    If you aren't familiar with the product, it is easy to miss the $40 option. I typed "overwatch" and no where did I see it made obvious on the price difference. Marketing seems to be pushing the 60 version. I'm not screaming outrage, but this does seem to fall into that grey area of marketing shenanigans.

    I see a lot of uninformed parents falling for this.

    Really like the shorts. I realize now that I would probably play the shit out of an Overwatch RPG.

    Yeah, it's a shame TITAN never got fully realized. If it was going to be like World of Warcraft but set in the Overwatch Universe....we have lost out on greatness.

    I am enjoying the crap outta OW though. Unfortunately, no cross platform. My son has it on XBOX One and I have for PC.

    Tonight I became one of the 100 top players in the Americas server for Zarya.

    I average 2.8 medals with her per game (1.25 gold) and finish with a card at the end of the game 85% of the time.

    why exactly does her appearing with a mask say anything about the state of gaming? There's plenty of reasons she might wear a mask that has nothing whatsoever to do with the state of gaming, she might simply be shy, or think it adds mystique like a luchador, or (with good reason) be concerned that someone might be able to figure out who and where she is with a picture and potentially wish her ill.

    I'm going with the later as Koreans can take gaming way to seriously.

    given that she got death threats from one of the goons she embarrassed, it seems perfectly reasonable to me that she'd want to hide her identity. And that she has to have that concern is fucking shameful.
