Chicago Weather

What lovely chicago weather there is today, haaaa. The sky is roaring hell down with oceans and hulk winds, and I'm forced to question whether the weather is chaotically heinous because of global warming, or just by being in Chicago. Seriously, I think we're cursed by a jilted weather deity. That, or Storm from X-Men is a real woman living in Chicago, who recently developed a bad crack habit and started messing with the weather.
(she's certainly got that glassy-eyed qualification)


But what the weather really got me excited about is Ubisoft's upcoming game Watch Dogs, which takes place in an alternate reality version of Chicago, that is controlled by a supercomputer matrix that records the personal information of everyone down to their habits. Coming out in quarter four of this year, as one of the most hyped flagship games of the PS4, the 'hack & shoot' dynamic is fantastic looking. And they mapped the ENTIRE CITY OF CHICAGO. Check it out. They even turned Johnny Rockers into a nightclub/art show.

It makes me practically giddy with excitement to think that the city that I know and love so dearly is about to be the main stage of some technologically charged battle for justice.  Plus, you can just go around and fuck with traffic and stuff.  I know we've all wanted to.   More than anything though, I'm interested to see how the weather dynamic is played out.  From the trailer, it's clear that the infamous windiness of the city is going to be a large part of the game.  But I really want to see some Snowpocalypse action.  Seriously
