DotA 2 (Beta) Review

(Updated 02/13)
The Matchmaking in DotA 2 is horrible I would not recommend this game to anyone who enjoys their happiness or their sanity, because you will be put up again and again and again against stomp teams, untill they fix this it really doesn't deserve a 8.5, more like a 5.5 if that. There's no fun to found in time after time being put up in games that are impossible to win.


Not only this but the community is a bunch of delusional pricks, reporting them doesn't do anything either you only have a limited amount and the second you report 1 20 more will pop up in their place.. People spend more time arguing who sucks more then playing the game. The only time you probably should play this is if you have a stomp team like all other valve's games..


For those who don't know DotA (Defense of the Ancients) is originally a custom scenario for the game Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne, This was based on AoS (Aeon of Strife) from Starcraft, as such the style of this game is usually referred to a AoS. However sometimes they are also referred to as MOBAs (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena)

DotA 2 is played from a top down perspective like RTSs usually are, using the left mouse button to select and the right mouse button to move or attack, along with using Q,W,E,R to cast spells however all keys are rebindable so there is no need to worry if you do not like that setup.

The principle for this game is fairly simple, the objective is to destroy the enemy's Ancient but unfortunately it is guarded by waves of annoying minions spawning, OP (Overpowered) towers that clearly don't like me and like to shoot me at the worst possible times, and of course where you come into play Heros. At the start of the game you select your Hero from 3 types; Str (Strength) , Agi (Agility), and Int (Intelligence).

Limbo Review

Limbo is a fairly unique game, you most likely won't find another game like it. You are shoved into a eerie world with no formal introduction, or any idea what is going on, waking up in the middle of a field. I won't say Limbo is a revolutionary game or anything of the sort but it does it's job well.

Starting Screen.

Limbo is a puzzle/platformer game, mixed with horror elements, from the time you start playing to the end you will be immersed in a eerie yet vibrant living world, of course the puzzles do start off fairly easy, and eventually they start to add some fairly complex platforming puzzles in.

Saints Row: The Third Review

(to be updated with screenshots and edited.)


Saints Row: The Third's story begins as you and a few of your compadres are setting up to rob a bank, the reason exactly why is never explained, the story is almost non-existent as you progress through the game there isn't a whole lot of reason as to why you are doing this or that. But thankfully the cinematics are laced with a good sense of comedy and ridiculous action scenes as you are not allowed to skip them. But if anyone has told you Saints row games are fun because they have a great story, then they clearly must have been on a abundant of drugs.

While the story suffers from not existing the characters are still fairy entertaining to watch, they each have their own personality you will grow to like or dislike the characters as time goes on, which is great because you will be spending a lot of time around them, and if you couldn't even remember their name it'd be pretty bad. For instance Pierce and his annoying autotune voice makes you want to hit him over the head, perhaps steal his microphone and shove it up his various appendages.

Google Chrome

Google Chrome

If you aren't already using Google Chrome I will highly recommend it, a beautiful browser that works flawlessly, can be minimalistic or expansive.

Start up is fast and fluent, setting it up is instant, and if you want to install it on a new computer you can just setup the sync and all your files, bookmarks, settings, themes, everything will be there when you get on.

Chrome Extension: Pandora Enhancer

Pandora Enhancer

A neat extension that is great if you use pandora frequently, will remove annoying adds, timeouts, and even gives you a little popup window telling you what song is currently playing where you can vote like or dislike on it.
