I enjoy the way this one is set up. Personally every time I tried a MOBA before I was lost more by the "what the hell items do I buy?" bit more than anything else. The levelling talent system in Heroes of the Storm is just the right balance between simplicity and customization for me. That...

Playing Asmodan on Co-Op (yeah yeah whatever I enjoy it) is a lot of fun. Especially on Cursed Mines when you can use your death beam on the golem. I find his abilities to be quite handy even though he isn't terribly great at a direct conflict.

LFR was that... but it isn't anymore. People were running Normal Mode PUGs and clearly BRF on the first day. Simply delaying one week would eliminate any chance of an LFR-untouchable from seeing anything first. Do you honestly think that people who are running Normal need a 7 week head start...

First wing for LFR is delayed two weeks, wing two comes out a week later. The delay for the third wing is two weeks after wing 2 and the final boss is two weeks after wing 3. Which brings us to the end of March , 7 weeks in all. Keep in mind that all of this delay is just for ilevel 650...

The thing is that Normal really isn't progression per se since they neutered Raid Finder into oblivion and then applied a ridiculous release schedule for it. I was okay with Raid Finder being delayed a week so that people doing hard modes could get the visceral feel that first week, but two...

That program is the precursor to the one that creates Black Widow. But yeah same basic schtick. That kid is too old to be Natasha though. I do like what they are doing with Howard Stark to bridge the gap between WW2 and the present day. Obviously as we get further and further from the 1940s...

Ahh apparently back in October they said that Atom would NOT have shrinking powers on Arrow because they did not feel the need for superpowers clouding up that show. Makes sense given that it was originally Blue Beetle they wanted to do until DC said "nope!" at the last minute and suggested Ray...

Im starting to wonder if Atom will actually shrink... So far in the show the mentions of miniaturization has been in the context of taking the O.M.A.C. tank type gear and shrinking it to use on the A.T.O.M. suit.

That's a pretty damn good looking Grodd...that and they are doing some pretty cool things with the Firestorm effects as well. I noticed that CW did not have any new DC properties in their list of announced pilots a couple days ago. Perhaps they aren't going to spin anything off quite yet, or...

Heavens to murgatroid... Diablo is awful. I had seen people talk trash about him of course but I had no idea he was so very sad.

Looking at the premade group finder makes me sad. Most of them are "Fresh BRF ... KNOW FIGHTS!!" or "Make sure you've watched vids!!" Absolutely no interest in learning new content, merely regurgitating the choreography they find on YouTube.

Morena Baccarin coming in as medical examiner would be cool, certainly she's leaps and bounds better than Babs.

How much of that $52M loss is a true money spent - money earned and how much is the result of a charge SoE paid to Sony for marketing or promotional considerations or whatever? Remember this is the entertainment industry with their own very bizarre ways of accounting. Hell even in the normal...

Just been trying Nazeebo today since I reached level 12. Pretty damn powerful, he's a lot of fun.

While the head of CBS programming indicated that Supergirl would not crossover with Arrow and the Flash reports from others at Warner Brothers have hinted that this might not be the case, or rather that certain characters and such might readily cross over even if Supergirl herself never shows up...

Casting call sheets for the pilot are out and apparently the characters include: Dick Greyson AKARobinAKANightwing. The pilot episode has him still going by Robin, but is post-breakup with Batman and living in Boston as a private eye. Barbara Gordon AKAOracle. She is not referred to as...

Venture capital wants SOME short term return. Ideal situation for them is to come up with something bright and shiny to demonstrate the money was well spent in the short term and then have the resources to perform something long term. Remember that a LOT of venture capital gets sunk into...

Who plays Pong with a joystick? Paddle controllers son! After the last Fan Faire and seeing decent things there I had really high hopes for EQNext, but that was quite awhile ago now and I'm kinda shocked that we have not seen more from them... Either this new company will represent an...

It helps that Brandon Routh pulls off adorkable quite well.

Well to be fair the nature of social networking has changed dramatically from EQ / vanilla WoW to today. Before you were most likely only ever going to group with people that you met in the game and that tended to be what formed the guilds as they then existed. Now with so many out-of-game...

Dungeon difficulty was a miss this time around. I was fully expecting to need to use CC / be careful for the first Tier worth of Heroic dungeons and instead people were just charging in crazy and ignoring mechanics from day 1. I think a couple groups had some deaths right there in that first...

People have spoken with their wallets. Multiplayer games tend to deliver content in 15-20 minute chunks. Even someone who sits playing Call of Duty for 4 straight hours does so by a series of short matches rather than a marathon slugfest. MOBAs similarly deliver their content in isolated...

So for the show they are gonna dump the Aegon storyline and merge Varys' support of him into Dany? Makes sense. I sometimes wonder if the show we are getting via HBO is what the novels themselves would have been like with a stronger editor?

I love my Fire Stick. After all the press the Fire Phone got and how really bleh it was and subsequently failed I see almost no one talking about the Fire Stick. I've had a couple glitches like having to reboot both phone and Stick in order to get the You Tube app to work, but found it to be...

Its comic book super science. I gave it a pass, although I think they should have just had her find the flaw in the original chip rather than go crazy with it.

Given how incredibly disposable most members of the League of Assassins are I really have to wonder 1) where is this vaunted training they keep talking about and 2) what sort of compensation package do they offer. Maybe next season they can do the H.I.V.E. or some other source of cannon fodder.

LiLi is fun. Just wish she wasn't LiLi...I guess it makes sense with Chen being in the game and all but she's moderately annoying

Yeah Nygma is really quite sympathetic so far. I almost feel sad that we probably will never get to see him go full on Riddler in the context of the show.

Im having enough challenge with cooperative. I dunno if I could handle fighting actual human beings. I regret having not touched the genre at all until now in some ways as I have zero appreciation for some of the nuances.

Ahhh I just saw an interview with Greg Berlanti where they mention that Hartley didn't kill anyone specifically because they wanted the room to have him take on the "reformed rogue" role that he did in the comics. I suppose if they link him to F.I.R.E.S.T.O.R.M. then they could have him as a...

Melissa McCarthy is really the only person I thought of for the Venkman-type role when they announced the estrogen-enhanced Ghostbusters reboot. She does have improv ability and has proven to be a box office draw with her comedies over the last few years while still cranking out a network sitcom.

Good job with Piper. Hartley has always been a rather more complex Rogue. I suspect we will be seeing a lot of him.

The prices of things like the Lunar Festival skins are just crazy. If they can convince people of the value they could easily rake in more $$ with this than with WoW thanks to the power of microtransactions. Wait. Is it fair to call them 'microtransactions' when they are $10?

So they are the rather plain four until the climax? That's what people really want out of a super hero movie... Angst and 2 hours of origin exposition.

What the hell was the point of the shards? I kept assuming that they would factor into the plotline in a major way and they never did... or if they did I totally missed it. My first thought was that separate from Power to unlock missions and such I would need X number of shards in order to...

I was pretty shocked when they did not add a new subclass with the DLC. Perhaps they are saving that for the Comet release? Just seems kinda crazy to include that functionality and then not take advantage of it. It is an easy solution to the desire to not reset people's gear. Instead reset...

Ahh well nuts then. I'll just wait until I can try him during a free week. I think I like Raynor because he is rather self-sufficient, but then again I've only been playing Cooperative.

I need to learn to love some character other than Raynor. How is Gazlowe? I gave him a whirl on the "Try" and he seemed kinda fun.

Blizzard is playing it smart with the mindfuckery of the daily quest system. Its amazing how well the daily quests don't align with the free heroes. "Hey do daily quests to earn gold and buy heroes and outfits! Today's daily quest is... oh I guess you need to buy a hero in order to do this...

I have a feeling we will see a lot more of Fish Mooney instead of a lot less. She's gotten quite a bit of mainstream press as a kooky personality of Gotham that isn't based on an existing character. It also opens up the possibility of having an Eartha Kitt style Catwoman characterization in a...
