So Ubisoft offered me a £200 tablet at a Watch Dogs preview event
Who watches the watchers, and all that.
I went to see Watch Dogs in Paris recently. I can’t tell you anything about that yet for embargo reasons, but thanks to the Force of Revelation that is PCGamesN’s Steve Hogarty, I can tell you about the “asset stick” I was handed before we boarded the train to the venue. It’s an Asus Google Nexus 7 tablet – leading man Aiden Pearce’s “favourite” tablet, supposedly – which now sells for about £200 brand new. Also in the accompanying Watch Dogs-branded napsack: a bottle of mineral water, a leather tablet case and a box of Smints. I’ll admit to keeping and eating the Smints. OK, I’ve drunk the water too. I’m only human, you monsters.
