Re: Watch Dogs
 
I didn't know there were so many special editions of Watch Dog which, being a new IP, doesn't necessarily deserve even one.

Sterling can be annoying, but I can't disagree with him here:

Uh, there's only two SKUs of the game coming out in America:

1. Regular edition ($59.99).
2. Limited edition ($129.99).

The big retailers (Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, etc) all have their own pre-order bonuses, but that's not a Ubisoft practice. That's an entire gaming industry practice.

Yeah, Polygon talked about it as well

http://www.polygon.com/2014/5/14/571...tions-dlc-swag

And on the CAGcast, Shipwreck mentioned he was the one that stumbled upon the chart (which has now been taken down)

People will pay for the collectors and limited editions. That's the only reason why we keep seeing them.

Sigh. That's not the issue at all. Fact is, collectors editions of new IPs go unsold quite a bit. Because who's going to pre-order a $100+ CE of something you've never heard of or played before? There's no fan-base there yet! Not to mention, having so many different bonuses spread out as incentives for retailers rather than customers just builds resentment.

even better saw that Target is offering $25 off a 12 month Plus card with purchase of Watchdogs

Hmmmm... I'd consider getting Best Buy to PM that deal except that I'm already paid on PS Plus though 2020.

Oh wow, I have it pre-ordered at BB, but I might have to do this instead.

Curious to see the reviews on this because what I have seen from the streams hasn't looked very inspiring.

I'd have to agree. The whole point, for me, was the fact that it was an immersive world you could hack your way around... but it looks so... empty...

Here's the game's map:

Looks like it's decently large, though I've been to Chicago a few times and I don't remember it being an island...
