Good news, aspiring professional League of Legends players. No, Pizza Hut isn't having a 5 for 6 deal. Rather, Riot Games has partnered with Coke Zero (gross) for a new challenger series, "that will run in tandem with the League Championship Series (LCS) when it resumes for the 2014 season in North America and Europe."
Its goal is to give a dramatic underdog side story to the LCS, zeroing in on aspiring pros vying for a spot in the big leagues.
Amateur players aspiring to go pro will now compete in weekly matchups broadcasted live on lolesports.com to fans around the globe. Running in parallel with the LCS season, the challenger series pits top-ranked teams from the Ranked 5s Challenger Tier against one another. At the conclusion of the series, the highest placed teams will join us live to play in a championship tournament for a shot at the LCS.
This could be your big break to cement your legend. You could be somebody.
The South Park Minecraft focused episode aired last night, and as it turns out it wasn't just about Minecraft! In fact, it was more about murder porn. Oh, and how sh*tty cable companies are.
Funny enough, I stopped watching the episode after five minutes thinking I wasn't watching the Minecraft episode. That's not the case though, and,well, it's about as demented as you'd expect. It's South Park, after all.
Watch the full episode online over at South Park Studios.
Nintendo is bringing MonoGame Framework to the Wii U, Siliconera reports. The open source implementation of Microsoft's XNA 4 Framework's main goal is to increase the efficiency of multiplatform development by allowing for simple re-using of code.
MonoGame Framework has been used in the development of Bastion, Fez, and Skulls of the Shogun. A bunch of lovely games. MonoGame already supports iOS, Android, Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, Windows Phone 8, PlayStation Mobile and Ouya. Hopefully this is just another step in easing development burdens, which means more games for all.
