For a moment I would like to return back to the image of my bedroom. There’s still my Nintendo Switch, my gaming PC, my Xbox One, and my iPhone. And yes, all of these devices still provide all of their own distinct, unique experiences. Each of these devices still has games that are best suited for it. And yet, after playing Legend of Solgard , I’m forced to re-contextualize my iPhone not as a phone that can play games, but rather, a type of gaming platform in its own ri
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
This zip-up jacket hoodie will look great on your favorite Overwatch fan whether they’re just chilling at home or going at it in Blizzard’s upcoming Overwatch eSports League . The hoodie is 80 percent cotton and officially licensed by J!NX. Currently available in small through XXX-Large, the hoodie has mostly positive reviews on Amazon, with many noting its lightweight and soft inter
I looked back at the screen. 1-1. What is this?! How did they score? Why? What on Earth is going on?! Half-time came, and I was invited to rearrange my team. I didn’t know what to do — as already mentioned, the MOBA Game ranking guide’s stats are incredibly confusing, and I was still reeling from having conceded a goal. I changed the team’s play style to ‘aggressive’, and started the second h
AHIII: Blizzard had contacted me last year about being a caster for Heroes of the Dorm and that was a dream come true. I like to think they were happy enough with my performance last year to invite me out this year (laughs) . I, very much, hope to be invited to do more things; I would love to. At this point, casting is in my DNA now. I got into it for personal reasons and now I can see an avenue where I potentially could see this more as an ongoing profess
Each match in the regular season is the best of 5 games. Essentially, the first team to win three games wins the match. Game W-L is indicative of a team’s game record, which explains the larger numbers. G +/- is the number of wins minus the number of losses. This will produce a positive or negative number depending on the team’s Game
Randomly pointing at various options and hoping for the best, I pushed through the confusion and found myself taking control of Leeds, a team that I didn’t know much about. Again, the list of options was incredibly daunting. Who do I choose to make up my team? How do I train them? In which position should I have them play? I just wanted to get into a match and watch my team play, how on Earth was I supposed to know the rest of this st
RISK: Starcraft Collector’s Edition Board Game is a uniquely Blizzard take on the classic strategy game. Just like in the video game, players must choose between the Terrans, Protoss or Zerg and then head into battle in an attempt to gain control of the Koprulu Sector. While base-building in Starcraft the video game can get complicated at times, this board game follows traditional RISK rules, meaning anyone ages 10 and up can jump right in. The Starcraft theme touches every part of this game, including the highly-detailed custom playing pie
Which is why I was unsure about reviewing Championship Manager 70s Legends for the iPhone. Its connection to soccer made it an unhappy prospect, and I went in with low expectations, praying I would complete it quickly, and move on with my l
Despite having the hallmarks and aesthetic flourishes of a mobile game, Legend of Solgard feels strikingly more comprehensive than other titles that can fit into your pocket. After fighting the game’s first mini-boss, an ice creature that changes locations making him harder to hit, I was kind of amazed at the level of nuance present in the game’s design. At times Legend of Solgard feels more Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle than Bejeweled; it feels like a mobile game that was designed with the dedication of a full-fledged console game. Regardless of the wide net the game casts, it’s clear that anyone who genuinely enjoys playing turn-based strategy games will enjoy something about Legend of Solga
After being named the Game of the Year at the 2015 Game Developers Conference, it looks like Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor may be getting a Game of the Year edition. While there’s not yet any official word on the edition, Warner Bros. did submit the game for a Game of the Year classification to the Australian Classification Bo
The independent game has received strong support among gamers and shows that the point-and-click genre is still alive and kicking. In fact, independent games of all genres continue to receive positive reviews and make strong sales among gamers, showing that it doesn’t take a huge team and millions of dollars in ads to make a game successful. And thanks to services like Steam Green Light and Kickstarter, independent developers are able to create buzz for their games on a tight bud
