Does it look better than Watch_Dogs?

[Capital]

Watch Dogs looks loads better. But it doesn't make it a better game.

I enjoyed both, but visually WD>Gta 5 although on next gen GTA5 will probably be better.

For the ps3 gta5 did good.

[Gdog]

Overall I think GTA V looks better than Watch Dogs on both PS4/PS3.

 

GTA V > WATCH DOGS PS3. End of.

 

Watch Dogs on PS4 does look a bit better because of the lighting and maybe higher fps. but apart from that it isn't that great looking. It says something when a game running on 8/9 year old hardware looks better than a console that's only been out 8 months or so. I'm not hating on the PS4, it's the best console out. The blame lies with Ubisoft.

 

When GTA V comes out on PS4 it will blow Watch Dogs out the water.

To all GTA V haters and Bland_Pupps fanboys. Show me a comparison pic.

[Red Hat]

This is GTAForums, what kind of a reply do you expect?

This is GTAForums, what kind of a reply do you expect?

An honest comparison like eurogamer's. Where it shows that GTA V is the clear winner because of more realistic lighting, better textures, farther Draw Distance, better details. and better optimization at the same time.

 

Not something like "W_D looks better because it's better because GTA V has good gameplay and good gameplay has poor graphics" or "Watch Dogs looks better(because I'm lying."

Watch Dogs looks loads better. But it doesn't make it a better game.

GTA V is the clear winner. Can't you see the attention to detail and lighting? Does real life look like the W_D pics?

[mvdk26]

WD's graphics are just a little bit too cartoonish for me.

GTA V's graphics are just better imho.

 

I haven't played much of WD so far, but come on...

those amazing feelings when you drive in the sunset of Los Santos in your matte black Massacro....

 

 

you can't beat that.

[gildedpie]

gta 5 is way better.

[DODI3OG]

Why do idiots compare W_D PS4 to GTA V PS3?

It's still obvious that W_D PS3 is sh*t compared to GTA V PS3! W_D PS3's graphics are so GTA 4-ish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

gta 5 was made for last gen and watch dogs was made for current gen. watch dogs looks better.

You're looking at it through different views, and 2 those the graphics look nothing like WD on PS4. They actually look worst. But you don't own WD so you wouldn't know

Honestly the graphics are crap in WD.

Graphically the PS4/XB1 Versions of Watch_Dogs are a bit better than Last-Gen versions (PS3/XB360) of V apart from that LG versions of V is Superior than Watch_Dogs in everyways and with that said,the NG Remake of V just make WD look like a complete joke...

I disagree man. The graphics in GTA V were far better on current than Watch Dogs on next gen.

GTA5 trashes WD in all Categories even the NG/PC version also proves that...

Both games are great, IMO. It's just that some of you are hating on WD simply because it isn't a GTA game, or as some of you put it, a "GTA clone".

 

The real battle will be GTA V (PS4/PC) Vs WD (PS4/PC).

Ubi shouldn't have released WD for last gen, IMO. This would have allowed them to make a better PS4/Xbone/PC experience.

The dev team is completely dedicated to getting the most out of each platform, so the notion that we would actively downgrade quality is contrary to everything we’ve set out to achieve. We test and optimize our games for each platform on which they’re released, striving for the best possible quality.

 

The PC version does indeed contain some old, unused render settings that were deactivated for a variety of reasons, including possible impacts on visual fidelity, stability, performance and overall gameplay quality. Modders are usually creative and passionate players, and while we appreciate their enthusiasm, the mod in question (which uses those old settings) subjectively enhances the game’s visual fidelity in certain situations but also can have various negative impacts. Those could range from performance issues, to difficulty in reading the environment in order to appreciate the gameplay, to potentially making the game less enjoyable or even unstable.

How could you honestly prefer Watch_Dog's sh*t f*ck grey graphic fidelity over GTA V is something I will never get.

The previous gen GTAV already looks better than WD current-gen.

I have corrected your post. Do you even know what next and current gen means?

 

Current as in currently, as in belonging to the present time. We're currently playing the PS4 and Xbox One in the present time hence they're latest release of consoles in the current gen.

 

Next gen means upcoming, the PS4 and Xbox One are no longer upcoming, they're already here.

 

But, PS4 and Xone are commonly referred to as "next-gen consoles" and PS3 and 360 are commonly referred to "last-gen consoles". So when someone says a game is coming out for "next-gen" only, are you going to assume it's only coming out for PS5 and Xbox Two?

Not anymore. They are now "current-gen" consoles.

Graphics looks better in GTA V last-gen and new-gen, no doubt, but sometimes the lighting is horrible (try getting inside Tongva Hills' cave at day and you'll see what I'm talking about, something similar happens in WD when you're inside the elevator that leads to The Bunker), as well as V's last-gen's bad grassy floor and character textures. But... graphics don't make nothing a better game imo, I'm enjoying Watch_Dogs a lot more than V, in all honesty, it doesn't pisses me off when I'm playing and luckily for me I'm not a graphics addict, I play both on Xbox360... yea, WD in freakin' 360.

[RyanBurnsRed]

 

gta 5 was made for last gen and watch dogs was made for current gen. watch dogs looks better.

 

Watch Dogs also started off as a last gen game.

When they started developing the game the PS4 and Xbox One dev kits didn't even exist.

 

Both games started development around the same time...2009

The graphics actually DO look like this when it's raining.

[Elvis_Mazur]

comparing both xbox 360 versions, gta v's graphics are waaaaaaaaay better.

[Gdog]

i think gta v looks better. i'm not saying that because i'm on a gta forum or because im a gta fan.

 

i enjoyed watch dogs but the graphics are poor especially for PS4.

 

the only thing that makes it look better than gta v is that it's got a higher fps/resolution. the V next gen version will have way more than just a boost in fps/resolution.

i dont own watch dogs? you stalking me or something? how would you know if i own it or not? just face it watch dogs has better reflections, rain, characters, car models, and foliage.

 

 

If watch dogs on ps4 with no graphics mods looks better than gta 4 with graphics mods on pc, i think we know the answer as to which game looks better.

[Delta India Echo]

car models

Pfft. Now you are starting to talk completely out of your ass. $wag boy.

2. Watch Dogs

3. GTA V Current Gen

Those graphics look nothing like the graphics we recieved for PS4 and they don't look better than GTA IV modded:

 

 

That's the actual graphics for PS4.

Fact GTA V has better graphics, animations, and textures. The weather effects goes to watch Dogs.

GTA fanboys, GTA fanboys everywhere.

 

Although I do think GTA V is better...

Both games are great, IMO. It's just that some of you are hating on WD simply because it isn't a GTA game, or as some of you put it, a "GTA clone".

Ubi shouldn't have released WD for last gen, IMO. This would have allowed them to make a better PS4/Xbone/PC experience.

Honestly I just hate watch dogs, because is a overhyped game.

But you atleast GTA V lived yp to most of it hype. Watch Dogs was completely a let down from AC4.

 

 

GTA V looks better, but Watch_Dogs is the better game.

 

@Walkingsickness, that doesn't make much sense, GTA V is running away with the poll and the majority of people on here would pick GTA V over Watch_Dogs, so how are people on this topic "on Watch_Dogs' dick"? Not only that, but GTA V has had smoke blown up it's ass by reviewers and gamers everywhere, the game's been over praised and given undeserved 10/10 scores all over the place. So if anything aren't people, as you would say "On GTA V's dick"?

Yeah... Watch dogs has better gameplay. In your opinion. You think GTA V is winning because this is a gta v website? OK, we'll see:

No it didn't. People expected a good, long story, they expected fully developed characters, and decent endings. Was Franklin a fully developed character? Was the story long? Do you think that the endings were great?

 

Heck, people even wanted a fuel system, and even started petitions for it!

While it may not have lived up to most of the hype, GTA V was still a great game.

 

Watch_Dogs' major disappointment was the graphics downgrade. However, the story and the content are both excellent, IMO.

While WD didn't meet the hype for graphics, it met my hype for a great story story and good characters.

 

Both games are great, but GTA V is better, IMO.

Honestly GTA V had a better and longer story. Adien was a jack a**, and the charaters were easily forgettable. I think some people though GTA V story was weak because there were only 69 missions, but I got the concept. The plot wasn't excatly as good as IV's but I enjoyed V more. As for Franklin, he was a bit of a bi***. But he is still a better protagonist than Adien. Adien is boring, mean, and overatted. The gameplay is also lacking. Such as the combat: There's only takedowns, but no fighting, the parkour is mediocore, the hackings was repetitive. The physics are crazy and half finished. Not to mention the single player is full of bugs. So I'd say the graphics aren't the only disappointment. As for the endings in GTA V they could made the shootouts longer, added a few other things. But as for ratings:

GTA V: 9.25

Watch Dogs:7

 

I would gave GTA V a ten but the storyline should of been a bit longer.
