With MOBAs, they would just get steamrolled for the entire TNT, which would not be very fun to watch.

They could set up four PCs, join different teams and then proceed to troll relentlessly for 90 minutes. Whoever causes the most rage-quits wins.

Knowing the MOBA communities, I support this idea.

I really don't think it would work out well if they did one right now. They can pull it off with Starcraft because Brad has knowledge of it so at least it could be entertaining. With MOBAs, they would just get steamrolled for the entire TNT, which would not be very fun to watch. If they took the time to learn a bit about DOTA 2 first, then did a TNT it would be good though. It's just finding the time to learn it in their already busy schedule.

Barbarian first, then a mage class second. That's what I usually do.

I wish there was Necromancer. I want to play a cruise control class again. Build skeletons, kill everything with no effort.

Both expensive and "meh" so not really worth it.

Making things accessible and affordable will stop piracy. The game industry is already starting to get this, the (Non-RIAA) music industry is also starting to get this. I'll be the first to admit I used to be a huge pirate. Now I own over 200 different games on Steam and have a subscription to a music streaming service. Make it easy to access and don't make it obscenely expensive and people will pay. 
 
The MPAA (and the RIAA) and the people they represent don't get it. Making people have to jump hoops (or wait for unexplained reasons in the case of most non-American countries when it comes to content) will just discourage people from getting a service and send them toward piracy.  Just look at the recent rumour that Hulu may require a cable subscription, most people will cancel and go back to piracy rather than get a cable subscription they didn't want in the first place. In recent days it has been seen that the MPAA and cable companies are actively trying to stop technological progress so that they can control everything (See their opposition to the Google Fiber Optic internet initiative because they claim it enables piracy). All this will do is discourage people from buying their services. I certainly wouldn't if I was American.

What??? This actually sounds interesting. I was expecting it to be the same old boring stuff they always do.

I think it's $9.50 here in Saskatchewan. I think it's different for each province in Canada though. I think it is around $9.40 in Alberta. In the East it's higher, but it costs a lot to live in some places there, though it isn't exactly cheap here anymore. 
 
Edit: There's no way you can live off that here, even with a full-time job. Apartments have raised in price every year for the last while (I think the average is like $1200/month now, maybe a bit less), and housing prices have tripled. We bought our house for ~$100000 in the early 90s and now it is worth almost $325000, and it isn't even a fancy house and it isn't in a new area. Houses in new areas go for almost half a million. My brother bought a condo and it was around $260000.

Forza 4. It's the only thing I use my Xbox for. Though I may play through Red Dead Redemption again. That game is so good.

Twin Peaks. I have mentally rewritten the ending to not be a cliffhanger, because that really bums me out the way it ended.

Oh, that ending. Why did they do that. sigh 
 
For me, I miss watching Hogan's Heroes. It was on this retro channel every morning for a few years and I loved watching it before school. That show is so good. I intend to buy every single season of it.

Lasso people off of motorcycles. It would be hilarious. And be able to lasso from a car. Instead of hiring a hooker then running them over to get your money back, just lasso them and drag them behind your car.
