EPTI "had" to buy a PS3 early to secure a backwards compatible one but ended up not playing any PS3 game on it until Uncharted 2. No such rush this time. Watch Dogs pre-ordered for PC.

Help me out What are your interests ? There isn't that much choice in the launch list to really not being able to decide. You like sports ? Get one of those 2014 edition. You like sologame ? Maybe AC4 then You like MP shooters ? CoD or BF4 Want a party game ? Just Dance (non-gamers of mixed gender, requires PSmove I guess) or Lego. Then there are the games I don't know what they are worth (Skylanders, NFS, Injustice) | ||

Anyway, will just wait the 29th for people like Angryjoe to have the time to write a lengthy review to make a better opinion. Been disappointed too many times by mainstream critics these past years. Either way, never expected a launch title to rock worlds. Resogun is getting pretty good reviews by the way. | ||

Game is averaging around 75% so far (Some going up to 90 and some like 50-60) mostly saying Great graphics and then having opposite feelings from one review to the next concerning originality and level design. Watching a little on gamespot earlier it seemed meh. So that sounds about right. No flavor, and I noticed the ai stops occasionally. Although, it was singleplayer I believe and I found it weird that the players can't jump into the water. | ||

Me too, watching some twitch tv streams (MP and SP) it felt... meh, i looked pretty (if you been playing on a PS3/X360 thats it....) but it was more of the same, didnt see a single thing that was "wow thats cool", so the reviews seems to be on-spot, and besides that ive i just cant remember a single awesome launch after the N64 with Super Mario 64 Ive yet to find a single reason to own any of them, and Shadow Fall seems like will not change my opinion... not to mention, between upgrading my GPU on february (R9 280X seems to be the choice) and sooo many games coming to 3DS, i have problems trying to get another console | ||

I am a big Sony fanboy and own every Sony consoles but I always buy my console at least 6 months after release. If you like it, but in no way crazy about the PS4, just wait untill next summer when the games really going in, you will have a great time with the new console. | ||

SandyBridge i5-2500k + 16 GB RAM + ATI R6950? I can't figure it out. My config is over 2 years old and was very close to top then. | ||

There are games that meant to be played on console and there are games that meant to be played on PC. Companies esp Western companies release alot of games for every platforms just to milk some more money. RPG, Fighting games, Racing, Action, Platformer etc are meant to be played on console. RTS, FPS, MMORPG etc are meant to be played on PC. Some genre are good on both like ARPG, Advanture etc But for me I refuse to play any competitive FPS on console, while I love the feeling off lying on my couch in front of a big TV screen to play JRPG, or Action games and playing Fifa with my friends. The most important things to me is the feeling of playing games with a big TV screen using a controller, there are features that mouse and keyboard can not replace. | ||

Thats not 100% true, both points actually For once, Consoles while not a 100% comparable (almost everything is custom made) the architecture and technology in which they created the consoles are, nowadays consoles are pretty much PCs, so in that regard his PCs its way ahead of any of the console, especially in the CPU part, PS4/XB1 CPUs are awful and not even meant for gaming (http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2013/05/27/week-in-tech-hands-on-with-those-new-games-consoles/) but does that even matter ? its quite debatible, feels like that step that the PS4/XB1 took in this generation was quite small compared to last generation in comparisson to the ones before it, the thing is, console gamers have the same specs and means that you have to optimize your game for just 1 kind of specs. Is your PC better than next gen consoles ? Yes, by a wide margin, especially the CPU. Are you really going to see the difference in games ? It quide depends on the developer, im pretty sure PC-exclusive developers will make games that look way way better than this generation of consoles will ever do And the second point... Nowadays its really easy to hook up your HDMI cable to your TV, a 360 gamepad and sit in your couch, almost every game now has controller support, and with SteamOS/BigScreen this is getting almost like a "needed" feature, so we are getting to the point that PCs are pretty much PC+Consoles, and the actual saving grace of consoles being 3 things A) Exclusive games B) Buy, plug and play C) the know-how needing in PC gaming its A LOT more than consoles Im getting a PS4, anyway, pretty much around June or so lol | ||

Consoles have always had lower raw specs. But on the other hand they get the following benefits when it comes to performance: -Their architecture is made with games in mind. Both from a hardware point of view and software point of view (OS). -Every machine is the same, making optimization and debugging a lot easier for a console than a PC -PC ports have been known to be often crappy. So all those games that get a delayed PC release often end up just being better on consoles. Not all of them of course. | ||

Just plug PC to TV, save yourself 400$, and play all those games that you want to play on TV with better gfx. | ||

If I remember correct both Xbox and Xbox 360 had top tier PC level specs at their launch. PS3 to a lesser extent but is still a beastly machine at its time. But yeah PS4 and Xbox One specs are disappointing. | ||

Well that seems to be my time to buy a PS4 then :p so far none of the launch titles is anywhere close to convincing me to buy one. Still quite surprised that neither Sony nor Microsoft dished out the money to make either AC4 or GTA5 a "launch exclusive" for their console. | ||

There are some area that consoles have its advantage and via versa. There are many games that will never happen on PC : God of war, Uncharted, Lots of JRPG, all Nintendo games etc... I upgrade my PC on a two years cycle and can run most game on high/max setting. But I prefer play alot of them on console. The hussle to go thru installation, boot time of a PC , TV out config is not worth it while you can have a much better experience sitting on a big couch with a big TV and bot a game up in a matter of seconds. | ||
