Watch Dogs
Ubisoft's Watch Dogs has taken some heat for downgrading the visuals of the console version from the game's reveal trailer. However, the PC version makes no such compromises.
The video shows off the game's virtual Chicago, which looks amazingly detailed thanks to some NVIDIA technology like "HBAO+" (horizon-based ambient occlusion, which allows for better shadowing) and improved anti-aliasing.
If the final PC game does indeed look like it does in this trailer when it releases, it should be impressive indeed.
