Attendance averages in the few hundred thousands yearly, dwarfing E3 by multiple times. It's Euro-centricity tends to motivate publishers and developers from the surrounding area to make bigger splashes there. Between August 20th and 24th of this year, we will have out eyes and ears open for the oncoming deluge of game info pouring out of Cologne, Germany.

New Wiki Monday: Watch Dogs
We saw so many upcoming games this year at E3 that amaze us, and Watch Dogs, the new title from Ubisoft, is no different. The Watch Dogs Wiki is the highlight of this week's New Wiki Monday, which hosts information for and by the Watch Dogs' community. This title will be available for both next and current gen consoles, as well as the Windows platform.
Watch Dogs takes place in an alternative version of Chicago. You play the game as Aiden Pierce, a renegade hacker, who finds would-be victims to rescue them from their attackers and evades the police by hacking into cell phones, super computers and other electronics. Multi-faceted combat includes parkour and stealth, and Watch Dogs has multiplayer elements available, such as trying to hack the main character.
