Same here, although the reviews I have read on the PS4 and PC versions have all said it's somewhere between good and quite good. I'll be downloading and playing the PC version from Steam tonight.

I'm playing wolfenstein new order and Watchdogs, both on PS4. Although WOlfenstein makes me feel a little queasy after an hour or so.

Got watchdogs on PS4 not just for the slightly better resolution an graphics than xbox one but it has an extra 60mins of gameplay.

Watch Dogs, looks and plays great on Ultra settings, but the game is a bit flat. The driving is terrible and the rest has all been done before.

Wolfenstein. Very enjoyable and good fun. Though tried it with a joypad. - soo wrong. Can't beat PC/Mouse.

Watch dogs is GREAT!!!! Simple, an I'm always right. Of course the PS4 version is described as the definitive version. Sneaking into someone else game and hacking them whilst I'm hidden parked up in a car watching them running around trying to find me before I hack them is the best fun ever. As the hack zone gets smaller an smaller an you're trying to walk around like a normal NPC. It's just amazing fun, so much here HAS NOT BEEN DONE BEFORE!!!


Or someone comes into your game un-noticed an starts hacking a backdoor into your phone, you're desperately trying to find them before the hack gets to 100%. It's just really great fun. You know he can see you, but they look just like a normal NPC to you.


Wolfenstein is so on rails it's unbareable.

At the moment playing plants vs zombies for xone, might give watch dogs a go tomorrow on the ps4.

Watchdogs is actually pretty cool. Most of the fun seems to be had outside of the plot which has come under a lot of fire and you can understand why from a pretty early stage. The game design itself though is very clever indeed... tons of potential in the franchise.

Spoiler: 
I love the way that, when you hack the first ctos tower the first task in the mission is to buy an assault rifle... All guns blazing then? no, if you're creative enough you can actually hack the tower through the cctv cameras without even entering the restricted area.

Lol at Bogof, the PS4 compared to a high spec PC isn't a comparison.*

I understand your comparison about wolfenstein being on rails, but that's crazy to say it's unbearable as most games are but with Wolf it's exactly how it should be. Still it's bound to be crap if you're playing a FPS on a console, lol. But even Watch Dogs in on rails as you so call it. Drive A-B, do a mission and repeat - outcome the is the same.


* There are issues with Watch Dog on the PC as it stands, people are reporting stuttering when driving, probably something to do with a high amount of Vram needed.
There was a day one fix and Nvidia has already released a optimised driver to help with the game. I have notice very occasionally the odd stutter but nothing as bad as day one and I'm sure it'll be fixed in time. My comp handles it very well (GTX780ti). I must admit when driving using cockpit view with everything on ultra is really looks amazing.

You are right the PS4 version is better than the XB1 (not just because of the extra content), I really hoped the XB1 would redeem themselves over the PS4 but I'm starting to worry and feel sorry for XB1 owners now. Just not good enough.

But the game itself is good, lovely to look at, the usual play as in GTA, driving kills the game unfortunately, I just wished they spent more time on that aspect as you will be doing a lot of it. 20 odd hours play is plenty as GTA 5 was THE biggest disappointment ever when it came to completion time.

To be honest I'm enjoying slow driving and exploring the map more than the missions which isn't exactly how it's supposed to be.

I did not compare watchdogs on PS4 to PC lol, nore did I compare Wolfenstien to anything.

I simply stated as fact Wolfenstein is on rails, I also stated the PS4 version of Watchdogs is described by Ubisoft as the definitive version, no comparison there either.


Nore did I say Watchdogs on PS4 is better than Watchdogs on Xbox one. You have a great imagination.
