Watch Dogs Will Be Out This Holiday For ‘All Home Consoles,’ Leaked Poster Says

Oh, I'm not offended, I get what you're saying, I'm just trying to rationalize (am I using this correctly) the opposing sides. But do you get what I'm saying, at least?

Of course. I know I'm not always an easy man to deal with. But I really do have a point I believe in underneath all the sarcasm, which is that I think people should as often as possible buy the games for the lead platforms they're designed for (unless, of course, the platforms are so close in nature that the difference is genuinely negligible). Developers chose something to meet their vision for a reason, and when you take hugely downgraded versions of said vision, you're sort of destroying the intent imo.

That goes for games designed with Wii U in mind too - if Zombie U came to PS4 or Xbox 720 and there was no way to replicate that unique pad-related tension, it'd be completely pointless as an exercise. Why ruin the developers vision?

I know this was totally out of bounds but it was so random I couldn't help but laugh.

i laughed as well. although man fat people get no respect yo, sometimes people let themselves go for one reason or another, people should try to be more understanding! I'm glad I'm no longer fat like that, but I still have a profound understanding for the difficulties that come in trying to lose weight. It's never easy.

Ok, i would like to ask one last question in general, which again is off-topic: What's with all the people calling other people "son" all of a sudden?

internet memes spread like wildfire, sometimes it's difficult to avoid unconsciously entering into ones lexicon

i enjoy saying 'yo' all the time now for some reason, which i thought I stopped saying when i was 14 but apparently not!

See now I'm hoping Ubisoft plays along with the joke and actually makes an 8 bit/16 bit version of Watch Dogs, ala Dark Void Zero.

Do you eat shit?

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

Sure, "yo" is one thing, but calling others "son" is... well, cringe worthy when you get my age (being a father), and see people, most likely a lot younger, calling others, quite possibly older, "son". But whatever, lol.

Alright but all kidding around aside, I always sort of thought CONCEPTUALLY the whole hacking phone thing is pretty much prototypical shit that would work on a Wii U pad, so it is weird to me that they didn't make it the lead SKU. i mean the guy has a handheld device always with him that he uses to hack shit and such, it sort of just makes simple sense and is probably the sort of thing most people expected when Wii U was announced.

that ship has sailed now, of course, but the decisions some developers make do baffle me.

I'm not expecting lots of worthwhile additions except for platform exclusives, when it comes to using the gamepad. And honestly, if multiplatform games just use it as map/inventory, but let you play off TV, i'm fine with that.

Ok I'll stop now, because I really am looking forward to this game. And seeing as I do in fact own a Wii U, this news bodes well for my hopefully future purchase of that particular version.

I agree with playing games as intended if possible, of course.
I don't really see the examples you posted as comparable though. ZombiU on PS4 would be a very different experience, purely because of gameplay and the overall design not being utilized as intended. In this case, Watch_Dogs probably wouldn't be any different on WiiU than on PS4 or Durango. It would just look different. The vision of the developer would still be intact.

And what if the WiiU version has added functionality? Wouldn't that be another way the game's meant to be played?

I guess I just don't value graphics as much. I think (hope?) a developer's vision is represented more by gameplay.

I guess we just have different ideas of what means a vision is in tact; visuals and physics and A.I. are all, to me, just as integral to the experience as anything Zombie U did with its pad. And, in some way, more so, because you're actually looking at the presentation and experiencing the physics all the time, non-stop, instead of only occasionally dipping down to look at a pad.

I think without a doubt a certain visual bar is part of a developers vision. It's like saying if a director made a movie with certain special effects and then someone went in and changed those effects, somehow made them cruder. Is the vision not tampered with? These things do matter.

Might be good for publishers, but bad for platform holders. I feel it will hurt sales of the new consoles.

Buy the PS4! It has all the same games as the PS3!
I don't know how so many people have forgotten that there were games that ran on the original Xbox and 360 at launch. Every game won't be on all systems but there will be some that are. This isn't a new thing.

I'm not sure if I'm ready for an entire open world/city game looking at least that good. It's probably going to look a bit better than that E3 footage, provided Ubi wasn't BSing us like they did with Far Cry 3.

They were deceptive about Far Cry 3? I'll be honest I didn't follow most of it until release...

Yeah that demo they had on stage ended up looking way better than even the PC version maxed out could get to. It was the first ever documented bullvid I think.

what the heck!? For real, where did that other game go? They wasted resources on making a E3 demonstration in some engine that clearly looks way better than Far Cry 3, or did they just render it to look like it's believably running on some great PC? To me that's way more offensive than like the PS3 Killzone shit...

Edit: Holy SHIT at the massive atmospheric difference in the jungle part after he jumps out of the water. I want to play THAT game, why :(

do what you like, as I said it's your money.

As to down below, Criminal Upper >

conflating criticizing inferior versions of games to making fun of people is pretty silly. i'm making fun of the idea of certain type of game purchase; if you take that personally, it's on you.

At Ubisoft they are quite shameless about this stuff, remember the bullshots for Assassin's Creed Liberation?
