It's not often I pay more than $10 or $15 for a game, but this is the first one in a long time that I decided it was worth it. I"m not a Blizzard fan, but this game is a lot of fun. They offered this game free for a weekend and it's really easy to just pick up and play. Load times are quick, there's so much variety to each character, and Blizzard Entertainment keeps adding updates and special seasonal unlocks that keep the game fresh. Bought to play with friends and looking forward to some competitive gaming again.

I don't get a ton of time to devote to the game but still, there are several hero characters that I have a lot of fun playing and feel that I have contributed to team victory. Beautiful maps to fight on, too.

What fun! That's something I never expected to say about a multi-player shooter. Overwatch has a great variety of heroes that enable many playstyles with a decent matchmaking system not to mention the fun rewards in the form of player skins, icons and emotes that you get in the loot boxes, simply for playing! Very happy I gave this game a chance, something I normally wouldn't play, I am totally addicted and have been neglecting my RPGs so I can get in a few more games of Overwatch to unlock that next loot box. Great fun!

Honestly I was a bit underwhelmed with this game. It looks really great, and runs very smooth, and I suppose that it is really good at what it is trying to be good at, that is, an huge online multiplayer shooter with no necessary campaign. Lots of people really like it, and I can see why one would, but this isn't the game for me. First of all, the game in my opinion, is too repetitive. Most games are in one way or another. But there really isn't any story, and it all just felt empty after a bit, like, I was fighting clones of myself/team for what? For some the repetition and lack of story is fine, and I can understand how people really like leveling up and getting really good at certain characters. It is fun, especially at first, but after a dozen or so hours playing, I personally felt like it sort of lost its appeal. It sort of reminds me a sports game in some ways, like Rocket League almost, if that makes sense. For those wanting to invest heavily in the game, getting really skilled at characters and game play, I can see that the fun is found in getting good. But I would rather spend my limited gaming time enjoying a game with more story and purpose. Something that I can be entertained by and get lost in. Second, matchmaking was an issue for me... I found this hit or miss. Some nights I would find lot's of games, others I fared much worse. Sometimes this was frustrating, just sitting around waiting for a game. And honestly, the community, for me as a new player, felt sort of toxic. Not nearly as bad as other multiplayer games, not even close, but still uncomfortable at times. Third, and this is probably a big issue for many like me, solo queue was kind of a bust. I would say that if you have a lot of friends to play (and communicate) with, the team aspect would be much better. But as a solo random player, some games felt all over the place, unorganized, and frustrating. Overall, I knew what I was getting myself into, and for the right kind of gamer (especially somebody in a group), this is a really great, polished, and fun game. I can see why this game is so highly rated (see Metacritic), but now I can better understand why the user score on that same site is so low. Overwatch will work out just fine for many people, and I get why the community is so huge, but for somebody like me, not ready to invest heavily in this, I will spend my time elsewhere. Trading this game in today.

This is an excellent and well balanced team based arena shooter. Just be prepared to not have a single player campaign.

In this all ages mutliplayer PvP game you get to choose from a variety of characters, each unique with different weapons and abilities. Find the character that matches your playstyle and take the fight to the enemy! This is not the only feature of which may interest you, as there is a ton of customization options and fun, well designed environments to explore!
(The only thing in this game I was disappointed about was that there's no real storyline, apart from the trailers and animations.)
