According to Ubisoft

And they posted this on facebook:

Enjoy your time in beautiful Los Santos. On November 19, we'll see you in Chicago_

[benny_a]

I think it's a fun ad.

 

[The Lamp]

Wow, this is some unusual video game marketing. Acknowledging one of your largest competitors in the ad.

 

[Ashler]

Pretty smart.

 

[fantomena]

Haha.

 

[Jamix012]

If there's one thing Ubisoft have done really well with Watchdogs, it is its marketing.

 

[JustAnotherOtaku]

That's pretty cool. Kudos to Ubi!

 

[Nymphae]

Love it, having a little fun with marketing, knowing your audience.

 

[granabanana]

Now that is being as PRick with PR

 

[strafer]

Oh Ubisoft

 

[Tobor]

I think I'm going on a Carribean cruise instead, Ubisoft.

Wait, you get my money either way. You sly dogs.

 

[def sim]

The ad is right.

 

[R3TRO]

Nice.

 

[Montresor]

Wow that is an awesome ad. That put a smile on my face, hahaha.


Definitely will get this on XB1 eventually. Ubisoft is amazing this year. Rayman Legends + AC4 (i.e. Next-Gen Wind Waker) and Watch Dogs all look great.

 

[The Smoking Bun]

Let's hope this dog has the bite to back up that bark

 

[Dukey]

After experiencing the sunny world of Los Santos, I never want to return to the muddy, drab worlds of NY or Chicago. But ultimately what will determine if I keep playing GTA5 instead of buying Watchdogs will be GTA Online.

 

[FTF]

Ha, I like it.

 

[Anth0ny]

That's pretty funny.

 

[HigherLevel]

Two months is barely any time to spend in Los Santos. Regardless I'll be getting the next-gen version of Watch Dogs as soon as I have a next-gen console. I like the ad even though I don't agree with it haha.

 

[DaBoss]

That's very nice.

 

[Jamie OD]

I like it. A bit cheeky but nothing really malicious.

Spoiler

Unless you're offended by the idea of people trading in GTA V in two months time.

 

[Silky]

What sports.

 

[Krusenstern]

Aggressive marketing is best marketing.
But I expect the game to be another bland and soulless mass production like Ubi's other games.

 

[mmitt]

reminds me of RIFT's "We're not in Azeroth anymore"

funny stuff

 

[Rawket Lawnchair]

Shots fired, great ad.

 

[Steiner84]

but the weather!

 

[Aquamarine]

It recognizes, respects, and encourages the competition while still drawing parallels to its own product.

Classy move, Ubisoft.

 

[PureGone]

That's a really good ad

 

[hawk2025]

I actually kind of like it too!

But...... can I get it November 15th? Anyone knows?

 

[The_Monk]

Thanks for posting fellow GAFfer.

Really liked it. Fun and harmless. See, people? We can all be just good friends!

 

[pokeystaples]

I like it. Smart as all hell. Much better, IMO, than the #GATV SRIV stuff.

 

[The_Darkest_Red]

Haha, that's pretty good.

 

[Quirah]

actually this game hypes me better than gta 5.

 

[Dug]

reminds me of RIFT's "We're not in Azeroth anymore"

funny stuff

This too:

 

[flyinpiranha]

I like it. It always bugs me when developers don't acknowledge that other games exist. Especially cultural phenomenons such as GTA.

Will be playing this on my PS4 in a couple months for sure (while also playing GTA).

 

[notoriousKTR]

I guess it was the weather...

 

[Creaking]

Nice ad, though I feel like Watch_Dogs will be a lot narrower and more focused in it's open world. Aiden probably won't fly a helicopter.

 

[TechnicPuppet]

Good ad, I like it.

Reminds me of this trailer for Austin Powers

[Horse Armour]

It's also enough time to realise that Watch Dogs' Chicago is nothing but a boring, empty husk devoid of any worthwhile activities.

 

[StoppedInTracks]

From Steam:

 

[hayguyz]

_heh that's a _pretty GOOD AD I LIKE IT

 

[Goldenroad]

I hope they're right. I've got Watch_Dog's and only Watch_Dogs pre-ordered with my PS4.

 

[MCD]

And enough time for Ubi's first title update.

 

[Paskil]

Ubisoft have pretty much been making all the right moves this year. I like the ad and Watch Dogs is probably going to be the first game I play on my PS4

Spoiler

maybe Resogun, depending on mood

.

 

[KaiserBecks]

Would've been nice if they told me why I would want to go to Chicago. Everything I've seen of Watchdogs so far looks like your typical, shallow Ubisoft open world game. Don't think you're a contender just because you're in the same genre.

 

[Asd202]

Hehe nice one.

 

[Klocker]

Man so torn between this and AC bf. Does not seem like it can compare at all to gta but we need to see more

 

[Diprosalic]

This too:

they forgot to put the DTA in ;(

 

[HK-47]

It's also enough time to realise that Watch Dogs' Chicago is nothing but a boring, empty husk devoid of any worthwhile activities.

Holy shit, a time traveler!

 

[The Albatross]

Pretty cool. A good shot at GTA and also giving some credit to them.
