E3 2013: Over Seven Minutes of Watch_Dogs Gameplay
Is this different then what they showed on stage? Didnt he miss the first shot at the police guys leg on stage?
@the_laughing_man: Yeah, this looks like a different play through. It is kind of disheartening that they used the exact same tactics in this playthrough as they did last night, because during the Sony conference they claimed there are so many different approaches to everything...

DIdnt the live demo freak out?
@the_laughing_man: Yeah, on the stage show one of the shots definitly missed.
I'm hoping it's not as 'open world' as these previews are making it look. I've had my fill with all of these big open world games.
@fernanthonies: Your joking? I hope its so open world I can walk all the way to your house in the game world, and pop out of your usb slot, sit down for a cuppa. Then tell you how good open worlds are, go back into the computer, hack some lights/billboards/ATM's, save some helpless civilians, run a long hot bath and think about how much I love open world games.

I agree. The most interesting thing I've seen so far has been that Republique-looking segment where he's guiding T-Bone. I can do without more driving around, shooting, and open-world filler quests (like stopping muggings).

I don't blame them though, screwing up the demo would be pretty embarrassing. Better to stick to the plan.
A friend of mine's brother is a Cook County patrolman, and he used to crew the Sherriff's Office helicopter as its infrared camera operator. So I'm getting a little extra enjoyment out of imagining him as the incompetent fucker up there with the floodlight...
Also, the subtitles say "Mad Mile"... Surely they mean "Mag Mile"? As in magnificent? I hope those aren't in-game subtitles, because that'd be kind of embarrassing.
lol. I think they messed up the subtitles at 3:30.
"A prototype ship I ain't never seen!"
I'm pretty sure he didn't say ship.
6:10: Ok....that's actually a damn cool touch for people playing on tablets. The trolling potential is just too good to pass up.
I can crash the power grid to a major US city at the push of a button. That's a bit cooler than just screwing with CCTV or the subway system. .Wouldn't that basically book you a one way trip to GITMO or ADX Florence if the cops actually got a hold of you? Kevin Mitnick did almost five years in solitary just for just accessing computer systems, let alone actual cyberattacks.
It's really damn cool to see actual environment manipulation in an open-world game like this. Other games like GTA or even Assassin's Creed...it's either kill everyone on screen or cower in someone's garden until the heat gets bored and leaves. Any game that rewards adaptability instead of just run-and-gun is worth my time.
This and The Division look so good I almost have trouble believing they're real. It's not just the graphics, the production values on these games are through the roof.

And just think, at least this is still handicapped because they also are developing it for current-gen systems. Just wait until next-gen exclusives are being made and people really coax the most power out of the hardware.
It seems they watched the first few minutes of Drive
Now that you mention it, it does remind me of Drive in the beginning. All we are missing now is Ryan Gosling.
Man I wish this game was not so action based as it seems to be going... I was all in at first... I think I'm out now. :( Sad day for me. Oh but daaaaaaaaamn it looks nice.
They probably changed the name of the districts for legal reasons. The city probably won't be called "Chicago" in the game either.
@darson: Serious question: why? It doesn't seem to have any bearing on the gameplay unless you want it to. With the right ideas, it could make for some really neat immersion away from your console.

It just looks like another gimmick wagon like motion controls that everyone is hopping onto until we forget about it and move on to some other new silly technology.
