The Art of Watch Dogs

Titan Books have found a special place on my bookshelf with this diamond in the rough. The publisher has officially piqued my interest in their series of books. I was unaware of the quality and the depth that these artists have sank into these pages.At a mere 144 pages, I was skeptical of the value I would have with this book. The size of the book itself is very impressive, even if the content does not seem to be so dense at first glance. Each page is littered with art: characters, scenery, logos, commentary- as I take a fourth look at the page spread that has been on my desk, I now notice that the actual road map of Chicago is set as a background choice for the subject matter of the content in the foreground. The attention to detail makes this a fun book to enjoy whether you play the game or not. For Watchdogs enthusiasts or non-videogame conformists, it's a great diversion from your everyday activities. Excellent conversation piece to enjoy with a partner over coffee or to sit back and enjoy the enormous spreads in all their colorful glory.The way the book is bound is also a particular boon to note. The book is "string-bound" (for lack of a better coined phrase) meaning that each spread opens and lies perfectly flat on the table, no glue sticking the pages together, no "let me put this paperweight down to keep the book open" - nor are there any annoying pages flipping to previously viewed parts of the book due to the book not being flexed open. The pages are glossy, fingerprint-magnet beauties to behold and they lay perfectly without any extra effort from the viewer besides actually turning the pages. The quality here is exquisite.After seeing what Titan Books is capable of, I will most certainly be looking at their other art books, starting with Assassin's Creed Black Flag. Pick this up for the bargain that Amazon sells it for and you will not be disappointed. 5 Stars.

Seller had my book to me fast - I have been wanting this title for a while very pleased - great pictures and style of the book to match the game - only wish it was longer of a book

If you're a fan of the first Watch Dogs game than you will enjoy this book.

It came wrapped and brand spaken new! Loved it and aiden looked awesome

The Watch Dog art book is one of the better art books about a video game, Definitely worth purchasing even if you dont have or play the game

Amazing art work

Great

Gorgeous, sizable hardcover full of mostly concept art and some scattershot commentary. Unfortunately, it suffers some of the problems of the game, with lots of beauty and lots of ideas that don't always feel like they come together into something cohesive. I buy a bunch of art books for video games, and the best add some really good commentary and give you more "behind the scenes" insight into the collaborative creative process... I've been spoiled. I would have also liked to see more discarded ideas (and why they were discarded), reference material, etc.I don't want to damn with faint praise, though. If you're actually on the fence enough to be reading reviews, I doubt you will be disappointed in this as a coffee table book. Very high quality binding and glossy pages, and a visual treat.
