While we’re still working away on our review for Watch Dogs, critics have already weighed in on the game, and thus far the consensus is pretty positive. Sure, like many open world titles, Watch Dogs is not without its faults, but it appears the promise of technology-fueled freedom is (mostly) delivered by Ubisoft.
By now, though, gamers are no longer concerned with learning how Watch Dogs does or does not change the game as far as next-gen titles are concerned, or how Aiden Pearce’s allies figure into the story of revenge. Rather, they want to know whether the highly anticipated game is worth the $60 price tag, or in the case of the Limited Edition, $120. Read on for some choice excerpts:
