i think the 3 character mechanic can be labeled "revolutionary" when it comes to a game like this, its been done before, but never like this...... 

 

 

i dont think watch dogs will be as good as gta 5

Am I denying that GTA V will be a huge blockbuster, AAA title? Not at all. I'm sure it'll do very well in terms of both quality and quantity.

It's not so much about whether or not Watch Dogs is nearly perfect in every way--it's the fact that it has more unique gameplay to offer us. And that alone, at least for me, is enough for me to be more interested in it than in GTA V. I still will likely be coming back to the GTA franchise more often than with most franchises, which is usually a rarity for me, considering how many other unique IPs I'd like to try out. I don't have enough time, patience, and/or money to continue to invest in the bulk of long-running franchises that I've come across in the past.

As another open world title, MGS5 will especially be interesting for being largely a stealth game. And one that has both light and shadow stealth, as well as stealth which is based on field-of-sight/distance (as was the case in previous MGS games). AC has never been about all the different forms of stealth layered together (with no light and shadow gameplay to be found), so this will be a true stealth experience (unlike any other that has come before it, including other open world games that include a little bit of stealth, such as Far Cry and Crysis, just to name a few).

My only concern is that GTA V's story won't impress as much as GTA IV's. Judging by the trailers, it doesn't appear as serious, so the character development will probably not be anywhere along the lines of something like GTA IV. That said, it's still great that it's going down the route of being more like Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, with lots of features, only way more polished this time around. I still feel like Watch Dogs and MGS5 will be a greater breath of fresh air because the directions that they're taking are less familiar (even Star Citizen's concept sounds more interesting/unique), whereas we've been getting the same GTA experience since GTA III, even if the formula has been improved upon a lot since then.

You know, there's a thing know as separation from state (at least here, in the States). It doesn't matter if the kind of Sharia law that these "courts" have has nothing to do with cutting someone's hand off or something else very violent and brutal; the laws that one abides by should always be secular. If it involves getting divorced in your religious place of worship, then that is fine, I guess. But taking it out into the open, where something like Sharia law overrides a country's/province's laws in determining what happens with breaking the law (i.e. murder, stealing, fraud, etc.), that seems like giving religions too much power.

In my opinion Islam have no place in any civilized country now obviously i cant stop people from their belief but "we" should not be giving them support by building "islam only schools" and mosques and so on. We even have special "rules" and so on for islam only :(

Christians can have their private schools and places of worship. Why not Muslims?

I just was wondering if there's anyone here that feels like they spend too much of their time wishlisting things, possibly to the point of either never getting enough complete satisfaction of just how many games, books, electronics, TV shows, etc. you'd like to get your hands on but have no money for it, or buying too many items at once, only to feel overwhelmed by your backlog. It seems like I've had this problem for a long time, going back to my early teen years. And throughout a lot of the time, I've spent more time thinking and ruminating about all the games to play, movies/TV shows to watch, books to read, etc. that I've spent more time reading about things than actually experiencing them. And when I do try to do something, I may find myself thinking at the back of my head how I want to blaze through this as fast as possible, so that I can move on to the next item on my wishlist.

Because of today's mass consumerism, I guess some people (like me) get so pressured to own and buy a lot of things that it begins to feel like one's own worth is based on all the money and possessions one has, even to the point of making me feel worthless at times. It seems like a form of OCD/ADD for me to end up this way.

But enough about me. How do you feel about the idea of wishlisting? Does it really benefit you in any way? Wouldn't you be better off using that time to go out and get something productive done or to enjoy what you already have even more? Why do certain people feel so compelled to go out and seek things which bring instant gratification but don't help one lead a more successful life (which is more about getting outside of one's comfort zone rather than constantly having all this wishful thinking)?

Eternal Darkness was a broken game, but an interesting one which has a cult following, so despite the fact that Dyack has a long track record of failure, perhaps this will get funded.

The graphics in the trailer look a little more cartoonish than one normally sees in a survival horror game, but I think they work. Platform(s?) are unannounced, but we'll find out when this hits Kickstarter on Monday. Three humans (only two of whom seem playable) are shown in the trailer, as are doglike monsters with big fangs and lots of spikes (which look exactly like the monsters in the prison in the second Riddick movie).

There would need to be a lot of changes to the GOW formula if the franchise is to go on and not continue appearing stagnant (which is the case right now). Otherwise, I wouldn't get my hopes up. This isn't a very flexible IP like FF, Mario, or GTA.

At the very most (and I'm being really generous here), a spin-off that takes the theme of God of War to a different place other than Greek mythology might work. Something like that of Roman mythology or Egyptian mythology to really mix things up more. The latter might actually be the best option since it'd feel a lot fresher with its environments, weapons, and mythological creatures. Heck, even a more tribal/indigenous approach would be more fascinating and unique.
