Who knew? Computer nerds can fight too! Watch Dogs protagonist Aiden Pierce may be a technical genius, but he's also quite the thug when it comes to combat, according to a new video focusing on the motion capture for the game. Man, who was the bully in his school?

"For Aiden, we tried to create a fighting style that's a lot more realistic than you normally see," said animation director Colin Graham. "We didn't want to do anything that was fancy or showy. We wanted to create a brutal street fighting style, all survival fighting. Every move that he makes is about trying to take somebody out ... Everything is just raw and fast and extremely violent."

Watch Dogs is coming to PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii U on November 19. It will also come to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, depending on when the consoles launch.
