Rambo

Screw huskar's harass. Edit: And as someone who primarily plays int heroes, I'm going to be exceptionally happy when silencer is out of the new hero fad rotation.

I greatly prefer the design and aesthetics of the University one, but I agree that to most people it will be misleading.

Steam ID is heavydamage User name is [lions]Rambo EDIT: I've only had a chance to take a look at the INT characters so far... but it looks like 80% of them translate directly into HoN. So this might not take too long to integrate into!

fINALLY! aN INVITE!!!

You're shitting me. This is amazing. From this list, I only had Yoshi's island for the GBA because I got it after the DS came out. I wanted to play/own a handful of these games but couldn't find them! I'm especially excited for metroid fusion and minish cap. Never even seen gameplay for either.

Some guy GAVE me a vintage ten gallon hat for thinking up a name and description for his unusual. It was silly.

Castlevania III is the game that first interested me in VG music when I was young, so I'm glad to see that sitting on top (from an ignorant and biased standpoint - as I haven't heard an overwhelming number of soundtracks). However, in your list you've titled it Castlevania III - Dracula's Quest.... EDIT: Also, the songs in the youtube medley aren't technically for the NES. They're from the the Japanese equivalent on the Famicom.

I would too.

What. The silver surfer stage 1. Is that an actual rip from an NES game? Sounds way too good.

You'll spin any tale to afk freefarm as wildsoul all game. "sorry guys i couldn't find my bear"

The music in their game was pretty catchy. The controls need some polishing. Plot was lacking.

I still have 2 kidneys. naaah, I'm not DYING to play, I've never played more than a couple hours of DotA. But I'm really excited to see what valve does with the game and how it plays. Until I get an invite I'm fine with playing HoN. I just... hate S2...

herp derp. Then still not be sendin me an email. I thought if I put all support heroes as my favorites, I'd get an invite faster. :3

Neeed a keeey.

#1 reason I would rather play HoN.

I used to think this too. Eventually I learned that being down 9 kills to 3 (for example) is meaningless in itself. It's only relevant if youre down because your team is much less skilled (and the ratio will always be 9:3) or if you concede (and/or) throw the game beCAUSE you're down 9 to 3. I've been part of 15 kill deficits and come back. I've also been down 6 or 7 towers and come back. If you're on a team that wants to win rather than improve their precious K:DR, its not that unusual to see big turnarounds. Easily the biggest problem with snowballing in HoN is that people give up instead of playing smarter. In the 1000+ games Ive played, I've noticed that its a problem with the community, not an game mechanic flaw. The community is generally shit. On occasion there are still games where I honestly don't believe it's even possible to win, but a higher rated carry will ask us not to pass the concede vote, and eventually we pull ahead. On the topic of DotA2, I love the looks of the graphics. Its incredible. I like the visuals in HoN but in direct comparison, HoN looks way too busy. And the color pallet in DotA 2 is phenomenally better than LoL. I'm pretty stoked to see gameplay footage.

I was retardedly bad at this game.

My buddy played like 80 hours of oblivion or something, and while I was watching him play his game auto saved momentarily before dying. He tried one more time from that save file and it auto saved again this time fractions of a second before dying. He was furious, I had to exert extreme self control to not laugh like a maniac the dozens of times he tried to not die after that. He never played the game again. Don't think games should save while you're in combat. That's just silly.

Bonzai played in a lane against Warden + Nymph. Warden maxed dogs, nymph maxed mana. He just spammed all laning phase. They could not do, a thing. The range on that is insane, the damage is incredibly good, it is autotargetted, and it hits both enemies! Risk free and completely devoid of skill. What do you even do.

Wow. Crazy changes to items. They've changed some some item components so that Bracers, Soulscream Rings, and Amulets can be built into bigger so that they aren't just wasted gold to get you through the early game. Most significant change is that a Bracer can be built into an Astrolabe, and that sheildbreaker is a low risk, fast payoff item that can be upgraded with recipes now. But they also made a ridiculous new support item. http://forums.heroesofnewerth.com/showpost.php?p=13881820&postcount=1

Wow. I knew the song and I like it a lot, but I never made this connection. It's eerie how similar it is. The screeches at the beginning even remind me of the screeches mother brain makes at the beginning of the fight...

Registering games gives you coins. You can spend these coins on nintendo merch. On top of that, if you collect a certain quota of coins in a single year, you get a free collectable gift without using any of your coins at all.

Does this mean "We have no idea how long it will take us to re-code the entire game from the ground up"? Or perhaps the following announcement will be "Good news everyone! Heroes of Newerth is now FREE TO PLAY! Quickly nab your nicknames because we lost all your login info, statistics, and DLC." Maybe both!

ARG. okay doing it

Wowza. From registering my 3DS, syncing with the shop, and registering my OOT, I jumped instantly from not being anywhere close to being a platinum member to clearing the bar. BAM! 240 points! Now, how long does this thing take to charge. I'm getting antsy.
