Watch Dogs Delayed Until Spring 2014

Well that's kind of a surprise! One of the most anticipated games for next gen has been delayed by Ubisoft. From what I read it seems like they just want more time to polish and or just give the game more of the love it deserves or they don't want two of their biggest games going head to head this holiday season. We've seen so much of this game that its kinda heart breaking that they get us so excited but then to tell us we have to wait a bit longer is sort of a bummer. But I'd rather them take that game and make it more amazing than for them to give us a game that could have been better with more time to polish.

The open world genre is filling up with heavy hitters so I really don't blame them for wanting to spend more time polishing their game. After playing GTA V and seeing so much of Assassins Creed: Black Flag anything they do to Watch Dogs to make it stand out should be done, plus with Infamous Second Son not far behind the release of the PS4 this gives Ubisoft some breathing room. One concern I've seen across the internet after this announcement is what happens to the Watch Dogs PS4 bundles that people have already purchased?  I hope that just means that they will still get the system and Watch Dogs will be sent after release and a voucher given to those picking it up in store.

UPDATE: The Crew a next-gen Racer/MMO, also by Ubisoft, has been delayed as well.

So how do you feel about Watch Dogs being delayed? Canceling your PS4 or Xbox One pre-order because of it? Excited that they're spending more time with the game before we get it?
