As part of many websites all around the world, this blog will too serve as a beacon of hope.
A beacon of change.

The day that millions rose up and protested against the legislator, the tyrant, the..

Dota 2

With the multiple clones of the map we all love from Warcraft 3 Dota (League of Legends, Heroes of Newerth) It's almost time for the real thing!
Dota 2 will be released on 31/3/2012 and I can't wait!
The problem I anticipate is of course balance. There will be a lot of changes in the characters while the makers figure out the best balance for them.
Anyway I'm just blabbing about, so heres the trailer!

I Am Alive!

No, not me. I am still a mindless zombie.
Talking about the much anticipated game "I Am Alive" about to be released on the XBoX and the PS3, no PC release yet unfortunately. This game really differs from Fallout and other post-apocalyptic games in such that you don't get loads of weapons and items to use throughout the game, and instead have to rely on very scarse resources, which really emmphasizes the survival theme of the game.You will not face zombies or monsters but people like you, in desperate need of supplies like water, and must do anything in order to live on.
Here's the trailer from the announcement in 2008, the others just weren't as good

And this brings us to the end of the world. Will it happen? Don't know. Will it be awesome? Most likely.

FIRE IN MY HOUSE (And SOPA too)

My PSU burned down this friday, went down if flames and sparks! Total shock for me, sitting right next to it! Just got a replacement today, luckily nothing else was damaged and I'm ready for some blogging!
Anyway, now that I'm back, I think its time to talk about SOPA.
Long story short, this bill will give the film/music/gaming industries companies the power to take down any website containing their copyrighted products, or even a hint of them. They will also have the power to sue the webhosts of such material (like YouTube of Facebook if you post a picture of yourself playing a game). That means that they could even take down my blog for posting links to trailers on YouTube or just talking about the games.
While there should be laws against piracy online, this is just too harsh in my opinion and should never pass.
What are your thoughts?

Super Meat Boy passed 1 million sales!

Wow! Who would have thought that this piece of meat (Literally) would sell over one million copies. Team Meat tweeted the announcement earlier today, and it seems that the million mark was passed just close to New Years Eve.
To anyone not familiar with the game, it's very worth to check out, as an incredibly fun platformer with tons of levels, and rather ridiculously hard boss figts.



Also, I just love the headcrab, don't you?
