There's a good reason why they don't have the Spartans fight the Covenant in that video.

Live action Covenant creatures are so badly designed, they would look like relatives of Barney the purple dinosaur.

It's a pretty fantastic video representation of a game that have graphics that looked like it came from first generation iOS devices.

Okay it's not a fantastic video. It's very amateur. Like a student's demo reel. The only thing going for it is the latest rendering technologies. The animators themselves however…

Riot is copying the hell out of Dota 2 so doing tribunal first is not that significant.

Plus, Riot has worthless piece of garbage Pendragon for a community manager. Totally cancels out any good thing about their community efforts.

Luke, I'd also like to point out a huge difference between Steam sales and console sales.

When Steam puts up a sale, people buy thinking that one day they'll be playing that game eventually.

Or do us all a favor and don't look at Steam and then die a natural death.

Seriously, some companies really do need to undergo natural selection. I'm tired of these dinosaurs and pillars of the gaming community. Pillars of buildings that are due for demolition because everyone with common sense have already moved to…

Hey Korea. Easiest way to make your kids pretty is choose who to breed with.

If you hate the lidless eyes of your race, go to my country and breed with us. We'll give you all the lids and pointy chins you'll need. Unless of course you guys are culturally discriminate with who you date.

No. The trick they're making is to let you buy and play more games so that you will get enough cards from them to be able to trade for and complete a set of your choice should you find the people who are willing to trade the missing cards with you.

If it's old enough to emulate on a PC, it's almost as illegal as making a CD music compilation. Just don't turn it into something you can make money out of.

At least you're not in Singapore where the police state encourages kids deputized as junior policemen to rat out on their family members who pirate software,…

Dear console gamers,

You're all filthy casuals, real gamers play Dota 2.

But seriously, Whenever I think of League of Legends lore, I just see it as a mix of pop culture, Anime, Tolkien fantasy and fan art looking official art.

I mean, come on... big headed midgets that look like they came out of Sanrio mixed with Playboy mansion Halloween…

I believe Destructoid and Rock, Paper, Shotgun are more into Dota 2 than Kotaku. I hope they get a Dota 2 player as a writer in Kotaku soon.

You're doing it wrong. To counter a Dota article, you need to release an infographic the way Riot and Mc Donald's does.

Kotaku is mostly American.

Good sir, I believe the expression you were going for was:

I believe it's a new kind of game release where the incremental development badly needs the help of the gaming community while at the same time, it cannot be released with all the features because of a likelihood of a system (software/infrastructure) failure.

Dota 2 was never called Defense of the Ancients 2. Valve was holding off on what to call it at the time.

It was probably a clever maneuver to avoid future problems with the name that they chose to simply name it Dota 2. Kids in remote third world countries know the game only as Dota. Makes perfect sense really.

Jason, please let me correct you on this.

Icefrog is merely the latest developer in charge of Dota Allstars. He did not take over immediately after Guinsoo. I believe there was one guy before him but they overlapped at working on the game.

As a sign of respect to Valve, Dota Allstars and its original playerbase, I wish the media and new players stopped calling it MOBA CHUMBA WUMBA.

Back in my day, the poorer kids could only afford Gobots.

Korean women only exist to pleasure Korean men.
