Please elaborate. It seems very much like the final product to me. But clearly you know something I don't.


maybe you just have bad eyes. 

Maybe you should stop with attacks and elaborate.

I don't think the 2012 footage looks particularly impressive, the final game doesn't look much different.

I thought watch dogs will be my first pick when I get ps4. Then it got downgraded and delayed. I avoided ps4 launch to avoid high prices in my country. Now I will get GOTY edition later. But its good for ubisoft. Even though they deceived us they did a good job.

have you actually played the game? the downgrade in graphics smartguy. should I go on? 

Please go on, genius.

Is your only concern potentially downgraded graphics? If so... well that's just sad.

that is'nt sad. that's one of many marketing lies!!!!! It's the classic bait and switch. I expected one game and got something completly different. end of story,cased close. I would sue for false advertising if I could. good day sir!!!! good day!!!!!!


Hey, Digitalfoundry also believes the graphics of the final product are at par with with the 2012 trailer. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2014-watch-dogs-tech-analysis

Eitherway, consumers aren't as concerned about graphics as much as you are. Lets bear in mind the best selling 8th gen games aren't necessarily the best looking titles.

This irrational hate for Watch Dogs still amuses me. Everyone I know loves it though. Must be the hate bandwagon.

Well hell! You've been able to preorder for over a year now.



"Games are a trigger for adults to again become primitive, primal, as a way of thinking and remembering. An adult is a child who has more ethics and morals, that's all. When I am a child, creating, I am not creating a game. I am in the game. The game is not for children, it is for me. It is for an adult who still has a character of a child."

Don't actually know anyone that's disappointed with it that's actually played it, it has a lot of variation and is tons of fun.

But irrational haters gonna hate, I guess.

its a new IP from a big publisher. I don't know why so many people were waiting to pounce on this in a negative way. We have a 3rd party pumping big buck into a non fps new ip - its a good thing.
