Unfortunately, next gen consoles are not powerful enough to handle the Watch_Dogs of E3 2012. Is what Ubisoft did misleading? Not necessarily. It depends on whether or not Ubisoft knew what the next gen consoles specs were at the time. Maybe Ubisoft thought these consoles would be more powerful but there is no way to no for sure because they would never admit to anything.

It's EA aka the epitome of corporate greed. You should have expected this.

Side Note:

I really REALLY dislike EA. They always end up ruining potentially great games by forcing the developers to rush the game and make it more 'appealing' to a wider audience. I think that gamers will eventually get tired of this crap and start funding projects themselves. Star Citizen is a great example of this.

The Google definition of elite is "a group of PEOPLE considered (by others or themselves) to be the best in a particular society or category, esp. because of their power, talent, or wealth."

I do not think I personally am above or better than anybody else because I decided to spend more money on a machine. I do think my machine is better than your machine (console) in most ways because I have put more money into the hardware. The phrase "You get what you pay fo...

That's what I was thinking. These next gen systems just are not powerful enough to handle the Watch_Dogs of E3 2012 and when Ubisoft realized this they decided the game needed to be delayed. It's not Ubisoft's fault these consoles can barely hit 1080p with their launch titles. It's Microsoft's and Sony's fault. I think that if they put another $100 towards the GPUs then this would not be a problem.

I already went the PC route because I was worried that...

Ok, the game has been visually downgraded. There is a reason why. So...why?

I haven't seen the new trailer but if it does look so much worse than before then I think that it's only because the consoles were not capable of running the game before and if they were Ubisoft would not have had to make any changes. Watch_Dogs was announced well before we had any knowledge of these next gen consoles hardware and when they finally were told what the specs were, Ubisoft realized that it would not work. That's the most plausible explanation I could think of and I d...

Back when 7th gen started consoles were virtually neck and neck with what PCs were capable of at the time. The GPU that is the closest equivalent to the PS4 is the 7850 which is two years old and the Xbox equivalent is the 7770. These consoles can barley hit 1080p (well the PS4 can) and it'll only get worse. I have a feeling that this console generation is going to be shorter than the last.

As far as the CPU goes, consoles do not need desktop grade because for one gaming ...

It's difficult to compare desktop CPUs/APUs with the APUs of consoles because for one the APUs in the consoles are based on a custom architecture that is not available to the public.

Also, consoles do not need the power of a consumer grade desktop CPU because they run on a stripped down OS and don't rely on 100 different background process like Windows for example.

The comparison of the PS2 CPU speed and PS4 CPU speed is nothing more than an advertisement for the PS4. Truth is, the number of cores and clock speeds do not matter as much as you may think.

AMD is known for manufacturing weaker cores and boosting the core clocks of their CPUs while Intel generally has the more powerful cores and slightly lower core clocks which is why the Intel Chips are usually higher up on the benchmarking charts.

The point? Don't let...

Wait Wait Wait...You are lumping movies like Robocop and Rambo in with The Human Centipede?!

Nintendo...mediocre first party department. Well, you are entitled to your opinion though many would disagree. Myself included.

The users on here like to do that. It doesn't or shouldn't matter. I think that if they downvote you more that they think it means they are right or something. I don't get it really.

Nah, the game isn't all that demanding. 7680x1440 means Triple monitors at 1440p. I'm sure you could achieve that with a couple of 780s. A single 770 should be more than enough for 1080p with a single monitor at ultra estimating between 50-60FPS maybe but idk for sure

Tomb Raider DE looks like the devs took the Sharpshooters ENB from Skyrim and applied it to Tomb Raider. Does anyone else see it?

4368d ago 1 agree2 disagreeView comment

Ok if it hasn't been confirmed 1080p by now then it isn't going to be 1080p more than likely. Nothing else to see here. Move along
