I'm one of the few people looking forward to this. I might buy it because i want to support the developer as i thought The Order was a much better game than people gave it credit for. Anyways, it could be worth playing for a laugh.
@Totaldude911 Yeah, i think it lacks the mission design in 2. Also,i did find the characters in Mafia 2 that bit more lively and attachable. Great game, overall though, and people seem to overlook the fact it's impressive because the developers are a new studio and that this is their debut game.
@daveofduncan Oh, i've got Steep for christmas too, but i haven't started playing it yet. I'll give you my gamertag if you're looking for someone to play online with, i'll probably play it over Feburary half-term.
@get2sammyb I always look forward to the January Sale! It's always the best sale of the year by far. This year's sale looks no different, this is insane...
Tempted by Titanfall 2 for under 35, but i probably won't get it because it's nearly christmas. I'll be getting Watch Dogs 2 and Steep. Would anyone recommend i get it despite already having plans?
@Paranoimia Yeah you're just like me. I got the GTA 5 remaster and found it very average. I don't really know what people see in it. I really enjoyed the original Watch Dogs though, and a lot of people are saying this is a much better game than the original, so I think getting it for Christmas would be a no-brainier really.
@Paranoimia Thanks for the reply! I have been on YouTube to watch some Gameplay videos and I have particularly enjoyed the E3 game demo. It does look very engaging so far, with the actual gameplay and shooting mechanics being similarish to the first one, which should satisfy me. I'm just concerned it might feel too much like GTA, which I don't want.
@Chris0160 Cool, don't worry I appreciate all replies. Yeah I have looked at some game plays and I have seen the E3 one loads of times now and the story does seem engaging and The mechanics seem similarish enough to the first one to satisfy me. I'm just worried it might ware thin after a certain time.
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Hmmm i'm not sure as it is a new IP which has to compete with more established franchises for christmas sales. Looks awesome though, the idea is very fresh, and i have been holding off on playing the open beta as to keep it that way when i buy the full game with my HMV Vouchers i get for christmas.
@Paranoimia Hi, i'm very fond of the original and i'm one of the few who particularly enjoyed the tone and Aiden Pearce as the main character of the first game. I also liked the AR Games like Psychedelic and Spider Tank and the minigames like Drinking Games etc. I hear the tone for this one is different, do you think i would still enjoy this game?
It is actually a really good game in my opinion. It does have it's flaws, even i admit, but if you loved Mafia 2 like me, then you will definately like this. It's more or less got the same pro's and con's really. I think the second one had slightly stronger characters, story, atmosphere. But the game does have more ambitious presentation and more interesting themes of racism and discrimination than the second game, even though is still think Mafia 2 is the better game. However, that will always be a cult classic. It's gameplay is mainly stuff that you have seen before - but done really really well. Yes it's a little repetitive but games are. Even Uncharted is repetitive if you think about it because all four of them have pretty much have the exact same gameplay. I would recommend the game personally as it's really good stuff in my opinion. Especially worth a purchase if you liked the second one, but i would say wait for a sale if you was not very keen on the first or second game.
This week, i will be anxiously awaiting the release of Mafia 3, which i'm hoping will be a very good game but i am cautiously optimistic knowing the second one is my favourite game of all time.
@AFCC Yeah, this will be like game of this gen for me. Was blown away with the second one. It's funny because whatever game i buy with the PS Store voucher i got for my birthday will have to wait until 2017 because i need to 100% complete this one.
No suprise there... I will probably give it a miss too as I'm not really hyped for this. I think DriveClub will go down as the definitive PS4 racing experience.
I really enjoyed the main game but this seems a little unplayable to me. Not because of it's quality, but you need VR, Camera and Move and Night Time to play this. This seems like a lot to ask for what is likely a 7 or 8 hour experience to me.
