League of Legends Champion: Viktor, the Machine Herald

League of Legends is a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game made by Riot Games; it is widely popular and has millions up millions of players. I started playing this game back in September and I haven't been able to stop - this is the longest I've ever played any game consistently.

Viktor, the Machine Herald is a champion added to League of Legends in late December, 2011; he is the last new champion released for the year. He is incredibly fun and has a third arm that shoots laser beams! Here is the champion spotlight released by the company.

Uncharted 3, Launch Trailer!

Uncharted 3 releases on November 1st, 2011! Here is the launch trailer that they've released on YouTube; I have put it below for you to watch.

World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria, Announced at Blizzcon!

World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria has been officially announced, after it was initially found out through the registered trademark of the name (and swiftly 'denied' being the the expansion name at all). However, we all knew that it would be the expansion, because of way it was registers (as game software, bundled with a manual...).

Here is an amazing preview that they've released of the game - it tells of the new features and recaps what has happened in the stories of the previous expansions. This is not the cinematic trailer that they usually release as well, for the expansions:

My blog is so ready for Skyrim! - 111111 views on my blog!

I checked my blog earlier and I noticed that it had exactly 111,111 views!

Skyrim is released on 11-11-11!

It's a sign of the times... Video games are being released all around us and it is inevitable... we need to play them! Upon release, I will make sure to play Skyrim as soon as I can.

Final Fantasy X getting a remake!

It seems that my favorite Final Fantasy game, Final Fantasy X is getting a remake! It's going to be an HD remake for the PS3 and the Playstation Vita (the handheld successor to the PSP, which is equal in power to a PS3!).

I can't wait to be able to play the remade version! I really wonder if there will be any updates, or if it will simply be the same things once again. I know that it'll be an HD remake, but if there will be any other meaningful changes - I just don't know.

Final Fantasy XIII-2 Release is January 31st, 2012!

Final Fantasy XIII-2, FFXIII's highly anticipated sequel is coming very early next year! I can't wait to play it, although 13 really wasn't very great in terms of gameplay. Nonetheless, its direct sequel was developed in a new format for Square Enix: Listening to their customers' complaints!

FFXIII sold over six million copies, so it's only natural that they'd make a sequel to the game; I can't wait to play it - branching storylines, different endings... JUMPING! That's right - for the first time ever in an FF game, you can jump! Whenever you want :D XD

Final Fantasy XIII-2, RELEASE DATE!

And the release date is JANUARY 2012! For the US, anyway; the Japanese one is even earlier - in DECEMBER! I can't wait to play it :D - Unfortunately, I don't know of the European, Australian or any other release dates than the ones I've revealed... :( - all well, I'm sure they'll all be around that time :D

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2... SUCKS?!

According to most people who play the game, it's a terrible end to the series (not the movie! It's great, according to almost anyone! :D).

The score on Metacritic so far is 55/100, which is freaking terrible. It's probably ALMOST as bad as Duke Nukem Forever... but unfortunately, it's made after an amazing movie, which was made from an amazing book. I don't know why people don't understand that different forms of media like books, movies and games all need to be made SEPARATELY NOT TOGETHER!

Book -> Movie (Harry Potter) --- WONDERFUL!

Book-> Game (Metro 2033) --- WONDERFUL!

Book-> Movie -> Game (ANYTHING!) --- TERRIBLE!

Book-> Game -> Movie (ANYTHING!) --- TERRIBLE!

In other news about things that need to stay separate (jk) I've heard rumors that the new Batman movie will be previewed during HP7p2 :D

Final Fantasy XIII, Sunleth Soundscape, Music Remix

Here is a great sounding remix of some of the FFXIII music (music is probably one of the very few things great about the game...).

Minecraft surpasses 10,000,000 users!

It seems that Minecraft has now been bought by over 2.6 million people! Ten million registered users are on its site. Minecraft is an amazing open world game that randomizes everything in the entire world as you walk through it; the hills, mountains, oceans, caverns, lava pits, snowy alps, low valleys, deserts, forests, etc. Everything is randomized!

Basically, the goal of the game is to gather different types of blocks (wood from trees, stone from the ground, dirt, etc.) and use these blocks to build a shelter... before nightfall. Nighttime is when the zombies, spiders, skeleton archers, skeleton archers riding spiders and many other creepy things come out to kill you... Including the infamous Creeper...

Creepers are the most annoying yet most original monster of them all... Basically, they exist to destroy what you've built. They explode when they come near you and they destroy all nearby blocks... Even if you spent five years building the Taj Mahal in Minecraft, a huge chunk will be taken out of it by one single Creeper... 

This is the face of evil... the Creeper...

Don't let them come near your base! Putting torches around will make sure they can't spawn... they only spawn in the dark. Monsters also spawn in the dark caverns, even during the day or in the darker shadows above ground... so always be aware.

Uncharted 3, Trailer, 2011

Uncharted 3 is being released on 11-1-11 (November 1, 2011). I can't wait until it's released! I liked the other two, although they were annoying because of all of those stupid instant deaths and having to redo too many climbing sequences and shooting sequences... Anyway, I'm sure the third will be amazing and hopefully far improved over those instant death things every five seconds.

Child of Eden, Launch Trailer! (2011)

Child of Eden has been released and the critics are loving it! (Unlike Duke Nukem Forever, which critics basically agree on it being the biggest piece of trash released in a long time...)

Final Fantasy XIII-2, E3 Trailer! (Full Version)

Here is a new trailer for Final Fantasy XIII-2 - it's awesome! It's like that first one released, but it shows a lot more in this one. So far this game looks WAY better than XIII!

Final Fantasy Type-O Trailer (English Sub)

Final Fantasy Type-O was originally called Final Fantasy Agito XIII - however, they changed the name to Type-O because it wasn't enough like the other XIII games... I still think Versus XIII should just be called Versus... it would make more sense to make it its own series... It looks way better than FF (Seriously! FFXIII SUCKED!)

Final Fantasy XIII-2 NEW Trailer - E3 2011

Here is a new trailer for the awesome looking sequel to Final Fantasy XIII - FFXIII-2! (that's not ff15 - thats final fantasy thirteen-two).

Project Cafe (Wii 2), leaked video of console?

It seems that someone may have leaked a video of the successor to the Wii, which is currently codenamed Project Cafe; most people seem to think it'll end up being called Nintendo Stream, because it streams four 1080p videos at the same time to four different controllers, which all have touch screens!

The hardware in this new console is also far better than that of the 360 and PS3 (which is understandable, because it's far newer). Nintendo and other game developers were all having trouble innovating anything else with the console, so they had to make a new one.

Nintendo has been behind with the Wii for years now, and with the release of Playstation Move and mostly the release of Microsoft's Kinect, the Wii had nothing special about it, anymore; the Wii is just a withered old husk, ready to become obsolete (if it hasn't already...).

The new console will be completely backwards compatible with older games from GameCube and the Wii, but the compatibility with older games from other systems is unknown; however, they have said it will have a higher emphasis on backwards compatibility (I hope it comes with a Super Nintendo game player! :D)

Project Cafe is said to also be the most developer friendly system; this means that they will make it very easy to develop games for their console. This is way different than the Wii, which many people had trouble programming for, because of the Wiimote's motion controls.

The SDK (Software Development Kit) for this console sounds awesome! We may finally get to see mainstream games being released on all three consoles, with great graphics! Maybe even a FFXIII rerelease, but with 1080p! (instead of 720p like on PS3 and 360...)
