Blizzard: 'We have the freedom to bring any character we want into Heroes of the Storm'
Jun 30
// Chris Carter
Destructoid: Let's start out with a simple question -- what inspired Blizzard to create Heroes of the Storm? Kaeo Milker: It all started out as just a cool way to show off what the StarCraft II Editor was capable of for BlizzCon back in 2010. We'd just launched StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty and set a few very small teams of developers loose on creating fun mod maps for the show. These teams built several maps, and we selected four to bring to BlizzCon, including one that was an homage to Warcraft III Defense of the Ancients that we called, "Blizzard All Stars." The expectation was that we'd release these maps to StarCraft II shortly after the show, but something special happened with Blizzard All Stars and the feedback we received changed the course of things. There was so much excitement about the game from our team, from Blizzard, and from the BlizzCon attendees that we had to take a step back and reconsider how much additional work should go into the map before its release. We ended up holding it back and we assigned a handful of developers to continue working on it en route to BlizzCon 2011, where we showed it again as, "Blizzard DOTA." There were new heroes, a redesigned map, and some different takes on game mechanics, and we got even more positive reinforcement on its potential. This growing excitement from internal folks as well as our community led to some very intense conversations about the scope of the game and how we should approach it. Some serious discussions spawned where we started asking questions like, "What if we ignore the recent games in this space and approach this as a reimagining of what those early mods could have become?" Those conversations led to a decision to make a standalone game where we'd throw out the expectations and rules, and simply make the game we wanted to play. That decision was super scary in its departure from the norm, but also very liberating, and we ended up calling that game Heroes of the Storm when we re-announced it at BlizzCon 2013. D: Tell us a bit about the beginnings of the MOBA genre and its origins. How did the team react to this level of engagement out of a use map settings creation? K: The genre originated all the way back with our own mapmaking community's Aeon of Strife UMS maps from the original StarCraft. Those maps set the stage for the now-familiar single-hero control and multi-lane map layouts that later inspired mapmakers in Warcraft III to create offshoots including the immensely popular Defense of the Ancients maps. Along the way, many of the RPG-like mechanics that were core to Warcraft III's gameplay like individual heroes, unlocking and empowering abilities via hero leveling, and item-based stat manipulation were creatively used to evolve the gameplay from Aeon of Strife into that of DOTA and everything that's come since. It's inspiring to look back on the game genres that have incubated and spawned from the Blizzard mapmaking communities. The team responsible for Heroes of the Storm also made the original StarCraft as well as Warcraft III, and many of the people working on Heroes of the Storm today were either here at Blizzard or active in our communities when this all started. We've all watched this evolution with equal amounts of respect and admiration for everything our players have created. D: Can you give us a rundown of what to expect going forward after launch, both in terms of timelines and content? K: Historically for our team, launching a game has meant that it is "done," but with Heroes, launch is truly just the beginning. The content and features in the game today represent the foundation of a game that we expect to be in constant evolution moving forward, and we have a growing team that's been refining our tools and processes to allow us to create and deliver more stuff, more often. We're moving into a phase now where we'll be bringing new heroes into the game every 3-4 weeks and are planning for incremental changes and additions to the game even between hero releases. We currently have several battlegrounds in development and we'll continue to bring them into the game multiple times a year, starting with the Eternal Conflict release where we'll introduce a collection of Diablo-themed battlegrounds, heroes, skins, mounts, and events over the next few months. There's a lot more in store that I can't talk about yet, but know that we have some amazing things in development and our team is just as excited about this game as our players are! D: What niche do you believe Heroes fulfills in the current MOBA scene today? K: Heroes of the Storm is Blizzard's take on a genre that has been around for over a decade. We've set out to capture and accentuate the elements of these games that we found most compelling, while improving or eliminating the things that we found detracted from the fun. We approach this process with all of our games from the perspective of gamers, and again, we set out to build the games that we want to play. The game we created features some pretty dramatic departures from the norm like action-packed 20 minute games, an ever-growing pool of objective-based battlegrounds, team leveling, per-hero talent trees that let players modify each hero's playstyle, and of course, real Blizzard heroes and worlds – all wrapped up in the fun, light-hearted humor we're known for. It's free to play, so I invite everybody to check it out and see if it's the kind of game they want to play, too. D: What is the current state of the MOBA genre financially as a whole? Is there room for more major releases? K: I'm much more of a development guy than a business guy, but clearly there is a ton of interest in this genre and there has been since the Warcraft III days. I'm excited about that interest not because of some potential financial opportunities, but because it represents players who might be open to checking out our game and I think we're doing something really different with Heroes that can build on the things they've loved from past games, while also addressing concerns from players who may not have liked those other games. Ultimately, I think there's always room for great games. Our focus is to make the best games we possibly can, and history has shown us that if we stay true to that goal and uphold our commitments to quality and fun, success is within our reach. D: Who is your biggest competition currently, and what do they do right? K: We've always looked at other game companies less as competition and more as part of a community that's pushing game development, technology, user experiences, gameplay, genres, and the industry forward together. Coexisting in a creative space like gaming can help lead to refinement and innovation, and that's a very healthy thing for us both as developers, and as gamers. We've clearly benefited from the things other developers have learned with similar games – the right choices as much as the wrong choices – and as we're starting to see already, they will in turn benefit from the things we're trying as well. D: What efforts are you going through in terms of growing Heroes as an eSport? K: This year will be a time where we establish Heroes as an eSport alongside establishing Heroes as a game. We're off to an amazing start with Heroes of the Dorm, where we brought college teams together from across the US and Canada to battle it out for full college tuition. That event cemented the legitimacy of Heroes as an eSport given the intense competition and its undeniable strengths as a spectator event. The recently-announced 2015 Road to BlizzCon will be the professional extension of that path we've started down, and we'll all get to watch the very best teams from each of our regions work their way through their regional qualifiers and semi-finals en route to the ultimate global showdown at BlizzCon. Like the game, our eSports support will be in constant evolution and I'm very excited to see what develops. D: Walk us through a basic outline of what it takes to create a hero from start to finish. K: Hero creation is a very involved, multi-month process that relies heavily on iteration tied to ideas and feedback from many people across our team, and even across Blizzard. It all starts with paper design, where a Hero Designer comes up with a written pitch for the hero, its playstyle, and its kit. After several rounds of feedback and refinement, that paper design gets approved for prototyping. Our tools allow our Tech Designers to stand up a first playable version of the hero with placeholder art, sounds, and effects very quickly and an exhaustive process of playtesting and iteration begins amongst our design team. This process can span several weeks, with constant reaction to feedback every step of the way. Once the design team is feeling good about a hero's progress, it graduates to team playtesting. These tests take place several times per week and several hundred of our team members and support personnel are invited to participate and provide feedback to help further refine the hero's design. Another multi-week reaction cycle begins based on that ongoing feedback, and only after successfully making it through the team playtesting phase does a hero graduate to full production where we unleash the full power of the development team on its finalization. During production, our art, user interface, writing, sound, localization, and quality assurance teams begin their respective processes creating, refining, and testing the version of the hero you'll eventually play in the game. Throughout the hero's journey, each developer bolsters their part of its creation with a ton of polish and love, and that really shows in the final product. D: Can you give us an idea of potential heroes or kits you've been working on for future patches? K: Sure, up next is…wait a sec…nice try! I can confirm that we're spending some time with Diablo heroes for the Eternal Conflict before returning to heroes from other game worlds. Beyond that, all I can say is that anything's possible – any hero from any Blizzard game, ever! D: As a follow-up, are you concerned that certain franchises like Warcraft may be overrepresented? K: We currently have a disproportionate number of Warcraft heroes, but more than anything that is a function of the abundance of incredible Warcraft heroes to pull from when we started out. Our goal moving forward is to bring in excellent heroes from all of our games – past, present, and future. We value variety tremendously in this game and are trying to provide players with a dynamic experience where they have choices to make which give them the ability to directly impact that experience. This starts with selecting the hero they want to play and continues with choices in skins, mounts, team compositions, battleground strategies, and talent builds. Be on the lookout for an ever-increasing number of non-Warcraft heroes coming into the game with our Eternal Conflict event starting later this month! D: What is one hero from the Blizzard universe that will absolutely not fit in Heroes of the Storm? K: So far, this hasn't been an issue. We have the freedom to bring any character we want into the game and enough flexibility in our game mechanics and design to re-interpret each one in a way that captures their essence while tailoring their gameplay for the best possible experience in Heroes. It's an amazing space to play around in and we're really enjoying this limitless potential. D: Finally, what is your favorite current hero? K: I love Kerrigan and have played her extensively since the first day of our Development Alpha. Her combo-driven, melee assassin kit brings out the overcommitting lunatic in me and I play her much more aggressively than perhaps any other hero in the game – for better or for worse. She's incredibly powerful early game and can scale really nicely into late game, especially when paired up with another hero to complement her kit (Tassadar is one of my favorite partners). Beyond her gameplay, I have a personal connection to the character dating back to my passion for the original StarCraft and leading through my 8+ year investment in producing StarCraft II. And I've been saying this a lot lately, but my daughter is even named Kerrigan! While Kerrigan is my all-time favorite, I've been maining Nazeebo lately and have him on the cusp of hitting Level 20. I relish the perfect Zombie Wall and am thrilled pulling off the well-timed Ravenous Spirit to clean up a team fight from afar after all of the enemy interrupts have been blown. Ayyyeeeee!!!

Heroes of the Storm's Butcher is another great addition
Jun 30
// Chris Carter
The Butcher is an interesting mix of styles, despite his labeled as an assassin. While he is big, he's not necessarily "tanky" in that he's an easy target while being focused. You also have to micromanage him at the start, as he needs to collect "meat stacks," power-ups dropped by enemy minions to charge up his attack power. Using the various talents acquired on your journey to level 20, you can reward yourself for constantly staying on top of your meat meter, with abilities like a higher meat cap and the ability to heal yourself from pickups. Or, you can simply build up your abilities. His standard "Q" is a straight line skillshot, and slows enemies in its path. It's very aggressive. You can chase down enemies, Q them, and a few seconds later, Q them again. Much like wandering with enemy stealth combatants unaccounted for, going solo with the Butcher roaming around isn't a great idea. This is exacerbated by his "E," which is a mad dash that grants him "unstoppable" status and stuns the enemy for a second after reaching his target. I actually found some neat ways to use this, like running away from enemies by targeting minions, or saving teammates who are being chased. It's also a dramatic move, with the target getting a demonic mark on their head and the Butcher giving in to his inner, terrifying bloodlust. It's powerful for sure, but it also has a long cooldown of 20 seconds. His "W" is probably his least interesting ability, as it can mark a target for a limited time which grants him health while attacking said marked enemy. I've found that for the most part in teamfights, the amount of healing involved isn't really sufficient enough to prevent you from dying, and it would have been more interesting if it gave teammates a low leech percentage (though you can spec it to heal more and grant movement speed). [embed]295040:59292:0[/embed] His ultimate (Heroic) powers are much more interesting. Furnace Blast is an area-of-effect (AOE) blast in a circle around him, and Lamb to the Slaughter chains an enemy to a hitching post for four seconds (it chains anyone in the radius at level 20). The first Heroic doesn't sound all that interesting, but it has a cool visual effect and can be used while charging with your "E," making it a bit more nuanced. The hitching post is my personal favorite, as it augments the Butcher's keen ability to kill lone heroes while they're hilariously chained in place. This works even better if you're ganking enemies with a partner like Nazeebo, who has enough time to set up his Zombie Wall. I also had a chance to test out the "Iron Butcher" skin as well as the "Butcher's Battle Beast" mount that's exclusive to his bundle. The mount isn't anything to write home about, as it's mostly just an existing Battle Beast with some iron armor added on top. It's exclusive to the bundle though, so some of you may want to spring for it. As for the Iron Butcher, it's a pretty safe choice, but it does fit the character and the fact that his face is covered does give him a new enough look compared to some of the other skins. While the jury is still out on whether or not the Butcher is balanced (it's the first day!), he certainly feels like it. To really capitalize with the hero you'll need to play your cards right, and with a distinct lack of escape abilities and the meat mechanic, players will need to master his ins and outs to truly perform. For now though, I'm happy with the results, and I'm tempted to work on my fifth master skin with him.

Review: RONIN
Jun 30
// Patrick Hancock
RONIN (PC)Developer: Tomasz Wacławek Publisher: Devolver DigitalMSRP: $12.99Released: June 30, 2015 RONIN uses a barebones and cliche story. The main character wants to avenge their father and does so by killing five targets. A photograph with all of the targets together, along with the father, is used as a loading screen, which leads to the assumption that they were close at one time. What happened between then and now isn't ever delved into, and the player is sort of left with little to no story to go off of. Just kill the targets, because dead father. Got it? Every target plays out exactly the same. Two stages of going around and hacking computers, then one stage with the target in it. This repeats every single time, with the exception of the final stage. Even the stages with different objectives play exactly the same way, so it hardly matters. Playing RONIN feels like playing the same mission over and over again, about twelve times. Each level even has the same three mini-objectives: don't kill any civilians, don't set off the alarm, and kill every enemy. If all three of these are completed, a skill point is awarded. This is the only form of character progression, and is essentially mandatory. The skills add combat techniques like throwing and recalling the sword or deploying a hologram. Certain skills are way better than others. For those who are about to play: get the skill that allows for hanging up unsuspecting enemies, then go for the one that allows teleporting to enemies. They are by far the best skills. [embed]294727:59273:0[/embed] There are two forms of gameplay: free form and turn-based. While outside of combat, movement is free form. Jumping uses the mouse and functions a lot like jumping in Gunpoint, for those familiar with the game. Holding the jump button brings up an adjustable arc, and releasing the jump button sends the player in that arc. However, unlike Gunpoint, this mechanic is incredibly awkward and never seems to work the way it should. When spotted by an enemy, turn-based combat begins. The game pauses and will show where the enemy will be firing, allowing the player to make a move accordingly. The player always moves first, so attacking at a guard who is about to fire works out just fine. The problem is that the only way to move is to jump. If the player is hanging from a ceiling and a guard is about to shoot them, it is impossible to just scootch a little bit to the right. The only option from hanging is to jump down, which isn't always a great option. Jumping on an enemy will stun them, forcing them to recover for two turns. Stunning an enemy also awards one point towards the Limit Break bar. This bar slowly fills up with action points as the player stuns or kills enemies. These points are used to utilize the acquired skills, or to use the Limit Break itself. If the bar completely fills up, the Limit Break is automatically activated, which allows two turns at once. Once used, the bar is completely drained. Most of the time, I would have much preferred to not use the Limit Break and instead use my skills to dispatch enemies. The issue is that jumping takes one action point to use, and if the player doesn't either stun or kill an enemy, that point is lost. Some skills, like throwing the sword, can only be activated mid-air for some reason. This means players have to waste an action point jumping, then next turn they can spend the two points it takes to throw a sword and complete the action. This essentially means it takes three skill points to use the skill instead of two, and can be quite frustrating. Battles are essentially puzzles to be solved by the player, and there is often only one real solution. Most rooms have one entrance, and from there it is a matter of figuring out how to hop around in the most efficient way. Players with different skills will approach a battle differently, but given a single set of skills, they will solve battles in just about the same way every time. There are also only four enemy types throughout the entire game, so battles are different ways of arranging the same thing. Despite the awkwardness of the jump and frustrating design decisions in many of the levels, every once in a while something beautiful happens. It happens when all the skills are used effectively and players actually feel like a Ronin warrior. These moments occur somewhat frequently, and do a lot of good to help alleviate the otherwise constant frustration of memorizing a level's solution. There are checkpoints throughout each stage, though it's not conveyed to the player where they are. They can be pretty generous at times, usually saving right before a battle. However I did encounter instances where the checkpoint left me in an inescapable position, forcing me to restart the level. At one moment, the game saved just as the alarm was going off, making it unavoidable. The game then crashed immediately afterwards. The option to go back to past checkpoints would be a very welcome addition. The last mission has zero checkpoints, and forces players to do the entire thing all at once. It's a great mission compared to all of the others, largely because it's actually somewhat different, but considering the amount of accidental deaths I've had on it alone, it's an asinine decision. There's also a New Game+ mode, which adds more difficulty to the stages. Behavior also seems to change, as guards that previously shot in a contiguous straight line now had upwards recoil. The problem is, there's no incentive to play New Game+. The standard campaign was already the same mission every time. Why do it again? There are no new skills to acquire, just an added challenge for those who are yearning for more of the same. While I played this game on PC, it is clearly designed for tablets. The user interface is awful, consisting of simple text and gigantic buttons. To perform any action, players must click on big floating circles above the object, whether it be to kill an enemy or ride an elevator. Sometimes players can tap the W key to perform an action, like moving the elevator up a floor, but other times it simply doesn't work, like when entering the elevator. It's gaudy and frustrating to have to click on these bubbles all the time. RONIN strives to achieve the level of masterful design of games like Gunpoint and Mark of the Ninja, but seems to have overlooked what made them so special in the first place. It has its moments of truly feeling like a badass, but they do not make up for the frustration of everything in between. [This review is based on a retail build of the game provided by the developer.]
Where are the other 46?
When I first saw RONIN, I thought I was looking at a mod for Gunpoint. The jumping mechanic appeared the same, the environments were almost identical, and the idea looked just about the same. Turns out, RONIN is not that...

Review: You Must Build A Boat
Jun 29
// Conrad Zimmerman
You Must Build a Boat (Android, iOS, PC) Developer: EightyEightGames Publisher: EightyEightGames MSRP: $2.99 (Android, iOS) / $4.99 (PC)Released: June 4, 2015 You must build a boat, and that's all there is to it. Building a boat means assembling a crew. Assembling a crew means exploring dungeons located at points along the river, which is what you'll spend pretty much all your time in the game doing. When attempting dungeon exploration, the player is presented with a view of their character running left to right through a tunnel. On the run, they'll be stopped by obstacles. Being stopped doesn't prevent the background from moving, and the character is dragged back to the left as long as they aren't running. Enemy obstacles push the player back faster by attacking. If they fall off the left edge of the screen, the run is over. Rather than engaging directly to surmount obstacles, the action is represented through puzzle gameplay. On the most basic level, the play will be instantly familiar to anyone who has experienced a "Match-3" game before. The player moves tiles to create matching lines of three or more. Upon making a match, the connected tiles disappear, tiles above fall into the newly created space, and new tiles drop in to replace those lost. Each of the seven basic types of tiles produces a different effect when cleared. Some are directly used to pass obstacles and progress further, and their effects are wasted when cleared with nothing to use them on. Some have a chance to add special tiles to the grid, which provide one-time use effects when clicked. Others provide no immediate benefit but serve as resources back on the boat, not to mention occupying valuable real estate within the puzzle better served by more urgently needed tiles. Clearing groups of more than three tiles at a time multiplies the effectiveness of the tiles. In YMBAB, tiles are moved as entire rows and columns, wrapping around the edges of the grid. This particular method of movement is a bit more interesting than, say, simply switching the positions of two neighboring tiles. It could have an impact on strategy by allowing a tile at the bottom of the grid to move to the top and drop down to pair more easily with others, or anticipating groupings on opposing sides. That is assuming that you had time to actually think about the actions being taken, which is almost never the case. The near-constant pressure of needing to find a relevant match to clear an obstacle just doesn't allow for it. It does, however, offer a lot of opportunities to create matches once the player gets accustomed to visualizing the whole board and eliminates the risk of a situation where no combinations can be made. The game's tutorial makes it all look so easy. But once you're past the introductory runs which demonstrate how the different tiles work and the game no longer gives you a moment to look at what you're doing, there's no letting up. Speed becomes essential and there's no substitute for it. Intense, yes, but also exhausting. Dungeons are endless but increase their difficulty at regular intervals. Each new difficulty level reached provides a helpful opportunity to restore lost ground on the map while adding a new effect to tweak dungeon elements. Enemies may receive a boost in damage, chests become more difficult to open, or greater financial rewards could be bestowed, among other curses and boons. To reach new dungeons, specific objectives (assigned prior to entering) must be accomplished, with each adding some element to the construction of the boat when successful. Success has less to do with strategy than instinct, luck, and persistence. In attempting specific objectives, it's possible to have some forethought (a vendor added a few dungeons in allows for some adjustment of tile probabilities), but the player is always at the game's mercy to some extent. That said, it isn't cruel either. YMBAB only ever rewards the player for playing it, each run earning additional resources to spend on upgrades that make subsequent runs easier, making progress inexorable as long as the will to play persists. Back on the boat between runs, the player may purchase upgrades to attack and shield tiles, monsters captured in the dungeons can be trained to provide additional bonuses, and acquired crew members offer other benefits. The short round length and simple, lizard-brain gameplay makes it ideal for either the commute or the commode. Dedicating more attention to it than that may prove to be a bit tedious (not least because of the simple, repetitive music) and the design lends itself far better to touch controls for mobile devices than a mouse, so your better bet is to grab it on the phone and take it with you places. [This review is based on a retail build of the game provided by the developer.]
I mean, if you feel like it
The premise of You Must Build A Boat is simple, but unexplained. In order to travel up a river, you must build a boat. The why is, seemingly, irrelevant.
Review: Super Star Path
Jun 29
// Jed Whitaker
Super Star Path (PC)Developer: DYA Games Publisher: DYA GamesMSRP: $2.99Released: June 22, 2015 Flying through tons of enemies to get to a boss at the end of a level is nothing new, but how Super Star Path makes you get there is unique. Enemies approach from the top of the screen and are mostly static aside from some small animations. Shooting them causes them to blow up, taking any adjacent enemies of the same color with them. The final enemies to explode in a chain will cause nearby enemies of different colors to crystallize which then can't be cleared from the screen. After navigating through the maze-like wave of enemies on every level, a boss will appear. Boss battles play similarly to what you'd expect see in a bullet hell shooter; tons of bullets covering the screen with a boss that requires a lot of shots. Luckily the difficulty of a bullet hell boss can be curbed by purchasing upgradeable ships. After normal enemies are destroyed, they leave behind crystals that are used as currency to buy one of the 10 ships. Each ship has some kind of added benefit -- like being immune to certain attacks or increasing the value of crystals -- and stats that can be upgraded. During each stage, three special enemies appear that, when killed, drop upgrade points; one for speed, health, and damage. These upgrades can then be applied to each specific ship to power them up. Upgrading health allows ships to take up to five hits before exploding and is really necessary for some of the later boss fights, unless you're a veteran bullet hell player. Each level has its own unique twist. Some levels have added enemies flying at you, while others have mines that explode when you get too close or lasers that shoot in straight lines, clearing anything in their way. Figuring out which ship to use for each level feels almost Mega Man-like, as each stage's hazards have a ship that is immune to them. Every level also has three black bat enemies that drop green emeralds that are required for completing the game; thankfully, you can play levels over until you come across them without much trouble. While blasting through each 16-bit-esque level, an awesome soundtrack plays and the main character makes quips about what is happening around him. Something these quips include swearing, which may be off-putting to some, but they are far and few between. Nothing you wouldn't see on Dtoid every day. If anything, the swears add some flavor and character to the game, something most space shooters are lacking. Super Star Path nails the mixing of space shooter, roguelike, and puzzle genres in a way I didn't even know I wanted. Sadly, the whole experience is over within an hour. But at a measly three dollars, I find it hard to complain -- though it did leave me wanting more. If that's the only complaint I had with the game, it is easily recommendable. I just hope we get to see more space shooter puzzlers in the future! [This review is based on a retail build of the game provided by the publisher.]
Space puzzles, the final frontier
Space shooters used to be popular. Back in the 8-bit and 16-bit days, everyone knew Gradius and R-Type, amongst others. These days they are few and far between, at least quality ones. Sure Steam is flooded with them...
Review: Her Story
Jun 29
// Laura Kate Dale
Her Story (PC [reviewed], iOS) Developer: Sam BarlowPublisher: Sam BarlowMSRP: $5.99Released: June 24, 2015 From the first set of clips tagged murder, I had several options of which narrative thread to pull at first. Did I want to look for clips related to the victim's name first? Maybe I should try to track down the name of the person accused of the crime? Perhaps I wanted to go in a completely different direction and try to find references to the murder weapon on the database. Right from the start, several different avenues opened up and the number of narrative options to explore only expanded as I went deeper into the case. You can't organize clips you find chronologically or watch them in order without re-searching for them, meaning that a lot of the work of piecing the narrative together is down to you as the player. There's an in game application that will show you which pieces of the case you've watched and which you have not, but it's up to you to keep track of where each statement falls in the timeline of police interviews and how their placement fits together. Much of the mechanical challenge in the game comes from piecing the story together in a way that draws conclusions you're personally satisfied with. At around two hours in, I had seen enough that the game offered to let me see the credits roll, but I personally wanted to know much more of what was happening and ended up playing for around six hours on and off before I was truly satisfied with my understanding of the events. Others I know felt they knew everything they needed within half an hour. In terms of pacing, Her Story lasts however long you want it to in regards to narrative. Any time you feel the game is ready to end, you can draw your conclusions and walk away. Ultimately, Her Story is a really inventive way of exploring a narrative with an impressive number of twists and turns. Every time I thought I understood what was happening, a clip would become unearthed that turned my understanding of the case on its head. The story was personal, uplifting, dark, twisted, insightful, and unnerving all at once. I know we get a lot of talk of narrative-focused adventures as "not games," but this is a narrative that undoubtedly benefits from its open-ended interactive nature. If this isn't a perfect example of how video game interactivity can enhance a narrative, I don't know what is. Being able to unearth these twists out of order, rushing to understand what you've found, and bouncing tonally back and forth across a series of interviews truly is the perfect way to experience this skillfully crafted narrative. It's not a typical structure for a game, but the mechanics really do work in the context of the narrative. If you like the idea of an open-ended '90s murder mystery with no guarantee you'll find a solid answer to its mysteries, then I can't recommend this highly enough. Her Story is a spectacular video game, and one of the most gripping personal narratives I've experienced in some time. [This review is based on a retail build of the game provided by the developer.]

Spring break LIVE: 03.18.09
4:22 p.m. Still rocking on te beach. And it doesn't seem like the police are too busy. But that will probably change as the sun starts to set later. Right now, everyone is happy, smiling and getting along. The guy two camps away had some killer grilled steak and was very generous with all his neighbors. I'm losing portable battery power but the cam is still working!
2:35 p.m. Everything thing is in full swing. Lots of music, lots of skin. But I've got three words. Sunblock, use it. I don't know who thinks a sunburn is sexy.
1:33 p.m. The parking problem next to me was resolved without incident. The friends just parked on the other side... oops, more friends are trying to park and they are still complaining about the "first come, first served" guy. In other parking news, the parking permit police are walking down the beach checking cars. In years past there was some leniency about the permits but not this year.
1:04 p.m. Parking is starting to get tight. The group parked next to me are having a dispute with another driver. The first group is saving a parking spot for friends. However, the driver says, nope, first come first served. The crowds are growing. Horseshoes and footballs are flying. More and more people are in the water.
12:17 p.m. It's the third straight day of beautiful spring break weather. I decided to get to the J.P. Luby surf park area of the beach a little earlier today to see what I can see. There are already a bunch of people here but nothing like last night. Parking is readily available. Late arrivals have little choice to where on the beach they will end up.

The Fluval Nitrate Filter Cartridge is for use with the Fluval Advanced Filtration System. The G6 will remove up to 24000 mg of nitrate ion in fresh water aquariums, and the G3 will remove up to 13000 mg of nitrate ion Nitrate concentration should not exceed 20 mg/L in freshwater aquariums; Planted aquariums require approximately 5mg/L of nitrate as a source of nitrogen for healthy plant growth. In a 300 / 600 L freshwater aquarium with a 30 mg/L nitrate concentration, the use of the Fluval G6 Nitrate Filter Cartridge will quickly remove all excess of nitrate in a couple of days. If left in the filter it will then maintain a low nitrate level for a period of time that is strictly dependent on the type of aquarium (quantity and type of fish, type of fish food and so on). Nitrate is irreversibly trapped and bound and will not leach back into the water. The continuous use of the Fluval G6 Nitrate Filter Cartridge in aquariums with persistent nitrate problems is an effective solution against nitrate accumulation. If used as a quick solution to reduce elevated nitrate concentrations the cartridge can be removed once levels have normalized and then stored until required.

In the News: Chris Carpenter to pitch Saturday for Redbirds
Carpenter to pitch Saturday for Redbirds
The St. Louis Cardinals announced Thursday that 2005 Cy Young Award winner Chris Carpenter will pitch a rehab assignment for the Memphis Redbirds against the Oklahoma City RedHawks on Saturday. The game is set for 6:05 p.m. at AutoZone Park.
Carpenter, a 38-year-old right-hander who has been named to Major League Baseball's All-Star team three times, is on the 60-day disabled list recovering from back and shoulder issues.
During his first rehab assignment, Carpenter threw 54 pitches (38 strikes) for Double-A Springfield on Monday. He allowed three runs on six hits in 2 innings against the Arkansas Travelers, but he opened with a scoreless inning that included two strikeouts.
Carpenter is 144-94 with a 3.76 ERA in 15 seasons. He will start against Oklahoma City right-hander Asher Wojciechowski (5-4, 2.95).
The Redbirds' scheduled Thursday game against Oklahoma City was postponed because of rain. Memphis will play a pair of seven-inning games against the RedHawks on Friday, starting at 5:05 p.m.
Wednesday night in the Triple-A All-Star Game at Reno, Nev., the Redbirds' Brock Peterson singled and drove in one run while teammate Michael Wacha pitched 1 perfect innings as the Pacific Coast League lost 4-3 to the International League.
Wacha retired all five batters he faced in the seventh and eighth, on four groundouts and a fly out with 22 pitches (13 for strikes). He was chosen the Top Star of the PCL.
Peterson, who started at first base, went 1-for-2 with a single and an RBI.
MUS alum tied for 5th at Southern Amateur
Memphis University School graduate Zach Olsen is at 7-under-par 137 after the second round of the 107th Southern Amateur on Thursday in Houston. Olsen, now a freshman at Oklahoma State, followed his opening-round 64 with a 73 on Thursday and trails leader Kevin Marsh by four strokes. Marsh shot 68 for a 133 total. Olsen is tied with four others.
Summerhays shoots 63 for Mississippi lead
Daniel Summerhays rebounded from a disappointing finish last week in Iowa to take the lead Thursday in the rain-delayed first round of the Sanderson Farms Championship at Madison, Miss.
Four days after squandering the final-round lead in the John Deere Classic, Summerhays shot a 9-under 63 to open a three-stroke lead. He had an eagle and seven birdies in a bogey-free round at Annandale Golf Club.

The Music City Bowl in Nashville and the Gator Bowl in Jacksonville, Fla., have agreed to pick a school from the Big Ten Conference or Atlantic Coast Conference as one team in their games in a six-year deal starting in 2014.
The deal calls for the ACC to send a team to each site three times during this deal running through 2019.
Both bowls still must complete agreements to provide an opponent. Music City, which began in 1998, has a deal with the Southeastern Conference that goes through this year.

IFA 2006: Sharp looks to the future with Internet enabled TV
Sharp has announced that it is developing an internet-enabled television at IFA 2006 in Berlin, Germany.
The television will come with a web button on the remote control that allows users to switch the screen to internet mode. Coming complete with keyboard Sharp say the AQUOS screen can be users like "every normal computer".
The monitor will also feature either a 500GB or 200GB hard drive, and the ability to record programmes directly to the drive for playback at a later date.
The company hopes that the television will appeal to consumers when internet download sites are more prevalent.
The company however isn't sure as yet when and if the model will make it to the market.

Columbus, OH – Port Columbus yesterday welcomed a new airline that offers non-stop flights to three cities. It's the 11th airline serving Columbus and a boost to an airport stung by the departure of two carreirs and significant cuts from others. But as Mike Foley reports, officials remain confident this latest airline won't suffer the same fate.

30 year old woman | Phoenix, MD, USA | Seeking men 27-35 within 50 miles
Photographer seeking knight in scuffed armour: you've been through the battle and now you know who you are and what you want.
I'm an artistic girl who enjoys museums and culture in my life, but I also go to every Ravens game. I like to play AT the game of golf, but if you get to know me, I don't really fit into the country club mold. I'm sarcastic to a point which some strangers would find mean. I can dish it out, therefore I need someone in my life who can put me right back in my place. I'm the first to laugh at myself as well as others. If someone falls, although I'll make sure they're alright, I'll laugh. I figure that if I fall, I hope that someone sees it so that they too can get a chuckle at my expense. I can't spell to save my soul although I do consider myself to be educated. I'll take a good book over terrible reality TV any day. I'm good with power tools AND a paint brush. I hate coffee but love hot tea. As for my "perfect match," here's my ever changing list: someone who has a sense of humor (and understands mine), spontaneous, confident but not cocky, a strong sense of family, romantic and perhaps even a little cheesy at times, and feels as comfortable in a tux as he does in his sweats. I need someone who will challenge me to grow as an individual and as part of a relationship. I want it all, and darn it, I DESERVE IT!!!
Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Nightclubs/Dancing , Performing arts , Playing sports , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering , Watching sports , Wine tasting
Billiards / Pool, Bowling, Dancing, Football, Golf, Running, Walking / Hiking, Yoga
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I like Dogs
Middle of the Road
I'll go anywhere and eat just about anything. I like the dive bars as much as the 5 star restaurants. And I love to travel. Be it to OC or Sevilla, I want to see it all. And I will...
The Sudoku in the morning paper. A computer that works. A long run on a Sunday. Having people in my life who are drama free. Thunderstorms. Cameras. Family & friends. "These are a few..."
Apparently, I like to peruse the net for potential dates. Besides that, long walks on the beach & candle lit dinners. And once all the cliches are finished, I like a good sporting event, art museum & anything allowing me to be outside w/ friends.
"Blink" - Malcolm Gladwell, "The Death Artist" - Dennis Etchinson, "Savannah Blues" - Mary Kay Andrews. I like making my brain work with educational literature or mysteries. But I'm also a girl who's a sucker for girlie, brain candy romance novels.

Political Cartoons
This political cartoon features a rappin' Dubya as he assures us that terrorists just don't have a chance!
If women were in charge of the country, our problems would all end! Animated political figures Bill and Hillary Clinton, and celebrities like Oprah, Paris Hilton, Dolly Parton, and Angelina Jolie, join together in this parody to show that if women ran the country, the only problem would be men.

Enjoy these classic George Bush-isms; a collection of some of the President's biggest blunders.
A silly video of a woman demonstrating Hillary Clinton's various hand gestures while doing a speech.
A funny election video parody featuring kids that want the truth to be told about Barack Obama.
Ask Americans what they know about America and they'll give you all the facts. As long as it's all trivial, because otherwise -- we don't know jack!
It's a political ho-down with George W, Obama, Bill, Hillary, Edwards, McCain, Al, and all your other favorite potential presidents!

"Social Security: The Musical" throws just about every pop culture reference into this clip about the impending doom of the Social Security deficit. They want to privatize the social security pot and that means old people like Groovin' Granny will have to work until they die. Celebs like Jay Leno, the American Idol judges, Snoop Dogg, Donald Trump, the Clintons, and the 2008 presidential hopefuls weigh in on the problem.
In these uncertain times, one kind of man stands above the rest -- FatMan!!

First Lady Laura bush takes to the stage to do some stand-up comedy. The brunt of her political jokes? George "Dubya" Bush, of course!
President George W. Bush needs money bad to pay for the war in Iraq, so former president Bill Clinton has an idea - they should make a "Sex tape, baby!" just like Pamela Anderson and Paris Hilton! Sung to Kid Rock's "Cowboy," George and Bill just need a hi-8 and some drunk interns for their presidential sex tape, then the girls can come "and take a ride on Air Force One." Now if they can just keep Hillary away.....
Georgie Bush's favorite place to be! A parody of the theme song to "Green Acres".

Myq Kaplan Performs This Weekend at Comedy Works Landmark Village
Myq Kaplan is a comedian named Myq Kaplan (pronounced "Mike"). Myq made his network television debut on The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien and has since gone on to appear on The Late Show with David Letterman, The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson and in his own half-hour Comedy Central Presents: Myq Kaplan special. He was also a Top 5 finalist on the previous season of Last Comic Standing.
You can listen to Myq's podcast, Hang Out With Me, on the Keith and The Girl network. His debut CD, Vegan Mind Meld, was one of iTunes' top ten best-selling comedy albums in 2010, followed by Meat Robot in 2013 and the upcoming Small Dork and Handsome in 2014.

NORTHRIDGE, Calif — Cal State Northridge entered the week with the nation's best fielding percentage, fielding at a .987 clip, but that might not be the case when next week's rankings are released. The Matadors (7-11) committed three errors Tuesday afternoon at Matador Field, including a pair by third baseman Nicolas Osuna in the first inning that helped San Diego State baseball rush out to an early lead that would never be tested.
The Aztecs (12-4) handily won 12-0, jumping out to a 4-0 lead before Northridge ever got an opportunity to swing the sticks in the first inning. Tim Zier knocked a two-run homer over the left field wall after Greg Allen walked to lead off the game. A pair of singles and a pair of Osuna errors assisted San Diego State with another pair of runs.


text: Abandoned by the world and left to fend for himself as the Nazis continue their march across Europe, one-time bohemian turned Catholic convert Max Jacob finds help coming from the most unlikely of places as he awaits the train that will take him to a Concentration camp. The year is 1944, and as the Gestapo storm the abbey of Saint-Benoit-sur-Loire to arrest the Max Jacob (Jean-Claude Brialy), it appears as if the homosexual Jew who had previously rubbed elbows with Pablo Picasso and Jean Cocteau during the Bateau-Lavoir years will now become just another victim of Hitler's murderous regime. Later, as Jacob sits in Drancy awaiting deportation, a young orphan whom he had once saved from the streets sets out to return the favor by any means necessary. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

The Sirius Cove is a very much hidden but very beautiful and rather untouched place.
Very popular with dog owners, so I rather recommend the place for people who love dogs.
3 Days in Sydney
Museum Guide for Sydney
Best & Worst of Sydney
I love this place. We can let the dog off the lead the water is clean and the park area is beautiful and fairly large. There are some picnic benches if you want to bring food, free parking and toilets. With dog friendly beach being rare especially in mosman this one is lovely and we often spend Sunday afternoons watching...
Brilliant. Its a hidden treasure. Great for well controlled dogs, children and picnics....but leave areas like this for dog owners.
One of the attractions of the harbour on the north shore are the parks, reserves and coves that allow you to escape the normal hustle and bustle of a busy noisy city.
Sirius Cove is one of those parks that allows you to escape with some peace and as others have commented, it is a dog friendly park.
Only go here if you have dogs as it gets a bit smelly!
Yes I go there as I have a relative that lives overlooking this Cove. Great for children.

Conservative News Update:
Steve Cooper
The Conservative Monster.com
The timing of the Kremlin changing Ria Novosti's name is very interesting and the media isn't even reporting it…as usual. Ria Novosti has been around since 1941. Why the sudden change? The site is more modern looking… sort of like Russia Today.
Notice, the Soviets didn't change the name after the 'alleged' collapse of Communism, but now they want to change it after 73 years?
Be careful of the link; Russian software can be hazardous to your computer.

Denim for Vacations
For those of you that doubt your denim for vacation outfits, I'm here to change your mind. Yes denim can be a little heavier weight and better for those cooler months, but the light and airy denim pieces, such as Chambray, are perfect for your Summer fun. They're light and breathable and will work with any other piece in your wardrobe.
Denim Outfits For Summer Parties
Denim is easy; it goes with anything and can be dressed up or down pretty much taking you from day to night or from party to party. Sometimes the "dressing it up" part can be difficult because it isn't always just slapping on a pair of heels. Here are three ways to dress up your denim for those fun Summer parties.
Jean Shorts to Buy Now
Shorts are pretty crucial for the Summertime and you can't just have any ol' pair. Just like jeans, they should fit you properly and be of great quality. With so many different styles on trend, you can play with different pairs, making your summer a fun and fashionable one. Here are my top picks for shorts you should buy right now!
90's Inspired Denim
90's trends have been popping up here and there for years, but they've really made their presence known the past couple of years. I love watching trends come back around because they're always done with a little modern flare from the present time period and I'm loving the way everyone's wearing their 90's gear now. Here are my 3 favorite trends that came back this year.
