Ever wanted to watch an older man act out your favorite emotes from Overwatch using an arsenal of Nerf guns and household items? That's a strange thing to carry a torch for but, you know what? You're in luck. The same father-son duo that brought us that Street Fighter 2 victory poses video has recorded a new compilation for Overwatch. It's fantastic.

Dear old dad seems to especially enjoy doing Soldier 76's emote. Must be that special kinship shared between dads and dad-like characters. For my part, I could watch him do the Lucio dance in a foam Statue of Liberty crown on all day.

If you like to see Overwatch characters doing Overwatch things, check out this week's best Overwatch moments. And read up on some leaks that indicate a big Overwatch anniversary event may be on the way.

Former GamesRadar+ News Writer

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and was formerly a staff writer at GamesRadar+.
