Flying Car Football

When I first heard about Rocket League, I thought the premise was a bit of a joke. Then I played the game, and I couldn't have been more wrong.

This is one of the few games that got my heart pumping with every "kick" of the ball.

The online ranked matchmaking system is fantastic now that 'Season 2' is underway. There are 15 different ranks, and each rank has 5 divisions so you can see how far away you are from making the next rank. The excitement from scoring a goal in overtime or saving your team in the dying seconds is incredible. You can earn these ranks in 1v1, 2v2, 3v3 and 4v4.

There are also unranked modes and a great offline season mode against very intelligent AI. The new arenas also spice things up as you can now play in a variety of stages, each with its own complexities and physics.

I can't recommend this enough, and for the price, you can't go wrong!
