„I think it’s something that I’ve always been interested in, but it wasn’t until I got into college and met some people doing it that I actually took the plunge. I’m not even sure if I can classify my first „outing“ as a cosplay, I threw some stuff together and did a Lady Vader back in 2012. I had fun though, and got a good look at what other people were producing, asked a lot of questions, and thought ‚yeah, I really need to do this right
At this year’s Heroes of the Dorm tournament, DualShockers spoke to one of the casters of the event, Albert „Halorin“ Haily III, to discuss his personal journey on becoming a caster, his dream opportunity, and his prediction for the winner of Blizzard’s collegiate eSports tournam
Needless to say, Université Laval was a powerhouse after being undefeated throughout the 2018 Heroes of the Dorm National Championships. That doesn’t mean that they didn’t have a hard time with the series‘ underdogs, University at Buff
AHIII: Blizzard had contacted me last year about being a caster for Heroes of the Dorm and that was a dream come true. I like to think they were happy enough with my performance last year to invite me out this year (laughs) . I, very much, hope to be invited to do more things; I would love to. At this point, casting is in my DNA now. I got into it for personal reasons and now I can see an avenue where I potentially could see this more as an ongoing profess
Distributors clearly have a lot to gain from online multiplayer games, especially with the popularity of microtransactions and the increasing popularity of DLC—more maps, more costumes, and more weapons often tempt gamers into paying more. This works well for free-to-play games like League of Legends or other MOBAs, but announcing DLC before a MOBA game beginner guide’s release often draws criticism. Many players argue that paid DLC encourages some developers to omit necessary or desired player content for higher prof
The 2018 Heroes of the Dorm National Championships have come to a close. The best four teams in the tournament — which includes Université Laval, University of Kentucky, University at Buffalo, and California Polytechnic State University – Pomona — got on stage at the Blizzard Arena in Los Angeles to play some competitive Heroes of the Storm to become this year’s champions for the collegiate eSports tournament and earn enough cash to cover the rest of their tuit
„Right now, I’m gearing up for Megacon. I’ll bring my Inara cosplay and I’ll be doing a Popstar League of Legends group cosplay with several friends of mine. I’m a HUGE Firefly fan so I’m pretty pumped to get some autographs! As for the rest of the year, Janna will most likely mosey out of my labyrinth for Metrocon and Supercon. I also love Holiday Matsuri, it’s just a really fun smaller convention that just feels so warm and friendly, I’ll be going back to it for sure again this year. We have yet to get a hotel room for Dragoncon (much to my dismay), so I’m not sure of the status on that venture y
Not only have we gotten two Avengers movies in the last five years, The CW has aired yearly crossover events since 2014, and Netflix even debuted their own small screen superhero team-up this summer with The Defenders . Ultimately, the team-up aspect of Justice League is something comic book TV and film fans have seen many times now, though not necessarily with these exact characters. While there’s undoubtedly excitement each time a team-up event occurs in either film or TV, Justice League simply using different heroes in a story we’ve seen before – even though they’re unquestionably some of the most beloved and storied heroes in comics – isn’t quite enough anym
There are an absurd number of great games that hit the Game Boy during its dominate run, so it was hard narrowing it down to just five of our personal favorites. That said, these games are mentioned because they stood the test of time and are still just as much fun to pickup and play as they were when they first arrived on the sc
Most early video games, such as Pong in 1972, featured multiplayer modes. This was likely due to expectations from analog games, which were almost always played in person with friends and family. Early multiplayer modes were often turn-based, co-op arcade games—when one player died, another would take over or continue until all lives were extinguis
Certainly, at the end of the day, movie and TV viewers can – and should – like what they like. In terms of which event, either Justice League or Crisis on Earth-X, was more successful in achieving what they set out to do, however, the Arrowverse crossover clearly pulls ahead. It’s much more consistent in tone than Justice League , a surprising feat given it unites four different TV shows, and ups The CW’s superhero game, improving upon crossovers that came before it. All in all, Crisis on Earth-X is a better, more cohesive team-up event than Justice Leag
