"We animated Aiden's thumb movements so he's better at hacking," Graham explained. "For example, when he hacks a tower, you'll see he clicks on the screen properly with his thumb. We didn't have that quite right before."

Nimble fingers aren't the only piece of impressive animation you'll find in Watch Dogs, which Graham says is possible on the new generation systems because of the increase in memory availability.

"The animation is always a bottleneck on memory, so we can have a lot more diversity and variety now," he explained.
