The question is how many minutes it will take between the game being released and a video going up on YouTube of Aiden Pierce rickrolling Chicago.

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.

Can you imagine how much it would loving suck to go through a bad breakup with Aiden Pierce? He'd hack your Facebook, post nude pics of you on public billboards, call the cops on you for fake stuff, cancel all your credit cards, get drunk one night and broadcast a tear-filled rant about your time together over a shopping mall's PA system...

So he's a Redditor?

I am going to throw down my money so hard on this game if it at least has a mod to make Aiden's character model pudgy (or outright obese if clipping issues could be avoided), spotty and unshaven while wearing an undersized fedora along with his douchey trenchcoat. Double points if it also pitches down his voice, Doughnut Drake style.

With online multiplayer and Uplay that might be a bit of an issue. They don't like people modding the game like that. Still I don't see why you couldn't do it in singleplayer if a few checks were broken.

e: Thinking a bit more it'd be hilarious how the cloth physics & pocket animations handle that.

Whoa, BIG!

I'd rather go the other way. I'd make Aiden skinny and fey-ish looking, and try to deemphasize gunplay as much as possible. Maybe give all the bad guys those gun-ID ring things so I can jam them with a touch of the smartphone.

13/05/28 - Watch_Dogs - 61 Highlights From 30 Minutes Of Gameplay [Lots of small details noted here]

This one is hilarious, it's literally just a line by line description of the gameplay demo that every other media outlet saw.

Except it's filled with totally unbiased lines like:

quote:

55. Police are everywhere, converging on the gun shop. Aiden grabs a car and starts racing through the streets. It’s dusk now, and it’s staring to rain. The mist from the road and in the air realistically reflects and diffuses the car’s bright headlights in such astounding detail that we can’t help but marvel at the power of next-gen gaming.

It's not unprecedented to have this built-in; I think there's a fat mode in the Uncharted games.

Hence my reference to Doughnut Drake, the best unlockable ever conceived by any developer in the history of video games.

That was Naughty Dog, though. I don't think Ubisoft have included many fun unlockable character models anything like that in their past games and I can't see them doing it here. I still hold some fool's hope for being able to waddle around Chicago as Aiden the Neckbeard, though.

I was looking up differences on the PS3 vs PS4 version, and I found this. People are arguing over if it's a PS4 version or not, but the 2012 E3 trailer does look better. What's up with that? I hope it wasn't just a tech demo, and that the PS4 version does look like that.

Anyway. This game has potential. I don't think I've seen a game where you could truly interface with an abnormal number of things like this one does, and I also approve of any game that makes faceless people (including enemies) a little less faceless.

If you can find an E3 game announcement trailer for a game that actually looks like how the game ends up looking then you win some sort of prize.

I guess I'll be buying the game a second time then, first for PS4 then again for PC for mods, texture packs, and some sweet rear end sweetFX shader mods.

Hmm, with GT6 and GTA5 coming out for the PS3 only, if I get Watch Dogs for the PS3 that'll give the PS3 some more life.

I could always buy the game 3 times :downs:

[edit] then a 4th time in a steam sale.

This form of seamless MP is just genius and I can't wait to mess around with it. It just happens. There's no way to jump around on it, you appear as someone else in another player's world while you're still Aiden Pearce.

We're going to see a lot more of this on this generation, and it excites me. This game can't come soon enough.
