Watch Dogs
 

if you're like me and didn't see the Ubisoft E3 stuff, czech it. Looks great, only thing that really "stood out" for me along with Beyond and South Park that I've seen so far.

Industry people are saying they're sure this isn't PS3/360 and will be next gen. I'm torn, I would expect a bigger jump for that and this may just be a PC version they're showing off.

As for the game though, looks phenomenal.

Dunno, never thought once while watching it, that it looked too good to be current gen.

I don't think it's next gen and hope it isn't. The graphics looked similar to Beyond to me.

Supposedly Ubisoft confirmed it's for PS3/360/PC. I say supposedly because I saw it on Wikipedia.

Wow, this looks fantastic.

Didn't think it looked next gen. Just a really nice usage of current gen.

And confirmed for current gen.

This looks fucking awesome

Yeah. I was watching it today and it looked amazing. Could have sworn the guy was using a PS3 controller to do the demo.

I'll grab it, no doubt about it. But, you guys ever watch that new show Person of Interest? Kinda reminded me of that.

Watch Dogs (stylized as WATCH_DOGS ) is an upcoming cyberpunk-themed stealth science fiction open world third-person action-adventure video game

quite a mouthful, and yeah this looks pretty rad

I love the detail more than anything.

I love the differences between regions.

This looks lovely. I can't wait to play the watered down current gen console version we'll no doubt get. :(

Stop stealing Reqtum's gimmick.

I wasn't aware he had a gimmick.

It's not really a gimmick so much as him being a complete idiot.

I'd say it's better than never voicing a real opinion, but I'm sure you disagree with that notion.

Reqtum runs Skyrim on an Apple 2C.

What does that even mean? What are you even making fun of? Second time you've made a comment like that and it makes no more sense than the first time. In any context. Is it just so you can have a private laugh when it goes over my head so you can pat yourself on the back at how clever you are?

Ubisoft backtracking on rumors and hints of this game appearing on current gen consoles and instead might have accidentally leaked out when the next Xbox and/or PS4 arrives with the 2013 date.

This was the speculation going around in the first place about several titles, wasn't it? We were seeing next gen games disguised as current get titles?

Love that its set in Chicago, but I live there so I'm a tad biased.

Hope I can burn down my office building.

Ubisoft already considering selling the rights to make a movie based on the game just from the reaction gained from the E3 debut.

What could possibly go wrong with that?

I think Ubisoft went a little too much with the whole idea of everything being hackable and visible since it was revealed during a promotion, the company accidentally leaked out everyone's email who joined.

Some promotional stuff was recently leaked leading to the current speculation of Ubisoft might be including the Wii U and next gen consoles for the game when its launched later this year.

So far only the PS3, PC, and Xbox 360 have been confirmed while the Wii U was only rumored to be getting the game.

I was trying to remember the name of this the other day. Looking forward to it.

Wii U version should be getting confirmed soon now that big name retailers are adding the Wii U for their pre-order and purchase web pages. Also only started to be added in once the promotional stuff started to appear online and/or those stores started to receive them.

Ubisoft officially confirmed the game will arrive on the Wii U, PS4, and next Xbox. The announcement was made shortly after the game was announced for the PS4 during Sony's announcement show.

According to Ubisoft, even though this game was originally announced for current gen consoles first, the game was actually developed for next gen consoles before they decided to also make it for the Xbox 360 and PS3.

Also tease the PC version is the superior version since it acts as the bridge between gens and as the main platform the game is being developed on.

In regards to the Wii U version, they are still tinkering on what to do with the Gamepad for features.

Developing for PC and porting to consoles is the way to do it right, good for them. I might now pick this up on a Steam sale or something.

Every game will now probably be developed for DirectX/OpenGL on PC and ported over now since the consoles are so close to it anyway. Even then, they still might not bother releasing the PC version.

Fuck'em then.

Not cater to a market that's less than 10% of gaming? Ridiculous.

Ubisoft announces the release date for the game is November 19 for North America and November 22 for Europe.
A special edition poster was announced as part of the pre-order exclusive from Gamestop.

Graphics look great!

Totally going after work tomorrow to pre-order.

Yeah, might wait to pick this up on PS4.

Ubisoft recently announced two retailer specific pre-order bonuses for the game:
