I know a few people around here where looking forward to this one including me last year and according to Sony's store page for Watch Dogs the release date is June 30th. No word from Ubisoft yet though. https://store.sonyentertainmentnetw...dogs/cid=UP0001-NPUB31254_00-WATCHDOGSFULLGAM Edit: Ubisoft announced the release for May 27th
JUNE?! God damnit. Oh well, that gives me more time to decide whether to get this for my PS4 or PC. Aaaaand, it gives me some time to play all the other fuckload of games coming out in March and April. >_>
Well, man, 30th of June... It's postponed again ! Considering that their last game, thief, sucked ass, i hope that they will do something great with watchdogs or it'll be the beginning of the end for Montreal gaming studios...
Thief (2014) was done by Eidos Montreal, Watch Dogs is done by Ubisoft Montreal. Two different studios. :>
Yeah but they have a huge staff rotation between each other. Eidos / Square Montreal and UBI Montreal are pretty much like Desjardins and Banque Nationale... I hope UBI delivers tho... Cuz the fact that thief sucked ass was quite a big blow for the business here (even tho it's more or less the same folks that did deus ex). I dun want MTL to be like many places in the U.S where the videogames industry died.
I don't personally get why Thief has gotten so much heat. I'm quite enjoying it, but then again, I preordered it at 70% off, so it's cheap entertainment. I don't know exactly what to think about Ubisoft anymore. On one hand they've put out some fun and exciting games, but on the other, they've managed to royally fuck up some games, and their DRM is horrible (or used to be). I was extremely pleasantly surprised by the recent AC game, and that's after having sworn off the franchise because of the abomination to AC3.
Yeah the last AC is quite good, even if i played it (to my shame) only a few hours. They totally ditched their DRM no ? If they could get rid of Uplay it'd be even better.
