If you’re like me, you’ve been playing video games your entire life. You played games when you were a kid, you kept on playing them as you grew into a teen, you played them a lot when you were in college, and you’re still playing them now that you’re a "responsible adult."

During all this time, did you ever have to justify yourself for playing video games? Did you come up with an excuse for playing videos? I ask because I think the comic featured below got it exactly right!

Ubisoft just announced that it is offering a free 3-hour trial of Watch Dogs 2. The trial is available for PS4 as of yesterday and will be available for Xbox One come January 24.

"Watch Dogs 2 has been racking up praise from critics since its November release, but if you’re still on the fence about whether to jump in, you’re about to get a risk-free chance to explore its wide-open, hacker-friendly re-creation of the San Francisco Bay Area. You’ll get full access to all the game’s features, including its seamless co-op and multiplayer,” said Ubisoft’s Mikel Reparaz.



In Watch Dogs 2 you play as the brilliant young hacker Marcus Holloway and fight the corrupt corporations that are using the ctOS 2.0 operating system to monitor and manipulate citizens on a massive scale. Team up with the Dedsec crew, an elite group of hackers, and expose the hidden dangers of ctOS 2.0.
