This GIF should help put things into perspective. I specifically avoided the 2012 rainy scene due to the obvious advantage.

The only thing that would make this whole debacle better is if this was a console exclusive.

Can you imagine the shitstorm?...

The animation is probably the most distracting thing here. It reminds me of the Tony Hawk games during cutscenes.

I hate Aisha so much.

Also please stop ruining new Whose Line Aisha.

Watch Dogs looks ok but like most Ubi games doesn't look as good as it did on first glance.
 
Wasn't this a joke video from Comic Con? Was it presented during a panel?

If so, I'd bet money it was probably done on the side and rendered differently without the game engine.

Fake Edit: And in his latest tweet he said the current-gen looked better than that trailer. This kinda helps validate what I thought.

It's just terrible advertising to have this video around. Just look at what people say here. If it's a joke or whatever, at least TELL it to people because otherwise they'll think it's what the game is going to look like since we're pretty much close to release. Oh and also as long as they don't show those PS3/360/(WiiU?) versions people will think they're trying to hide something.

Hardly. What platform is this footage on if not current-gen?

Mobile obviously.

I agree that it's poor advertising though.
 
Wait, why do people hate Aisha?

Is it more to do with the fact that her implementation for gaming related PR seems fake and forced, or did she say or do anything else that pissed people off? Some kind of youtube clip I can watch that puts all of this in perspective?

Also please stop ruining new Whose Line Aisha.

She's doing fine and she' getting better each episode. And this is coming from a diehard whose line fan, aka a fan who has all the episodes on his computer permanently, bought all the dvds released for it as well, and even keeps up with the improv shows the creators of whose line make, whether its in britain, or a limited run show in the US that didn't get much attention.

The weak part about the show are the special guests. There's only been 2 or 3 games so far (imo) out of the 10 that were actually up to the quality of the games that only involve the regular performers on the show, or involved audience members in the Drew version of the show.

She's a girl into games. She's annoying. She's faking it. She's not attractive. etc. etc. Typical internet stuff.

No it really doesn't. It looks good for what its doing on a PS3/360. But if it was run through the same lens as this trailer was you'd have people pointing out really crappy NPC models, weak animations, terrible textures, bad effects, IQ problems out the wazoo etc.
"same lens" ?

What the fuck are you even talking about. you sound so fucking silly its embarrassing. You just showed us what half a billion people have seen. GTAV looks way better. Please stop. This isnt acceptable even by current gen standards. Stop pretending current gen games look bad just because ps4 is later this year.

Yes it is and it would make more sense that way than that being the next-gen versions. I still remember the ALIENS fiasco but it would make more sense if it was just a really bad decision marketing-wise rather than outright lying about the entire game and live demos they've had.

Also, this was another of their marketing blunders. Just shameless and tasteless.

If this isn't the current gen version and it looks so good, where are the videos? Serious question, can someone show me a video of this game running on the PS3, Xbox 360 or even Wii U?

I have a feeling that people are going to go in on the current gen versions and will get a rude awakening.

Pretty much. That and her jokes are cringeworthy and she comes off as obnoxious overall.
