This was in the source code for the website, I shit you not.
Lol this is awesome.
I think that they are announcing/showing game this early because Ubisoft usually puts that huge banner on the side of the LA Convention center (and it is usually Assassins Creed banner but this year there is no AC game) so they want to announce WD2 properly before they put that banner.
Pretty sure it was the most successfull new IP for Ubisoft prior to The Division with like 8+ million copies sold. So yeah... Many people will care, especially if the issues and concerns are being addressed.

One of the most under appreciated games this gem. Can't wait for the sequel.

Boring. I don't even understand what its supposed to mean.
Is the first one worth playing and under what circumstances?

What does this have to do with anything? It shipped 8 million copies in two months. It was a financial success.
I wouldn't mind a link to that $10 price point in a 'very short period of time' anyways though.
You just got jammed!

Seriously.. i get what the idea behind it... but popping up a bunch of command line windows looks ridiculous.
unless the different areas on the touch screen opens up the CLI and runs specific programs to hack stuff.
...
yeah... that's gotta be it.

Ooooohhhhhhhhhhh
So the Ray Bans™ are like Google Glass? That's why he doesn't have to look at the phone?
I see you Ubi. I see you.

For all its flaws, it was mechanically superior to GTA V and had far more player agency in its missions. A sequel could be really good.
Alot of them were bad, but some were really good Ie. Spider tank, Alones, Madness, Vamp Cutthroat, Whiteout and Gecko which i switch out every now and then

Cautiously optimistic for this...
First one had solid TPS gameplay for an open world game, and the "hacking" element was a unique - albeit gimmicky - way to interact with the open world and provide a new dimension to approaching missions and other encounters.
Keeping my fingers crossed they can right the ship when it comes to the characters and plot, which is where the first game seriously struggled. A better licensed soundtrack wouldn't hurt, either, though they should bring back the guy who did the original score, which was on point.

I'm actually looking forward to this game. I enjoyed many things in the original Watch Dogs, including the on-foot movement and gunplay especially. Also, hacking people's shit to cause chaos, and judging npcs off their personal information never got old lol. The game not being shackled by last-gen hardware also excites me. I'm hoping they can polish the good concepts of the first game, and create a legitimately good sequel.
Just wish they had stuck with Chicago, they didn't do it justice in the first game.

Nah, the Ray-Bans are to show how cool he is. Hacked some poor dude's bank account to get those.
He can use his phone without looking at it because he's just that elite at hacking. I heard he can hack 5 Pentagons with only 10mb of RAM data.

Crazy thought how would that matter Aiden still looked like Aiden. This clown will still look terrible. Ubi tries way too hard to be hip when it's clearly not working.
Weird teaser but I'm still mildly interested. If they can pull off another Assassin's Creed 2 - i.e take a good concept which just wasn't executed very well and turn it into a truly excellent game then I'll be happy. WD had some good concepts and a great control system to boot - the third person movement and gunplay blew GTA V out of the water. They definitely need to improve the driving though.
Oh and ditch that iconic trench coat. Infact, throw Aidan Pierce off a bridge and pretend he never existed. Make the main character a female, of normal human proportions, who works in a post office.

This is what everyone is hoping for. Myself included. Really hoping for improvements.
Yes! Totally agree, replaying it right now and it is so much fun!

Not sure if this was intentional, but "print ('Hello World')" is usually used as the very first program computer science students make in their introductory course (mostly based on Python). I guess that's kinda cool?

I really enjoyed Watch Dogs, and am looking forward to this. I like to have other companies trying their hand at the GTA style game.
This is likely and probably better than what the first game's story was.

Does this mean E3 is cancelled? What the hell is going to be announced there if these leaks keep coming this fast?
Terrible teaser.
Also no need to hide him, Ubi.
We've seen this clown already months ago.
Cool, we need more playable skeletons in games.
I'm legitimately excited for this! For all of its issues, the first Watch Dogs had flashes of brilliance and managed to be pretty stellar in terms of gameplay and mechanics. The gunplay, puzzles, and ability to approach missions in different/dynamic ways were all great. There's real potential here for an Assassin's Creed 2 level leap.
