The general theme is very well realised, with a lot to say about the implications of the "big data" society.

    If you go into this expecting something just like GTA, you may be a little disappointed. But this isn't GTA, it's its own beast, and an exceptionally good one. Turn your brain on, and you'll be rewarded.    … Expand

Its a truly sad example of 'all or nothing', because quite often, if the so-called 'failure' is approached objectively, then its merits can be appreciated, and a true measure of what is on offer can be gained.

    Watchdogs on PS3 does not earn any kudos at all within the first hour. A tedious and murky introduction, coupled with lackluster graphics (I'll come back to that) and a horrid nigh-on minute-long reload of the mission if you fail, instantly repel. Then, its into the main game, and alarm bells rung extremely loudly: its traditional 'sandbox' fare, with a campaign, and offset 'extra' missions (for seeming good value), and a few quirks here and there. It feels immediately like a clunky ill-fit of parts, trying desperately to be the next Assassin's Creed, but without the innovation, or the involvement so crucially needed.

    Then, it all changes....... and fast!! The 'hacking' element kicks-in, and the whole emphasis of the game changes rather fast. What had initially seemed a gimmick, suddenly plays a heavy part of the game. It may seem very fiddly initially, but when you have a grasp of the concept, suddenly you're dealing with a puzzle game effectively within the confines of the game world, and its one that when you receive the pay-off, is massively satisfying. Coupled with the fact that once you understand the nature of the game, and that it can also affect that initially rather mundane world played-in much more than you'd expect, this suddenly adds much depth to the game - truly, if you invest the time (3 hours roughly) then you will be sucked-in. The controls on the cars is clunky as well, but then there are delights, such as riding the motorbikes in the game. I guarantee, that once you ride one bike in the game at high speed, then you may well never touch another car again (I haven't so far!!).

    The graphics will be an instant turn-off for many, and its true that it does all look a bit 'half-baked': the frame-rate can jitter at times, the cars don't have a proper damage and degradation engine (crash a car into a wall at high speed and it only has minor damage), there's clipping and texture collision issues, pop-in and texture fill-in when driving, and tearing as well - but if it detracts, then it never truly kills the gameplay (by the way - I played this in 1080P, so if you have different results, please let me know!!). Sound is the usual: really good voice-acting, coupled with okay effects, and a soundtrack that sadly is more filler than killer.

    As a last point though, I'd like to add about some of the idiotic presentation options that have been put-in - reloading after a failed mission feels like a hike, and coupled with the fact that if you don't want to try again you have to pause and quit the mission, feels utterly stupid - why not just give the option to quit or retry straight-off? I mention this, because this baffling method of interaction runs throughout the game, and if you aren't aware, it can mean often having to restart a mission and regaining lost ground - and its really annoying.

    I'm playing Watch Dogs without the hype (I wasn't bought by it, I needed a diversion from my endless Dark Souls 2 obsession!!), and I'm enjoying it greatly. And with that, I hope that Ubisoft aren't put-off from a bad reception otherwise, and advance this game into what could be a stellar series - after all, Assassin's Creed and Hitman had suitably lukewarm receptions upon their introductions, and look where they are now.

    Don't expect the universe from Watch Dogs, just expect a lot of fun, and satisfying depth for such a game, and you'll be surprized    … Expand

I have nothing bad to say about shooting, aiming, hacking mechanics or other game mechanics. One last thing to say is, that Chicago in Watch_Dogs doesn't feel like the real one. It isn't so big, but it is alive. There are lots of things to do after ending the main story. You can also play online and grief other peoples Chicagos all over and along.

To my surprise I saw how many negative reviews it got and left me wondering why. But then I noticed something about the negative reviews, it seems that 3 out of 4 of the reviews start off with something like "Not as good as it was made out to be/ over hyped etc. etc." But that's just it, nobody is considering what this game actually is, they are comparing it to what they wanted, when they should be analyzing the game itself.

    Honestly I loved this game, sure I can admit it was over hyped, but even though it wasn't what I expected it still made for a great game with and a lot of fun. Many people spoke of the graphics but I don't think you should be turned off. Yes, they aren't a great breakthrough for graphics but if you really cared that much about graphics you would go buy it on a PS4 or PC, and it's not like they are horrible and unbearable, they were just standard.

    The gameplay is somewhat generic, hacking features aside, but who doesn't love a generic open world city to explore? I found a lot of the hacking to be a lot of fun being able to change traffic lights, raise bridges, make things explode and even disabling enemy helicopters at the press of a button. I often hear people talk about the controls being a bit difficult, but after a few levels they become much easier to use, it's just a matter of getting used to it and honestly I liked the controls once I did get used to it.

    The story was good. Nothing too remarkable, no spoilers but it was basically you did something bad to me, I want revenge, few main enemies appear before the big ending, there was a few very minor plot twists in it, nothing that's going to leave you in shock and awe. But despite that by the end of the game it did make me feel empathetic to the protagonist and at some points managed to make me genuinely feel bad for the character.

    As for performance issues, I don't really understand what people are saying? I had almost no performance issues at all when I played through it, I did notice one part when I was saving that it went a bit jumpy but it only lasted a few seconds, apart from that it was all good.

    As a bit of a sum up. Yes, it is over hyped. Yes, the graphics aren't ridiculously fantastic. No, it was not in any way a good game. I have a had a genuinely fun and exciting experience with this game and I will continue to play it until it stops being so. The game play is good, I love the side missions and I love the stealth and combat options. There is truly nothing wrong with this game and I do not think you should not buy it because of these reviews, because the game is truly a great game, perhaps not a classic, but certainly not one that will be forgotten.    … Expand

Occasionally the framerate will drop momentarily when there's a lot of spawning going on in free roam but it's not surprising considering how ambitiously active the environment is for a last-gen console. (This is regarding the digital download version.) There are also Ubisoft server hiccups, but that is hardly a new phenomenon.    … Expand

    Not sure what everyone is crapping on about. This game is amazing. For the PS3, I think the graphics are great.. Not much difference in comparison to the next-gen versions of the game at all. A lot of fun, missions are awesome, long story, good characters and great open-world. Not sure why everyone is complaining, maybe because the game was so hyped up but I loved it.

    I personally don't see why people gave this game such a bad rating. The story wasn't amazing but still good. The hacking made it fun. The best part was the digital trips. As far a I could see there was some lag but nothing that would ruin the game. The only reason why didn't give the game 10/10 becouse the driving isn't all all that great. It's not Better then Gta 5 but still a fun game

    I'm one of the few people who seem to have liked what Watch Dogs had to offer. It had very smart ideas even if some things weren't the way they could've been. I personally enjoyed the main story and the characters. I never came across any technical issues that were enough for me to quit. If you have never played this game but keep your expectations low, you will enjoy this game. It's GTAI'm one of the few people who seem to have liked what Watch Dogs had to offer.

    Great game, gets fun when u get your way around the hacking system and got some enjoyable puzzles, not too hard, but not too handhelding either. Online is alot of fun, you can do stuff like going into other players games as civilians trying to hack them for an amount of secons without them detecting and killing you. theres also stuff like racing ect. ai isnt bad, enemies are good atGreat game, gets fun when u get your way around the hacking system and got some enjoyable puzzles, not too hard, but not too handhelding either.

    Car chases aside, Watch Dogs would be a great and memorable open-world action game if not for persistent performance problems.

    The Watch_Dogs experience on PS3 is good but it does not match our expectations from a technical perspective. The definitive version is definitively on Next Gen platforms.
