Watch Dogs (Next Generation graphics)

[Determined]

I think graphics, seeing how they're such a large focus, will soon enough become obsolete & then everyone will go back to focusing on what actually makes the game a lasting experience.
Maybe I'm just dreamer.

I feel quite saddened to see that people refuse to make good gameplay anymore and instead focuses entirely on graphics and visuals. I mean, to me the graphics sure do look great (well, some quite major flaws such as that asian guy he talked to looked... dead. Those facial expressions he made as well as his slowmotion mouth is something I've only ever seen once, and that guy had ADHD.)

Maybe it's just me, but I think the whole gaming revolution took an incredibly bad turn once they started using games as graphical experiments rather than them being enjoyable games for you to find your own ways to win them. (Example, when he beats that guard. He pressed 1 button and the guy hits 4-5 times... I'd much rather have a game system where you could hit differently and it'd be up to you to find out how to beat this guy the best. E.g. this certain guard was going to alert the other guards, so a full frontal sideswing to his throat would be the best way to neutralize that. But nope, press 1 button and you're done)

I've always preferred gameplay over graphics, and at least to me I have not enjoyed any new games that are experimenting at all with graphics. The newest game I actually played was Portal 2, and I mean come on, that game has quite bad graphics even for today's standards. I LOVE THAT. Maybe I am just being cynical, I don't know, but I honestly don't remember liking any modern games before that.

I concur with you, Gavran. The best games ever made are those which have an awesome story, which is, in my opinion, the most important factor, along with the gameplay, in a video game. I am also contrary to where the gaming world is now going - focusing mostly on graphics. However, I can't judge this game without further knowledge of it. The graphics indeed are amazing, nobody denies that. Tis video shows only a small ration of what the game brings, so I can't fully judge it. However, hitherto, the story looks pretty interesting, although we don't know what it revolves around generally. So yea, up to this point I think this might turn out to be a good game with a good sotry. It kinda left me in suspence, which is also positive thing. Time will tell.

This was played on a high spec pc, not a ps3. There is an interview on gamespot somewhere. Graphics most likely will be reduced for ps3 and 360.
