On Player Accessibility in Hearthstone and Pokemon Go

I’m going to preface this post by saying I’m currently working off a fever, so I apologize for any incoherent rambling. But I just started thinking about both Pokemon Go and Hearthstone and how Hearthstone could have blown up bigger than it did.

Heroes of the Storm – Technical Alpha Invitation

For whatever reason, Blizzard decided to send me an invitation into the technical alpha of Heroes of the Storm. Now, I’m more than happy to play and test their game, but I really didn’t think I’d be the best person for the alpha.

The Walking Dead

A Visit to the Art of Video Games

Blizzcon 2011 – Opening Ceremonies

So much was just revealed during the Blizzcon 2011 Opening Ceremonies. Here’s my list of favorites.

[iOS] Plants vs. Zombies – Sol Invictus

Plants vs. Zombies for iOS was recently updated to include more of the mini games that were found in the PC version. This update included one of my favorite mini games, Last Stand. In this mini game, you’re given 5000 sun and are prohibited from planting sunflowers or sun shrooms. Therefore, you must come up with an efficient build to survive five waves of zombies. With the Last Stand mini game also came a new achievement called Sol Invictus, where you must complete Last Stand with at least 2000 sun remaining. Here’s what my set up looks like to get this achievement.

Major League Gaming (MLG) Columbus went down this weekend, and with it came a lot of spectacular games of Starcraft 2. My favorite series, hands-down, was between MMA and IdrA.
