Watch Dogs

So today at the Ubisoft E3 press conference, they premiered a game called Watch Dogs.

If you go to this link: http://www.gametrailers.com/netstorage/e3/live.html and go to about 7:41:00 and watch for about 20 seconds, you will see a QR code that appears on the person's head who says "Drinks."

The QR leads to

Hopefully this is an ARG.

Scanned the site code and found nothing. Things that jumped to me: there's a light bars installation on the video going through the exhibit that maybe has numbers to decipher. The rows have 30, 18 and 25 26 bars, from top to bottom. I'm attaching the frame.

About the twitter account, searched for the date of creation (at http://whendidyoujointwitter.com) and found that "was" created at june 5, 2012. Weird or not?

Also found this in the Watchdog Official page's source code....

This was interesting to me:
"revisit-after" content="7 Days"

New info coming in 7 days?


EDIT: Also, not sure if this really means anything or not, but I will just throw it out there just in case...

I've been told there will be a lot of out of game interactions like that drinks one in the final version. The game will not be released for a while so there's plenty of time for something to happen if Ubisoft wants to do an ARG.

Been ages since I posted here...

It's possible to sign up for information regarding tickets to the event, by emailing the email found at http://dotconnexion.ubi.com/tickets.html.

I sent them a quick email registering my interest and asking to be notified when tickets are available. I find it interesting that they're using a gmail.com address, despite the availability of ubi.com, or anything owned by Ubisoft.

I seriously hope this does become something bigger, the game looked pretty awesome, and to top it off with an ARG would be great!
