The idea behind the game is sound; The rivalry between drivers and teams in real motorsports is why we motorsports fans watch the races after all. It could make for a very interesting single player career if done right. The acting in the scenes they showed off were a bit... iffy though, but who knows. Kind of excited that someone gives a stab at this again and Codemasters would be the studio to do something like this.

The actual game looks like your typical Codemasters arcade racer though. It's usually fine in short bursts, but nothing I'm going back to, unlike their Dirt Rally series that rewards learning the mechanics.

Extremely sad news! I'm gutted! You guys created ace content and it feels like a lifetime ago since Jeff started up Giant Bomb with you guys. It's been one hell of a run, but all things must come to an end. Best of luck to all of you in the future!

As for the future of Giant Bomb, I hope Jeff, Jan and Jason decides to just run the site out of Jeff's garage. I miss the scrappy days of the Petaluma basement office.

Overwatch really has it's ups and downs, WTFs and totally-saw-that-coming moments. Have you captured anything you want to share?

I'll start with this. One of the weirdest matches I've played. 1:42 minutes on Temple of Anubis. I'm usually pretty fast with Soldier, but I could barely keep up with my team on this one.

Nah. You get matched with people of the same skill level (most of the time) so everyone is going to be n00bs when you start playing. Each character has a difficulty rating, so I suggest that you pick an easy hero.

You can't play competitive before level 25, so Quick Play is where most people go to just learn the game and have fun. You'll have the occasional try-hard, but you usually don't spend that much time with the same people. Just ignore the try-hards.

Last but not least, try not the that the game seriously if you play with random people. No matter how good you are, some heroes will always be weaker against other heroes. Sometimes, you will just end up in situations that you can only laugh off. Overwatch is not a one-man-show, so if your team doesn't care, just play for the hell of it. If you play with 5 other people over voice chat and everyone knows what they're doing, then you can take it more seriously.

So yeah, just jump in. It's a heck of a fun game.

Nah, probably not. Battleborn seems like a time investment and I don't have all the free time in the world. At least not with a game that seems kind of mediocre.

There used the be a time when Fallout and Elder Scrolls were two completely things and I liked both for different reasons. While I still enjoyed Fallout 3 for what it was, Bethesda's take on Fallout is not what I'm looking for. Obsidian did an immensly better job with New Vegas, a game I initially brushed off as just a lazy expansion. But despite looking very familiar, NV felt like Fallout where Fallout 3 felt more like The Elder Scrolls.

Though I'm glad Fallout lives on, it's hard to distinguish between Elder Scrolls and Fallout under Bethesda's banner. But if I had to pick between them, I'll wander the wasteland any day instead of hanging out with elves.

Fallout 1. I remember playing a demo of Fallout 1 when I had a subscription for PC Gamer. The demo featured Junktown and I played the demo several times, going through the different scenarios. I was so impressed I ended up buying the full game.

Any modders in the house wanting to take a shot at fixing this game?
