    Heroes of the Storm Review - Totally Not A MOBA

    What does this even mean? First-of-all, yes each hero has 2 Ults, but that doesn't make it too hard to memorise, considering you don't have to memorise every hero item progression or items overall. You also get a try mode with every hero so if you can't spend a minute there to check out all...

    Calling BS on Microsoft Xbox One salvage

    To all people defending XboxOne, get you arguments straight. a) "Infinite-power of the cloud" - 300'000 servers, cloud computation etc. Verdict: BS. There is no correlation with the number of servers and their computational capacity. The power of the cloud is very limited, and any...

    Why the XBone is a good console

    Let's just clear up a few things. There's no benefit for the consumer from being always online, or, especially, for 24-hour checks. None. If you have perfect internet, good for you, but Xbox One will not do anything better than PS4 because it's always online. This check-in requirement is...

    Gamers Without Internet Can Stick With Xbox 360, Says Microsoft

    Personally, it's not about the "incovenience" of 24- hour checks. I have perfect internet connection here in Switzerland, so I wouldn't have any trouble getting checked. But as a principle, this is asinine. You're asked to tolerate something, which limits your control over the console for no...

    Not to be a PS4 Buzzkill but....

    I actually enjoyed all the AC games. AC3 is weird, but perfectly playable and the AC4 demo looked sick. As for Watch Dogs, I'm seriously interested. It's like GTA only you're not a crazy gangster but a vigilante, that sounds much more appealing to me. Then again, to each his own. If you don't...

    Games you should really enjoy, but don't.

    Bioshock. It was supposed to be the best game ever when it came out but it just didn't grip me, neither by its setting, nor by abilities or combat. Probably not a big fan of the 60s though.

    Bioware Sucks at Story telling

    Bioware are great at creating characters and conveying tone and tension and bonds between them. Sure you might say their choices are all the same, but it's a proven system that makes you choose your own path. If Bioware games were mediocre, the really bad ending of ME3 would not have such a...

    Does the Mass Effect 3 extended cut fix what was wrong?

    No. It only fixes a small amount of really serious errors while leaving a huge gaps in logic still there. It still ruins the game.

    Ocarina of Time is... Kinda overated.

    Try to play the Original Doom and Half Life or let your teenage son/brother/whoever try to do it and see what happens. Unfortunately some games cannot evoke the same feelings as technology advances just like black and white movies (until the weird The Artist renaissance) are not something anyone...

    Poll: ME3 EC didn't fix anything

    The EC couldn't have satisfied me from the moment it became obvious that they won't change the original choices and mission. The whole sequence after London is a mess and should have been redone. The effort to cover up the plot holes is honorable, however considering the horrible gaps in...

    Poll: ME3 EC didn't fix anything

    It could but the last three games wrapped it up very nicely with tons of Codex entries so while unreal it was also believable much more so than the Force. I don't want to enter the whole Star Wars vs Star Trek genre debate here but in a nutshell Mass Effect (which is closer to Star Trek than...

    Poll: ME3 EC didn't fix anything

    Now if only they could scrap the synthesis ending, I'd be happy. It just goes so much against the lore of the series into magic territory, it just disgusts me by its mere presence even though I don't have to choose it.

    Poll: ME3 EC didn't fix anything

    That's funny I made a fan-fiction ending post right this morning. It's a tad rough but it certainly didn't take me a prohibitively long time to come up with. http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/9.380034-Unsatisfied-with-ME3-ending-and-EC#14924615: ME1 and ME2 end choices were...

    Unsatisfied with ME3 ending and EC?

    I'm up for constructive feedback on how to improve it. It's hard to come up with 10 different endings in a short time. So yes, it's a paragon/renegade ending with slight variation as it stands right now. All I was inspired with is previous Bioware work.In DA:O you were almost always a hero even...
