Along with not having experience shared is another bizarre aspect of a team-based game - the carry role. _ League of Legends _ can reward a team that puts all their eggs in one basket, giving a champion with a high damage potential and the right item build the ability to completely dominate the late-game and "carry" their team to victory. The carry will inevitably end the game with much larger experience, and also tends to get a massively inflated ego while doing

The games that turned the market on its head. There was no way that Nintendo could have ever known just how popular Pokemon was going to be, but the company decided to test its luck with a new second-party property. This move eventually spawned a trading card game, an anime and countless piles of mo

Eventually, players and developers alike realized this last hit business was stupid and changed things so that simply being present when a minion expires nets you that sweet, sweet XP. However, in _ League _ an artifact of the last hit era remained in gold farming. If you’re not the last thing hitting a minion,you get no gold, and that’s d

On July 31, 1989 the North American gaming industry changed forever. This day in history marks the debut of Nintendo's Game Boy , a portable gaming device that would go on to revolutionize gaming and tap an entirely new market. Unsurprisingly, being able to take your game on the go was incredibly well-recieved by the masses and the handheld has secured its place as an iconic device amongst gamers and casual consumers al

In "Legends of Yesterday", written by Greg Berlanti, Andrew Kreisberg, and Aaron and Todd Helbing, a strange killer comes to Central City to hunt down Kendra Saunders (Ciara Renée), forcing Barry (Grant Gustin) to seek out Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) and his Team Arrow for help. The emergence of a winged warrior who claims to have the answers only complicates things, setting up a villain the likes of which neither Barry nor Oliver has faced bef

No list of Blizzard cinematics would be complete without mention of the original World of Warcraft reveal trailer. In many ways, this is the trailer that kicked off the modern era of Blizzard gaming. The reveal trailer takes players back to Azeroth after Warcraft 3 and offers a brand-new perspective on the Warcraft setting. Aside from Trolls, just about every race and class get some love in this trai

I know I kinda go back to this a lot, but with 134 champions it can not only be hard to balance them all, but it can also be hard to make them unique. A lot of _ League _ heroes tend to blend together, with only a slight variations to give them some original

When it was announced that Kendra Saunders would be coming to The Flash before Legends , most assumed it was to give the character a springboard on par with her castmates (the rest of the Legends have been seen in The CW's universe already). What they didn't expect was to see the character's origin worked so completely into the growing fiction of Arrow and The Flash 's current sea

Tyrael's Sacrifice is the first of a few tear-jerkers to make our list. Unlike the World of Warcraft opening cinematic, this Diablo 3 cinematic is entirely devoted to established characters in the game's universe. The three-minute cut scene contains lots of flash and action in the heavens, but what makes it great is how well it pulls at the player's heart stri

**The Flash ** crossover continues on Arrow with "Legends of Yesterday", with regular programming returning next Tuesday @8pm with "Running to Stand Still". Watch a preview of the crossover's conclusion be

As further evidence the writers probably bit off more than they could chew this week, Harrison Wells (Tom Cavanagh) is also shot in the chest by Patty Spivot (Shantel VanSanten) this episode, leaving him clinging to life until Jay Garrick (Teddy Sears) regained his speed with an injection of 'Velocity 6' and removed the bullet. We wonder if that will come back late

Viewed by many to be the best portable iteration of The Legend of Zelda series, Link's Awakening was a true-to-form sequel that brought various elements from the home console iteration to a portable gaming device. Gamers the world over clamored for the game when it hit store shelves and it was unanimously well-received by critics upon it's arri

Arthas and Nova should never really end up in a battle together as far as Blizzard lore is concerned, but Heroes of the Storm allows players to live out that "who would win in a fight?" fantasy over and over in an addicting MOBA game DLC format. This trailer does a stellar job of showing just how fun things can get when you relax and don't think too m

StarCraft 2's Betrayal on Kerrigan trailer is one of the company's most emotional creations. The cinematic is heartbreaking whether you are a fan of the series or not, but it hits home particularly hard for old school StarCraft fans. The trailer offers gamers a view from the ground as Kerrigan is betrayed by her own commander and left alone to be infested by the Zerg. The legendary betrayal takes place in the original StarCraft and this retelling of the hero turned villain's last moments of righteousness even borrows the original dialogue from the classic
