there will be more games that I really want to play.
I thought for a bit there that Killzone alone would do it, but I was buying that game for the wrong reasons (purely graphics related.)

Out of picture for next gen launch, thus a topic wondering what preorder set people are thinking about now. I, personally, am going to wait on next-gen consoles as I already have a quite good PC.

Nothing, saving the extra money. I planned on buying everything I wanted to buy.

Gonna get contrast instead
Well, that and the fact that so many are already buying Killzone and/or Battlefield. It takes a hardcore fan to buy 3 first person shooters at launch.
Yeah, I can't shake the feeling it's going to be garbage. Still can't get over how amazing AC3 looked in previews and what a bust it turned out to be.

Everyone switching over from Watch Dogs to AC4 is exactly why Ubisoft delayed it.

It maybe gives Ghosts a SLIM chance of getting a purchase from me. Been listening to Eminem's new song often and saw the video for it with COD all over it, and it has me possibly thinking that I may grab it. It would be the first COD game I buy since Modern Warfare 2.
AC4 is definitely the more likely purchase, however. Watch Dogs releasing so close to AC4 was definitely not good business.

I don't know I was getting BF4/WD, now I don't know. CoD/KZ? Two shooters?!?
I'm so done with AC I don't know if I wanna go that route :/ so disappointed.

Watchdogs! That was going to be my first next gen experience, and I'm pretty disappointed I won't be able to play it this November. The delay was definitely for the best though. What a damned hard decision that had to be.
My first next gen experience will be Killzone now, because I think that's my best bet for a true next gen slap in the face. I'll probably pick up AC4 now, because Watchdogs isn't coming out, and I still want that next gen open world fix.
