I bought Watch Dogs online for £3.04 and the first thing it asks you to do is shoot Maurice. Obviously controversial, I didn't want to shoot Maurice so I shut down the game and I doubt I will play it again. What a waste of money.

Why play any game that has a story? It's going to make you do something you don't want to do eventually.

Exactly, not many games let you make decisions.

You can always shoot and miss.

You don't actually shoot him, but it is pretty dumb.

You're not actually missing much by not playing Watch Dogs. It's a pretty unremarkable game altogether.

If that's how long your attention span lasts, I'm shocked you've survived in this world past infancy.

I actually enjoyed the game. What pissed me off was the stuttering when it launched.

Star Fox Adventures, every single thing.

It's the only game I know of when a npc asks for some food to eat as an objective, and when you do bring them it they ask for more, TWICE.

Probably the smartest decision you've made in a while. Watch Dogs is one of the most boring games I've played in the last few years. It's like walking on mud...I kept threading in hopes it would get better, it never did. Hacking is fun for the first 5 minutes but it's annoyingly repetitive, the story (if you can call it a story) is dull and uninteresting, which matches perfectly with the characters in the game. The combat mechanics are average at best, since the focus of the game was clearly for you to hack through everything...there's no saving grace to that game in my opinion.

Seriously? to make you feel things - joy or hate, depends on the person you are.

Have I had fun shooting random citizens on Modern Warfare 2 storyline? not really, but it was part of the storyline.

Do you always agree on actions that characters in movies do? I doubt it.

I always tried to reject the Deku Tree's and Zelda's request to save the world, but the damn game wouldn't let me :@

I hate doing any kind of timed mission. I know its gonna suck every time and i've quit many many games because of those.
