Watch Dogs-- Games I am looking forward to

     To be honest as soon as I heard that Watch Dogs would be an open-world game I instantly liked it and had to have it, but after learning more details I absolutely fell in love. For those of you who don't know, Watch Dogs is a new game from Ubisoft in which your character has the ability to control the world around him by hacking into various electronic systems. The game is an open-world game which means that the player is able to freely roam the world without being constantly involved in a mission. The world in which Watch Dogs is set is in an alternate reality of Chicago, Illinois where a central computer was set up after the 2003 blackout was discovered to have been caused by hackers. The main character, Aiden Pearce, is a highly skilled hacker who utilizes his hacking skills to gain information on citizens in the city, through the city's central computer (CtOS), as well as control and hack into many electronic items (cell phones, cameras, trains, traffic lights, etc.).

     In today's highly connected world, the idea of Watch Dogs seems to have arrived at the right time. While watching trailers and reading about the game, Watch Dog seems to put Aiden Pearce in an interesting light being neither villan or hero. Though his intentions are good such as, in one trailer, taking down a human trafficking ring through his hacking, he is not, what people would normally call, a hero. Aiden is no friend to the police nor is he a hero in the papers but he uses his hacking and fighting abilities to seek justice for a family tragedy which occurred during his criminal past. Aiden believes in street justice, where violence is answered by violence.

Everyone our main character, Aiden Pearce.

     This game looks to have hours of enjoyment with a strong story to shock and entertain the player. With the entire city in the palm of your hands it is impossible not to take enjoyment out of the control and power that comes with Aidens abilities. I am looking forward to roaming the streets of this alternate Chicago and being able to use a smartphone to control a city. The game does not only have single player gameplay but will also include multiplayer gameplay. This looks to be a strong game with Grand Theft Auto (GTA) elements that will bring hours of fun but with its own unique fingerprint that does not make it a GTA copycat. Watch Dogs will be released on PC, PS3, Wii-U, and Xbox 360 on November 19 (North America), 21 (Austrailia), and 22 (Europe) of 2013. The game will also be released on the next-gen consoles, PS4 and Xbox One, in Q4 of 2013.

Here is the trailer if you haven't seen it already:
