My ASHE guide in League of Legends

“Before further reading, I want to emphasize on this article that this is not the best guide of Ashe in the League of Legends. There are many good guide that can be found on their forums. This is more about a story of my experience that I can share with. If you had any opinion about this article, that would be welcome.”


ASHE, THE FROST ARCHER
One of the perennial favorites of summoners in the League of Legends is the Freljordian beauty known as Ashe. She is a direct descendant of Avarosa - one of three legendary sisters who each claimed dominion over the scattered tribes dwelling in the icy tundra of northern Valoran. Ashe mirrors her ancestor's unparalleled mastery of the bow, earning her the title of ''the Frost Archer'' the way Avarosa did during her era.

Ashe is a literal Princess amongst her people, though she prefers to be addressed by outsiders as her tribal title rather than any form of royal moniker. There are those in Freljord, however, that would prefer to address Ashe as the ''late'' Frost Archer; the other two tribes that are descendants from the Three Sisters are historically sworn enemies of Ashe and her people. Having survived more than one assassination attempt in her life, Ashe is always aware of her surroundings regardless of where she is.

There will be more iPhone games which look like Infinity Blade

Infinity Blade currently is the best seller on the iPhone, this game really damn good at visual. And starting this Thursday, anyone will be able to make this kind of game in the iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad using the same technology as Infinity Blade does.

The iOS Version of Unreal Development Kit, reported by Wall Street Journal, will be free to download this thursday. The engine is made by Epic Games, and they made a variation program made for PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 engine to this Apple platform.

This is no surprise, really. This is how Epic works. The company is at least as much a graphics technology maker as it is a game development powerhouse. Epic creates graphics engines and licenses them to other companies which can then build their games using Epic's tools. Traditionally we've seen Epic get the most of their engines for their own games. In fact, Epic's games have been showpieces for Unreal tech. Gears of War and Gears of War 2 each showed off iterations of Unreal Engine 3. Infinity Blade shows off the power of Epic's tech on iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch devices.

Those who want to make games using this technology will be able to get it for free but have to pay for US$99 licensing fee and 25% royalties after the first $5000 in sales. The most formidable rival to this iPhone graphics engine is the one powering Rage HD. That game was crafted by a team lead by id Software's Doom co-creator John Carmack. But Carmack already inform that his parent company, Zenimax, is not interested in licensing the technology to outsiders.

The most important thing is, starting from Infinity Blade there will be other game that graphic quality is not far from those game. I think its a good start for Apple product.

Cataclysm sold more than 3,3 million in 24h

Just come in: Cataclysm, the latest World of Warcraft's expansion, has hit a new milestone for Blizzard. It reported that this expansion has been sold more than 3.3 million copies worldwide on its first 24 hours of release. Those making Cataclysm is the fastest-selling PC game of all time.

Before this, the milestone has been hold by its second expansion, Wrath of the Lich King, which sold more than 2.8 million copies in 24 hours, set in November 2008.

"We had to bring Azeroth to the brink of destruction in Cataclysm, but the result was our best expansion yet," said Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment. "We want to thank all of our new, existing, and returning players throughout the world for their incredible enthusiasm and support, and we look forward to hearing what they think about all the new content."

After Cataclysm released, the total subscriber of World of Warcraft had grown to more than 12 million players globally. Blizzard claims that more than 15,000 players attended on the official launch events and 10,000 stores globally are selling the Cataclysm. I would say that the Blizzard has much more money on their account to get new expansion...
