    The Official Hearthstone : Heroes of Warcraft Thread

    Living the dream.... 12-2 with a rogue in Arena without a weapon or deadly poison in sight! Only the second arena run with a rogue and I've never played them in constructed so I'm not sure how I did that! Went from 5-2 to 12-2 with a number of nail biters resolved by top decks... Prizes for...

    The Official Hearthstone : Heroes of Warcraft Thread

    Managed to drag out my last arena purchase for 5 run throughs so far with 150 gold still in the bank for another from the prizes. 25-5 playing as Warrior in Arena's so far and I feel I got very unlucky in the last game I lost to end 7-3 (Flamestrike off the top the turn before I killed my...

    150 gold, or £1.49 for the Arena. Not bad if you don't scrub out 0-3 as you can get a good hour or two out of a good run. Certainly cheaper than going to the cinema :P Just went 9-1 on the latest run I did.... straight after going 1-3 heh....

    As someone who has played M:tG since 1994, I'm actually finding this quite fun. It's very simplistic in comparison but that's perfect for an internet based game where you can blast through games in less than 10 minutes most of the time. Managed to fund 2 Arena runs off the basic training rewards...

    *****EGOSOFT TNBT (X Rebirth)****

    Gave this a week or so to stew before loading it up. Made it all the way through the energy cell mission without a crash - everything working as planned except as soon as I'd finished the mission, had a CTD. I was physically moving to hit the F5 key as it went too!. Reload from a much earlier...

    *****EGOSOFT TNBT (X Rebirth)****

    Having been stung by Zavvi before, I'm glad I resisted the temptation to go for the £24.99 price and went for the £29.99 one on Amazon. I suspected both would rise but Amazon are big enough to honour the price usually. Copy was dispatched yesterday and should be here today according to their...

    *** Official Dota 2 Thread ***

    Tried to give this a go today having practiced a number of champs vs bots . 2 games with multiple leavers to start with and just spent the 3rd being called a retard for the entire game for losing mid as pudge vs outerworld devourer (never any mana for any abilities. I don't know how I was...

    *** League of Legends ***

    I find it easier to predict who you are going to hit now with Alpha strike. It is a little nerfed early game which will relegate yi to jungling only I think. Mana issues are still too much for laning yi. He still snowballs something silly though with alpha strike crits melting squishies and the...

    What are the games every Steam account needs?

    Perhaps time has made my fuzzy memories more favourable, but I don't recall having as much fun in any game as I did with Psychonauts.... and now cheaper than a pint when in the sales!

    Hurricane Sandy

    Your signature is amusing given how ignorant this post was... The storm is still a hurricane (although transitioning to an extra tropical storm at the moment). It is currently strengthening with evidence from recon planes of sustained winds of upto 90mph south west of the centre now (Gusts will...

    XCOM : Enemy Unknown - by Firaxis Games - Thread

    According to my maths, you had only a 99.7% chance of hitting at least once with those hit chances. Whilst very high, it's certainly not a certainty but you managed to hit the 1 in 300 chance of failing right there. I guess that's the nature of statistics. It's almost certain that there are many...

    Guild Wars 2

    I got to level 80 with only 38% map completion. Pretty cool because I'll probably be able to level 2 more characters without duplicating much content! I have a friend who had 100% completion within about 10 days. Completely mad if you ask me as all you have left to do is grind tokens for rares...

    Guild Wars 2

    I generally go condition damage on my thief for wvwvw and pve. Pistol/Dagger and Shortbow give you massive amount of bleeds and poisons and the mobility of the '3' skills on both keep your survivability high. Doesn't work so well in spvp for me though where frontloading the damage seems to be a...

    Guild Wars 2

    I had a similar thing happen to me after an entire evening of trying to grind xp in a safe manner only to have someone kite a champion into an AOE I had going. Raged a bit, ported to Lion's Arch to do some crafting to cool down and ended up getting about 4 levels xp from 71-75 in 10 minutes :P...

    Guild Wars 2

    Spent most of the weekend playing a tanky thief and loved it. Quite fun in PVE but in PVP, I took on an initiator role, or a chaser, using the shadow step skills to teleport into range and scorpion wire to hook people to allies (I play Blitzcrank in League of Legends and am essentially playing...

    Reported: 10 Killed in US Batman Premiere

    This is a bit weird for me as I spent some time in Aurora last year and visited that very cinema on a couple of occasions. The town was a bit of a dump to be honest but generally, I felt safer in Colorado than in any other state I visited ouside of maybe Wyoming. Just real nice down to earth...

    Still yet to find even one legendary... does the drop rate of legendaries incease in Act 3 Inferno? I run through act 1 a couple of times a day when I get chance and most I've ever got for an item is 2 mil, although I have a few items which could sell for more if I wasn't wearing them now ;)...

    *** The Official Diablo III Thread ***

    Yes, I got level 60 somewhere around Izual, but had to retool to kill Diablo so lost the stacks I'd gained. I'd rather not grind acts for gear but I think Inferno will be too difficult to wing without doing so. First champ pack took me 10 deaths to get through - Waller Vortex Jailer Fire Chains...

    Made it in Inferno mode last night on my Demon Hunter and ouch.... really need to find some decent upgrades. My level 30 pants ain't cutting it any more :p I haven't had a rare drop from any boss mob now since Normal Belial (the only boss whose ever dropped a rare for me) and whilst abundant...

    Possible Mobo issue

    Problem with all that is I'm out of time for those sort of extensive tests :( Going to America tomorrow and would rather have bits ready when I came back. I guess I might just have to test it when I'm back and put off Diablo 3 for a bit longer. It's bad enough that Blizzard scheduled release...
