I believe a lot of the niggles on release of games is down to the variations in hardware from gamer to gamer.
If you have an xbox 360 then 99.9 times out of 100 its identical to all the other xbox 360s, same for ps3 etc etc.

Then when you move to the PC platform, everything goes out of the window because joe bloggs has an i7, 16gb ram and SLI 680s with windows 8 64bit and john smith has a AMD chip, 8gb ram and a 7850 running windows 7 32bit.

Do i have a point or am i spouting n00bie crap???

360 and ps3 are not 99% identical. mroe like 99% not identical that is why many devs say it a pain to port 360 games to ps3 because the architecture is completely different
 
Well looks like I now own a PS3.... -_-

Where's the best place to buy the game? GMG have it for £38.99 with £5 credit and I do use them a lot for STEAM purchases which would benefit in future purchases.

If you don't mind getting it a day late stick with GMG.

I preordered @ shopto cause you get it a day earlier
 
Colour me stupid if there is an announce, but I'm going to buckle and get this on PS3.

I can't wait, I want to be caught up in the hype. And if GTA IV is anything to go by, maybe I don't want it on PC anyway.

Perhaps sitting on the sofa will be a welcome change from playing at a desk. It's not even my PS3.
 
I went with GMG in the end :) The £5 credit I can use on future purchases as I do use GMG a bit.

John Smith is the noob, running 8GB ram on a 32bit OS. Rookie mistake! ;)
 
PC version confirmed?

*fingers crossed*

*legs, toes, eyes, fingers, arms crossed* :p

Most likely just a placeholder rather than a true indication of it's imminent announcement.

True but if there was no chance of there ever being a PC version somebody as big as Amazon would be told not to have placeholders and whatnot.

That's not what he said. He said all 360s are identical to other 360s, all PS3s are identical to other PS3s.

I was pretty shocked to find out how much more powerful the PS3 is, it's a shame nobody but Sony + Naughty Dog know how to use it to it's fullest extent, God of War & Uncharted are gorgeous games.

Just another example of the on-paper specs not meaning as much in the real world as people think. Won't be the same issue this next-gen though with the Xbox One and PS4 based on such similar architectures.

Too true, it's a shame the Xbox has fallen behind again on power now the PS4 is more accessible, I think that especially in the later years of the next gen it's going to show. If it wasn't for the Kinnect inflating the pricing of the ONE, they could have been the ones with more power, or they could have directly competed with the PS4 price wise, and it's going to have a strong effect at the end of the generation.

Really hope that V gets a release on the next consoles, it'll really shine. Quite shocked that it isn't releasing for wiiU, isn't it more powerful than the 360 and PS3?
 
The only games that seem to sell well enough on the Wii U are games that are designed solely for it. Most other multi-platform titles seem to sell poorly, which explains why so many publishers aren't supporting it for the most part. Ubisoft seems to be the only real exception there.

Makes sense, it's massively underpowered compared to the Ps4 and ONE isn't it as well. They need to make the Gamecube 2 already! They can still release their flagship titles on a console similar to a ONE/PS4 and do very well, and if they directly jumped in the fray with the main two with same specs and audience + the core Nintendo base and games, they'd do so well. I'd probably get it and no other console if it had all the same games + specs.

Poor Nintendo. :(
