Week three of the ‘shop contest 3.0 has come and gone, so here I am to announce the winners. I asked you to hack some Pokémon into Watch Dogs 2's San Francisco and here we are, awash in elemental critters and over-exposed cityscapes.
Of course, the winning ‘shop turned out to be Ace Stanning’s! You might remember Ace from such ‘shop contests as: that one that concluded just last weekend. While I don’t like to crown the same person twice, I had to make an exception just this once since Ace helped me realize that the world of Watch Dogs would actually be perfect for an open-world, first-person Pokémon game.
The crew from Watch Dogs already look like a bunch of wandering trainer flunkies, searching far and wide for small children to accost through fighting rare animals against one another. But while Ace made me cry for realizing another year has come and gone without a truly next-gen Pokémon, many of you made me laugh, so let’s take a quick look at some of what the rest of you turned in.
