10 Video Games That Cost ALL YOUR FRIENDS
7. Rocket League
Football games in general bring out the inner neanderthal in us all, but that’s somehow amplified even more when you strap a rocket to it.
Rocket League is one of the most compulsively addictive multiplayer games of the last decade - an ingenious fusion of football and racing which has become a genuine sport in its own right.
And while playing with a few friends - either as teammates or rivals - seems grand in theory, things have a tendency to get heated fast.
Nothing will wear your friendship to the nub quite like getting stomped 10-0 by the other team, all because your friends failed to appreciate the fundamentals of defending the goal.
Granted, maneuvering the rocket-powered cars is about as intuitive as drifting a milk float through treacle, but all the same, a lack of chemistry on the pitch can leave you stewing with rage long after the gaming session is over.
And if you decide to take your friends on, well, Rocket League freely gives you the opportunity to raise each other’s blood pressure.
Tuck in a belter of a goal and sarcastically spam “What a save!!!” on the chat screen to your rivals, because what’s multiplayer gaming without a side order of toxic trolling?
