NT Fam do you guys usually wait for a review first for a certain game you're thinking about getting or you just go and get it regardless of review?  (Favorite series of yours is excluded)

I'll use an example: I waited for infamous Second son review.  I never played an infamous game.  I was thinking about getting it since i have no other games to play on the ps4 and needed a new game. I've heard the first two was fun on the ps3(I had a 360).  I was contemplating and wanted to buy it, but I am the type that don't want to waste money on bad games.  After seeing 80/8s in most review I bought it.
I use to but now games and reviewers are so bias its hard to take many reviews seriously..... esp when it comes to certain series of games and certain companies.

infamous is well depending on the type/style of game you like is good... I typically prefer 3rd person action adventure games (I use to love fps but now they are oversaturated and too too many are starting to be copies of one another) it isn't your typical game and is "different". I like the story, characters and background of games...although second sons is meh.... the other stories series in terms of depth is better. The design graphics and effects of the powers are awesome in the game... I could see someone finding it a little mundane cause the gameplay can be repetitive.

in comparison to all the other ps4 games it is one of the best if not the best...but that is mainly do to most of the games being ports from prior gen, or short lived ps+ games. TBH it is really the only game I play on ps4...
 
Infamous is a good game and you can get a lot of fun from it. Traversing the world is fun and so is the combat. It's a solid 7/10 IMO. My only complaint with it is that the later 2/3's of the game felt rushed. The characters you meet feel very one dimensional and you don't do much with them at all.

Why is everyone slandering Watch Dogs in here?? What happened lol. I thought that game was gon be hot but yall scaring me now on it haha

Also beat Infamous SS on hero. Now beating it on evil. I always have played the Infamous games like this because of the change in storyline & powers. As good as SS is, part 1 & 2 are better. Only the graphics & them neon & computer powers are better than the first 2 but other than the first 2 win in everything else. SS is so short smh Theres more complaints but overall I like it alot more than I dislike it. Running around in neon thru the whole city >>>>
:lol: :smokin

Well ubisoft dun goof'd up.  First when they released trailers it looked AMAZING.  Like glorified 1080p graphics.  Then came the downgrades to 900p when they stated they're trying to aim for 1080p and 60 fps.  I could be wrong but that is what everyone is complaining about on gaf

I was one of the people disappointed when I saw the downgrade in the graphics, but then I had to remember that those trailers were shown on PC. All games do this. GTA looked amazing too in the first trailers and screen shots, then people were disappointed when the first gameplay trailer came out. It still looked good, just not what we were promised.

Same with WD. the game still looks good, just not what we were promised. I do think it could've looked better if it were a next gen only title, but it's still good as is IMO.

screenshots from the article that was just posted. Keep in mind that these are from the beta, so the final product will most likely look more polished

Based on the shots, the game doesn't look good or bad, it's just average. IMO, GTA V looks better because the art direction takes it further. 
 
Just cancelled my Watch Dogs preorder. No reviews allowed until release day. I been around long enough to know what that means.
 
anyone checked it out looks decent..iuno kinda puts me in the mindframe of bayonetta sorta
I heard it's not along the lines of dynasty warriors with a few RPG elements. My brother had part 2 and I mostly remember hack n slashin
 
Google’s YouTube has reached a deal to buy Twitch, a popular videogame-streaming company, for more than $1 billion, according to sources familiar with the pact.

The deal, in an all-cash offer, is expected to be announced imminently, sources said. If completed the acquisition would be the most significant in the history of YouTube, which Google acquired in 2006 for $1.65 billion. The impending acquisition comes after longtime Google ad exec Susan Wojcicki was named CEO of YouTube earlier this year.

Reps for YouTube and Twitch declined to comment.

IMO GTA doesn't look better than WD; at least from a graphical, textural, or lighting standpoint; which is what people have been saying. I do agree with you on the art direction, although I might be a little biased because I love southern Cali :lol:. I just hope they manage to make the world feel more alive than V did.

AINT THIS THE TRUTH.

it is going to be an average game as most of you have already mentioned.

Neat social experiment to see how much marketing can really sell a game. Unless the reviews come out gangbusters, looks like it'll be an average game. But the marketing push is pretty heavy.
