The final conclusion on the Hon Vs LoL debate…..the heir of the throne..the moment of truth…..

WILL NOT BE DISCUSSED TODAY TO BRING YOU THIS SPECIAL PRESENTATION……

….. a whiny read of me whining on why we should whine on the fate of these games…

Ah, the PS1, the greatest and the godfather of the gaming console. When the PS1 first went out, it was indeed a world of wonder. Instead of all games simply going up, down, left or right (although Mario was the shit, it’s really not that fun when everything’s in 2D)- you can actually now look around you! Although the greatest of the PS1 games did go on to PS2 and even PS3, there were those amazing games that just didn’t make it. Why? I do not know. By the way, if you never really played on a PS1- you missed out on a LOT dude- a whole LOT.

The biggest disappointment I would say is the fact the one of the greatest games ever made- FF7, is being CONSIDERED for a remake. Sure it’s better to keep the original as it is but COME ON- Cloud and Sephiroth in High Def?? The fighting and the original storyline- in High Def? Moreover, the original was more than a decade ago- people do feel nostalgic over time. Sure you can download it and play on an emulator…but High Def graphics- the game deserves more than “consideration”. Hope and pray that Square actually finalizes whether or not it’s gonna finalize the remake- we’re all in the dark here.

just consider …from this…

to this…

yea…no challenge there…

The second biggest waste had to be Crash Bandicoot. Now, if you have not played Twisted Metal, fine..you really missed out. But if you haven’t played Crash- ANY of the Crash games, then you’re a FAG. You don’t have to like it, you just have to had played it- although everyone loved it. I mean COME ON–look at him..

Now, this game series goes on #2 because well, it actually did make it to the PS2. Crash was one of the BIGGEST hits on PS1 and it was inevitable to have gone into PS2. But what happened in the PS2- THEY F***** it up. Naughty dog sold it to Vivendi, who really did a good job F***ING it up, and then focused on the Jax series. Even though you can download this on the PS3, there was no progress in the Crash series whatsoever. Humungous waste of these 4 awesome games.

.

Another classic favourite was the Duke Nukem series. 8 years. It took them 8 years to come up with a shitty Duke on the Xbox arcade- what kind of heresy is that? How can they just dump out Duke? I mean pig cops? Going to the future where there are no men and only women slaves? Awesome shooter game? EIGHT years? REALLY? Duke would be pissed…

Other really good games of old were the Army Men series- especially the air attack series. Yes, yes a bit cartoony and all, but that was the time when none of us hit puberty.

A more hardcore game was Metal Slug X- that game was pure fun. Ape Escape another hit which really revolutionized using the analog and well –was fun. It could be understood why this game didn’t make it, but it still could have. Time crisis and the sensor gun- why did it stop there? Rayman and Spyro really took a turn for the worst as it basically went into oblivion but it’s good to know that Spiro’s making a comeback for old times’ sake- the Gex series sadly did not make it. A few other games that well, died out were Kings Field and the most awesome brawler game ever- Fighting Force.

Remember this?

By the way, for those who loved Twisted Metal, there’s a new one coming on the PS3 next year. I would have included this game at the top of my list if they just let it die down. One of the best vehicular combat games all time- had it rough on the PS2; people barely knew about it, but thankfully making a comeback on the PS3. Hope we haven’t grown too old for a good ol’ car rampage..

Tune in next time for the real conclusion to HoN vs LoL….sorry just needed time to get ahead of the manga- if you know what I mean…..actually, I don’t even know what I mean..anyways …chao all…

HoN vs LoL

The REAL moment of truth…

by the way..sweet tooth says hi……

HoN vs LoL

Part III- part I

So far we…or should I say…I have come to the conclusion that HoN beats LoL in graphics and then that LoLs gameplay is a little bit more for the “average” person while HoN is for more serious players. Just reminding everyone that almost everything I’m saying here is not only my opinion..it is also the opinion of a LOT of people online and a LOT of people I know that play both games.

So, apart from throwing out your balls out in the battle field or keeping them well-protected (somewhat), what other gameplay differences are there? But before I say anything, I would like to congratulate both games on revamping their hotkeys. In DotA the hotkeys were all over the F***ing place. I mean seriously WTF! Thanks to whoever’s the one who gave the GENIUS idea to group all the important keys up into one area of the keyboard and not have your fingers spread out like Carmen Electra’s legs; players don’t have to get arthritis no more- not at least till they are 38. When the games first came out all I could hear people talk about was “Oh dude..man…dude man…man..like dude…the hotkeys are Q W E R man…so easy now man…sweet..” Hotkeys were so important when you had to play in gaming cafes- would take forever to change from the defaults.

Aite, so back to gameplay.  One huge difference in both games is the extra summoner spells that you can use in LoL. Apart from the main spells, each player gets a chance to select two extra spells in champion/hero select to compliment the champion/hero. Spells range from immediate mana, just a bit, a full revive with no death cooldowns, a short wide-area vision spell and other seemingly weak spells. However, there are some spells that are all too useful- an immediate heal for a decent amount of health, ignite- for those champions are  almost dead but never die; it’s a small DOT, there’s a short flash which becomes too strong in the hands of a few heroes and then there’s exhaust- 3 second slow AND BLIND. Another thing in LoL is the grass. The grass makes you invisible and this is perfect for ganks- not like hiding at the “secret shops”. Moreover, LoL has recall which lets you teleport to your base after 8 untouched seconds from anywhere on the map. You don’t have to run ALL the way back to the frekin base. Anyways here are pics of the base…as you can see in the LoL one, there are D & F spells which are the 2 extra spells. Both LoL bases are the same even though there’s a good and evil in LoL while HoN stretches on that fact with a kick ass base.

These extra added bonus gives the gameplay a more diverse feel to it…people can choose whatever of the 9-10 spells they want. I can’t really give Hon points because LoL can be played by noobs…it’s unfair to the MAJORITY…..THE OVERWHELMING MAJORITY…of the population  *ahem cough ahem*

Hon 1  LoL 1

Tune in to next time for the over-worded finale of this final debate…hmmm production went into a fourth sequel eh…next time-this whole boring fight over which COMPLETELY different game is better…WILL BE OVER. Can’t believe people read this shit…just play both games FFS. Pay for Hon and play LoL free….geeez. It’s not like you have to choose which one to buy.

since this is technically the last part- I reckoned it would be best for this to be a 2-parter…..like Hollywood cliffhangers..hehe

see you next time for Part II of Part III of Hon vs LoL

HoN vs LoL

Part II

Aite, let’s see where we left off. So far HoN takes the lead with its amazing graphics. Yea that’s pretty much it. Not much for words eh? Now let’s have a look at gameplay; both in game and general opinions.

Back then, when there was only DotA, whenever me and my friends played with these Arab kids, we always used to get analed; and not just with normal sized objects, I’m talking massive throbbing black manhood. See, against my own group of friends I used to own- they just sucked balls, but I was still really crap when I played any proper match against any proper people. DotA was just something that took a decent amount of time to practice- it wasn’t really for noobs or semi-noobs. HoN pretty much took the same stance- it is still the exact gameplay DotA was- because this was what it wanted to be. LoL on the other hand was more kind to noobs that didn’t get to join in group DotA fights because they were not good enough. LoL is not too easy, it is just a lot easier than DotA. You won’t have to spend at least a couple of years, that is if you are playing from scratch, to be able to do anything useful. It would take you probably a couple of months and a few dozen games meaning that all those people with fingers as slow as f***; timing as good as f*** and coordination as bad as f*** can play.

DotA wasn’t very kind to noobs. Some of the main aspects of this was the whole denying concept- which took me forever to get a hang of, even in DotA. Denying leaves your opponent penniless and short on a level or two. One would need a great deal of experience to have that natural timing, intuition and feel come to him; more so if you would be up against greats. Another thing was losing gold when you die. This means that you just can’t afford to keep on dying but would have to manage yourself pretty well. LoL on the other hand is more forgiving. It doesn’t have either of these in game. Hey, now isn’t that too easy? Well, the denying thing was just a bit too hard in the first place and the gold, well, it leaves out one aspect of DotA and HoN gameplay that just really pisses me off- the whole hit and run, hit and run thing. I mean WTF man, come and fight me like a man you faggoty SOB!! With LoL, EVERYONE gets to have balls the size of the South Park men (you know in the one where they put their balls in the microwave just to get testicular cancer so that they can smoke medicinal marijuana). With LoL, there is a lot of action involved. It’s always “BRING IT ON BITCH!” or “I will wipe the floor with your FACE, BiTcH!” Well, once they realised that they are actually losing the fight, THEN they simply run like faggots, but almost never run back. Those that do almost always trip over their own ass. The tanks in LoL simply run in like crazy f***s because they just don’t give a shit. It’s for the team and they’re not losing cash anyways. This whole concept actually makes the game a lot more fun instead of serious. Instead of always having to watch your own ass, you can just pull your pants down, expose your genitalia, and run like a Scotsman on coke right into your opponents. Oh yea and don’t forget the war paint.

What, what, what!! 600 words already??? And no gay-ass pictures??? Oh well, guess you’ll just have to tune in to part 3. I’m out of time for now. There’ll be pics next time.

…and to all a good night…

HoN 1- LoL 0

League of Legends vs Heroes of Newerth(LoL vs HoN) – the fight for the throne

Part I

Ahhhh, the ever never-ending question- LoL or HoN, which one shall eventually take Dota’s throne? I would first like to go on and say that Dota was, is and forever will be the father of death match RPGs, even long after its player base drops drastically. HoN and LoL are basically the same game but in two completely different worlds; kinda like having a boxer and an artist twin- kinda. Well anyways this is gonna be an unbiased, hopefully many of you will agree, series of articles (most probably till part III) which will try to settle or unsettle the question once and for all. This site is pretty much HoN based so it’s time for a little introduction to LoL. Another little title biter, LoL is currently leading the way- CURRENTLY. Believe it or not HoN fans, but it’s true. This DOES NOT mean that it’s better than HoN, but has more players patronizing the game more.

Aite so just what’s the difference? Well, over the course of the week, I’ll be describing the most important aspects of the games that appeal to gamers. I’m not gonna go into unnecessary crap, just what people would want to see and play in a game- with a bit of other perks that people would prefer a game to have.  First up would be the graphics. Needless to say, graphics have to kick ass.

Let’s see how this goes. The people at S2 made sure that HoN looked good- real good.

I think Caruso says it all. Anyways…yea…Real, real good. One would see that amount of effort and detail it took to make graphics that improved upon Dota- this good. Now what about LoL?

Is he going to hug or bitchslap him?

Or let me put up a more…..revealing one…

Whooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa….!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

…….OK MAYBE THAT WASN’T NECESSARY

Point being, HoN is way more advanced in graphics than LoL. Still doesn’t mean LoL graphics are bad, they still are an improvement from Dota, but COME ON… there is no challenge there.

But HoN is too dark and …well, emo…

WHAT?!?!    But it’s true, some people DO say this….LoL on the other hand is more bright and happy…

But bright and happy is called GAY…..some people do say this as well….

What I’m trying to say is that those are just aspects of the graphics….one is darker, sexier and the other is kiddish and well…40 year old virgin wearing nothing but huge nipples the size of my shoulder and some blue kilt kinda like….I am not judging people by what kinda graphics they like; all I’m saying is that when it comes to graphics, it is HoN- hands down. Even though most LoL players have no graphics complaints, it still cannot compare to HoN in any way.  And for any gamer, when a game has outstanding graphics, it is a sign that you do not F*** with it.

HoN -1    LoL- 0
