Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Watch Dogs Vigilante edition weird pre-order bonus?!?!

Tagged games:

Games lately, especially the GTA series has copped massive crap for being too violent in recent years and at times, even some gamers such as myself see there point. I mean, shooting down hookers in cold blood "just coz" is a pretty violent thing to have in games...... Even though it's fun as hell.

That brings me to my point, down below I posted a picture of Ubisoft's upcoming best seller, (hopefully for them anyway!) Watch Dogs. I was looking up the place-holder price for both the Xbox ONE and it's games when I came across this...

 

I know, it's pretty weird but cool none the less. Will Ubisoft get media flack for it though? What if the unthinkable happens and someone commits a crime, serious or not while wearing the outfit? They'll get negative media attention for sure, they're ready to pounce at the drop of a hooker! How will they respond to this? Well? Poorly? At all? Discuss!!

I don't think a scarf is illegal in my country? when it's cold I walk around like this:



 

Face the future.. Gamecenter ID: nikkom_nl (oh no he didn't!!) 

well, it will narrow down the suspects to the people who bought the special edition, and with all the new DRM, it will be pretty easy to find out who they were...



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

Lol, nor should it be. It's actually a bandana though and it's intent is to keep one's identity a mystery, or at least how he wears it. What if someone buys the special edition and commits a crime? I can see the media jumping on the game and screaming DEVIL even if someone wears a regular one during it's release window.

Not to mention the Kinect can see them with all the stolen goods/money/whatever once they get home!!!!

Lol, yeah. They'll probably just want the stolen goods! Who would you believe? A convicted felon or MS?

Not sure if I should even bother asking that on this site right now!!
