Sorry, Ubisoft, but if you stop disappointing gamers, then perhaps your games won't take up so many spots on lists like this. In fairness, Watch Dogs is easily the best of the Ubisoft games mentioned here, though considering it also had infinitely higher expectations, it also remains the most woefully disappointing of the lot. Watch Dogs was first shown off to gamers at E3 2012, and promised a visually stunning, ground-breaking techno-thriller take on the GTA-esque sandbox shooter. After numerous delays, the game finally came out in mid-2014, and was...good but not great. For starters, the premise was a dispiritingly generic kidnapping storyline, the graphics were significantly downgraded from the original E3 demo, the missions were extremely repetitive, and the hacking gimmick wasn't nearly as nuanced as gamers had been led to expect. Watch Dogs is a good game and absolutely one you should play, it's just not the Earth-shattering experience so many players had been led to believe by Ubisoft. This is about as much evidence as gamers need that pre-ordering a game off the back of glossy trailers is a dangerous practise.
