Watch Dogs Officially Makes a Connection with PS4 on 27th May

Good trailer, graphical detail doesn't look anywhere near as refined as it did in the original reveal trailer, though, which is expected but still disappointing.

Nevertheless... cautiously optimistic.

Looks good, not to the level of the reveal but I guess going cross he. Hampered stuff.

So it was May as I predict .
Hopefully Ubisoft is fast to ship my Descec Edition

All i want to know is 'Anne Robinson' in the game...

I've actually just been looking at the original reveal and this new trailer, you can only compare the first few seconds as the original trailer then goes into actual gameplay. It's also slightly been changed the new trailer which i think looks better than the original, apart from that there is no actual gameplay on this new trailer to compare.

But looking forwards to it.

Weird I never held much interest in this game, but somehow, this changed here, looks like it has an actual story and I dig good stories. Let's wait for the reviews and as soon as I know its not majorly flawed in some aspect I'll go download this!

What happened to the graphics? Is this the ps3 version or what?

I dont see the trailer. Must play it myself, day one for sure

I just hope the engine can remember off-screen cars (GTA5 AHEM!) and is equally intuitive/playable on foot as behind the wheel. I'm excited to play with Ubi's Driver physics and see how that translates to shooting. And wait, there's a plot??

Looking forward to it but still wonder what's better in the PS4 version than the PS3 version if anything

@get2sammyb it is disappointing if it is...

I have the Wii U version pre ordered however I am considering switching to the ps3 version.

Looks like a PS3 game. Lazy cross gen!

@get2sammyb i went back and looked at some early gameplay demos and I still think the game has some great cityscapes. This trailer looks rough and inconsistant. I am hoping this trailer was just an unfortunate culmination of some bad close ups(character models look very smooth, though).

Love the drastic step back in graphics.

Here is what I don't get that trailer is pre-rendered cutscenes made into a trailer? Yes/No, the footage from months back is not pre-rendered cutscenes it's actual gameplay footage apart from the few seconds intro. My question is have thay released actual gameplay footage today with that trailer? if not how can we tell if the actual gameplay footage is a step back when all we've seen is a pre-rendered trailer?

Ubisoft said from now to release thay will be releasing gameplay footage.

Story seems awesome! Gameplay looks great! I'm definitely into stories about hacking & conspiracies. Although graphics are held back b/c of last-gen the story, sandbox setting, & gameplay should make up for it...hopefully. But am gonna pre-order b/c this has been one of the major games I've been eager to play this year on PS4!

Also, if they polished up the game, how come some gameplay I've seen has been a step up from what I saw?? O.o

Still plan to pick the game up because there is still potential. My expectations are much lower than they were originally though.

Why do I get the feeling this game is going to be poor?

@Dodoo

Because Ubisoft really hasn't given a reason to think otherwise. I want it to be good but have to be honest, I'm still expecting to be disappointed.

Watch Dogs PS4 1080p-30fps, XboxOne 960p-30fps.

@banacheck

Lets hope it's a stable framerate. Tomb Raider had some issues although nothing terrible or game-breaking. Thief is pretty bad at times. I don't really blame the hardware though. Especially in the case of Thief, you have a developer working on too many different formats and it's got to be tough trying to get used to new hardware while working with a bunch of other systems as well. That's a reason I'm much more excited for games like The Witcher 3 and Batman: Arkham Knight than pretty much anything else this year. These games are focusing solely on the new consoles and PC.

@Gamer83 "I want it to be good but have to be honest, I'm still expecting to be disappointed."

Exactly how I feel also.

Yesterday's "downgraded" footage isn't helping me to think otherwise that's for sure...

@Gamer83
apparently Thief had a troubled development what makes this rumour seem more true, is one week after release thay let go of 27 dev's from Eidos Montreal.

"Yes it is true, we've let 27 people go today. Unfortunately it's something that every major studio has to do sometimes in order to ensure you have the right set up for current and future projects," a representative for Square Enix said. "It's never a nice thing to do but we are genuinely trying to offer as much support as much as we can."

I agree I'm looking forwards to the true next gen games more, but I want to see how Watch Dogs turns out.

@banacheck

I'm really hoping they show something to make me look past the graphics. I'm not a 'graphics whore' but they do matter quite a bit imo and it's unacceptable for this game to look as poor as it does especially when it was delayed six months. Clearly everybody who said it was so that the game wouldn't detract from AC IV (and as a bonus get further outside the GTA V window) were correct. There can't be a delay then when the game is re-revealed have it look like a low-end PS3 release. If I were on the dev team, I'd have been embarrassed to put that video out.

The best thing about that new trailer is the music.

Your talking at that GIF flying around the internet? comparing 2012 E3 footage with apparently PS4 2014, the apparently PS4 version was not released by Ubisoft.That's from a Gamestop preview, also there preview does not tell people the console version (This is the PS4 version). Or what build it was wether it was the latest build or not, all thay say in there whole preview is Daulshock4 in hand giving the impression its the PS4. Also early-on this week some of the media have played the PS4 version of Watch Dogs, and what thay are saying in there preview's about Watch Dogs is different from that GIF. Also these websites state in there previews thay are playing the PS4 version of Watch Dog the latest build Joystick is one of them, I'll link them if you would like.

@banacheck

It's alright, I'll go looking for the previews myself. I am talking about that GIF that was shown. It struck me as odd that a game for PS4 would look that bad. I was disappointed enough with what I saw last summer when they demoed the game on Jimmy Fallon's Show if it took another step back that doesn't say much for the development team. This is a game I'm definitely waiting on reviews before deciding to buy it or not.

I didn't see the Jimmy Fallon's Show, that GIF was bad I do agree with that. I really like the sound of Watch Dogs and the demo before the game got delayed. I'm not expecting it to look amazing but far better than that GIF, about a step up from GTAV if you know what I mean. I just hope it's not a massive let down, I like open world games & RPG'S and with the hacking stuff it's sounds smart. The Witcher3 as its designed for the PS4 I'm really looking forwards too, like you said and the new Batman.
