How is everyone enjoying the Overwatch Beta so far? I'm loving it! Right now my favorite character has to be Junkrat, because i'm a terrible person. Who's you're favorite character, if you have one?

DiscoKid3683d ago

It's a tie between Mercy and Symmetra. I really love supporting. I say the game is really solid right now; I don't even play FPS games, but I just love this game.

Poli_Games3683d ago

Same! This game has made tanking and healing actually fun! I'm having a blast so far!

Perjoss3683d ago

I've been super excited sine they announced it at Blizzcon 2014 and got to play it for the first time last night and its even better than I expected. Mercy is by far my fav as I've been playing healer types in every game that gives me that option for about 10 years now :)

I hate it glad there was a beta saved me money not my type of game

Ricegum3683d ago

Wouldn't you have realised that by seeing the teasers and trailers etc? It was pretty clear how the game was going to play.

Bluemaster773683d ago

This game is pretty awesome. I had no idea I'd like it so much. Genji??(The Ninja), And the Guy who looks like Erron Black are currently my favorites.

The game's a lot more addicting than I thought it would be, I'm hooked.

Poli_Games3683d ago

Yeah, i've been playing an unhealthy amount! Do you have a favorite character?

Kalebninja3683d ago

Still getting use to everything but right now my main Bastion, I've been dominating with him.

Tripl3seis3683d ago (Edited 3683d ago )

The beta is pretty awesome so far my favorite characters are phara and tracer but I'm willing to try other characters loving it so far.

pompombrum3683d ago (Edited 3683d ago )

I hope it's the next big thing, watching the story of overwatch on the gamespot youtube channel, it's refreshing to see that their inspiration for Overwatch was games like Half Life DM, Action Quake, Team Fortress. For me, the fun element seems to have gone from most FPS games nowadays, it's all about stroking that k/d e-peen, for something like Overwatch to come around where it's literally 100% teamwork based, is such a welcomed change, it'll definitely be in my rotation of games that I frequently play that's for sure.

Poli_Games3683d ago

Totally agree with you! There are some characters, like Parah, that make me feel like im playing doom or quake, and then Junkrat makes it feel a bit more like Team Fortress. Ugh this game is so great, why am i here?! Im going back to playing it now! xD

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing37d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit37d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing37d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9237d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
