Product reviewsWatch Dogs (Sony PlayStation 4, 2014)

Watch Dogs PS4 Game

My Son has all three games, I have Watch Dogs 2 & Watch Dogs Legion...both was great so I had to get the first Watch Dogs to complete the sets. The graphics may be not a great as the other two, but it has a good story & it's still a great game to add to my collection...I brought it previous own in like new condition at a nice price.Read full review...

$10.00 Purchase - and for Good Reason

Watch Dogs is a game in which you hack your way to supremacy; but, in doing so, you will have to rinse & repeat, rinse & repeat - hack this camera to hack that camera to hack that other camera to hack that console to open that door to get to that audio log (btw that audio log is only 1 of 100). The side quest missions are so bland and moldy that, after you've done just 3 of the same mission, you'll want to go Bleach your esophagus; because, at least then, you'll be able to tell someone something interesting about your day.

The game handles decently, the animation is fluid and responds nicely in the heat of the moment... as long as you aren't driving. The driving controls are as sluggish as a snake on ice, and the variety of vehicular missions/tasks only exacerbates the irritation created by another 90mph turn into a corner store.

The equipment in game is useful, that is, if you can access the menu, select the item required, close the menu, and activate said item before you're either discovered by police or say.. brutally murdered?

Skills, in classic Ubisoft fashion, are tiered from uselessness to usefulness to batshit endgame obliteration. Except, oh right, to access ANY high level skills, you must open up your SINGLE PLAYER CAMPAIGN to the entire Watchdogs universe's worth of players, risking being invaded, hacked, or otherwise trolled into submission.

The online multiplayer is literally just another Ubisoft vomit party of randomly killing people, OR hacking into another player's game and hacking this camera to hack that camera to hack that other camera to hack that console to open that door to get to that audio log (btw that audio log is only 2 of 100).

I haggled the purchase of this free-to-ship game from $12 to $10, and I quickly understand why it was such a low price to begin with.

LITERALLY the only thing i truly enjoyed about Watchdogs: Spidertank. If Ubisoft made a full length game with the mechanized mayhem of the Spidertank minigame, I'd happily lay down a respectable $40-$60 to play it.

Otherwise, I can only hope Watchdogs 2 has a bit more in-depth uniqueness/multiplayer than its predecessor.

A semi-enjoyable experience that fell short with no replayability..

I bought this item because I was starting my PS4 library. Since the PS4 had just launched and is in its first year of launch, it has very little. There wasn't much thought into this buy other than it's another game.

Gameplay was alright, there isn't much to it other than: Point. Hack. Shoot. Drive. Repeat.

The missions aren't much other than: Go here. Do this / Kill this person. Not much variety.

Character design is lame as Ubisoft can't even model a boob. The facial animations are flat and stiff 80% of the time.

Story? What story? This was probably the most boring story of revenge ever. By the time I was halfway through the game, I totally forgot what it was I was doing.. OH. WAIT. I can't forget because the protagonist would repeat the same damn thing over and over again in he "20 packs of cigs a day" anti-hero voice. Aiden is a cardboard person with a emotional crisis of "Is this who I am?" I enjoyed Jordy / T-Bone and Clara more than him because they at least knew who they were instead of bouncing back between "I'm a good person, I don't kill people." to "I must kill people because they deserve to be punished. I am the vigilante."

Overall, if you're wanting a mediocre experience that you'll probably make fun of with your girlfriend / boyfriend / friends, go for it. It's not THAT bad, but then again it's not very good. Nice try Ubisoft, but learn how to model a boob for once.

5/10.Read full review...

Ah...I thought the game has Chinese Language, but it's not. Finally this is a good card.

awesome on playstation 4

All it takes is the swipe of a finger. We connect with friends. We buy the latest gadgets and gear. We find out what’s happening in the world. But with that same simple swipe, we cast an increasingly expansive shadow. With each connection, we leave a digital trail that tracks our every move and milestone, our every like and dislike. And it’s not just people. Today, all major cities are networked. Urban infrastructures are monitored and controlled by complex operating systems.

In Watch_Dogs, this system is called the Central Operating System (ctOS) and it controls almost every piece of the city’s technology and holds key information on all of the city’s residents.

You play as Aiden Pearce, a brilliant hacker and former thug, whose criminal past led to a violent family tragedy. Now on the hunt for those who hurt your family, you'll be able to monitor and hack all who surround you by manipulating everything connected to the city’s network. Access omnipresent security cameras, download personal information to locate a target, control traffic lights and public transportation to stop the enemy, and more.

Use the city of Chicago as your ultimate weapon and exact your own style of revenge.Read full review...

A bit slow but great game

I like unchartered and assasin’s creed as my favorites. This is slower than those games but very fun to play
