Watch Dogs Review

Have finished the main missions and a lot of the side stuff in Watch Dogs.  About 77% done so think it is time for a review.  Have enjoyed playing this game.  There is lots to look and do.  It was fun to unlock and upgrade all the skills.  If fact I reached the max level and all skill unlocked about two missions into act two.  There are five acts in all but would say there are truly only four because the last one on contains one missions.  There are a few things that were great an others that were just ok.  Parts of the story were inconsistent.  Same with the way the characters interact with each other is a bit inconsistent as well. Some of the hacking mini games can be frustrating.  But don’t let those small things take way from this must play games.  Then there is the online play.  Not really into that.  But some times you have to play a bit of it.  Even now again someone will hack into your game.  Were you have to find and kill them before the get all the way in.  Some times you can stop this from even happing but some times it happens any way.  Think it has happened to me about six times and was only able to get the other person three times.

This is another awesome open world game with RPG elements.  The games is beautiful to look at and run around in.   There is lots to do and stuff to unlock.  It is well worth the money because there is many, many hours of gameplay.

Watch Dogs 1.03 Patch

There is a new patch out on all systems for Watch Dogs.  This patch fixes all kinds of different things which you can read > here.  There is fixes for multiplayer which are nice but not really into the multiplayer.  Played a few rounds of the racing but that was a bit glitchey.  The big thing for me is replay options.  Just like they did in Far Cry 3.  Once you finish the main storyline and provided you did all the Gang Hideouts and Convoy Missions.  You will be able to reset these so you can play them again.  All so like in Far Cry 3 the hideouts are super fun to take out.  I am know were near finished this game.  On mission three in act 2.  How ever I am maxed out at level 50 and have all but one skill option left to get.  Having a blast playing this game.  If you are still on the fence.  This game is well worth your money.

Watch Dogs

Have owned my PlayStation 4 and a copy of Watch Dogs for little over a month now.  Not sure why any hours I have played.  Wish there was stats screen or something to show you like most other games have.  Going to guess around 20 to 30 hours (may be more).  Have enjoyed every minute of it.  It is so good.  What makes it awesome is there is so much to look at and do.  Like most games now a days there is some rpg elements.  Have reached level 27 out of 50 and am still on the first Act of the game.  Only have a small few problems.  Some of the hacking (were you have to move little switches with a countdown clock) can be annoying.  It takes lots of re-tries to get some of them and gave up on others.  The other small problem is that I fail each mission/side mission at lest once, sometimes more. For a new IP this game is pretty sweet.  Am sure they will be a second one.  Which should be bigger and better.  If you are holding out on getting Watch Dogs, don’t.  This is a must own.

Watch Dogs

The first game I picked up for my new PlayStation 4 is Watch Dogs.  Have been waiting a long time to try this game out.  Heard and read that is its pretty cool.  Mind you I didn’t read or watch a lot of things about this game because didn’t what see any spoilers.  Like the PS3 the PS4 has to install so much information on the hard drive.  When I looked at the back of the box it said, “21 GB minimum”.    That seems like a lot.  The PS4 does come with a 500 GB hard drive but only can use 400 of that.

Have only played the first few main missions so far.  Keep getting distracted by all the extra things you can go.  Like a lot of Ubisoft open world games there is all kinds of things to look at and side missions to do.  All so like a lot of new games there is an upgrading system as well.  You can upgrade you hacking, driving, shooting and something else stats.  Doing side missions all so help you get the upgrades.  The main hook of the game is hacking into different systems to help you get around the city.  Simple things like changing the traffic lights to getting someone’s ATM info or may be blowing up a steam pipe underground.  Found out that last one the hard way.  Was trying to hacking to someone’s phone as the walked by but I missed and hacked into the steam pipe.  Which sent me flying and killed me.  Was pretty fun.  Enjoying the game a lot so far.  Even after only playing a little bit, have to say it is a must buy.
