    Update: Overwatch Game Director Thinks Bastion is "A Little Too Powerful"

    Beta was when Zenyatta wasn't allowed to be played because he had 150 HP and Widowmaker could oneshot him. Beta was when McCree was THE best offense because he could combo down any character that wasn't D.Va with flashbang>Fan>Roll>Flashbang. D.Va was widely considered the worst tank because she...

    The 5 Best Changes Pokemon Sun and Moon Made

    While SM made some nice changes to some things, in many places, it's taken steps backwards as well. Some people might not even notice/care about these things, but I have a small playgroup of semi competitive players who all do a lot of breeding/battling, so this is from our perspective, not from...

    Hearthstone's Next Adventure - One Night in Karazhan revealed

    Uhhh...what? There's plenty of viable decks that run every old god except Y'shaarj. Yogg Mage/Hunter/Druid, N'zoth Rogue/paladin/Hunter/Priest, C'thun Druid/Warlock/Warrior...and that's just off the top of my head. The raven is perfectly in line with cards that already exist. In fact, if it...

    Don't hate me for thinking like this, but don't you think...

    This makes me think you don't have the app. You can't "steal" anything from anyone in this game. 50 people can get the same pokemon in the same place if they're all there at the same time.

    10 Most Memorable The Legend of Zelda Characters

    The only thing that really bothered me is that Linebeck is so high. I mean, the guy who essentially was stuck on his boat until fairly late into the game, a handheld DS game, was more memorable than Midna, a character that the entire Twilight Princess was based around? That seems kinda weird. TP...

    World Video Game Hall of Fame Nominations are Open Now

    Zelda and Sonic aren't in there already? How the fuck did that happen? I guess for argument's sake if people still think Link is Zelda it's not popular enough. I mean, you don't see anyone looking at Mario and Bowser and wondering which is one of these "Bros." Metal Gear and Final...

    Blizzard Explains Why It Gives "Bad Cards" To New Hearthstone Players

    This interview implies a greater advantage than there actually is when it comes to the quality of cards. Don't get me wrong, it'll be a long while before a F2P player can put together a Freeze Mage, a Handlock, or a Wallet Warrior, but you can in fact play semi competitive decks at a low budget...

    Blizzard Explains Why It Gives "Bad Cards" To New Hearthstone Players

    I'm pretty sure Blizzard more or less has been advertising Hearthstone as a Free to Play card game, so at least in my head, I read it as "A CCG where you can earn free packs." To which I replied "Awesome!" Why should I care? I dunno, why do you care enough to reply to my comment? Why do...

    Blizzard Explains Why It Gives "Bad Cards" To New Hearthstone Players

    I think people are looking at this wrong in this thread. People need to realize, or at least understand, that this is standard for TCGs in general. Hell, in things like MTG you're just expected to shell out cash for singles or risk your money on packs to try and pull some expensive card to save...

    Hearthstone Makes $20 Million Per Month As CCG Market Grows

    One can say that the very reason the imitation MMO's failed was BECAUSE people were too invested in the game they were already playing. Some people(Such as myself) would try the new one out, and eventually go back to the one that I had played for much longer just because of the fact that I don't...

    8 Cards To Always Pick In Hearthstone Arena

    It can be, but you also have to take the mana curve into consideration. Let's look at shredder since it will be a card you're almost guaranteed to come across. They play it on 4, and then you get to take your 4. You can spellbreaker and efficiently use all your mana, or use owl and possibly have...

    Activision is Considering Remastering Old Call of Dutys

    I'm pretty sure there's an Inception joke in here somewhere. Something about rehashing rehashes? No that can't be right... That would imply that the games didn't get worse in map design over time.

    Assassin's Creed Unity and Rogue Sold "Very Well"

    Black Flag got lucky. From what I've seen, it spread with word of mouth as "Actually good and not like AC3, I promise." It wasn't enough to convince me to buy another AC game. Seeing the two newest games reaching 10 million while Black Flag hit 11 just reinforces my initial stance of "Don't buy...

    Zero Punctuation: Top 5 Games of 2014

    Do you know how many game of the year awards exist in this world? Portal won like, 8 when it came out. Winning a game of the year award doesn't automatically make you the biggest talking point of the everything.
