    The newly-released Rocket League is literally the best sports game I've ever ever played, a crazy combination of cars and soccer that works better than you ever thought it could. Just released on PS4 and Steam and featuring cross-play between the two platforms, it is also FREE for PS4 users this month (it's the free PS+ title), so for PS4 owners there is literally no good reason not to check it out. For PC, it'll set you back $20... well worth it. I can't tell you how much fun I've had playing it the past two nights.

    Seriously, go get it.

    Played about an hour last night. Its basically just a revamped version of the original PS3 Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle Cars, but that isn't a bad thing.

    That game could ruin friendships.

    Eh, it's on Steam, and it doesn't have high system reqs. Just get it there, plug in your Xbox controller, and away you go...

    Looks fun but seems like it'd lose it's novelty after a while.

    Not trying to be "that guy" but that save is kinda routine IMO.

    This, on the other hand, is some other planet kinda s***.

    Had some fun with it the other night with some buddies.

    Went online and were wrecking but came up against a guy that had two AI controlled partners and got destroyed. I figured there were enought people playing that AI bots were not necessary

    I buckled down and bought it. At least I had $6 in my Steam wallet from selling CS:GO skins. Anyone wanna play?
