Oh dry up and play your games within your own limited horizons. Both machines are fine, both have good games, both have their virtues and failings. Get over it.

Well, the original Witcher had some serious bugs, including a game breaker that drove me and thousands of others nuts, but CD Projekt learned from that and their response with fixing it and free content was comprehensive and generous. They've become one of those rare developers who do the best they can upfront, and if the delay means they deliver the game they envision in good order then all power to them.

@Cryptic_Shadow @pgpointon

Because pre-order prices fluctuate on sites, sometimes going up or down, but most online stores guarantee the lowest price level that occurs in the duration of your order. For example, I pre-ordered Guild Wars 2 at £25, where the final price turned out to be £37. My current Assassin's Creed Unity order stands at £40 on Amazon, whereas the price shown on site at present is £44.99.


This situation can even work for hardware. Zavvi jumped the gun on the start price of the Xbox one, so I got my Day One edition for £30 less than final retail.

In the end, if it turns out that you don't fancy a game based on information received after pre-order, as is the case for me now I know more about Shadows Of Mordor, you can always cancel.

Must admit this video caused me to cancel my pre-order. It looks rather dull and repetitious.

@gamergath Yep. I think you're lucky not to have played it before in fact. I was round at my mate's when he started the PS4 version, and could see he was going to become as absorbed as I was on the PS3, but I have to admit that I didn't think the remaster was convincingly enhanced.

It's sharper and maybe - maybe - the textures are a little better, but where before seeing it in action I felt I might double dip and revisit one of my most memorable gaming experiences on new gen, I now think that when I do I might as well stick with the PS3.

@redserpentmetal

Yeah. Lots of treading water on both sides. Microsoft might have raised theirs a bit if they'd saved the pre-E3 announcements like FH2, but they'd already shot those bolts.

Brings your Titan down faster, and makes constantly bugging out necessary. One of the rationales of the game: you HAVE to keep moving.

Sliced bread is overrated. Bread that toasts itself, now that will be revolutionary.

How to make a useless post.

Choose to misunderstand or deliberately misrepresent why and how a game utilising new concepts works, probably out of a sense that you're missing out.

The review's fair enough, though I think Ms. Petit has mistaken misanthropy for misogyny. The game hates everyone - which is fair enough.
