people are overlooking the fact that watch dogs is being made by reflections studio. in my opion they havent made a good game since driver 2 on the playstation. the last driver wasnt that bad but it wasn´t great either. so im still skeptical about watch dogs the demo looked good but it looked very scripted.
gta on the other hand is made by rockstar who have a great track record and have my faith in creating a great title. we have seen some more off V and to me it looks very promising.
i dont know why u would put these 2 head to head at this moment (because how little we know of watch dogs) they look very different games only both open world but completely different gameplay wise i think.
after some research i found out that you are right. after last e3 i remember reading a article who said it was only reflections so i´ve always believed that and made me skeptical. the demo of the e3 definitely sparked my interest. now that i know its a co development with another studio (ubisoft montreal like u say who have some great some not so great titles). i hope they can bring the best of each other studios together. i also hope they both be great but at the moment im only really stoked for gtaV. because of my history with the series and knowing what kind of game to expect. it´s just to soon for a head to head article for a game with a good history and a brand new ip with only one short demo showed. but u are right thank you for bringing it to my attention my hopes just rised a bit:)
I haven't seen much on Watch Dogs, but I am keeping an eye out.
GTA V is doing something, the series needs and that is dynamic action within the open world setting. It's not just yellow circles and cutscenes, but they are putting some Uncharted or inFAMOUS 2 in the open world with the cutscenes and the way they are bring a really cinematic experience to such a genre. This game is going to flow better than any GTA before and it will be something insane. Also pretty curious to see how the 3 characters work and can't wait to get back in the cockpit of a big ass plane.
GTA V will win over Watch Dogs both interms of entertainment value and sales, but Watch Dogs has better visuals and seems to have a stronger storyline.
Interms of freedom, though, nothing will beat GTA V i believe.
The best open world game of 2013 is clear, really there is no doubt in my mind it will be Yakuza 5....
Or at least I would like to be able to say that, but given the current circumstances of the publisher, I really can't at this time. Hopefully that will change.
I don't THINK Ground Zeroes will be open world, in the same sense as a GTA game or Saints Row. I believe what they meant in the demo from August by "open", was that the levels will be massive, and you can choose how to approach each missions, and from where etc.. Like Peace Walker for instance, how it was broken down to mission numbers and you could choose each individually. I think Ground Zeroes will be like that, only much more massive and grand. I could be wrong however, and man I would love a complete sandbox game, but what leads me to believe it will be more like Peace Walkers mission layout is that you can call in that helicopter to return to your base. To me, that hinted at a similar style.
I don't think MGS:GZ will come out in 2013. MGS4 was announced in 2005 and didn't end up being released until 2008. What makes anyone assume he'd release MGS:GZ the following year, after announcing it?
MGS4 is a PS3 exclusive that used up tons of space and a lot more work was put into it. MGS:GZ isn't going to take a long time to make. MGS4 had a better engine and now they're using a downgraded "fox engine" to push out games faster.
@Megaton I doubt it. If he had played Sleeping Dogs he wouldn't have gotten the name wrong and would know that it is obviously not a 2013 game. Also it's a great game.
GTA V, it's a beloved franchise already and will make millions regardless though Watch Dogs does have potential to be the next big original open world IP but we'll have to wait and see.
Umm not trying to support anyone here but your argument is kinda bs
Ubisoft founded 1986 Rockstar founded 1998
Number of games published:
Rockstar: around 50 Ubisoft: well lets just say easily beats Rockstar, look at wiki and get shocked
Maybe if you're talking about open world games experience:
Well look at AC3 and tell me thats not large if not the biggest scale in any friggin game till date.
Rockstar has only had a small selection of major games which were good such as Red dead, Gta, Max Payne 3 (1 and 2 were only ported by them), Bully kinda, LA noire, Midnight club
Ubisoft has had loads of successes and have a large base of IPs in almost every genre of gaming.
So experience wise im not sure what you're talking about.
Yes he was obviously talking about open world games, those few games your talking about re better than all Ubisoft games. R* release quality games that make an impact their like blizzard in a sense that they release a few games but they are highly successful. R* would lose their bizaze if they started dishing out a lot of games that's why people get excited when they work on anew game and that's why their so successful.
Don't get me wrong whatch dogs looks great but gta will always be top dog... ;)
Both :P , it would be crazy to choose one of them when i can get both and enjoy them for what they are , i don't have a best game , each game i play is different , i just have fun and move on ...
Haven't seen enough of Watch Dogs to really judge. It's a new ip too so I have no idea how it will play whereas GTA V looks impressive and bringing many elements from previous GTA games making it quite possibly may make it the best GTA game. Either way, I'll look forward to picking both up, I love open-world games!
I think the GTA games are great but i have grown a bit weary of the franchise after playing every entry from GTA 3 to GTA 4. I dont like to rejudge but GTA5 seemed like more of the same from passed GTA games but with a few more improvements here and there. Dont get me wrong the game looks great but with a few new additions to the game its not quite enough for me to part ways with my money.
However Watch dogs really caught my eye at E3 not only for graphics but how it played, it seemed quite different as it seems to offer new gameplay features on top of your typical gunplay. I hoped for a change in GTA 5 to freshen things up, possibly with a near futuristic setting around the year 2025 but was bitterly disappointed.
I know its too early to decide on who will be better or if ones better then the other but ill likely get Watch dogs instead.
in my opion they havent made a good game since driver 2 on the playstation. the last driver wasnt that bad but it wasn´t great either. so im still skeptical about watch dogs the demo looked good but it looked very scripted.

GTAV gets me vote, really feel like it's gonna be a blast.
guys here fight for who the best all they like
every thing on N4G must turn into
game X vs. game Y
after some research i found out that you are right.
after last e3 i remember reading a article who said it was only reflections so i´ve always believed that and made me skeptical.
the demo of the e3 definitely sparked my interest.
now that i know its a co development with another studio (ubisoft montreal like u say who have some great some not so great titles).
i hope they can bring the best of each other studios together.
i also hope they both be great but at the moment im only really stoked for gtaV. because of my history with the series and knowing what kind of game to expect.
it´s just to soon for a head to head article for a game with a good history and a brand new ip with only one short demo showed.
but u are right thank you for bringing it to my attention my hopes just rised a bit:)

Right now I have to go with GTAV
Second Gta 5
third uhm ..?
MGS4 was announced in 2005 and didn't end up being released until 2008. What makes anyone assume he'd release MGS:GZ the following year, after announcing it?
I doubt it. If he had played Sleeping Dogs he wouldn't have gotten the name wrong and would know that it is obviously not a 2013 game.
Also it's a great game.
Sleeping Dogs
Watch Dogs
The damn dogs.
My PSN is the same as my username here so if you really feel the need to check my history, then by all means.
However, Just Cause 3 is probably on par with GTA V for me as the most anticipated game of it's kind.

GtaV besides the open world(which I've played again and again in soooo many games) and the usual gangstah plot umm nothing really exciting to me.

AC3 does not have cars, that is a big part of these games.

I'm still buying GTA, but I'm also glad Chicago's getting some more of the spotlight.
