10 Released (And Upcoming) Games You Should Buy For The Wii U
5. Watch_Dogs
Set in parallel universe version of the Windy City, Watch_Dogs tells the story of skilled (and tough) hacker Aiden Pearce as he wages an information war with the city's near-omnipotent Operating System called CtOS (Central Operating System). Aiden uses both his fists and wits to overcome the police and those who truly wish to stop him dead in his tracks. Why You Should Buy It Once again, the deciding point of this game seems to be the Wii U GamePad. Said to be a natural fit for Watch_Dogs by Senior Producer Dominic Guay, this seems most logical when looking at how the game plays, especially through the eyes of the character. Imagine you're Aiden walking through the streets of Chicago and you want to electronically steal funds from the fat cat banker who just pimp slapped the prostitute whose services he barely paid her for. Just swipe and tap the GamePad's touchscreen and hack away, leaving the fat cat's bank account dry with incriminating photos of his handiwork sent to every news station in the city. After all, doesn't Aiden use a handheld device to do his hacking? While specific uses of the GamePad's touchscreen have not been made public yet, statements such as those by Guay are telling about their direction. There is also talk of the smartphone companion app being a downloadable asset on the GamePad itself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2HbBxtmCCaI
