    Anyone else looking forward to this?
    An GTA style open world but with some brains for a change.

    First I seen of it I thought assassins creed in a shifty flasher jacket crossed with GTA with added magic smartass phone. :lol:

    How could that not be good. :D

    This has me interested, keeping an eye on it

    Currently £20.99 at cd keys, so very tempting

    £20.99 seems a fair price. I'll wait and see before I take the plunge.

    Anyone else think that the recommended specs are a bit over the top?

    An i7-3770? and paired with a 560ti?

    I guess it's a highly CPU intensive game but that just seems very odd to me.

    Considering the new generation of consoles have 8 CPU's this this makes sense. The game is probably optimised to use the CPU's in the console more than the graphics card.

    Been looking forward to this and will probably buy it.

    True, whilst the consoles both have 8 core processors, aren't they significantly lower clocked? Around the 1-6-1.8Ghz mark if memory serves compared to the i7's 3.4Ghz at stock.

    I'm still going to buy this game and I own both a Xbox one and a PS4 so at the end of the day I'll just get it on whatever runs it best.

    I think your right there. I'm thinking the code has probably been written to take advantage of the 8 cores. I'm going to buy this for the PC even though i'm still running a core i7 920.

    The game does look good though i'm not sure if there will be a great deal of longevity.

    i'm unsure about this game, it does look pretty cool and i'm looking forward to playing it but for some reason i feel it won't be THAT good.

    Looks interesting. But I have a feeling it won't be as good as intended. It has been so hyped
    up, it just won't live up to it.

    I'm still waiting for GTA V on PC. lol

    This game looks awesome! Here's some gameplay footage.



    I like the fact the other players can come into your world to hack you, and vice versa. Can't wait for this!

    Wasn't this announced with the last of us and then put back cause Ubisoft said they wanted to make it better.."worthy of being called next gen".

    My poor pc won't run it. :( Only good for pron these days.

    Probably gonna get this for fathers day on Xbone, just cos need more games for it and its more of a game i would like to play on the sofa.

    Spec is weird.....so my i3-3570K + 2GB GTX 760 would not run it? Yet the old 560 I just got rid of would :S

    Wonder if a demo will be out, im curious about trying to run it lol.

    I think it looks good to be fair, although the gun sounds are a little weak..
