      Still to this can't believe how badly they ruined watchdogs legion, watch dogs 2 no kidding is like one of the most enjoyable games I have ever played, one of the fewest games that I went back for a 2nd playthrough, the gameplay is just amazing, all the hacking abilities and freedom to approach each mission and messing with AI and etc... still can't believe Ubisoft took it's pants down took a huge dump on everything good and positive they made and had with WD2 and made extremely boring and soulless garbage which was WD legion

      It would actually be nice to have a sequel to continue addressing the main theme that was never truly answered. That question of allegiance and identity was left ambiguous, which was a smart decision. But I feel like a lot more could be explored with this.

    The first Stuntman was one of my favorite games growing up. Very frustrating to learn the levels but I always enjoyed the challenge on learning all of the levels and driving mechanics to get a good score. The game was ahead of its time a bit in my opinion especially with the realistic driving physics which made it even more enjoyable to folks like me. There really wasn't too many other games during that period that encompassed the physics the game had.
