World of Warplanes: P-80A Shooting Star 6 Kills 3610 Base XP

Here is the P-80A Shooting Star, the special premium tier 8 American fighter. It’s a solid money maker if you can get it through the special Christmas mission for 2016. I highly recommend it! It shoots very accurate because of the gun placement in the nose.

Khan’s Corner: First Impressions of Dominion

What is Dominion?

For those that played WoW (and don’t pretend you didn’t) it is basically Arathi Basin with minion waves and a fog of war in the center of the map. There are five points in the map and you must claim them, defend them, and reclaim them in order to secure the fought over resources for your team as you slowly dwindle away the enemy team’s nexus HP bar. Sounds pretty wizard doesn’t it? Well it is! It is pretty damn wizard.

League of Legends: The Unsung Hero of the Online Competitive Gaming Scene

First and foremost, LoL is free to play. That’s right, you can go download and play it for free right now. Not only is it free to play, you can earn all the champions and runes for free over time. So unlike other free to play games, you can actually enjoy all aspects of the game (from a competitive standpoint) without being tricked into spending money. However, if you like the game, you probably will shell out some cash so that you can grab a champion pack or some skins to make your champions look more mighty or goofy. Skins only change the aesthetics of your current champion so they are by no means required.
