You want change? Then change you will get. Maybe this is what IceFrog was thinking while putting together the Dota 2 6.82 patch, the Rekindling Soul update. We once said that 6.79 was crazy, but if you check out the 6.82 patch notes, the Rekindling Soul update takes the crazy cake right now. Check out some of the major changes that you need to know:
I chanced upon this funny yet creative algorithm in IGN.com while I was looking for MMO news. It was fun tracing my path towards the next game I'd probably play but it's weird I kept landing on games I know I wouldn't play anyway (HAHA!).
I won't say it's useless, but hey, you wouldn't know what you'd enjoy unless you actually try it. :P
This flow chart has all sorts of games and it gets pretty interesting. So go on and try it out!
It is an exciting news for players who prefer Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) games: Sign-ups for the Rise of Immortals Closed Beta test are open for those interested in trying its first MOBA game!

Since the dawn of MMORPG, it has been a perennial problem for couples to enjoy each other's company. Before, one only has to compete with a partner's family or friends when it comes to spending time. Now, gaming time has been included into the mix and has caused more problems than anyone outside the gaming life could ever imagine.
Before I proceed, I have to admit that I honestly do not know why I suddenly have this idea of telling you people how to enjoy gaming and the company of your girlfriend/boyfriend or wife/husband when I myself have lost my girlfriend to some guy he met through playing an online game. But fret not, for I will also give you the pros and cons of such a set-up.
Let's continue.
There was once a saying that went "DotA: Breaking Relationships" (Defense of The Ancients is one of the popular games in the local gaming scene since its release in the market) because most guys would forget picking up their girlfriends after school or always being late for a date whenever they are completely engrossed into playing. Fortunately, some brilliant guys figured they can just teach their girlfriends how to play the game and turn their former solely gaming life into a dual-purpose activity: personal recreation and a date.
I have dug up a video on how guys can turn their girlfriends into gamers but the tips enumerated herein are also applicable to girls who want to make gamers out of their men:
Now, for the pros:
1. You are now united in a single "world". 2. You get to spend time with each other by playing together, either by having him/her beside you (game consoles) or in each other's house (online gaming). 3. You get to know each other. 4. You have fun together.
The cons:
1. Like my story, there is a risk of having him/her be flirted with by a random online person. This won't be a problem if he/she is loyal to you. Otherwise, note that you have been warned. 2. There is a possibility for either one of you to be completely focused on individual gaming. Remember that it is still a "partner activity". It wouldn't hurt your score or EXP if you talk to each other while playing.
People in a relationship are supposed to bridge the gap to help each other grow and learn. They should lessen the division and distinction between "his activities" and "her activities". Instead, create an atmosphere that will make both of them feel that they can simply crash into whatever you're doing because they want to know and understand why you're having so much fun with it.
