First Person Shooter Best Of Decade

Part of that is introducing a battle pass, allowing you to unlock a slew of cosmetics without sifting through endless loot boxes. But some heroes are locked to the battle pass, making it a grind to get the newest releases, even if they are free. This is a significant shift in what Overwatch is all about - experimentation; Now you have to spend hours to unlock a character to try them, and you might not even enjoy them enough to warrant that investm


I know some other games do this. Valorant and League of Legends are both successful, and both require heroes (agents and champions, respectively) to be unlocked from the off. But crucially the original Overwatch did not, and that was a major part of the appeal. This unlocking system was at one time commonplace in the fighting genre, until studios realised this was no fun and served no purpose. Overwatch 2 seems to be deliberately making the game less fun in the hopes of ensnaring players to keep playing until their favourite hero is let out of jail. A more confident hand would give you the heroes from the start and trust that it’s good enough for you to stick aro


The 2020 season of the Overwatch League is in full swing and will continue to ramp things up during its second weekend in Philadelphia. The opening weekend showcased some incredible matches and an even deeper pool of talent than ever before. We predict that these are players to watch throughout the second weekend of the Overwatch Lea


We've come a long way from the early days of first-person shooters. But with so many to choose from over the past ten years (including something like 387 different Call of Duty titles), which games stood out most to us? Glad you as


Edgerunners is a new anime set in the world of Cyberpunk 2077, the highly-anticipated game that had an infamously rocky and controversial launch. It was losing players and support fast. But this new anime has sparked new life into the game, as it now boasts over a million players a day, and the general conversations around Cyberpunk 2077 have shifted in tone - people seem to be swinging back around to enjoy this gem in the rou


While it’s a great thing to advocate for, it’s somewhat upsetting considering that smaller streamers banded together for #ADayOffTwitch to raise awareness for the hate raids being held against marginalised creators, but no big names joined in, as Stacey not


Overwatch 2 is free to play, so in theory it’s not too much of an issue that it’s an entirely new game. Splatoon and Call of Duty both charge full price for their updates on what came before, and Overwatch 2 at least avoids that. But it doesn’t mitigate how dated Overwatch 2’s structure already feels, and how much that contrasts with how the initial game felt at launch. Overwatch is a hero shooter, and part of its popularity has been the affection for its heroes, not to mention how differently each of its roster plays. There are characters with pistols, shotguns, bazookas, ice blasters, revolvers, sniper rifles, mech suits, and bows and arrows, but whatever the weapon is, Blizzard seems dead set on aiming them all directly at its f


All the while, Twitch streamers are taking a stance against gambling, while Xbox brings HowLongToBeat support into its library to let you know what time investment you’re making before you dive in. Speaking of diving i


ItsSliker admitted to scamming over $200,000 from his followers for his gambling addiction, sparking platform-wide controversy on Twitch. Gambling has long been a problem for the streaming site, becoming the latest in a long line of ‘metas’, and now several high-profile streamers have called on Twitch to ban them en ma


Before all of the controversy, Blizzard did right by fans by unleashing Overwatch upon the gaming world. From merchandise, to charity, to esports, to the player community, it’s hard to deny the impact that Overwatch has had since its release, even prior to the #BoycottBlizzard movement. The game also has the best healer in the history of gaming: Mercy. If Mercy is on your team, there’s no way you can lose. After all, "Heroes never d


Eqo was a major factor during Philadelphia's Grand Finals run in the 2018 season of the overwatch 2 tier list|https://overwatch2Fans.Com/ League. His versatility and smart decision making paired well with superstar DPS teammate Jae-hyeok "Carpe" Lee making them one of the best duos at the time. Both had a downturn in 2019 thanks to unfavorable metas and stuck on heroes neither quite knew how to play. If the Fusion want to make a deep run this year, Eqo will need to play to his 2018 potential. Let's see what happens over the weekend and hopefully he won't be stuck in Mei jail like he was at the end of 2


Typically, when games try and tell their in-game story outside of the game, it’s because the narrative is a bit naff. I don’t mean stuff like the Life is Strange or Tomb Raider comics, which both expand upon an existing story, I mean the likes of Outriders’ recent short there to give backstory and establish the lore of the game. Maybe just... do that in the game? But again, Overwatch is an exception to the rule. Overwatch’s character reveals feel like you’re reading a secret diary, it’s like you’re being let in on something special, not having a crumpled up piece of paper with the word ‘BaCkStOrY’ written on it in crayon - this, by the way, is exactly what watching that Outriders short felt l
