Watch Dogs looks to be an awesome game that also opens our eyes to how vulnerable we are to cyber attacks. As if we didn’t know that already! In their first installment of gameplay videos, we get to see more about hacking.
Here is the video:
For those who can’t/won’t watch, the abridged version is:
ctOS is the central system for all technology including traffic control, emergency response and crime monitoring. Access to this technological heart must be unlocked district by district by installing a backdoor virus in person.
Once connected, everything can be hacked using your iPhone, I mean, smartphone. This means you can access passwords, text messages and other means of data gathering, further improving your hacking skills. You can even tag and track your enemies using security cameras, or sabotage car chases using traffic barriers or raising bridges.

I want this game, I really, really want it. I am just scared of the hype. Does anybody on the Staff know if Watch_Dogs will be available on Steam. If I buy on pc I want it through Steam.

It looks like it will be, but no official pre-order page or announcement made yet.

I wonder how the hacking will work as per mana? Or battery power? Hackpoints?

I’ll even wait for the game if I don’t get a PS4 this year, won’t buy it on current gen!! And I don’t like pre orders, so we will see if I get a PS4 after the pre order folk have gotten theirs…
