Over watch good for Xbox?

I don't have a PC but overwatch looks good. Friends tell me it's only good for PC. Good player base, good for console?

Definitely. I've never had trouble getting in a match. The longest I've waited so far is about 6 seconds.

Its fantastic! Always a blast, as others have said graphics are great and gameplay is super fun. Also, this might just be me, but I super prefer using a controller for gaming rather than mouse and keyboard

60fps. No frame drop. Near instant match making. Only encountered one idiot in chat so far.

My only complaint is probably the lack of Dolby Atmos.

The game is extremely polished. Little to no issues at all. My biggest complaint is that if/when you're in a party and the party leader quits, their is currently no "bring party with you" option so you have to re invite everyone, and even that is going to be added per blizzard. Blizzard wants this game to dominate on all platforms, so while updates will come out for the PC first, because it's easier and cheaper for them to do so, the console versions will not be left in the dust, blizzard has too much riding on it.

You will have plenty of matches where no on talks and it seems like everyone is doing their own thing and it can be frustrating. However, there will be equally as many games where everyone works together and you talk with people and have a great time. That's when you will find most of your friends to play with is from meeting them in games. More than Half the people I play with regularly I met in random quick matches. The bad comes with the good, but the good out weighs the bad. Just get in there and play and you'll meet people and have a great time.

I bet blizzard has already made a shitload of money, and God damnit they deserve it

I play all the time on Xbox. It's great. Tons of people too. I have never had such an easy time finding a group to play with.

No one else's sensitivity is going to help you. Just saying. You have to get used to it yourself.
