Overwatch beta is coming back online this February 9th

The delay between beta tests has been slightly longer this time around since Blizzard was hard at work on adding an entirely new game mode and maps after many players complained about repetition in the previous tests.

However, the wait is now over and the Overwatch beta is set to re-open on February 9th. Those that are lucky enough to get in can expect to see a reworked progression system, a new game mode and two maps, a bunch of balance changes and an update to the Private Game system.

Hearthstone's spring update is adding a Standard & Wild format

In a rather surprising blog post Blizzard announced that they will be splitting up Hearthstone's ranked mode in to Standard & Wild leagues which are essentially a straight up copy of MTG's Standard & Legacy.

Besides the two new leagues the spring update will bring with it more deck slots (!), the removal of Naxx & GVG, a rebalance of the classic card set and a bunch of brand new cards. Here's a short overview of what exactly is happening:

Origin is offering Need For Speed: Most Wanted for free

Origin's "On The House" program is essentially cheap advertising for the platform but I don't think anyone can really complain about getting a free game every few months.

This time around its Criterion's 2012 Need for Speed: Most Wanted whose single player campaign is a bit lackluster but the multiplayer is as excellent as ever. Here's the trailer if you need to refresh your memory:
