  1. A lot of people think that eSports comes with rules set in stone. This is false, especially with games like Super Smash Bros. eSports are a niche that continues on evolving and a lot of people don't notice this kind of growth. There have been many controversial matches in Super Smash Bros. history that have brought new rulesets and also resulted in the biggest cases of someone being angry and feeling completely cheated out of a game. But, this is the way that we learn and grow as a competitive game. So long as matches as this exist, people will learn how to further evolve and adapt the game.

  2. Being able to play videogames with other gamers from around the world open the path to some really funny or weird stories with random teammates or adversaries, Whether is a FPS or an MMO there is always that one story. Personally I have a few but the most recent one today while playing Apex Legends, my two teammates a Kid and a noob, the kid was trashing the noob over the mic because he sucked at playing, he was constantly cursing at him through the whole match, nothing new this is pretty normal as you all know, and then his mother shows up in the background of the mic yelling at him for cursing and apparently she disconnected the consolešŸ˜†, needles to say we got our asses kicked. What are your funny or weird stories from playing online ?

  3. Imagine if Zork had other players running around in it with you, and that is essentially what a MUD is. Even larger MUDs are often small and tight-knit compared to the huge graphical MMOs around today. So most of the weird stuff that happens seems to involve either interpersonal drama, glitches in programming, or both. But sometimes itā€™s the ā€œsmallā€ nature of the games that generates weird situations. If you join a MUD not long after it opens, everything is a ā€œfirst.ā€ And firsts make you famous. I was an early player in a large MUD, and happened to be the ā€œfirstā€ player to commit high treason against a city. This resulted in the following series of events: An immediate lifetime ban from entering the city (automated systems would kill me if I tried). Thrown out of my guild. Banned from every guild in the game except for one, which had to take everyone. I stubbornly refused to join it for months, during which time I literally had no fighting skill except ā€œkick.ā€ I was recruited as being essentially second-in-command in a major in-game mafia. I played for over a year, and during that time, a ton of people committed treason. Since it became commonplace, most people would be banned from a city or guild for a few RL days, a few weeks at worst, and then let back in. But nobody would unban me from my original city until well over a RL year had passed. The crazy part was what the specific act of treason was that earned me this game-wide notoriety. All I did was read a confidential log entry to another player about why he had been banned, which was, ā€œNeed I state the reasons?ā€ Those five words took me from being a complete nobody newb to being a notorious criminal =D

  6. Well, thatā€™s the beauty of Mindstorms, and LEGO toys in general; if youā€™re creative enough, you can build just about anything you want. I for one have ambitions to one day build a functional Protoss Dragoon from StarCraft out of it. As for YuGiOh!, Iā€™m mostly interested in getting specific cards for my decks. Iā€™ve got a Code Talker archetype deck planned out, but most of the cards I need to make it work arenā€™t available outside Japan yet; the majority of them come out of the Master Link structure deck, and one of them comes from an issue of V-JUMP magazine. I doubt that last one is getting an international release, but I can hope.

  7. Absolutely. I'm a big fan of the Total War series, which of course is a very historical franchise (Warhammer games aside!) - I've been writing a series of character profiles for the upcoming Total War: Three Kingdoms looking at the literary and historical backgrounds of characters who will be featuring. (I also did a series for Battlefield 5 looking at the historical battles which inspired battles in the game.) I haven't written any Three Kingdoms ones for a while, as I've been busy with other news, but I'm getting back to it today to finish the series ahead of the game's release! Here's an example, but you can find the rest on the Total War news page: https://www.vgr.com/total-war-three-kingdoms-heroes-dian-wei/
