*Ubisoft* surprised everyone when it showed *Watch Dogs* at its E3 2012
conference. A completely new title, it's an open world thriller set in
Chicago. The first thing that springs to mind is GTA IV, as it's a
third-person game set in a big city, but watching the gameplay video, you
quickly see where Watchdogs is different. The atmosphere is much darker, and
your character is some kind of agent with a device that lets him hack
communication and electronic systems. He can monitor mobile phones, search
personal data, and hack the city's Central Operating System to control
everything from stop lights to bridges. This can be used to create some
serious and creative havoc - in the demo we see a target being taken out with
an orchestrated traffic pile up. Currently there is little known about when
Watchdogs will be released, but it's sure to make gaming headlines when it
does. Check back for more details soon! You can watch this 9 minute gameplay
video to get a taste of Watch Dogs now: Download *Watch Dogs Preview* in
