No, because Guillemot has said "new consoles are long overdue", "it's better to launch a new IP on a new generation" and that they're already "developing games for next-gen".
Connect the dots.

For me, the game doesn't exist until the PS Orbis/xbox Durango versions ship.

I'll believe it when I see it. Ubisoft is known for doing anything to hype their games.
Hum, what do you mean? PS3/360 versions have been confirmed.

Has there ever been a big non-massive multiplayer online game where a player could create an actual objective? It seems so simple... Multiple players... Set a target to be killed/abducted in an FPS or action game or whatever, set a reward, 'publish' side mission, wait for it to be finished and pay for the kill.
That's what I said too, I just worded my post badly.
It's not about habits but potential sales and audience. Which atm doesn't exist for those kind of projects.

I doubt this will be a launch title. Just because it's one of the first next-gen games shown doesn't mean it'll be at launch. I think it will be out within the first six months to a year. My best estimate would be Fall 2014.

They already said 2013.
Only if they can manage not to screw up with the port.
But at least it wouldn't be a launch time, so better chances!

Wii U isn't capable of running this.
No current system is. Not looking like that.
Bumped up the thread for this shit. Come on lol.
At least post something more substantial like new gameplay vids or a concrete release date.

Come on son, da hype gets to me.
yeah I'm hyped as fuck about this game too which is why I'm sorta mad >_>
That would warrant a new thread though.
Yes, and games are never ever late.

It's Ubisoft, so only the PC version will get delayed after the initial announcement.

If you can be a next gen launch title.
Big chance that maybe 50% of the early adapters will get the game on that system.
How much did the 360 and ps3 sold year one five to ten million consoles?
Early adapters will mostly be gamers i think and the hype this game generated last E3 was big.
If they can keep that up for next E3 big chance Watch Dogs will be on those buyers list.
I'm somewhat skeptical of this game, despite all the hype surrounding it.
Developers have already made it clear how much content (Approximately.) that is possible to add to a game, regardless of team-size and funds, and since this is a game that requires an unprecedented amount of content to work like the game they are pitching, and for the dynamic scenarios to work like they are implying, I'm wondering if it's possible.
*Especially* at the graphical level this game is supposed to work at.
It will most likely work like a typical open world game, but with slightly different gadgets and gimmicks.

If you've been following gaming for some time like i assume most people on GAf have, you know most of these things are PR hyperbole bullshit.
If they say you can do 4, but seem to imply you can do 6, you usually end up doing 2.

Haha that image is so funny. But it's true -- but why do they continue to do this? It'd be understandable if it was a one time thing by an unknown studio to try and get high sales for one specific game, but every single studio does this, regardless of how long they intend to stay in the business.
When they promise certain things, but fail to deliver, they will get lower reviews and disappoint players. Wouldn't it be better to undersell it, so people are surprised?

Because, as we all know, Ubi cares about the PC platform first and foremost.
Reviews are usually pretty high and it seems to me people buy into the hype pretty easily.
I guess when you spend 70+ millions on a single project, you use every trink in the book to sell it, and i wouldn't expect otherwise, but as more experienced gamer you get to read between the lines.
That is not to say that you can't get excited or hyped for a game, of course.
Watered down though. I'm worried about the performance if AC3 is anything to go by. Good grief.

I don't want to like this as much as I do...but I like this quite a great deal.
This is my new Assassin's Creed. Hopefully they don't botch it up.

I didn't consider the limits of software or games until I had played *a lot* of different games -- and I don't think the people who don't game a lot, or take games as seriously, know about, or even consider the limits in terms of content and so forth.
Especially not when all publishers and developers imply, or even directly promise stuff that supports their assumptions. I think people just chalk the lack of those things in the actual games up to either budget, lack of time or inexperience, and continue to dream about vast, vivid worlds with few limits.
I think the majority of people know that there are tons and tons of games out there, and that the content-limit in some games don't necessarily apply to other games.
But the fact is, there is indeed an approximate limit to the amount of content or stuff that is possible to add to a game.
MMORPG's are much bigger than single player games because of the constant revenue stream, and constant updates. Not to mention that most of them have lots of procedurally generated content, and are very, very barren, and the majority of quests are extremely basic -- but gets away with it cause of the player-to-player interaction and experience.
Every game with a world over 20ish square miles tend to have lots of procedurally generated content as well, such as the Just Cause series (Exploration is kind of boring since there is little to no variation.)

I was just thinking about this today, the main character reminds me a lot of Amon Tobin (SC:CT, Infamous OST, etc.). And yes, Im a big Amon Tobin fan and hope he does the soundtrack, I think he would fit perfectly.
