Rocket League: The Best Game Ever?

  No, Rocket League is not the best game ever, but... that doesn't mean its still not a fantastic time.  Admittedly first I didn't know what to think about Rocket League when it originally came out.  From afar it appeared to be another strictly-multiplayer eccentric game, and all though there's nothing wrong with an always online title, its not for everyone.  The game was slowly growing a following at the initial launch, but everything changed when the PlayStation store attacked!  With the online store's outrageous deals and monthly free titles for PlayStation Plus subscribers. Who would of thought that putting a title that critics at the time could not stop praising about, up on the most popular sold console this generation for FREE would have done so well (he said sarcastically).  So I downloaded the game, and immediately I was surprised by the amount of content in placed.  The video game features a robust online community with an amazing stack-load of options. 

 What makes Rocket League so great, is essentially anyone can play it.  And even though that may sound "off-putting" for many gamers; hear me out.  For me I'm a Trophy Enthusiasts (not a whore) this game will test your skills to the limit, if you let it.  However, in terms of trophies this game is like beating a blind person in chess, its almost as if the developers think to themselves like... "What's a trophy?" Oh well more gamerscore for me I suppose. 
  The game is amazing for casual players such as myself, due to the player matching features.  Now this isn't to mean the game is all simply willy-nilly, Rocket League has become a pretty substantial e-sport for a reason, and that particular reason is physics.  The game heavy revolves around physics and although it may not appear like it, when you're there in the minute-to-minute every move/jump/thrust could result in whether-or-not one wins the match.  It should be mentioned that there is a somewhat single-player aspect to the game, depending on ones definition of a campaign of course. Besides the training sessions and co-op parts, there is a really neat tournament mode within Rocket Leagues many diverse modes.  How diverse?  It may may look like this game is basically just a bunch miniature cars driving around a soccer ball, but its much more than that.  The player can also drive around a basket-ball or a hockey-puck, that is to say unless you go into the settings and go nuts with the options creating an exorbitant fun time in the all out insanity which is Rocket League.

Tips & Tricks: Don't worry about the trophies you'll get them trust me.
