Those screens don't need to be the WiiU version. It's a horrible way to release the game, with no footage at all. They sure want some sucker buyers xD

BTW can you parkour in Watch Dogs? Climb buildings?

It pains me to say it, but I expect a poor framerate, judging from Ubisoft's history of badly optimized Wii U ports. AC4 and Splinter Cell chugged along at around the 20fps mark when things got hectic, I wouldn't be surprised  if Watch Dogs does same.

I hope I'm wrong though.


To be fair here; all of Ubi's games are poorly optimized on most platforms... The AC games are terrible in this regard, same goes for Far Cry. And look at the ridiculous PC specs for AC: Unity (more or less recommending AMD's top GPU for decent performance).

True. But their last two Wii U ports, AC4 and Blacklist, were especially bad, falling short of even their Wii U launch title AC3 in performance.

It'll sell over 100k...after a price drop or two. Kudos Ubisoft! You must have balls of titanium tungsten alloy the size of medicine balls to charge full price for a game that's almost 6 months late to the party. Better get your back checked...



"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."

LOL. To give an analogy, Ubisoft is like the Big Three (Ford, GM, Chrystler) trying to sell left hand drive cars (Ubisosft's games) in Japan (Wii U). They (Ubisoft) should just give up and spare themselves any more embarassment.

Only way this will sell is if Ubi built a time machine so they could release this when people gave a ****.

I haven't tried AC4 on Wii U, but AC3 on PS3 was a choppy mess at times.

Both AC3 and 4 have performance issues on PS3, 360, and Wii U, AC4 Wii U is simply the worst of the lot.
