Killer Showing
Game looked boring to me... open world yet totally scripted; I did like the concept though.
More excited for Zombi U.
Looks CRAZY! Ubisoft is going to be hard to top this year (at E3, I mean, I doubt that Watch Dogs is a 2012 game).
I definitely didn't see that coming. Watch Dogs is my game of show so far, and it'll probably stay that way. I didn't hear anything about this game before the show, did anyone else?

Alright opening, mindblowing middle, disappointing towards the end when it became a shooter, but still, I AM SO FUCKING PUMPED FOR THIS GAME IT IS UNREAL.
Give Watch_Dogs to me.
Indeed! Less shooting, more hacking and walking around enjoying the havoc your hacking has caused!
When I first saw that he was going to mess with the traffic light I was like "No fucking way, are you kidding me?"
Then he did and it was everything I ever wanted to see, that was fucking amazing.
Also, am I correct in thinking that when it zoomed to the other character that it was supposed to be the other guy playing that? and then it zoomed out even further and even more gamertags showed up?
Because that would be pretty awesome

Totally. The shooting was the worst part, and it actually really disappointed me. The rest gave off a strong Hitman vibe, which got me really excited. Still the best game shown from anyone though, by far.
I love it to bits, even the shooting was done well with loads of interactions and not just shooting.
I want more!
I honestly used to have dreams of a game like this... open world... action adventure... multiplayer(coop?), crime, city simulation... thing...
I don't even know. I was excited for Assassin's Creed. I was excited for Splinter Cell. And then this thing just came out of nowhere and gave me everything I wanted to see.
EDIT: And yeah, it's Chicago.
This new game, Dishonored, X-com EU, CD Projekts new thing. All of this super nerdy stuff is popping up out of nowhere and I love it.
While graphically it looked impressive, a lot of that stuff seemed very very scripted. Especially that car crash scenario trapping the dude you waned very neatly.
It will be interesting to see what are the innards and mechanics of the game, what are the actual limits and the possibilities (not just stuff people instantly imagine in their heads).
So far the only real gameplay has been a dude walking around, doing a few hack prompts on preset icons and some third person cover based shooting. Nothing much to amaze.
People are a tad ovehyped imo.
(still the best E3 thing i've seen so far and will probably remain so)
I love this. Being a chicagoan and an adult in need of games that tell important stories, I am deeply invested in this game now.

Yeah, I meant to say "cities", but my mind went to NYC after mentioning GTA. Also, that pretentious art exhibit seems right out of New York.
