What next-gen launch games will you buy?

    So we've had E3 and now GamesCon. We have a concrete release date for the PS4 and more information on the Xbox One. So you may have already decided on which system you will be getting. But in this thread I'm more interested in what launch titles you are planning on buying.

    I'm getting the PS4 but haven't really decided on what games to get. Assassin's Creed IV will be my Christmas present so that one is ruled out. Also I'll have Drive Club as part of PS+.

    I am seriously considering getting Knack. At first I had no interest in it but the new videos look better. Plus the designer behind it has great pedigree.

    Then I am deciding between Call of Duty because the multiplayer is always fun, even though I'm not great at it. Or Watch_Dogs. The problem with this one is that it is another open-world game from UbiSoft and I don't want to burn out on that before ACIV.

    So what is everyone else getting?

    watch dogs, but it's not a launch game


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,699 ✭✭✭The Pheasant2


    Not a great selection tbh...might actually hold off on getting a Ps4 until some decent titles come out. I still have plenty of Ps3 games left on my "to play" list which should tide me over for the time being

    Battlefield 4. That will keep me going for a long time. I'll pick up watchdogs and killzone whenever I can spare the cash, probably after Christmas.

    None of them. Pre-ordered a PS4, going to cancel it or sell it if demand is high. None of the games interest me. The weird thing is the XBox one looks like it has the better line up. Think I should wait this gen out for a bit, like I keep telling myself and everyone to do. I'm such a hypocrite.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,505 ✭✭✭✭Xenji


    Killzone, Watch Dogs and NBA 2k14, plus any good PSN games that come out.


  • Registered Users Posts: 470 ✭✭JoePie


    Watch Dogs and COD:G pre-ordered. I'll probably download Killer Instinct. If I have the whole lot paid off before November, I'll probably pick p AC4 and Lego Marvel Super Heroes as well. And I'll have some FIFA to play I suppose.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,885 ✭✭✭SherlockWatson


    PS4:

    Fifa 14
    Driveclub as part of PS+
    BF4
    Madden 25
    Watchdogs


    And then hopefully inFamous and Planetside 2 when they're out.

    Knack is a day one buy for me on PS4. As for the rest I have some current gen games like ghosts and bf4 on pre-order , so I will get the digital versions of them with the discount for the next gen consoles.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,557 ✭✭✭KeithM89


    I have BF4 and Watch Dogs preordered for PS4, really excited for BF, unsure about watch dogs, its looking less impressive each time it gets shown.
    Il probably pick up Killzone after a few months too.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,678 ✭✭✭TrustedApple


    Will be getting Killzone, Ass Cread 4 and Watch Dogs day one for me

    Think the PS4 line up covers basically everything bar a RPG or something along the likes of that.

    Cant wait to the 29th of Nov have to book a day of my work placement before i even start LoL


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,929 ✭✭✭✭ShadowHearth


    Well, I got knack and killzone and second controller preordered. I am seriously thinking of getting cod to play with misses or my buddy as you need only one sub per console.
    All the rest of the stuff I am getting on pc like always. To be honest I don't even need ps4 as I am getting everything on pc, but I just love New hardware smell. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    New Super MariU Bros
    Nintendoland
    ZombiU
    Pikmin 3
    Monster hunter 3 ultimate
    Wonderful 101
    Bayonetta 2


    I think I might be lost


  • Registered Users Posts: 541 ✭✭✭Backfire


    i'd probably get call of duty ghosts, battlefield 4 and deadrising 3 for xbox one

    Battlefield 4
    Watch Dogs
    Killzone: Shadow Fall

    PS4


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,324 ✭✭✭chrislad


    Assassins Creed IV
    Lego Marvel
    Watch Dogs, though I may just leave that until later. Don't want to burn through the limited number of games that are generally in a launch and it's first 6 months.

    Battlefield 4, fifa 14 would be launch day pick ups for me. As I'm planning xbox 1 titanfall as well although I don't think this is guaranteed at launch yet.

    Titanfall is out early 2014 as far as I know


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,433 ✭✭✭Josey Wales


    I was really impressed by this video of the Killzone: Shadow Fall multiplayer.



  • Registered Users Posts: 13,084 ✭✭✭✭Kirby


    Fifa 14, Ryse and probably Assassins Creed : Pirate edition. :P I may get Watch Dogs on PC so it doesn't bother me that it's not a launch title.

    Feeling like that about Watch Dogs myself these days, looks a bit too Assassin's Creed in a modern day minus the parkour elements...

    The only launch day game I'll pick up for my PS4 will be Battlefield 4......


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 21,634 ✭✭✭✭Richard Dower


    Pre-order BF4 and COD:G and Knack for the PS4....i'll probably buy Watchdogs as well.
    I have Arkham Origins for the PS3 paid for and seriously considering GTAV

    I might go mental on PS4 launch night and buy the stand, charging station and eye cam.....


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,505 ✭✭✭✭Xenji


    A lot of the PS4 indie games look awesome, looking forward to getting Tiny Brains, Hohokum, Flower and Doki-Doki Universe.

    But these two look the best

    Contrast



    Counterspy

    Is Flower a port of the PS3 game?

    Not sure to be honest, I think Sony owns the IP not ThatGameCompany, I say you will get free on PS+.
