While not always seen as the greatest game series, the Watch Dogs titles have all brought out something special. Sure, they haven’t gotten the strongest critical reception, but they all are quite fun in their own respects. If you haven’t had a chance to jump into the series, you really should. Given the news regarding this upcoming weekend, now would be the perfect chance.
