[Ubi-Conf] Watch_Dogs Announced (Video/screens added) [Up: Xbox 360/PS3/PC]

Seeing the reaction to this game makes me believe people are going to be blown away with what next-gen has to offer.

This is most likely what early next gen games will look like. Except at a lower resolution and at 30 fps.

I'm just guessing, but I would assume that the PC version was running at 1080p and 60 fps.
 
I love that this game takes place in Chicago, at least partially. It'll be interesting to see how they replicate the atmosphere as well as the architecture. As a Chi native, I'm quite intrigued.
 
Good God just watched the trailer. The animations, the lighting...the rain effects...then the actual gameplay with hacking different systems. If it plays like Hitman, where you have an "objective" and can complete it in a sandboxy way altering different systems.....

I am super, super hyped for this game. Wow. Blew me away.
 
Because they're not allowed to say it's being developed for consoles that haven't officially been announced.

Like others are saying, a high end PC could run this game. The console versions will be shown, and they're not going to be next gen.

Announcing a game for consoles that likely won't be out until the end of next year is pointless, PLUS it's been in dev for 2 years. You honestly think they sent out dev kits 2 years ago?
 
Wow, I actually missed the part where he took the car.

Who says its coming to pc? It could be running on a high end dev pc.

Ubisoft does. It's listed as one of the release platforms.
 
Considering noone makes PC their lead platform, and PC ends up looking marginally better I'm going to say that the game is being made for Next Gen platforms which is the version they showed us and they will do the standard cross generation port most publishers do as the new generation comes around.
 
There's literally no way this is coming out this generation. Not just visually - the timing of the announcement (and the lack of anything even close to a release date. Or even window.) means we will not see this on store shelves until late 2013 at the latest. The fact it was being played on PC suggests it may still be in development, shit - 2014 might be a more fair estimate.

Would you release a massive new 360 game on the precipice of a new console?
NO.
This is next gen.
 
If you go back and watch the video, the woman dies when the 3rd thug opens fire with his mac-10, spraying towards the player after you bullet time the first two. It's then you see the blood spray on the windshield, hear the impact and the guy screaming 'no, no'. The windshield is clean and intact before the 3rd guy opens fire.
You dont get blood on a windshield from a 35mph car crash

Still, you caused the crash that landed the woman in that situation and ended up being shot, proceeding to then pull out the man (probably her husband) and tell him to get on his way.

Though I wouldn't consider the protagonist to be a douchebag because of it. He's just doing his "job" and if anything probably saved the man as well.
 
I thought the stage demo went on for a little too long, but otherwise it was a good presentation. Very interesting concept and I'm excited to see where it leads.
 
I wonder what they will have to sacrifice to get it running on 360/PS3. I don't think my 6core could run this game. I only have an Radeon HD 5770. :P

Ah, I didn't notice that shooting part. Now I feel all better about the MC.
 
Hmmm. Looks too good to be current gen.. Open world sandbox games tend to not carry that level of fidelity..

Either that, or Wii U really is a powerful machine. Even for PC, that looks stunning.
 
I know some people probably think it would have been more interesting without the shooting, but I've seen in there enough to excite me.

I'm guessing it will be both a current and next gen game. The next gen versions will probably line up with the PC performance wise.
 
That fucking coat! Seriously, more trenchcoats please. Only reason I really want the Samaritan demo to be made into a proper game.
 
Wow that looked amazing. The part in which it turns into a cover TPS isn't really exciting but everything else looked crazy good.

Probably tied with Dishonored gameplay as the best thing out of E3 for me so far.
 
lol c'mon son, it looked nice but it wasn't exactly an insane tech demo.

Sorry but I know what's possible and what not... this is definitely not possible on current gen consoles. I know it's pretty much the end of the console cycle but I very much doubt that they squeezed another 100% out of them... NO WAY!

And even if, then they would introduce this ground breaking new engine with some tech demos...


I suspect they're just listing those platforms for now, like placeholders. Eventually the 360 and PS3 listings will be replaced by the next consoles when they are officially announced.

Spot on! I think that too!
 
Who wants to bet it will be "mysteriously" moved to next gen consoles/pc by next year E3.

I'm conflicted about it moving. I want it to be next-gen so we can have the same awesome graphics as the demo, but then I gotta buy a PS4/720 on launch which I hate doing.
