    Mainstream gaming outlets would disagree with you. I do agree that Uncharted is more GOTY than Overwatch is, but then again, 2016 was a good year for gaming industry overall.

    I stopped playing competitive games a couple of years ago, too time-consuming.
    What was your personal GOTY in 2016?

    I'd say it's split between Uncharted 4 and Dark Souls 3 for a AAA title. My favorite indie of the year is easily Inside.

    And I would split it between Uncharted 4 and The Blood and Wine (The Witcher 3 DLC).

    As much as I'm in love with Witcher 3, I can't think of a DLC as the game of the year. Even if it has more content than many stand alone games.

    Was going to add some this month, but seeing it breaking to $53 does not inspire confidence. Probably not the best idea to buy a stock that rose 42% in a couple of months. Is there any particular reason they keep going up? Because their earnings do not correspond well with their shareprice in my opinion.

    The stock is legitimately overpriced.

    I was thinking the same, might sell at 55, buy on a pullback. This has been my favorite stock this last year.

    Hey guys I'm looking into this stock. Seems to have been on a tear lately. As a gamer, however I know their Call Of Duty WW2 is going to sell like hot cakes. I'm just looking for the right entry. Are any of you holding through ER today?

    From intergalactic warfare back to WWII? Fans must have been hungry.

    Also, it seems like Activision wants to take some of that hype cake away from Battlefield 1. But we shall see, even though I gave up on the series a while ago, its dynamics still interest me.

    Destiny 2 PC will operate through Blizzard app. Too bad since the game looks quite mediocre so far.

    I'm just glad more and more developers move away from Steam.

    From Steam to the rest of a hundred different platforms there is. Not that it matters though.

    It does matter to publishers. Gabe takes some 30% of undeserved income off every copy sold. That's freaking insane.

    I prefer Steam to be honest

    Most people do, because they built themselves a collection of games there and are now reluctant to leave it all behind. That's understandable.
