The highest highs and the most miserable lows. Dota 2 is punishment when you're learning it and absolutely sublime when your friends work as a team to wipe out the opposition. Dota 2 will take hundreds of hours to learn and (almost) every single one of them is just fun. Also, its Free.

The Last of Us
