Watch Dogs: 10 Reasons It Might Disappoint

3. Next Gen Gets All The Good Stuff

Watch Dogs Shooting

Next year, when Watch Dogs releases, millions upon millions will have PS4's and Xbox One's nestled comfortably under their entertainment units (provided we don't see another underwhelming Wii U debacle and noone is willing to shell out - which isn't likely.) Watch Dogs is a cross-gen release that will come out for both platforms, but by then it's not hard to see that the next-gen versions will be much fancier and deliver a crisper experience.

For those stuck with the last gen it's still alright to get Watch Dogs, but the graphical capabilities of the new consoles mean this is shaping up to be a very pretty game indeed. We also don't know if Ubisoft will add last minute, next-gen only features to the game as a result of a massive surge of people adopting the new consoles.

Chances are if you're on PS3 or Xbox 360, the Watch Dogs you'll be getting won't be as complete as the PS4 and Xbox One experience. It's just a matter of the limits of the console generation.
