I'm going to wait and see on this one. I think they've been prioritizing the Xbox version because of their relationship with Microsoft, but we'll see how it turns out. If it's a similar situation like with AC:Unity I won't be buying it at launch.
This will be a good tester to see how strong the Assassins Creed brand currently is, because I wouldn't expect a game like this to sell too well without that association.
@BLPs yeah. That speaks more of retailer demand than consumer demand, but of course they're intrinsically linked. Still, it's not the same because the games might not move that quickly.
@themcnoisy haha! Glad to here I'm not the only one! Halfway through our epic Raid I went from shouting to whispering to saying nothing at all and. My woman was getting that mad with me.
I'm taking a break from Destiny. I really don't need to grind my gear because it'll be made trivial when House of Wolves comes out. I'd still like to do Crota's End with a PushSquare posse though. So today I've played Killzone: Mercenary on my Vita.
I want more Uncharted now goddammit! Even if it is replaying the old ones!! Give me more shiny graphics, more trophies and more interviews with the developers talking about how goddam-awesome Uncharted is. Is that really too much to ask?
I'm not too disappointed. Perhaps now this opens the window for an Uncharted collection 1-3. I would love it if they remastered the whole series and did extras for it as well. IMO Uncharted deserves that kind of treatment.
@Splat I'm definitely not sure about it. I'm honestly not sure that I'd ever wear a VR headset while someone else is around. It's creepy and if they wanted to speak to me, they'd probably tap me on the shoulder, which would be scary. Even on my own, I still need to be able up pick up my phone, which I'm not going to switch off. So many problems with VR, unfortunately.
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi I think it was games like Assassins Creed 3, Far Cry 3 and Burnout Paradise on PS3 that raised expectations. There was a period where it seemed PS Plus was a AAA solution for a lot of gamers.
@AyeHaley I find that weird too. You can't download an apology and play it on your PlayStation 4. Complaining about indie games... Well, they have a point... PS Plus doesn't provide as many AAA games as it's users had come to expect.
@SteveButler2210 I don't think people will pay extra for a title they're not going to own. And I don't think Sony will sell upgrade versions for games that are tied to a subscription service.
@kyleforrester87 I think they can't put Knack on Plus because it's metacritic score is too low. Shame really because it's definitely fun to play through at least once, I think.
Hmmm... Might be time for me to pick this up... This is my back up in case The Order is a flop, or I might get Dying Light instead. We'll see, but this is encouraging.
@SilentEvil Long games are hard to pick up again after a couple of weeks break, or more. I didn't actually finish Skyrim or Fallout 3, but they are both games, if you have the time...
@Azikira I agree. I keep playing a game until I get bored of it. For example, I played through Infamous Second Son twice, which is longer than my one playthrough of Watch_Dogs. If it's a good game I really don't mind playing it again. If it's boring and repetitive of course I'm not going to play it again...
@Jaz007 I agree completely. How conceited and self-serious does a reviewer have to be to not want to put a score at the end? In case the reader doesn't want to bother to read your article. I have to be honest, and say many reviews are trash anyway. You get some nincompoop telling you why open-world games need to be revolutionized somehow, instead of giving the reader any information about the actual game. That number is the only useful thing in half these reviews, and now they want to get rid of it...
Fantasy settings allow for more interesting gameplay. One doesn't do much shooting, racing, fighting, platforming, flying in the real world. Unless you give gamers a fun action to do, it becomes less of a game and more of a 'choose your own adventure', or visual novel experience, which is not something most gamers are in the market for, IMO.
I'm getting bored of open world games. Batman Arkham Asylum should have been a lesson to other devs. Sometimes less is more. Rocksteady didn't even follow that when they made Arkham City, and the new one is probably going to be even worse because they have to give you a reason to drive around in the Batmobile. Overall, more games like Arkham Asylum please.
The good thing about this game is that people can see how bad it is without losing any money. How they think their going to make any money with this trash is beyond me.
@get2sammyb Yeah maybe Watch Dogs, Destiny, Driveclub and AC Unity all had their individual disappointment articles. I don't know, but it seems like Pushsquare is trying to get into the whole group-think internet hispster market. I suppose it's normal as many other sites are like that too.

Re: Live: Find Out Exactly What Destiny's Trials of Osiris Is Right Here
It's not what replaces the Raid. This is PvP stuff.

Boom! Buy dem shards! That's good news.
Re: Live: Explore Destiny's New Social Space in House of Wolves Right Here
What is this Prisoner of Elders they keep talking about? Is that the horde mode? Why are they so defensive about this stuff?
Re: Live: Explore Destiny's New Social Space in House of Wolves Right Here
That discussion about story / Grimoire cards was awkward!

Re: DriveClub's Getting a Free Tour as Part of a New PS4 Update
Sounds like they made a PS Plus tour that they're testing out before launching the Plus version of Drive Club.
Re: Review: Mortal Kombat X (PlayStation 4)
@get2sammyb What about the Vita version?
Re: Square Enix Is Backing the PS4 with More Unannounced Titles Coming This Year

Re: Your PS Vita Is More Powerful Than Ever Before
@XFsWorld really? I might buy that game if it doesn't come to Plus. I still enjoy my Vita and want to buy more games for it.
Re: Your PS Vita Is More Powerful Than Ever Before
How about a Borderlands 2 patch? Get that framerate up... Make it playable...

Re: Review: Bastion (PlayStation 4)
@General_Spiller I don't think this game is coming out for PS3.

I'm actually going to wait to play this on Vita seeing as though there isn't much else coming out for it...
Re: Next God of War to Set PS4 Apart from the Other Platforms
I like Kratos and the graphical style of GoW, but am sick of the combat.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Easter Edition 3
Resogun on PSVita. That has to be one of the Vita's best games.
Re: Talking Point: What One Game Do You Always Come Back To?
Sonic the Hedgehog. I have a trusty copy of Sega MegaDrive Collection for the PS3 for when I need it.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 62
Bloodborne. I really like this game: makes me feel like a kid a again.
Re: Bloodborne's PS4 Pre-Load Is Ready to Go in North America
@BLPs Ahh the Wii U and it's many virtues.... I love retro gaming.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 60

Re: PS4 Exclusive Uncharted 4: A Thief's End Has Been Delayed into Spring 2016
@MinerWilly None of those games are very good. You should get Dying Light IMO.
Re: PS4 Exclusive Uncharted 4: A Thief's End Has Been Delayed into Spring 2016

Re: March's Free PlayStation Plus Games include Oddworld PS4, OlliOlli 2, and Valiant Hearts

Re: March's Free PlayStation Plus Games include Oddworld PS4, OlliOlli 2, and Valiant Hearts
@kyleforrester87 No. I think a quarter at the most. I just wasn't enjoying it.
Re: March's Free PlayStation Plus Games include Oddworld PS4, OlliOlli 2, and Valiant Hearts

Re: March's Free PlayStation Plus Games include Oddworld PS4, OlliOlli 2, and Valiant Hearts
I bought Valiant Hearts in the sale. Didn't like it much. Waste of £4 to be honest.

Re: Talking Point: Do Review Scores Have a Future?
There is no good reason to remove review scores. Eurogamer has lost the plot.

Re: Talking Point: Are There Any Remasters You Still Want to See on PS4?
I would buy the Uncharted trilogy and Skyrim on PS4 if they were well done. I would also buy MGS4 if it was well done and came with some extras.
Re: Rumour: Apotheon, Transistor Free for PS4 in February PlayStation Plus Update
@rastamadeus Trolling much? Rogue Legacy is a very good game. If you don't believe me, try it on PS4. It's cross-buy!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 53
Destiny - Driveclub - Destiny - Driveclub - Destiny - Driveclub etc. etc.
Kind of got my eye out for what's going to break this pattern, but don't see much on the horizon.

@ztpayne7 Other M is a great game. I 100% completed it and enjoyed every minute of it. Weird how people didn't like it.
Re: Talking Point: Is This Gaming's Most Disappointing Ever Year?
