1 MILLION dollar prize for DotA 2 tournament at Gamescom [url=http://www.dota2.com]www.dota2.com[/url] Oh my god. I'm starting to get really excited about this. Looks like Valve is serious about DotA 2 being a competitive game. For those who don't know, DotA is a hugely popular Warcraft 3 mod. MOBA games like LoL and HoN are spinoffs of it. But seriously though, $1 million dollar prize on a game that's not out yet? Crazy. I can't wait though. It just sucks that there are no NA teams. If this is serious, DotA 2 is going to take over as the top competitive MOBA, HoN is going to die and LoL is just going to be a casual free to play version with no competitive scene.

People on bikes went past my house Oh. My. God. I don't know what it was for, but like 200 nude cyclists just went past my house. I shall be scarred for life. All I did was walk to the window when I heard cheering...

Prize for Facebook Likes? So if you're on maple right now, you should see that nexon put a new announcement for the facebook thing, and apparently they're giving out 500k mystery boxes. Hopefully it's not something stupid or something to do with chance.
Orange Box or BFBC2?( or other <$20 steam game) So I just found out that I still had $23 on my paypal account that I forgot about, and I've decided to get a game on steam. I've narrowed it down to The Orange Box or Battlefield: BC2. I'm not really sure which to get. I already have Portal from the free thing. I've played like half of the Half-Life 2 Campaign before and it was great but not "omg best game evar" great. So basil, which one should I get? (also suggest other games(has to be under $20))

Interesting Optical Illusions Post some that are cool. [url=http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/21/Spinning_Dancer.gif]Spinning Ballerina[/url] This one is just so weird. Sometimes it looks like its spinning one way then it just turns around.. [url=http://i.imgur.com/8JGqz.gif]same one but easier to see(just look at the one on the one on the left to make the middle one spin right, and the one on the right to make it spin left )[/url]

Being a Google Autocompleter Google is really going all out this april fool's day....

New game from the creator of QWOP, GIRP. The guy that made [url=http://www.foddy.net/Athletics.html]QWOP[/url], which a lot of people think is the hardest game ever, has created a new game, [url=http://www.foddy.net/GIRP.html]GIRP[/url] You have to click letters to climb up a cliff. It's a lot harder than it looks. I couldn't get past 10m... You hold shift/ctrl/left click to pull yourself up while you press the letters to reach for each handle.
New EVE trailer [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45mlVuLs_Nw]link[/url] I hope they actually come through with this and make it part FPS. I've never really played EVE except for the 10 day trial which was pretty fun, but this just looks awesome.
