I might have to check out PING 1.5+. Might as well throw 50 cents at The Letter too since the developer is a cool guy who seems like he's trying to make the game better.
Watch Dogs at full price? Whatever, Ubisoft. I'll pick it up used or in the bargain bin for $20 six months from now. I've waited this long. I can wait a little longer, now.
That is, assuming the reviews don't say it's a comletely gimped version of the game.
Ubisoft's shady dealings with Watch_Dogs in general, let alone the way they've treated the Wii U version specifically, is enough for me not to want to support them in the future. Can't say they've impressed me with the whole Assassin's Creed: Unity debacle either. If I'm gonna buy Ubisoft titles I think I'm gonna look for second hand copies from now on. Which is sad, considering how much I adore Zombi U and the team behind it.
@r_hjort Yeah, between the way they've treated Wii U owners and the way they're treating PC gamers, Ubisoft is dead to me, with the possible exception of extremely cheap Steam sales.
