    DOTA? Nope. Well. Maybe.

    DOTA was a big deal, it took a popular RTS and rode it's coat-tails to success. The big winners for this Action RTS RPG MMO Game for Personal Computers is the play-times, you can play it for 15 min to 45 min per match. The graphics are great (comparable to Heroes of Newerth) and the gameplay mechanics are NEW; the itemization is great and easy to access via the 1 shop menu. There are many heroes (lots), lot's of purchasable things, and a great PVP.NET system to play with friends.
     
    Things this game lacks: shoddy matchmaking, bloom effects, in-game voice chat, and kind of a ridiculous ratio on free game points (get from winning/playing) and bought items (cash money).
     
    Overall a great game to hop into once in awhile or play with friends. It will also make you angry/happy.

Things of that nature made me question Riot moving out of beta and into the ...

      Soon you'll be a monster, too 0

      People who play League of Legends are an angry bunch, by now you must of heard. Being one of the worst online communities in history is at this point both an understatement and undeniable fact, compelling even Riot Games to take action against its players' uncontainable ego. They've actually added features designed solely to discourage the incessant negativity, recently awarding virtual ribbons to 'friendly' gamers (heads up -- they aren't). Maybe the game isn't fun, you wonder, but then judging...
