TheWorse comes through with the latest build of his Watch Dogs graphical enhancement mod for the PC version.

As promised the 0.97 version of the mod that will improve your Watch Dogs PC visuals has been released. The mod has also moved home to a new blog site set up by TheWorse which is probably due to all the drama that happened in the original forum thread last week.
