Do NOT buy From Dust

I recently pre-ordered From Dust from Steam because after watching some gameplay footage from the xbox 360 version I thought that the game would be excellent once it had mouse controls. When I finally played the game, I found out that they in fact did not really make mouse controls for it and instead made the mouse act like it was an analogue stick (which it is not). Other people complain about the DRM in the game, but for me the real problem is that they never made the correct version of the game, the one that you can play with a point and click interface.

I encourage everyone that reads this to never buy the game From Dust unless they fix the controls.

Diablo 3 Beta soon (tm) and Gameplay Preview

If there's one game I'm really looking forward to it's Diablo 3. I've really been wanting to play a Diablo game with my friends for a very long time and I'm excited that it's finally getting close to release. The beta is rumored to be coming out any time with the most recent batch of info about the game becoming public in this last week. To celebrate, here's a video from G4 showing some gameplay previews from the upcoming game.

League of Legends Dominion

I know I haven't been posting on here as much as I used to, but there have been a lot of big announcements in gaming lately. Today Riot released a video announcing a new game mode for League of Legends called Dominion, which seems a lot like a king of the hill kind of game. It should provide some interesting new gameplay experiences for people that enjoy League of Legends but were getting tired of the standard lane gameplay. Without further ado, here's the video from Riot's youtube channel.
