and? Consoles are usually less powerful than PCs buy still manage to output competitive visuals.

Watch Dogs Will Be Out This Holiday For All Home Consoles, Leaked Poster Says
- Thread starter ComputerMKII
- Start date
I somewhat admire Wii U owners, thinking that the game will release on Wii U along side the PS3/PS4/360/Durango version.
EDIT: I mean, Far Cry 3 isn't even out for it! I doubt that Ubisoft will support the Wii U like they somewhat promised at E3 last year. Even the "exclusive" Rayman game went multiplatform. What does that tell you? They don't rely on the system to push that many copies.

I think they will do it for the fan. Purely for the fan.
Ubisoft? Delay a game on PC? Well I never!
Orbis/Durango won't run at the resolution PC does. Also, you're forgetting consoles are built in a different way as PCs, everything inside them is tailored to avoid bottlenecks and performance issues.
Still won't match high end PCs though. Not that it matters, the game will look great on both nextgen consoles.
Maybe it won't look as different, aside from resolution and framerate, that is.
Note that "as different" implies there will be differences.

Will buy it for my future ps4!
I have a PC with a i750 @3.8ghz + gtx 460 1gb @ 840mhz and I game at 1440*900, BUT the ps4 is more powerful than what I got and I'm not upgrading in a new console year. I'll use that $300 i would spend on a gpu towards the ps4.

Heh. It should have a release date for 360/PS3, and have an undetermined date for Wii U.
Then three weeks before the PS3/360 SKUs come out, they delay them 7 months to be in line with the Wii U version.

To be honest I am more interested in the gameplay enhancements the Wii U could offer, it seems like a perfect fit for this game.
I know people are talking about the graphics, I have a gaming PC, if I cared about the graphics only I wouldn't care about Wii U version.
I don't see why it wouldn't tbh

If it's so far in development it would make more sense to release it then they'll just proceed as planned.

If it is cool but I have a feeling it won't be
Because Ubisoft won't fund it. If a exclusive won't sell than a game on all the consoles it certainly won't.
And what if they're correct?

Will buy for PC and PS4 later when it's cheap for dem trophies
Sure have you seen Crysis 2 with mods? Or Sleeping Dogs with mods, or Skyrim with the works? All 3 look better than what you showed. It looks like a high spec PC game, nothing more or less.
The prob with that is the PS4/720 wont be selling much more then the WiiU did at launch and then they may have supply constraints. WiiU by fall will have a nice size install base, thus more people buying on there.
Yes, please.

My body is fucking ready.
IF, and I know that is a very big if, these are the kind of graphic, including running at least at 1920x1080p, we can expect from next gen consoles for open world games, I think I will be fairly content with next gen.
hope it's not a pipe dream.
It's a gig, so it'll be about half an hour, give or take.
Umm Ubisoft put out about 6 launch WiiU games, Far Cry 3 was delayed as is anyways, they were spread thin to port another game.
Now Ubi studios are free to work on other WiiU games, they are not gonna stop working on WiiU, they even said they expect WiiU install base to be larger this fall when big 1st party games come out, they are not acting like EA is over Orgin on WiiU.

cheers
not a pipe dream. should definitely be possible
dunno about maintaining 60fps or anything though with that
But all three could move closer to PC and further from PS360 ofcourse (without WiiU getting closer to Orb/Dur). Just tell me that you've seen it and it looks good.

HA! my gifs to good use
My body is fucking ready.
(thanks for that)Also can not wait for this on my by than newly build pc this summer.
Well of course, that's the general rule with console ports. On PC you usually just get higher frame rates and better IQ thanks to better AA, AF and resolution.

We appreciate this!
Please God yes. It would be phenomenal on the Wii U. As long as the frame rate/bugs are worked out though.

We all know that "all home consoles" means PS3, 360, WiiU, PS4 and the next Xbox (and PC).
1440p on my 1080p TV or bust.

I wonder if the graphical difference between the PS3/360 and the PS4/720 will be enough for people to upgrade consoles this fall.
It seems the biggest difference will be the strong DOF blur, and probabaly amount and detail of particles, and reflections. Otherwise i think they would be identical sans general IQ.
Keep in mind that Watchdogs is apparently a GTA like sandbox game.
Some linear shooter will probably look a whole lot better.

Sorry i haven't seen it, just hearsays
Basically, there were two versions, the "next-gen" one (PC + Durango/Orbis) and the "current-gen" one (PS3/XBOX360), and the Wii U version was closer to the current-gen one at the time. But considering the novelty of the platform, the learning curve, etc, it's likely that the Wii U version will be between the two, without too much efforts from Ubi, thanks to more RAM, etc.
Ok. Here's direct feed of a couple of minutes of watch dogs. None of the combat, sadly. Just some outside stuff before dude walks into the club. I'll leave it up for a while.
P.S. The preview in dropbox is super compressed, and is not indicative of the file's quality.

If the Wii U version has Gamepad stuff I %100 disagree.

Thanks Arthur. Looks nice. Minor quibbles - trees dont move like that, and the guy getting pissed off about his phone going out was coming through my right speaker but he was on the left hand side of the screen.
Love how alive the city looks.
Love how alive the city looks.
yeah it might have maps and shit
totally worth a complete downgrade in visuals, physics, etc.
The sad thing is to some people on here it totally is.
it may even have a mini-game on the second screen!
Like, the guy hacks shit with his phone
can you imagine the GROUNDBREAKING INNOVATION™ of, like, your Wii U pad becoming his hacking phone! Hacking mini-games for everyone!
oh man plus real time inventory switching! Somehow it is different than just pressing Up on the D-pad to do the same thing, idunno
They can totally work with the concept of machine interaction with it...how about integration with miiverse with other people that are also playing the game for example...
Thank you.
