I just got my ps4 copy.

The guy at gamestop gave me 3 Winston figures and was giving handfuls to people who were picking the game up.

How do ps4 goons usually coordinate games? The goon community on PSN or discord? I feel like the forum is too slow for catching people

Does anyone else get motion sickness from watching Overwatch videos/streams? I can't even get through a ten-minute video without feeling mildly ill

Yea, I find them very hard to follow. After playing a few games on the Open Beta weekend, I at least understand the objectives for a couple of the maps. The gameplay, camera and hero swapping, and fast pace makes it pretty rough though.

Luckily my recently promoted supervisor is a huge video game nerd so she knows I'm not working cause I just keep sending her Overwatch videos. She even said I can leave when I get the Amazon notification the game has arrived.

So based on the crude death rate of the world, and the number of players who played the beta, ~2935 people who played the beta have died before release.

Why are people so obsessed with overwatch beta player death statistics

I've never seen this with any other game
