Sweet. Don't own The Witness.

coolbeans2241d ago (Edited 2241d ago )

So you're telling me there's a chance I'll see you on XJuan? :P

Christopher2241d ago

Not likely for a while. Far Cry 5, Tera, Ni No Kuni 2, then maybe The Witness.

Oh I'm Def gonna play Assassin's Creed Syndicate, Never played it before and I've heard good things about it. I love puzzle games too so the witness looks fun.

Palitera2242d ago (Edited 2242d ago )

I'm curious about The Witness as well. But Syndicate... Damn... It's one of the reasons the last AC is so good. Syndicate is plain AWFUL, worst AC I've played by far. They realized how bad AC games were turning and gladly decided to take action.
But try it... It's "free" anyway...

lxeasy2242d ago

For me the worst AC game is a tie between AC unity and AC 3

DrewMetals2242d ago

You’re crazy, Syndicate was great. Not as good as 2 or Origins, but still really good.

Palitera2242d ago

Ixeasy, haven't played Unity. That said, yeah, AC3 was horrible, but still had decent combat and animations. In Syndicate the animations don't even hit the enemies.

UnHoly_One2242d ago

Syndicate was really good.

Better than 3 and Unity for sure.

I despised the combat in Origins, so I'd say it's better than that as well.

IamTylerDurden12241d ago

Syndicate was a bit dry. I always dreamed about the setting, but it was a disappointment. I actually liked the setting in AC3 better. The pacing was terrible in AC3, but the American frontier was awesome and the game was beautiful in its day. The King Washington DLC was a cool idea as well.

Syndicate was good. There is some clumsiness to some parts of it, but it is a big improvement over Unity and AC3.

It did take a bit of time to get going, so be a little patient at first.

IamTylerDurden12241d ago (Edited 2241d ago )

I got Syndicate two Black Fridays ago at Walmart for $8. I got Unity last Christmas at 5 Below for $5. Both new, PS4 copies. You can typically find AC games dirt cheap at ideal times because Ubisoft floods the market.

The Witness is actually a great game to get on GwG. Recently, GwG has been lacking, but this is a good month.

timotim2242d ago

I don't own any of these so I'm looking forward to all of them. My 8 year old will love Cars 2, she's currently liking Pixar Rush a ton.

ZeroX98762242d ago

The Witness and Dead Space 2 are awesome titles!
I Hope The Witness gets on PS Plus eventually :)

Underrated that's debatable.

chicken_in_the_corn171d ago

One of the most overrated imo. A big step backwards from Unity.

Relientk77171d ago

I loved Syndicate! I played this game mostly as Evie because of her stealth abilities and loved using a cane sword.

Is Assassin's Creed Syndicate worth playing in 2023?

GF365: "Is Assassin's Creed Syndicate worth playing in 2023? Many veteran fans consider this game the last “real” Assassin's Creed game. Did that opinion age well? How does Syndicate compare against the previous game, Unity?"

I would say more maybe when you burned through your backlog.

cbuc1125441d ago

I thought it was great back in the day. Evie was a master at stealth, while Jacob was the fighter. Good 💩!

glennhkboy440d ago

I didn't find them that different in terms of stealth vs power.

cbuc1125440d ago

Well they were. She could go full invisible and blend into the environment at the highest level. Jacob could shoot a gun mid punch while fighting. You needed to build out the skill tree.

Chocoburger440d ago (Edited 440d ago )

It was the last in the series I actually liked, before they went full-blown grindfest. This game had grindy features too, but at least it had some limits.

My biggest issue was that it didn't move the modern story forward which was a let down. Still a fun game, though.

robtion440d ago

Definitely, it is a great game with a really detailed setting.

Unfortunately, you can't play it on PS5 though as it has a major flickering glitch with the lighting/shadows which makes it unplayable.

robtion440d ago

Really? Great, thanks for letting me know. It must have been relatively recent because when I downloaded it to play again on PS5 sometime in the last 12 months it was still really bad.

Good news though, now I can give it another play through. Never did the Jack the Ripper quests previously so want to give them a try.

P_Bomb440d ago

Yeah the patch was most appreciated. That graphic breakup/flicker was awful.

MadLad440d ago

Still consider it the best since Brotherhood.

DarXyde440d ago

Brotherhood was the last one I liked, but in fairness, I checked out after Revelations (which I really struggled to maintain interest in long enough to finish it. I eventually did but I couldn't tell you a thing about it though because I really did it out of necessity to finish something I started).

By that time, fatigue really set in and I simply don't care about it anymore.
