Watch dogs
We did not get a lot of new information on watch dogs in this year's E3. We only got a new demo and a cgi trailer but we did get some new information on the multiplayer.
The multiplayer in this game is split in 2 modes. The "good" mode is a mode where you call a guy playing on a tablet to your single player game to "help" you by doing stuff you could do anyways. The "bad" mode is played on a separate gamemode like a normal multiplayer. In this gamemode you will mess with to other players that could either be playing on tablets or on other gaming devices (not sure how that works but ok...). This mode will be a lot like the assassin's creed muliplayer since you have to identify other players from civilians and hack them. This mode doesn't harm your single player world if you loose, but it can help you if you win.

To be honest, I don't car much for this tablet multipayer gaming nonsense. Having people "help" me in a single player game is something that looks useless to me. Problably, what will happen is that other players will ruin your gaming experience by messing around with it.
Apart from this, I think the "bad" multiplayer will be a good addition but not a necessary one.
On a final note, I just hope ubisoft keeps the stealthy hacking theme for this game and doesn't nail it down to just another GTA clone with hackers.

Assassin's creed 4: Black flag
The assassin's creed series have been loosing itself with time. Assassin's creed 3 was a long boring story where you managed a homestead and fought the British empire in naval battles. Don't get me wrong: this was not a bad game, but it was loosing quality for trying to implant "Assassin's creed" in a game that was clearly not meant for that.
In Assassin's Creed 4, they decided they wanted to completely throw the assassin's creed franchise to the rubbish bin something else, and I completely agree with that decision. There is no way another assassin's creed game could be better than assassin's creed 2.

Black flag is a pirate game. It has a open Caribbean world where you can sail everywhere you want. It has 50 locations, 3 of them being big main cities and 1 of them is your customizable home.
You can obviously still walk and run on the cities and other locations. Stealth is back to the game and they say they finally increased the difficulty of the game.
I'm very excited about Black Flag. This game emanates the feeling of freedom and I apreciate that very much. There isn't any good pirate videogame that I can think of, so, if ubisoft does this well, this game is gonna be amazing.

The crew
Apart from its CGI trailer, The Crew is not that new. It is based on Need for Speed: Most Wanted, and uses assets from need for speed world and Fuel.
This game is a racing mmo, where you can drive in an open world, driving though events and competing or cooperating with other people. The range of events is very small so far, showing some racing events, time trials and takedown events. There are also chalenges scattered around the world.
Apart from it's shallowness, this game has something that stands out among other games. The car costumization of this game looks very promising. In this game, if you costumize a car for off-road, the car looks a rally car, instead of just chaging the color or tires.

At the end, there is really not much to say about this game. Everything they said at e3 about it was that you can play it with your friends. There are a lot of better and more promising games at this e3, so I think I will keep my money on this one.
