I know what you mean, but if you google differences between DotA and LoL you'll find people say Skillshots in League =[ hence the comparison. Read more

There already is a Chinese port of League of Legends, Tencent runs it! Read more

art style and the play style. Though DoTA and LoL play very similarly, this game like LoL has more skill shots

***before anyone complains,*** I know that DoTA has skillshots and loads of them, but the prevailing assumptions about the difference between the two is that LoL has skillshots and DoTA doesn't. Read more

I have a similar car-crash fascination with them except i'm not horrified. They say imitation is the best form of flattery and who knows, some of them may make improvements.

This one however, doesn't. I mean, the way the characters are broken down in type makes it easier for newbies to pick characters and learn the Read more

I'm not sure, I was messing around a unit given to an indie dev. I've asked MS for a loaner unit for review purposes and should have something on it as soon as possible. Read more

China embraces loads of American-made stuff that American's don't really care for. but then again, the american's that don't care for said stuff are a vocal minority =[ Read more

That's exactly what I'm hoping for! In the last article about the Xbox One launch, commenters were all like You're biased about Xbox etc and you look down on MS, but they fail to see the beauty of a good launch and strong sales. MS has heavily invested in reaching to Chinese indie devs. Many of the titles launched on Read more

There's English!!! You have to go deep into the menus. But even then most of the content will still be in Chinese T-T Read more

It's interesting to see how COD will break into the Chinese market. Looking at how limited iQue's software line-up is for the 3DS is quite telling. It'll be up to MS to constantly attempt to push more content on the the Xbox One.

Everything you're saying is correct but through man on the street interviews Sony has this Read more

I disagree that MS actually cared about the successful launch in this region. I would say they lucked out. Not bashing them, in fact very happy they're doing well. The better they do, the better it is for gaming as a whole. The reason why I say I disagree is because the launch titles they've lined up aren't that Read more

The problem is that the numbers aren't coming from the retailer. It's coming from MS' China partner. Doing business in China is tricky as in there's little transparency. I really want the number to real, that MS really sold this amount of Xbox's! I gave them the benefit of the doubt in terms of people showing up on Read more

There is massive interest for Pokemon and the like. You are correct to think that Nintendo would own the market from Nostalgia alone. The problem with Nintendo is that they really don't have a China plan. They launched something called iQue which is very different from what MS and Sony did. iQue is a wholly owned Read more

Sadly no WOW happy meal toys. In fact, Chinese happy meal toys suck! You have to spend extra money to get the good toys!

Currently the toys are One piece toys and they cost 2 dollars with a big mac meal/ Read more

at the same time, your wife will never see them since Chinese players play in China, separated from everyone else who plays wow. Read more

well... it could be that they want to capture a new market, new players that aren't already subscribed to their products. Read more

Actually...in terms of banners, 1/2 the restaurant was Horde and the other half was Alliance, but in terms of the artwork and etc, it was mixed. Read more

Well...People steal everywhere. There was a guy sitting there making sure no one ran off with the hammer. Read more

doesn't say, the card says pets! I wonder if there will be any special "mcDonalds pets, like Grimace! Read more

I agree...But i'm not in-charge of that. Spam whoever is in charge! Read more
