Nintendo Direct – Six E3 Must-Haves

After some troubling Wii U news over the week, Nintendo’s still going strong with their Nintendo Direct streaming events. With a pre-E3 Nintendo Direct already being planned, expectations for this installment aren’t exactly sky high. Even with those expectations, it wasn’t a heavy-hitter this time around. E3 is only a few short weeks away, …

ELO Hell: League of Legends: This Week in ELO Hell (Week 5: May 9th-16th)

Five weeks of this “ELO Hell” League of Legends nonsense and sixty Bronze ranked matches later, I’m running into as many jackasses as I’ve had good solid matches.  When the jackass isn’t on my side, the other team is howling about reporting someone on their team…but of course, more likely …

ELO Hell: League of Legends: This Week in ELO Hell (Week 4: May 2nd-8th)

Another week, another week of banging my head against the keyboard in solo queue ranked matches in League of Legends.  ELO Hell week four continues, but with a winning streak, taking me out of Bronze 5 and 50+ points into Bronze 4 tier.  Well, don’t take my word for it, let’s go to the …

ELO Hell: League of Legends: This Week in ELO Hell (Week 3: April 24-May 1st)

A dramatic turn of events in this week’s “This Week in ELO Hell“!  The start of Week 3 sees our intrepid hero dropped from Bronze 3 to Bronze 4, but things don’t get much better, going on a multi-game losing streak…until the Freljord event begins, and Shanghai Six is able to turn …

League of Legends: This Week in ELO Hell (Week 1: April 8-15)

I like to think of myself as a decent gamer.  I regularly do expert level walkthroughs of games set to the hardest difficulty available, such as Silent Assassin playthroughs of Hitman Absolution or Ghost playthroughs of Dishonored. I also like to think of myself as at LEAST an average League of Legends player. …

D&D and Neverwinter Invite-Only Party: PAX East 2013

The floor show is not the only place that PAX East action takes place. Some of the best places to meet people, play games and socialize are the parties that take place after the Expo Hall closes. Some are large loud affairs akin to the raves or clubs, while others – which I prefer …

PlayStation All-Stars DLC is Missing the Point

Screen Shot 2013-02-27 at 4.11.18 AM

It’s no secret that a few of us here at Front Towards Gamer are big fans of PlayStation All-Stars: Battle Royale. The mash-up fighter featuring (some of) Sony’s best and brightest dropped with a niche fanfare, but wasn’t a bad game in any right. Sony Sana Monica definitely knows what they’re doing when it comes to post-release …
