The next Naughty Dog game is going to be fucking amazing, bro. That's what.

Oh god....the spinal chills are too intense!!! Sony!:

I hope PS4 gets the superior versions in every goddamn multiplat game and it results in having more sales. Make MS regret not targeting the highest end hardware.

Sorry - you post a thread stating that the PS4 will get the "graphically definitive version of Watch_Dogs" and expect PC Gamers to just ignore it?
I am all for rational discussions about the power difference between PS4 and Xbox One - but the threads should be labeled accordingly then ;-)

I posted examiner title as is, if I knew better, I would have said clearly said " STAY AWAY PC GAF" but I thought people actually read the article, by first sentence you will notice that PS4/X1 are the main target of this article. live and learn I guess.
 
I remember some people predicting the difference between the XB1 versions and the PS4 versions of games would be a slightly lower resolution on the Xbone. (900p vs 1080p). Those predictions could ring true.

How can anyone not love the new and improved Sony?... they are charming as fuck.

*throws money at Sony*
I have a preference for the PC gaming platform, but Sony is pretty great right now. Best they've been since the height of the PS2, I think.

Actually, maybe even better than then. Kutaragi always said some pretty crazy and insane shit, I think Sony's games division might have the best collective head on their shoulders since the launch of the PS1.

I feel like they're firing on all cylinders and hitting all the right notes, right now.
 
What the hell is going on with all the misleading info from websites lately?
Someone's obviously make shit up.

Sure at the time CBOAT said it should of sparked this very controversial topic but now it's spreading with 0 legit sources.

Now people are running with it...
Rumors. No confirmation. Wth.

Unsurprising based on what we know of the GPUs, particularly if there is anything to the driver rumors, though the anonymous sources seem dubious at best. With both sides trying to generate all of this FUD I'm taking all this news with a grain of salt and trying to consider the sources. Its interesting to see multiple negative stories/rumors coming out in the last couple of days that seem to point to Ubi as the source (well one explicitly does, the other referenced "a French developer"). I'm starting to wonder if some of this is an offshoot of EA vs Ubi given EA seems more closely aligned with MS and Ubi with Sony.

Probably just too much of the conspiracy theorist in me though since its more likely to just be someone giving an honest answer to a question asked on background, and not some agenda. Though I think industry folks may find all the celebration / wailing and gnashing of teeth on the message boards entertaining every time some nugget of info gets dribbled out.

I don't give a fuck about Sony's new attitude or any of that shit. They are getting my money because they are offering a better product (at a better price I might add). Simple as that.

Yes it's certainly interesting that Ubi seems to be the source for a lot of these. To be honest Ubisoft could say anything they wanted about these consoles right now and neither Sony or Microsoft cold do anything, with AC4 and Watchdogs, Ubisoft are going to be selling as many next gen games as anyone this november, so the platform holder can't hurt Ubi, without significantly hurting themselves.

Yeah, that's nice, too. I'll happily get a PS4 next year when they are easily available at retail.

I don't care what the XB1 version does or doesn't look like. I just want the definitive version on PS4 not to be gimped due to politics
 
I highly doubt 660ti will be enough. If so, there won't be such a large buzz about Mantle that's coming from AMD.

Also a PC running a 660ti will not run WD better than a PC running a 680. And that PC with 680 will not run it better than a PC with 780 etc.

So unless you have the absolute top of the line PC, you're not gonna get the definitive version. There's always a bigger fish.

Edit: I don't remember shitting on PC users?

My bad. The part I bold in my original reply, just came off like you need a super PC to do better than consoles.

I laughed in real life ^^
 
The hypocrisy of those getting upset at people saying the PC version will be definitive is hilarious.

One, the topic title and every quote in the article all do not specify that it's just discussing the consoles versions. Thus the reaction is exactly what should be expected.

And two, what great discussion is saying that the PC version will be definitive taking away from? The PS4 is obviously more powerful than the Xbox One and I would say that calling its version the definitive console one graphically is more of a no-brainer than saying the PC version will be the definitive one period.

I have it pretty ordered on the PS4. Was considering cancelling after all this downgrade politics talk, by the sounds of it, there's no need. Minimum 1080p/30 please.

I'm not sure how many Wii U owners are angry about the PC guys stepping into the discussion.

Only if you don't understand the difference.

Oh, I guess you don't. No, see, just because PS4 has more powerful hardware doesn't mean it will automatically get better ports. It's very possible that some devs will code for the lowest common denominator. So a PS4 port being superior to the Xbox version isn't a foregone conclusion, and therefore worth pointing out.

The PC is different. As I said earlier, PC hardware iterates at a much faster rate than consoles. It is a foregone conclusion that PC games will be more advanced than console games.

Will buy on PC like every other third party game from now on. Using consoles solely for exclusives. Not getting bit by the no backwards compatibility shit again.
 
I think the reason the PC doesn't get mentioned is it's either obvious that you can get the best looking version for large $$$ or people consider sales on PC unimportant in comparison to consoles.

After playing GTA V for a while now I'm not nearly as impressed with Watch Dogs footage.

I call BS, people are so quick to post and jump on Xbone.
Please look at this then... OMG maybe I should make a new thread (jazz hands).
http://www.oxm.co.uk/57743/watch-dogs-will-have-a-more-dynamic-city-on-xbox-one/

"These improvements will also stretch to the AI: "We're also able to spend more time giving brains to the other people on the streets so that they can basically be smarter, and there can be more of them." Ultimately, Guay makes the claim that "The way the city reacts to you, we are able to push further on the Xbox One."

We had that thread when this article came out.

And even that thread took 2 pages of people with no reading comprehension like you to realize that he's comparing the next-gen versions to current-gen.

Jazz hands.
 
I doubt this very much. Even if the PS4 was more powerful why would lazy devs bother to take advantage of it? Plus it would get MS mad at them.
