PUBG is out of Early access, Ubisoft is offering Watchdogs for fee, and the Steam holiday/ winter sale is out now.

Picked up Company of Heroes 2 and I gotta say it is pretty damn cool. Very different than your typical RTS. They put a lot of effort into this game. PUBG is much better with the update, but you will still get steamrolled out of the blue. At least the kill cam is working so you can see what happened.

Love CoH, but the microtransactions put a damper on things. Bridge maps are my favorite when you can strongpoint them and go to town

Just downloaded Fortnite last night (it's free) it's pretty damn fun. It's like hunger games.

Also downloaded Star Wars Battlefront 2 for $35.. didn't get around to playing it yet but the beta was entertaining.

I have to find a suspense horror game to play with buddies over some drinks. Used to do that a few years ago with Condemned. Getting drunk and playing a horror game with friends is surprisingly hilarious.

Any of you gaming guys ever hear of this happening to someone you know? The Swatting, now the dead part.

A 28-year-old man was shot and killed by a Wichita police officer after a reported hostage situation call last night. At a press conference this afternoon, Wichita police said it was a false call meant to draw SWAT officers to the scene, an act known as “swatting.” It appears to have been linked to an argument over Call of Duty, although police have not confirmed that.

Swatting has been going on for a several years, that I have known of....first time I have heard of a COD argument angle.

Like @Kraut783 stated this has been something that has gone on for a few years now mainly being used against popular streamers on platforms such as Twitch.tv it's meant as a prank, but the entire thing is asinine. If you're interested there are compilations on YouTube of people having this done to them, I remember seeing a city block be shut down and helicopters and swat teams surround a highrise because of it.

Apparently the person who was killed had a known history of "swatting" other people, it still doesn't excuse this happening but when you play stupid games you win stupid prizes. What's infuriating to me though is that he wasn't even involved in the original incident and he lost his life over $1. I hope the two who were the cause of this whole thing are prosecuted to the fullest extent possible.

It was only a matter of time before that stupid practice got someone killed. And the guy who was shot had nothing to do with the event at all! I hope they throw the book at this asshole.

I've also heard of cases similar to "Swatting" where someone sends a prostitute or drug dealer over to a streamer's house, with the unexpected guest expecting payment for goods/services.

This fucking guy - he’ll be fun in prison.

I’m sure the police appreciate his confession on a freeking YouTube channel interview.

"Swatters" should be face-raped with a garden weasel.

Hate because I pray to whatever powers that be, that this guy finds himself in prison for a long time and that no joy or happiness, even the smallest amount, ever comes for him. That his life is met with never ending sorrow and heartbreak.


'It's my personal belief that I didn't cause someone to die,' a man claiming to be Barriss said Friday during an interview on the DramaAlert YouTube channel.

'Of course I was involved,' he admitted to DramaAlert. The interview with the YouTube channel appeared to happen before police arrested the gamer Friday night.

Yeah no, I have zero sympathy for this. May he rot away in jail.

If anyone has xbox live my GT is RangerR0b93 (the o in rob is a zero) if you wanna play cod or fortnite.

XBOX Live (gold) has Gears of War 1-3 & Judgement (on demand) on sale for about $5.00 each.

Dungeons 3 is a pretty good RTS along the resource gathering, tech tree building style (think starcraft or age of empires style game). Lot of humor in it too. I mean one of my nagas (snake people) was named Kiimkar'dashian and one of my imps was jayzee... And I got to toss them both into the sacrificial altar!
