Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the gameplay, story, hacking mechanics, and open world of Watch Dogs. Many also appreciate the game's side missions and the price point for a pre-owned copy. However, some customers find the driving mechanics and controls challenging, while others have concerns about the level of violence depicted. Overall, the positive feedback on the core gameplay elements outweighs the negative comments on specific aspects.

    There are some mini games, the spider tank in particular, that are awesome! The gameplay is cool, but a little boring. Still I give it good marks because of the different options available.

    My career is in the computer world, so for me I thought it was an awesome game. It's GTA but for the techies. Think of GTA but with everything being on a Network that you can just hack. Sometimes it's a little too much though. The concept is great, but I almost wish the driving/shooting was GTA. it's certainly more difficult. Overall, I think it's a great game and would recommend for the GTA lovers or anyone who dreams of being a hacker ;-)

    I haven't played this game myself but I have watched my son play it. Looks pretty fun. It's sort of like GTA with the character being a hacker. Pre-owned price is great too!

    This game is great at making you feel plugged in to the world. I feel the side quests don't do much other than unlocking additional missions. Overall I think the game is worth playing.

    Watchdogs is a ton of fun to play. However, it can be somewhat clunky when navigating between cell-phone manipulation to driving to free-running. It actually slows the game down.

    I love this game -- I believe this is where gaming will go in the future. Its a single player environment, free-roaming with the potential for run-ins with other single players doing missions. There is no game like this on the market today. You do get nagged to do things like multiplayer in the game.

    This game is great. Especially if you're into invading other people's lives and watching their very uncomfortable moments.The multiplayer let's you invade other people's game and hack them. It's delightful to hide on top of a train station and watch other people try to find you before time runs out.

    Game is good, has a unique factor not present on any other game. However the city feelings much less alive than previous gen GTA V. Still worth getting if you own next gen console.

    If you are looking for an experience like a Grand Theft Auto, but with some added modern day twist, Watch Dogs is for you. Hacking makes so many things accessible in Watch Dogs!

    One of the best games I've played in a long time! The campaign storyline of this game is just amazing and the multiplayer is just really easy to switch over from the campaign instead of having to log off and go back to the main menu to just switch over like other typical games would have us do.

    Fun game for killing some time. The story for the campaign is a bit uninspired, but the side missions and hacking goodness makes up for it. Car chases are a lot of fun as well.

    Watch Out for Watch Dogs

    First let me get the elephant out of the room, the graphics in this game are not that great. Yes it's on a next gen console, but there isn't much to rave about in resolution nor frames per second. Sometimes graphics are allowed to take a backseat if the gameplay is worthy enough though, and this is Watch Dogs. The gameplay is definitely what you play this game for and for which will reward you with an intriguing story set around the mean streets of Chicago. This is definitely a game to try out, especially if you can get it at a low price, everyone should experience this, even if it's not next gen graphic fidelity.

    This game is very fun and the story line is interesting. It plays just like GTA. The driving can get annoying because it is a pain to turn. Overall it's a good game though.

    I thought the graphics would be better. Cars look really boxy. GTA gameplay graphics seem the same or even a little better in some aspects. Still a fun game to play though.

    Innovative gameplay, poorly executed

    The concept of this game is very original and could have been something amazing. However, I feel that they have fallen short of all the hype and build up of Watch Dogs. The same several basic structures of each mission seem to be recycled over and over. Different dialogue, same mission structure. Becomes very dull quickly. I if wasn't compelled to finish every game I buy, I would have given up on this already. The basics of a great game are there, but they just aren't fully realized. Buy at your own risk.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    This game is simply amazing. Think about Grand Theft Auto meets the master hacker. So far the game has been very fun to play and hard to put down. I love the pacing and the overall interaction in the game and it inspires me to actually play more to learn about the various characters.

    Watchdogs is like GTA on steroids. Cop chases are always entertaining and the profiling of NPCs is awesome. Graphics can get glitchy at points, but I'm not one to complain about visual fidelity. It def looks and feels like a next gen game. If you don't have it yet, buy it! So fun!

    Bought this game as it was one of the most anticipated games for consoles for 2014. I have to say, so far I completely agree. This game is one you will spend countless hours on playing alone or with friends online. Can't wait to see what bonus content they develop for this game.
