oh please this is nothing..  Ubisoft and the shit they pulled with watch dogs is a thousand times worse.    KZ actually looked like its e3 show,  and technically is rendering a 1080p image its just using a trick to do it.  so the image doesnt really get upscaled.   Watchdogs on the other hand is virtually an entire different game in comparison to the shit they showed.

If Watch Dogs looked a thousand times worse... then it would look like an Atari 2600 game or something. The final product looked roughly the same (especially on PC). Eitherway, you shouldn't make a purchase based on footage shown in 2012 for a game released in 2014.

Ubisoft was honest about the native resolution their game is running at and we were aware of the visual downgrades. Sony on the other hand mislead people just to boast 1080p.

Now that is definitely not true. The PC version of Watch Dogs was actually purposely gimped heavily. 

It looked nothing like its E3 reveal. It took some hackers and modders who looked into the games's engine and saw that the codes were changed to have parity with console versions.
