Final Fantasy XIV is on PC, PS3, & PS4 though I have heard rumblings that the dev team wants to discontinue PS3 support because of limitations of the PS3. There is no official plan or annoucment to discontinue PS3 support.
Hmm, is there a MOBA thread on Stimhack? Lots of MOBAs on the list so my 2 cents:
Anyone check out that new one called Paragon? Cross platform for PC and PS4, pretty fun, biggest problem right now is that no one knows how to play the game! The items you buy throughout a match are literally a deck constructed outside of the match, you collect cards through random packs like Hearthstone (except I think you only unlock them through in-game XP), and frankly it’s a lot of fun figuring out how to optimize a deck around what you have available. There’s also a really cool mechanic where you place ‘Harvesters’ down on the map that slowly drip resources in. You have to go collect from them, and the enemy can come and smash them to pieces and place their own. Overall it’s a cool game and I want more people to play it!
MMO with a solid free2play model (you literally get the whole base game, what people played for years before the expansion came out), and no sub cost. - PvE: Minimal grind for gear (because of standardized stats, no need to hope for a good item level roll for acceptable gear). Server choice doesn’t matter, as you can play across servers seamlessly. Only thing that matters is NA vs EU (I am on Yak’s Bend, an NA server, so plz pick NA! :P) - PvP: You can literally make a new character and go into pvp and be on the same level as everyone else (auto-max level, standardized gear, switch builds at-will between matches). All skill and 0 Grind. Never will you feel “arg, I lost to that guy because his gear was better”.
I have played most facets of the game at one time or another. Started as a PvPer, came back for World vs World, came back to PvE. To me, this seems like the perfect MMO for people who don’t have a ton of time to pour into a “new MMO”, while still retaining the feeling of progression via cosmetics / skins. Happy to answer any more specific questions anyone may have.
P.S. If you want to hang out and talk video games, we have a slack channel, #esports
It’s a team based space combat strategy game that typically plays in 30-60 minutes. One player has a commander role, and he orders drones out to collect He3 (money), and buys tech or forward bases. The other players focus on ship to ship or ship to drone combat. The end objective is to destroy your enemies’ major bases.
It’s freeware at this time - usually attendance is half decent on weekends.
If anyone wants to play HotS, I already do and it sounds like Chill/Josh may be interested.

There’s an amateur league called Chair League. It’s something to work toward and seems like it could be rewarding if we can get a dedicated 5 man team going.
