I was just reading an article about Watch Dogs on The Verge. I haven't really been that excited about it. This game is starting to come in strong on my radar the more I see and read about it. Starting to look really good.

kaiserfranz3657d ago

Yes, I think people have been too focused on the supposed graphics downgrade, but the game as far as I can see should be really good.

so I have to do the same thing over and over 40 times, that's called bloating, that was the thing that made me hate FarCry3 after loving it initially.

the Witcher 3 is doing it the right way, every quest will be unique

@NewMonday

You don't HAVE to do it. It's a side-activity that you can choose to puruse or not. If you like driving challenges, you can keep doing them on different sections of the map. If you don't, you can ignore it.

Watch Dogs isn't an RPG with questlines. It's an open-world sandbox game with a linear main storyline, maybe some brief side-missions, and miscellaneous activities like these that you can do on the side in the traditional style of the genre.

Enough to keep me busy for a long time!!!

Imp0ssibl33657d ago

yeah, it will definitely keep completionists busy!

markyboy21813657d ago

game looks amazing the open world game ive been waiting for

Alexious3657d ago

I'm really into the hacking theme of the game, especially after Persons of Interest. It's good to hear about all these side activities, but I also hope the storyline will be good

Gr1mmyshadows3657d ago

Good, this and titanfall should hold me over till Destiny drops

kaiserfranz3657d ago

Personally I'm already tired of Titanfall...Luckily I have Elder Scrolls Online (I know, very different type of game).

Gr1mmyshadows3657d ago

Hey everyone has their different preference

markyboy21813657d ago

Watch Dogs Deserves A Remake, More Than Ever

With the world of information and technology, privacy and security growing every day, Watch Dogs deserves another chance in the spotlight, now more than ever.

RaidenBlack1004d ago

The only Ubi title that deserves a faithful remake right now is Splinter Cell 1.
All 2014+ Ubi titles are just underwhelming. Especially ones from 2016+ are just cancer.

LucasRuinedChildhood1003d ago (Edited 1003d ago )

Seriously, are we so far removed from Ubisoft actually making good games that people now praise Watch_Dogs in retrospect?

"Watch_Dogs has remained one of my favourite games of the last ten years." Jesus Christ.

HankHill1003d ago

I remember being so disappointed in Watch Dogs when I played it at release. It was alright, but I think I fell for the hype and I needed a game to play on my new PS4.

obidanshinobi1003d ago

This is what happens when mediocrity gets praised as good.
Standards are slipping across the whole entertainment industry.
What was once considering rubbish is now considered as OK, what once was OK is now being praised as good etc etc.

LamerTamer1003d ago

Everyone has their own likes. I liked it a lot myself. I played through it twice and liked the car chases and the open world with fairly decent environments and missions. It suffered from the whole downgrade thing where they showed graphics that weren't actually there. No game will appeal to everyone but it was still ambitious for it's time.

assassin's creed 1 should get a remake.

ExBee1004d ago

For certain! AC1 was brilliant at the time but with new graphics and gameplay it would be amazing! Do you prefer old combat or new though?

RaidenBlack1003d ago

I'd say a reimagining of AC1.
I direct AC1 remake would be a bad idea. It'll need better story pacing and significant better world building.

BlaqMagiq11003d ago

Old. Let it play like how it did with AC2-Syndicate style gameplay but refine the setting and story.

Profchaos1004d ago

It would need a lot changed for it to be enjoyable again as even back in 2007 on launch we were all complaining about it's repetitive gameplay go here perform one of three side quests repeat then assassination now do it over and over until a big battle with a unforgiving checkpoint system.

BlaqMagiq11003d ago

Absolutely. It needs it. The only AC I truly didn't enjoy.

chicken_in_the_corn1003d ago

I'd prefer it didn't. Ubisoft would make it so bloated, it wouldn't be anywhere near the original

Absolutely, this watch dogs legion was terrible boring.

Profchaos1004d ago (Edited 1004d ago )

As a fan of the franchise legion was garbage and I regretted my purchase for the first time in the franchise the entire thing felt like an experiment in NPC behaviour and released without the writers input on what makes a good story.

I don't think I'm alone in that feeling though as wrench and Aiden are brought back and the campaign was rewritten to fit them.

I am tempted to buy the season pass to play it again with Aiden but fool me twice shame on me I'm waiting for a deep sale

camel_toad1003d ago

Agreed. Despite the annoying hipness of the characters in part 2 I thought it was a really fun game. I was extremely disappointed and surprised at how many steps back they took with Legion. You'd think it was made by an entirely different team. Or was it?

It was just so devoid of fun.

LamerTamer1003d ago

Honestly one of my biggest annoyances with Legion is that they took out the camera views for the driving. I mean the behind the car view that they stuck us with is near unplayable. I always used a first person driving view. After two releases why did they take OUT features? I don't get it.

TheSinsibleOne1004d ago

The fist watchdog game was the best by far
After that they weren't weird and annoying with that hipster stuff. Aiden was a badass.

LamerTamer1003d ago

I thought so at first too. I got used to it and it ended up being good after some play time. I just had to give it a chance.

TheEnigma3131004d ago

Remake the PoP series from xbox/ps2/gc era

RaidenBlack1003d ago

They are remaking Sands of Time.

TheEnigma3131003d ago

That's good news. Hopefully it's done right.
