Check out our full written Watch Dogs review.

Few people are better at deflating a massively popular game than Conan O’Brien, whose Clueless Gamer segment has him playing hot new releases and providing the perplexed, hilarious commentary of an acerbic, non-gamer comedian.

Nvidia’s new RTX Spark platform has landed one of its first major games.
