Back in October 2012, Riot Games happily announced that they had 12 million players signing on to play League of Legends each day . That's not registered users in total - that's actual player activity on a daily basis. Impressive? Now they have 27 million players playing daily, more than double that 2012 number. No wonder the game dominates the livestream charts of Twitc

One of the surprise hits of E3 2013 and a game we quickly fell in love with was Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare . Think Dungeon Defenders but with far improved and polished graphics thanks to it being built on the Frostbite 3 game engine.

I tried out several Champions through multiple rounds. My first go-around involved Lux, specifically the Lady of Luminosity version. This passive ability allows you to draw a card after playing a spell that costs five or more, which can ramp you up in the mid-game significantly, provided that you've set yourself up for success at that po

After an ethereal teaser last month, the new trailer provides a brief introduction to this plot, but is more about the general style, showing the creativity of former SNL director Dave McCary and drawing attention to its great revi
