Watch Dogs or Cyberpunk

 

[Roufianos]

In what universe is a glorified DLC as big as Halo. Spiderman won't get delayed because its a DLC expansion that Sony's packaging as a standalone game.

Because a lot more people are looking forward to playing Spiderman than Halo, seeing as Playstation has a much bigger fanbase at the moment.

 

[MrS]

Watch Dogs or Cyberpunk

No delay for Watch Dogs is going to make it good because everything including the concept, art style, graphics, story and voice acting looks absolutely dreadful.

 

[Ashraf’s Lioness]

Guys just for fun imagine a third delay for CP:

How would their reddit army respond to the news? Will Gaming Twitter run to defend them?

Will they get more praise because of their motto "out when ready"?

Why tf did they use specific date anyway? Will they do a specific date for a third delay?

LMAO the scenarios are just too funny. Not to be a drama queen but man a 3d delay would be an infinite amount of entertainment.

 

[Michael Hawk]

Could be Spider-Man. They can't afford to launch that game without ray-traced puddles.

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

I think it may be cyberpunk as well, but how would this article specifically point towards a sign of another delay?

If they aren't happy with it?

My guess is CP or COD.

 

[DeceptiveAlarm]

MP Trilogy.

How can you delay it when it doesnt have a release date or launch window

 

[Karak]

Another case of “I know stuff but can’t share stuff” ? You already shared it so why not say the game?

Because the discussion wasn't as classless as you interpret. Sometimes discussions happen and you self correct during them

NeoGAF: "Halo being delayed is the death of Series X at launch!"

Also NeoGAF: "Halo isn't a big deal anymore!"

Mankind will be safe as long as Spelunky 2 releases next month.

You're talking out of your ass.

Personally im going with spiderman because id argue thats not as big as halo.

Nah, Halo 5 sold ~5 million in 3 months, Spiderman over 9 million same time frame.

 

[JLB]

Nah, Halo 5 sold ~5 million in 3 months, Spiderman over 9 million same time frame.

Yeah, and lets forget that minor detail of release dates and shipped consoles at that time.

 

[01011001]

Heard this on the ACG Podcast hosted by our very own Karak. Go check him out if you haven't.

Anyway, he said he knows of a game delay which is yet to be announced, one that's gonna piss people off.

Guesses? I'm thinking one of Watch Dogs or AC. He said it isn't as big as Halo so we can probably rule out Spiderman.

if it's fucking Cyberpunk again I will ... I WILL ... I WILL



be really disappointed....

 

[BlackM1st]

AC Valhalla neither big nor "anticipated". Blatant Odyssey reskin on a much smaller scale. Nobody gives a F lol.

So yeah, I guess it's CP again...

 

[MDSLKTR]

Yeah, and lets forget that minor detail of release dates and shipped consoles at that time.

Does it really matter? Now there's more copies of Spiderman ps4 sold then GP subscriptions. Bottom line is: Spiderman is way more popular than Halo.

Just tell us the name does not start with C so we can rest easy.

Why do people keep saying CP2077 when the OP says it’s not as big as Halo? CP2077 is arguably one of the biggest games left to launch this year no way he’s meaning that.

Because maybe even OP thinks Halo is still big. Or maybe he means for the console launch shitstorm, It's all relative.

 

[Calverz]

Halo is a revered series that continues to sell millions and millions with each release for nearly twenty years. You cant compare spiderman to halo 5 only. Halo is the biggest xbox IP also. It generates far more hype and buzz.

 

[Puskas]

I was pissed off at Cyberpunk not because of the delay, but how crap the combat looked and how sparse the environment looks. If it's delayed again until next year, you'd hope that would give them time to fix the combat.

The empty streets can't be fixed because of the netbook CPUs this game is built around.

CP looks like an absolute waste of time on the current-gen consoles anyway. I’d bet it will look and perform like an ass too.

Better to wait and experience it on the PS5 instead.

 

[MrFunSocks]

You heard it here first folks. A new IP from a game that has not yet released is just as big as the iconic Halo. We don't even know if CyberPunk will even hit 80 on Metacritic yet, but it's bigger than Halo and will sell a tonne.....I heard some mad things about Titanfall, Evolve and Anthem......They were the next big games to eat lunches and make bullies stay home, but reality is always different than pipe dreams.......People think Witcher 3 denotes huge success and reception for everything that comes out of CD Project Red.....Some people never learn do they.......CDPR is getting hammered for the same reason Witcher 3 got flak for, the combat.

Haha you seriously don't think that Cyberpunk will sell more than Halo? This shouldn't be the first time you're hearing it.

Oh wait, it's the biggest fanboy of anything ever in the history of fanboys, so you're just trying to use that as an excuse to shit on Xbox. How the hell aren't you banned yet?

A game site guy teasing gamers a big name will get delayed.

Something that happens all the time.

I'll one up him. I bet two or more big name games get delayed.

Incoming Matt from Reeeeeee post "I've heard the same thing" haha

 

[Craig of War]

No if they delay Cyberpunk again after how long ive been waiting to play it i swear i am gone to lose it.

 

[Warnen]

I would be willing to wait on cyber punk if it meant my brethren on next gen consoles get the update at release. Also means wont have to split my time between that and destiny in November.

 

[RPS37]

I already own a last gen themed limited collector’s edition Cyberpunk console which came with a copy of the game.
it can’t get another delay.

 

[sircaw]

Already had Orphan of the machine, the dolphin game delayed, i don't think i can take anymore bad news.

 

[Warnen]

crazy they released those consoles before the game came out. Could have been a cyberpunk fridge Xbox series x.

 

[MasterCornholio]

I think it might be Cyberpunk.

 

[Moridianae]

I'm going to say it's Cyberpunk. But it's still a major title. I hope it's not another game for Xbox launch. Yikes.

 

[Black_Stride]

I'm going to say it's Cyberpunk. But it's still a major title. I hope it's not another game for Xbox launch. Yikes.

Another game for Xbox launch?
What other game?

 

[Moridianae]

The Medium, for instance, but it may be launch window, not launch day.

The other possibility is Forza and that would really hurt. Hopefully its a multiplat like Watch Dogs or Assassin's Creed.

 

[KormaChameleon]

It's going to be Cyberpunk. It has to be.

 

[alstrike]

If it's supposedly gonna piss off people then my money is on AC: Valhalla, because Cyberpunk 2077 is already bigger than Halo so...

 

[replicant-]

Nobody really cares about AC or WD3 after the last couple of reveals.

Well, that isn't exactly true. Both will shift multiple million of units.

 

[replicant-]

Don't take this the wrong way as Karak is good people, but I'm a bit fed up with the "I know something, but can't tell you" wankery on YT and Twitter just now.

If you can't say. Don't say anything.

 

[ExKing]

My guess would be Spiderman Miles Morales. I mean we have yet to see gameplay.

Covid19 will impact game development big time for next gen it seems

 

[replicant-]

Battletoads ;p

 

[DinoD]

Having a significant backlog of games on my PS4Pro. They could delay everything until March next year as far as I'm concerned. Selfish, I know. If its Cyberpunk, that's no good for Series X, since Halo In(def)finte is also not going to be the launch title. Then again. In retrospective, PS4 launch line-up was really lacklustre compared to X1. I know this is just a rumor, but come to think of it. We could potentially see a wave of delays due to Covid19 pandemic.

 

[graywolf323]

I could see it being AC: Valhalla given the creative director that stepped down back in June has since been fired

between losing the creative director & just the issues COVID has caused in development it wouldn't shock me if it would benefit from a few month delay?

IIRC didn't Halo Infinite have it's creative director leave a year ago or so & it's now been delayed (this is probably just a coincidence and not a sign that AC: Valhalla will also be delayed)

 

[The Fartist]

No delay for Watch Dogs is going to make it good because everything including the concept, art style, graphics, story and voice acting looks absolutely dreadful.

Dude, your avatar is pure savagery, holy shit.

 

[Warnen]

AC might sting more for next gen guys because the next gen version is day one unlike CP.

 

[JLB]

Does it really matter? Now there's more copies of Spiderman ps4 sold then GP subscriptions. Bottom line is: Spiderman is way more popular than Halo.

Definitely matter. But let's not continue derailing this thread.

NeoGAF: "Halo being delayed is the death of Series X at launch!"

You realize NeoGAF isn't a person, right?

 

[Greeno]

I think it might be Cyberpunk.

But Cyberpunk is as big or bigger than Halo.

 

[Black_Stride]

The Medium, for instance, but it may be launch window, not launch day.

The other possibility is Forza and that would really hurt. Hopefully its a multiplat like Watch Dogs or Assassin's Creed.

Forza Motorsport isnt a launch game pretty sure that was already confirmed.

The Medium? Maybe but I dunno if that counts as big.....or even kinda big.
Cool game concept and all, but its not exactly something that would make waves if it got delayed beyond the usual X hate.

 

[freefornow]

Bye bye Astrobot being pre installed on PS5!

Cyberpunk

 

[MasterCornholio]

But Cyberpunk is as big or bigger than Halo.

Then maybe something smaller like The Medium, Assassin's Creed or Spiderman?

But then again Spiderman is a pretty big franchise even bigger than Halo judging from how the last one sold.

 

[hououinkyouma00]

My guess is Cyberpunk which sucks because I'm excited for it. However this would mean that I can wait on buying a replacement for my RX580 which is nice.
