Watch Dogs

Sure this game was over-hyped and it's far from perfect, but it is undeniably fun. The hacking is something new and interesting. Chicago is a great setting and the soundtrack kicks ass! I have no idea why nobody likes Aiden, I found him quite intriguing, the whole renegade without fear vibe is always fascinating. The stealth sections were decent and the hacking puzzles were adequately challenging, including for the collectibles. The only downside are the high speed car chases that were infuriating and are exactly the reason I stay clear of GTA games. The game didn't need such frustrations to weigh it down. All in all a great game with some minor flaws, but hardly anything that should keep you from trying it out.

Decent enough story largely great gameplay think the handling when driving at speed could be a little more manageable but other than that had a great time playing it.

1. I want to begin with all the fuss that's on the web: This game got so popular before it even launched that people started already hating the game they haven't played.

2. If you are average player who likes to button smash every stage trough game - this game isn't for you. Go get Wolfenstein or Serious Sam.

3. If you are looking for a good story, like maybe: Max Payne - This game isn't for you. Story isn't offering anything new. The story is probably the most boring part of the game. So cheesy.

4. If you like to figure out tactics, if you like to learn the scene before entering it, if you can wait for opponents, plan your moves in time - This game is for you. I was amazed by the filling of hanging around outside by the bench, while I control cameras inside the building and knocking out my enemies that have no idea what hit them.

Anyone, who enjoyed Splinter Cell - will probably enjoy this game. In bonus, Watch dogs offers you a weaker character (Aiden Pearce), compared to Splinter Cells Sam Fisher, who can kill 3 guys in a momentum and take out forth with a bare hands.

Your main weapon is your phone. You must create distractions for enemy's to pass by them, or take them out one by one. Also, you can lure them into traps, Jam their communication systems so they get a headache from buzz in ears and etc. Overall, game is very creative.

Also, it is hard. It's really hard just to shoot off your enemies (I was playing it on hard mode). You are not a Stallone, or Terminator, you are just a normal guy. But sometimes shooting is the only option and using your phone to hack nearby systems that act in your advantage - is the key for ultimate fun.

As a open world game, Watch Dogs offers many side missions - finding murderers, suspects, potential criminals, codes hidden around Chicago and many more.

All in all, I enjoyed this game very much. I haven't played anything like that. This was really new.

8/10 because story is boring, but gameplay does it's job very well.

I haven't spoken about graphics because my PC could only run it smoothly on low preferences. But real gamer doesn't mind for graphics. To me, it was all about gameplay.

At first I thought this game wasn't that good since all I heard about it was that it failed alot of people on launch day but now that I've tried it, I really think that this game deserved better as its story is so much better than many games these days though the game was made in 2014.

I don't really play through any story games since GOW2018 but I think this game has revived my instinct.coz it really feels like a movie and the dialogues are very rich not just like any story games

The game play is 100% ahead of its time,specially the running mechanics and the close range combat even if it wass ranged weapons ir just melee,one.

This game is pegi 18 although I don't see many disturbing scenes,would definitely recommend it to people who love action games and pay attention to details.

Everything about this game is so perfect. The graphics, story line, open world, and diversity of life in the bustling beautiful Chicago are a perfect score for me, but unfortunately.. There are a few large flaws.

Lets start by addressing the people. Diversity? Yes. Realistic..? Not really. If you were to pull into a random parking lot at a restaurant filled with other cars, then pull back out at average speed and casually pause at the entrance to make you're leave.. the people would scream and shout dumb things you're way as if you'd shot towards them like a speeding bullet.

But the worst, most colossal problem?? The police. Real police don't try to kill you over a simple fender bender, especially if it was a hit-and-run.. you not being the fleeing suspect or the cause of the crash. The cop that saw the minor accident literally called for backup, and before I knew it helicopters were swarming the skies. No, 'put you're hands in the air' at least??!

Even though this particular flaw is huge, the game was still one of the best I have ever played. And so far, it continues to impress and entertain long after the main missions are through.
