Ringing Hell's Bells

So with less than a week until the release of Reaper of Souls, a quick retrospect on Diablo's patch 2.0 overhaul is in order!

Heroes Of The Storm is now in Technical Alpha!

Hello everyone, Kieran 'Mukea' Miller here again and today Heroes Of The Storm went into Technical Alpha! Heroes Of The Storm is Blizzards upcoming MOBA (Massively Online Battle Arena) game and as a massive Blizzard fan and former League Of Legends player I am incredibly excited for this. The heroes that you can play as are all from Blizzard games (Warcraft, Starcraft and Diablo) and there are already lots of heroes to play as. From what I can tell it follows a similar concept to most other MOBAs where there's a set of free characters to play that changes regularly, and to keep a character you either have to save up in game currency or pay for it with real money. On top of this there are also skins you can get for each character, some can be bought and others have to be earnt via in game quests for that character.

 Only big streamers / video makers and I think a few randomers got keys but there is no NDA so people are already streaming it on Twitch.tv. I opted into the beta as soon as they announced it at Blizzcon and I hope I get in, can't wait to destroy people as my favourite World of Warcraft champions such as Illidan Stormrage!

Anyway, that's all from me for today, so goodbye until next time!

Hearthstone - Changes to Nat Pagle and Tinkmaster Overspark!

Hello everyone, Kieran 'Mukea' Miller here again and today I am bringing you information about some card changes that will be coming to Hearthstone. Nat Pagle and Tinkmaster Overspark are two cards that are incredibly RNG based and can either win or lose you a game based on the outcome. Both cards are currently heavily used in high end gameplay and I will explain the changes that are coming to these cards.

“The Best Things in Life” is a new segment I’ll be doing every so often taking a look at some of the excellent games available for the grand total of nothing.

Kicking off this series is Classic Spelunky, a free rogue-like platformer originally released in 2009 as a free download and then updated and re-released as a paid version on Xbox Live, Playstation Network and Steam.
