A team of astronauts aboard a space station find themselves alone after a scientific experiment causes Earth to disappear. When a space shuttle appears, the space station crew must fight for survival following their horrible discovery. This intriguing sci-fi movie seemingly wasn’t intended to be a Cloverfield movie but it certainly is one now, potentially converted into one similar to how Dan Trachtenberg’s 10 Cloverfield Lane was made into a successful Cloverfield anthology spinoff in 2016. Either way, Cloverfield or not, we’re psyched about this sci-fi space thriller from J.J. Abrams’ Bad Robot production comp
Round 1 of both the upper and lower brackets will be best of three; every round after that, save for the Grand Final, will be the best of five matches. The Grand Final is a best of seven match and will determine who will win the cash, trophy, and that spot at the HGC Finals. If you want to see what the bracket looks like, you can check it on the HGC websi
For those who are just jumping into the world of HotS eSports — or really any eSport in general — it may seem overwhelming. You may be wondering who the best (and worst) teams are, what is the importance of this tournament, or what the tournament actually
Shovel Knight was released back in 2014 but it just wasn’t enough. Luckily, Yacht Club Games came out with a whole new storyline and adventure centered around Plague Knight with Shovel Knight: Plague of Shadows. In it we’re playing as one of the bad guys as we go off to do bad guy things, but is Plague Knight really all that bad? He’s definitely one of the most interesting characters in the MOBA game esports news and ditching the shovel in favor of potions and explosives is a great change of pace. Altering the story to fit Plague Knight is a great addition to the classic NES-style platformer. Playing through all the same levels we’re used to but as a different character bring a new perspective to the world. We can only hope every knight will get their chance in the spotlight.
On the other side is Team Octalysis, a team that has struggled throughout the season. They did place 3rd at the HGC – Phase 1 NA Pro League this year, but with Team Dignitas as its first opponent, I don’t see them staying on the upper bracket for l
Again, Pokémon is my favorite series and without any title in 2015, I found Yo-Kai Watch to be an excellent substitute. Comparing the two is definitely easy but after playing Yo-Kai Watch and watching the cartoon, it’s worth noting Yo-Kai Watch can stand on its own. The mix of kooky characters is great and each one having its own personality makes the game a unique experience. Yo-Kai Watch is a wonderful RPG for those in search of something that’s just plain fun. I would consider this game as my best 3DS title of the year.
League of Legends allows for small tweaks to the player’s experience with their champion. The rune system (soon to be revamped and replaced) allows champions to begin the game with small stat boosts. By taking masteries, a champion receives gradual increases to their effectiveness, sometimes in the form of unique passive abilities to structure one’s gameplay aro
While League may be quicker and flashier, Dota 2 is a little more complicated, keeping many more facets from the original Dota . Yet, these qualities also continue to speak to their differing levels of success. In short, perhaps sales are the only way to substantiate the claim that a simpler, flashier game is bet
Tempo Storm has proven that they are one of the top teams by getting 1st during Phase 1 of the NA Pro League. However, they fell short during the Western Clash – Phase 1 and HGC Mid-Season Brawl by placing in 3rd and 4th, respectively. They definitely have the potential to win: with the addition of ViN in the lineup, maybe they can turn that aro
Some interesting quick observations: Dwayne Johnson’s name keeps popping up, there are six hotly anticipated movies in March, before the traditional summer blockbuster season even begins, and there are more DC branded and Marvel Studios movies in theaters than any other y
Dota 2 takes a different approach. Valve has a huge array of cosmetic options to personalize the player’s experience. They can be dropped at the end of matches, traded, or wagered. Every hero can change each individual piece of their wardrobe. Players can design their own pieces of equipment. Garments can have their names changed, and items can even be socketed with gems that display signatures or statistics. Maybe League of Legends will allow its players to change the look of their wards, but Dota 2 has this and more; with changeable announcers, taunts, and music, to name a few of its customization opti
With 2016 behind us, it’s time to explore the slate of exciting movies opening in theaters over the next 12 months – some that we’ve waited a very long time for and can’t wait to see! There’s a new Star Wars , more high profile superhero movies than ever before, several long-awaited adaptations and sequels, and much, much more making up our list of the most anticipated movies of 20
