Front and center, of course, is the long-awaited Overwatch beta, which you can join by... well, hoping. If you aren't in it at this point, you'll just kind of have to wait and hope that you get added...

Arisen are "the most powerful of the scouts," due to the sacrifice they make by taking their own life each day and rising again to serve their realm. Arisen may also change their size at will. Wisps are the "fastest and hardest to...

You know what I really need to complete my Grand Theft Auto Online avatar's look? A Zombie Liberals from the Midwest t-shirt. Fortunately for me, Rockstar is handing them out this weekend, along with two other t-shirts that have a Halloween twist.
