I'm thinking PC is the platform of choice for me on this one. I've also seen hints that the game may take place in the same fictional universe as Assassin's Creed. There are also so many of these 'open-city' games lately, from Grand Theft Auto to Saint's Row to Infamous to Sleeping Dogs, that it's getting harder and harder to feel the hype.īut the quasi-cyber-punk of Watch Dogs has potential, and I'm definitely curious to see if this game can live up to all the anticipation. Sometimes the open nature of the world prevents the narrative from taking shape, or kills the pacing. Sometimes there's lots to do, but it all feels the same. I'm generally pretty critical when it comes to open-world games. But there's lots of little things about it that seem very cool, including a unique multiplayer system that involves hacking other players (and trying to avoid being hacked) as well as racing and a 'free-roam' co-op mode. I'm not really sure what to expect just yet, at least from the game as a whole.

It's a near-future, open-world hacking game set in Chicago. Watch Dogs is the big new IP from Ubisoft. Platform: PC, PS3, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS4 And I'll take single-player only over multi-player only any day of the week (ahem, Titanfall.)Īnd there's even a stealth option, making this the best-looking game from Bethesda since Dishonored. So there's a definite old-school feel going on here, in this single-player only game. And yes, mech Nazis just sounds awesome, especially since they have mech-dogs as well.īetter still, along with health packs, you can carry lots of guns (not limited to just two or three as so many games are these days) some of which you can dual-wield. As always, you play as William 'B.J.' Blazkowicz in an attempt to defeat the newly mechanized Nazi threat. Set in an alternate 1960's in which the Third Reich has won WWII. And it's great to see that the game doesn't have a replenishing life meter-like the good old days, you have to replenish your health with magical first aid kits. That I'm even looking forward to a first-person shooter at all is a big deal as far as I'm concerned.

U at number 94 and the more recent Super Mario 3D World at number 97.Īs recently revealed the best-selling console of 2013 in the UK was the 3DS, although you wouldn’t necessarily guess to look at the software chart. There are two Wii U games in the chart: 2012’s New Super Mario Bros. The highest ranking PlayStation 4 exclusive is Killzone: Shadow Fall at number 17, with Forza Motorsport 5 the best-selling Xbox One exclusive at number 43. The worst reviewed game to find itself in the upper reaches of the chart is undoubtedly Aliens: Colonial Marines, which despite almost everyone agreeing is awful managed to get as high as number 26 (although to be fair it was released early in the year and has been heavily discounted for most of it).
