Ubisoft Extends Free Game Giveaway WIC, AC IV Black Flag and Watch Dogs
There's still a chance to grab the games you missed, or haven’t grabbed any yet. Ubisoft is celebrating the festive season as well as the 10th anniversary of both World in conflict’s launch and the creation of the Assassin’s Creed’s universe.
Ubisoft Massive released World in Conflict in September 2007, an innovative RTS / RTT game in a Cold War setting. A single-player expansion called Soviet Assault followed in 2009. The game features both a strong and captivating single-player campaign and an intense multiplayer section that supports up to 16 players. With many other features, including Voice Over IP, amazing graphics and completely destructible battlefields, World in Conflict is an intense strategy experience unlike anything you’ve ever seen before. Released to high critical acclaim, it has been called one of the best strategy games ever made.
Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag includes compelling characters, an expansive world, and an infinite amount of pirate activities to engage in. It begins in 1715, when pirates established a lawless Republic in the Caribbean and ruled the land and seas. These outlaws paralyzed navies, halted international trades, and plundered vast fortunes. They threatened the power structures that ruled Europe, inspired the imagination of millions, and left a legacy that still endures. From Kingston to Nassau, explore 50 unique locations where you can live the life of a pirate as Edward Kenway. Captain and customize your own ship, search for lost treasures, hunt rare animals and loot underwater shipwrecks.
In Watch Dogs, an operating system called the Central operating System (ctOS) controls almost every piece of Chicago’s technology and holds key information on all the city’s residents. You play as Aiden Pearce, a brilliant hacker and former thug, whose criminal past led to a violent family tragedy. Now on the hunt for those who hurt your family, you’ll be able to monitor and hack all who surround you by manipulating everything connected to the city’s network. Access omnipresent security cameras, download personal information to locate target, control traffic lights and public transportation to stop the enemy… and more.
All three games will be available to download for FREE from December 18th to December 23rd. World in Conflict also includes the expansion Soviet Assault.

It became crappy toward the end IMO. It was okay overall but the last 25% of the game really ruined it for me, particularly the gameplay leading toward the end. I got the game for free so I didn't feel like it was waste, but I would have been pissed if I payed for it. Luckily I don't buy anything associated with Ubi, and I hope there won't be something I want badly enough to pay those scumbags anything.
I grabbed Watchdogs in the last giveaway. So far I've been enjoying the game - not sure why it's had so much negativity drawn toward it. So far my only gripes are the auto-aim system (you can turn it down, but not off), repeated events (such as like crime fighting hacked phone messages), car music being cut off at certain moments, and that you can't turn off auto-save. That being said, these obviously aren't big problems, though the auto-save basically kills any chance of sandboxing. When you play the game the way it was meant to be played, it is fun.

Ah, I haven't got that far yet. I guess I'll see how it pans out.

The plot going to utter nonsense was the last straw for me. I'll not bother with anything in the series after how lame I thought the first was.
