I'm really curious to see a release date and I would love if this game could run like that on PS3. I want to believe, specially after watching The Last of Us demo.

It's confirmed running on the PS3 internally at Ubisoft apparently, but they haven't shown any console version for obvious reasons most likely.

 

[Danielsan]

If you have a capable PC why would getting this on wii u even be an option?

Because some people still like to pretend that the Wii U will be some kind of powerhouse console that will blow away the PS3 and 360.

Thanks, my Laptop is only good to support indie devs and small games. I do have a PS3 & 360 so my best hope is the game to run fine on the PS3.

[Fine Ham Abounds]

You know, after Dragon's Dogma and Saint's Row 3, I've learned that I'm far more enamored with good lighting and physics than good textures (not saying this has bad textures). This and AC3:Lib are the 2 things so far this E3 I didn't see coming but I may not be able to refuse.

 

[RS4-]

The last bit with the traffic jam and gas explosion, hopefully that isn't scripted and there are dynamic crashes and instances.

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

Ubisoft decided to split the demo into 3 files, but it's almost all there, in much better quality than youtube:

Wow!! Finally a game akin to Deus Ex where I get impart justice on corrupt powerful individuals. Bravo! I am hoping that the full game can follow through on their promises.

Also, dat grafics! Magnifique! I thought for a moment that the conversation between Adrian and gun dealer was pre rendered! Stupendous lighting. Has a vibe of Cryengine 3.

Is it using Cryengine?

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

jesus christ that explosion.

That's the sexiest thing I've ever seen.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

All the media is of the the PC version, the one im going to buy, so Im happy.
The donwgrade of the 360 and PS3 version can be really bif in this game.

 

[Carbonox]

Yeah this is easily Game of the Show for me. Absolutely sensational. UbiSoft killed it.

 

[MYE]

Because i dont like to play games on PC

PS3 it is i guess. Unless the first entry of this new IP turns out as boring as the first AssCreed. Then I'll wait for the far superior sequel

 

[Kinyou]

I'm still expecting this to come out for the next gen consoles

Some people just want to watch the world burn.

 

[K1ng P3n]

I'm a 360/PS3 fan myself so I'm very interested in seeing how this is going to run on those machines. I'm also a realistic person too, so I know that there isn't a chance in hell they will look like that gameplay demo.

 

[Pistolero]

Mighty impressive by today's consoles standards, but below what I would expect from a next-gen game. Either way, the setting and the potential possibilities, coupled with some amazing gun fights make it one of my two games of the show so far; the other one being TLOU.

 

[Bisnic]

If you have a capable PC why would getting this on wii u even be an option?

Maybe they're interested in what the controller can do?

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

I'm still expecting this to come out for the next gen consoles

If its really 360 and PS3 at the end, im expecting a WiiU version also (because is as capable as those two), but im not holding my breath up.

Maybe next year ubisoft decides that they have move this game only to next gen consoles becuase they say they need more power to transmit their vision or something like that.

I dont mind because I will play it on my PC.

 

[.la1n]

Never thought I would say it but yes Ubisoft really did kill it at E3.

 

[Glorified G]

Gaddamn these gifs. Can't remeber the last time being this impressed by a game before.

Because i dont like to play games on PC

Then why do you have a capable PC in the first place?

Maybe they're interested in what the controller can do?

Seeing that graphic quality being streamed completely on the controller would be amazing.

 

[watershed]

Looks very good, especially the lighting and animations. I wonder if it will actually release this gen.

 

[Sethos]

Because i dont like to play games on PC

Yeah, because hooking it up to your TV with a controller is so disgusting, fuck PCs.

 

[StoppedInTracks]

Because of Novelty? There are couple of reasons why would he. No need to jump on the guy.

 

[The Chef]

Cant believe I am just now seeing this video.
The switch into gameplay in the beginning of the video made my jaw drop. And the sound! Holy crap that sound design is amazing.

 

[Doc Holliday]

Gaddamn these gifs. Can't remeber the last time being this impressed by a game before.

You know you need powerful pc's for stuff other than games. 3d apps come to mind

 

[Kinyou]

I'm personally more put off by all the technical issues that can happen. Like wrong drivers. I remember posts like this during the BF3 release

So fucking annoying I can only play 15 minutes or so, then freeze. Release new drivers nVidia dammit!

Also do I not want to worry "will it really run like this on my pc?" whenever I see a trailer.

On consoles you usually get what you see. That's sometimes good, sometimes bad, but at least I know.

 

[Sethos]

I'm personally more put off by all the technical issues that can happen. Like wrong drivers. I remember posts like this during the BF3 release

So you didn't have issues, you read other peoples issues? Updating a driver takes less than 10 minutes and is no hassle. Stuff like this is only a problem if you want it to be. Plus games rarely have driver issues, more like BF3 is the only game I can remember in the last few years.

 

[Doc Holliday]

I play games on my pc and monitor. Moving my pc which is also my work computer to the living room would be pretty annoying.

That said, I just hooked up a wired 360 controller to pc. Fuck it's nice seeing darkstalkers run at 60 fps +

 

[Struct09]

Finally got around to watching the demo, and hoooo boy this game looks awesome. Ubisoft is having a pretty good E3 so far.

 

[Phonomezer]

Absolutely incredible.

 

[Lonestar]

Might have been mentioned, but I like the "Person of Interest" level of technology interaction the character has. Able to hack phones, screw with traffic signals, get instantaneous information on anyone.

 

[Backfoggen]

Yeah, because hooking it up to your TV with a controller is so disgusting, fuck PCs.

Not everyone has their shit set up in a way that makes it possible.

Oh, I had lots of issues with my PC games back in the 90s.

Maybe that has changed overall by becoming more comfortable, but I see no real reason to go back and find out if that's true.

+ I tried playing some Diablo 3, and while technically it should still work on lowest settings on my pc, it doesn't. And I just don't have the nerves to find out why.

 

[Sethos]

Well, that's their problem, not the platforms.

Okay then, guess your opinion and views are completely valid in 2012.

 

[Acquiescence]

Ambition of this scale always impresses me. It's a bit like Deus Ex, but set in a sandbox and with even more options available to you. Not to mention those incredible graphics and all that attention to detail.

Where the hell did this game come from.

 

[Backfoggen]

Well, that's their problem, not the platforms.

No one said it's the platforms fault dude, you're the first one to bring up this aggressive "Fuck PC" angle.

Aggressive, haha - You must be a sensitive guy. I was being jokingly sarcastic using a naughty word.

 

[Reuenthal]

This looks fucking awesome, the highlight of E3 so far. I also got that Deus Ex vibe and that is a positive.

holy fucking shit i was so busy this week i only checked the microsoft and sony conference out.

DAMNNNNN THIS LOOKS GOOD.

im sure my 2 6950's wont be able to handle this on max.

any speculation about a release date in 2013 or something?

it looked so finished and ready, no way this is 2014 right?

I wouldn't be surprised if what we saw is more of a proof of concept than an actual game.

They said they've been working on it for 2 years and already confirmed the platforms for it.....

 

[cackhyena]

btw. the Woman getting shot in the car reminds me an awful lot of that Rainbow Six target render.

Watch_Dogs / Rainbow Six

A person getting a shot in a car reminds you of a person getting shot in a car.

 

[The Lamp]

There is just so much to laud here.
1) The multiplayer concept is fresh and brilliant. It's like open-world GTA IV multiplayer but with an emphasis on investigation and communications control--a tinge of Heavy Rain Norman Jayden vibe.
2) The graphics are unbelievable. I couldn't believe how everything was going on and the facial animation was so enchanting.
3) The game brings new ideas to the table and seems to execute them well. There's a variety of different communication control options and they all seem to have a fleshed out purpose in missions.
4) The voice acting is nice.

There's not a single thing in the demo that I felt was an unnecessary or badly executed aspect of the game. Just holy crap. I want this immediately! This is how you do a demo! And everything looked like it was in a state that could be released tomorrow and sold!

 

[I H8 Memes]

This was definitely the most impressive game of the show, but rewatching it there is so much that just doesnt seem right. There were way too many custom situational animations for a real game. The bar scene looked so real because people were turned or sitting in a very natural way that you would see in a bar. But no animation engine would know how to do that, it would have to be done by hand. So much custom dialog from people in the streets and bar. The cars crashing just happened too perfectly as well. Is it possible his car could miss other cars in the collision? Probably scripted and maybe if you dont trigger the lights it's mission failed, or maybe you have to go to an alternate spot on the other side of the club to kill him.

But how much of a city could they have all of these custom situations, dialog, and animations for? It's not a matter of if the hardware can handle it, it's a matter of how many man hours it takes to put all of this stuff in. Taking everything together into consideration there is a lot about this gameplay trailer that doesn't feel right.

Felt exactly the same way. Seems to offer a lot of possibilities but I'm not sure how many we'll actually get.

 

[bigboss370]

the only way i would accept multiplayer in this is if it was like Demon's Souls, instead of multiple players occupying the same city/sapce at the same time.

are there no interviews from any of the gaming media outlets with the developers?

Yep, we're definitely being Killzoned. Moreover, knowing Ubi Montreal's recent history Watch Dogs will be a proof of concept that isn't a good game with Watch Dogs 2 being the real deal.

Incredible. Simply incredible. I can't wait for this.
