    Watch_Dogs was my first platinum on PS3. Everyone was shitting all over the game due to the PC port controversy, but I really enjoyed it. Huge city, different environment, actually good on-foot movement unlike in GTA games, and toooooooons of side stuff to do.

    And oh dear, all the hacking stuff was such fun. Yes it was all just one button, but everything was well implemented. The amount of personal details you could pull from phones was amazing. I kept doing it all the time and it wasn’t until near the end of the game that they started repeating.

    And the trademark unique Ubisoft multiplayer. Shame it didn’t have full-blown online mode, I can see myself getting lost in it.

    Yea great game. Didn’t deserve all the hate unrelated to its actual accomplishments.

    The DLC… Bad Blood I think? Was even better.

    I can’t emphasize enough how cool some of those VR side-missions were. Some would qualify as fun standalone indie games on their own.

      I really liked Watch_Dogs. And it is the only game in which the invading player thingy clicked for me. No other game ever pulled that off again. (the new Sniper elite came close though, but it messed up the frequency of it)

      Sadly the second game never clicked for me, so I didn’t tried Legions.

      Watch dogs was really good (although I really didn’t click with the player character, he was so morose). I wanted to like the second one but I got stuck on a level and abandoned it.
