Jeez, IGN is just horrible.
Because we don't put much stock into what people who most likely have had zero contact with the actual game write on the website.

Oft hope is born when all is forlorn.
Because majority of the marketing people don't know jackshit regarding all this stuff. And they are the one who would be in charge of all this stuff. So need something solid from developers.

Did IGN just look at the thread on GAF and make an article on it?

Muy interesante. I need to be a part-time game journalist.
But back on topic, I hope what they said is true. I just want to know if the controls and feelings are more like Saints Row or GTA

Its been a few days now and we still don't have an official statement.
This is ridiculous.

I'm inclined to believe this at the moment. Word would have surely got through to Ubisoft and Sony about this informations and they would have at least said something by now if it wasn't true.

Isn't telling people it's 1080p/60fps enough? Do they have to make themselves look complete jerks by bragging about it?
My thoughts as well.

I hope it will be huge difference on both systems. I love system war.

you can't read too much into what people say at preview events where they're rarely playing the game in a controlled environment.
for example, Eurogamer's reporter claimed that Mario Kart 8 was 1080p at a recent preview event, when it's clearly 720p.
and if they don't?

I agree with this. Surely Ubisoft and Sony will talk about this. What a selling point if this is true. I will give my PS4 a big sloppy kiss right on the USB port.
Then mankind will be no more...
Well then he gets really upset. Cancels his preorder and buys it day one anyway.
Why?
makes forums entertaining?

That is unless they are running these confirmed articles to bait out Ubisoft. If thats the case then good job?
on the quality of game journalism?

So the press are just quoting the Sony site.
Why don't they ask Ubisoft to confirm it?

Any decent "journalist" that is worth two shits would have done so already. Bet everyone is just waiting for confirmation/denial from the horses mouth(Ubi).

Lol I only venture onto IGN for the comments and the Watch Dogs one delivers.

Sometimes I question if it's a real person doing the posting
"Download the fanboy bot app today"
Because they get more traffic this way. If it ends up being unconfirmed by Ubisoft they can update the article and get even more traffic. There are very few sites in the video games industry that care about journalistic integrity or quality.
El. Oh. El. Seriously?
Highlighting your product's competitive advantage makes you look like a "complete jerk"??? Only in console wars do you see nonsense like this.
Can you imagine a Ford guy getting butthurt because a Chevy commercial brags "Best in class whatever" (provided it's true)? No, because in every other market, we expect companies to highlight their strengths...except for gaming, where we wouldn't want anybody to get butthurt. If I were in PS4 marketing, the words "Ten Eighty Pee" would be in just about every ad, because I think the power difference will play out as a serious competitive advantage for them. It also begs the question "What is it on Xbox?", which is a question Sony should want the consumer to be asking about every Xbox game.
That said, I'm highly skeptical that an open world game of this scale is 60 FPS on PS4, and I think it's an error.

Rhetorical: Are Sony so unreliable in terms of communications that them getting such a fundamental detail on their own site wrong is the expectation?

Dont news sites usually ask around before posting news from somewhere else as confirmed? Did IGN contact Ubi or Sony yet?

What ... What? How can you be missing the point?
in other words 'JOB DONE!'
No need to be a jerk about it is there?
