10 Tiny Video Game Details Which Will Blow Your Mind

3. Watch Dogs 2 - NPCs Pose For Selfies

What so many people loved about Watch Dogs 2 was that it seemed to drop the po-faced seriousness that "dogged" the original. We weren't a brooding antihero with a tragic backstory. Here, we were a young, fresh faced and altogether more energetic hacker who has as much fun as he did close calls.

And seeing as this is an Ubisoft open world game, of course there were secrets abound. Nearly everywhere you looked, or even who you looked up using your tech, resulted in humorous references and in-jokes. And one of the lovely touches that really didn't need to be included can be triggered every time you pull out your camera phone.

Whereas most games with a photo mode will let you play around with the angle and zoom, here in Watch Dogs 2 the NPCs sometimes reacted to your personal photoshoot by either posing for the camera or sometimes flipping you off or chewing you out.

It's this level of extra interaction that makes games like this so memorable.
