While the peripherals are overpriced, they're also optional for a lot of people. While I guess it depends on whether your spouse is a gamer or if you have kids,I found as an adult I rarely have friends over to play video games which means extra controllers aren't used. For me I've haven't...

Looks fun on streams, but unless they have a ton of content they aren't showing in the beta no way its worth full retail.

Underlord does seem a bit unbalanced, at least 3 of his abilities seem very strong at the moment: pit of malice as roots were made stronger this patch The aura is interesting, though it may be in part due to the meta heroes since it reduces base attack damage and we're seeing mostly agility...

Sniper reminds me of a game SingSing played this week. He went dragon lance -> aghs then started buying rapiers. He had 3 rapiers when he almost killed himself on a blademail so bought a ghost sceptre on the idea it blocks physical which turned out to work. So he sold his boots for a fourth...

Yea, but they've been frequently pausing to swap out PCs before this. I'm actually surprised Valve doesn't provide tournaments a dedicated server in a box to avoid any patching or connectivity problems. Send some employee to carry it if security is a concern.

So I went into the attic for 3-hours after the pause by n0tail at top and came back to the panel for the game haha. The handful of fans left must be some hardcore dota2 fans, its 12am on a Sunday. Man is it echoing in the arena. Bit mind boggling the number of PC issues they've had this...

Yep I realize why (also 3 TP points means much less delay) ;) Its just an interesting evolution of the game compared to a few years ago where the offlane T1 would generally be gone by 5-8 minutes. The offlane in general has gotten significantly easier (probably more so on the radiant) with iron...

They're looking pretty dominant today.

I thought this first eg draft was going to be too cutesy but it's working surprisingly well. Machine gun on this druid. Also interesting how difficult it is to push the offlane tower. Seems like it's usually the last to fall now.

I feel like neither of these statements are true...

Not to support Japanese game makers (since I agree) but the Japanese aren't alone in rehashing crap. The we've had what like 18 call of duties and battlefields, the same sports games for 20-years, etc. etc. EA, Ubisoft, etc. have all turned turned into assembly lines creating incremental...

Someone please buy kotlguy a dictionary. I'm reminded of the big brain in Futurama being trapped in a world of spelling errors and plot holes. Also why does he constantly start asking a question then interrupt with his own rambling answer.

Then why do you call on Nintendo to bring them to the switch? They have no say in the matter.

Most Nintendo titles are disappearing from stock at stores. heck even the 3Ds People pay full price for digital content that can be taken away from them at any moment? You realize the only Nintendo IP you listed is Kid Icarus? The rest are Capcom or Konami.

I don't know anything about day9 but II don't understand how a former pro starcraft player would calibrate at 2k. I would have assumed them to have superior mechanical ability and awareness, and it would be a matter of learning the strategies and heroes.

Reports working great apparently - Its not even being off map as with the innate invisibility he can wander the map mana free (and obviously still participate in fights w/ heal), once he gets aghs its just a matter of time before the map is covered.

For me this console generation has generally been a disappointment, there really aren't that many good games compared to the prior one. Funnily, despite WiiU being regarded as having a weak library I actually have more games for it than the Xbox One.

I can't say I've really been following it but BestBuy Canada has 24 online (none in store, but that doesn't surprise me since the last time I went in games were relegated to a tiny corner) and EB Games seems to have them in about 50% of stores.

When they drag the nerds out of the back room for big presentations they like to hose them off and pay someone to dress them. Google, Apple & Microsoft all do it too. They re-used the same format for announcements too, though to their credit they did limit patting themselves on the back for how...

The 1.2.3 switch game? I guess virtual console shit? The head of Nintendo America looks like he should play a thug on the Sopranos.

There are a few things that might be interesting, but for me its only mild interest so far. However, I think I see what they are going for. There is a segment of super hardcore gamers who like imports, etc. and they seem to be hitting all the right notes there - region free, and a bunch of...

Its not the cost of the gem + quelling, its the issue that once Treant has had aghs for a little while to move on the map someone loses two inventory slots or the enemy knows all your movements and has free initiation. In theory the backpack helps, but realistically you can't be swapping the...

Tree aghs is such bullshit, they really need to make the eyes attackable as someone is forced to use two inventory to counter it unless you have a timber or a bf carry. Apparently Escape Gaming collapsed after Secret poached Khezu. New team forming as (1-5) Era, Qoijva, Trixi, H4nn1, Synderen...

Nice to see DC win a big tournament.

Probably makes more sense to fill out your lineup, make sure you have stuns, tower damage, initiation, mix of damage types. Oh.... If you aren't, carry a tp. Use it to help another lane, and I would bet people aren't holding stuns so you might be able to just port out.

Capitalist really likes the sound of his own voice. Zeus is pretty strong except when people have new BKBs. I think its also important to consider that guides & suggestions meant for high level play may not be work at lower tiers. Players aren't going to react in the same way on either side...

I'm not sure bf is as good on Ember with the way cleave was changed, I haven't seen anyone build it since the patch. Radiance is fairly common now after veil, then octarine also at least in pubs.

Referring to the NP vs Fnatic game ;)

You know you have issues when then enemy maiden has the same farm as your safe Lane qop

At the time someone said just pick Zeus /shrug

I thought someone said (maybe even in this thread) that the only thing considered was damage for calibration?

Wasn't that the one where ixmike88 got 7-8th /coughs ;)

Only thought I have is that browsers have a way to automatically find proxy servers, could turn that off if you haven't? Its under Settings > Advanced > Network

Maybe the ODroid-C2 which is a less popular RPi alternative.

If you want to see what not to do, SingSing is back this weekend I think :p So ppd's retirement lasted <6-months haha. Other than Boris who I don't remember seeing him play the roster looks very strong. QO and ppd need nothing said, Chessie usually looked like the best player on his teams...

You said tablet.... and being docked doesn't change the cooling limitations of the form factor. In fact the U shaped dock will probably trap heat unless there is a fan in there.

Disney green-lit a $250-million movie based on a 100-year old book, are you sure they aren't run by retards. I suspect you would find that the Shield tablet throttles pretty quickly, most mobile devices do because of heat. That said, I would assume the underclock is really for battery life...

I haven't played since the rework (trying to avoid mouse usage) but from what I've seen techies still isn't a hero in fights. Unless you can plan (e.g. high ground) or lure people into a trap your team is playing 4v5 dota. Maiden is generally considered to be a bad hero these days and unless...

Its on Netflix here, not quite up to the original but still fairly funny. I could have done without Bieber, Kiefer and Perry. The explanation for what happened between then and now was pretty funny.

I caught it on Netflix before the holidays and it made me realize I'm pretty much done with super hero movies. I'll probably still watch Guardians of the Galaxy 2 and a Deadpool follow-up but I haven't otherwise enjoyed them since the first Avengers movie and even that didn't turn out to be...
