Necromancer has a strange history throughoutDiablo 4so far. In beta, they were very strong and had incredibly overpowered minions. But a nerf right before the release of the game saw them get heavily nerfed, and their minions were made almost useless. Finally, with Season 2, Necromancers have been brought back in line with the other classes. Minions are strong again, adding more build diversity as well. If you take a look at ourClass Tier List, you will see that Necromancer is our absolute best class for leveling....

Some discerning (or paranoid) fans are guessing thatE.X. Troopersis actually the reanimated corpse ofMega Man Legends 3....

Promises more for ’15 In a change of pace, a rather candid letter was posted on the EA Sports website (that’s a thing) from Executive Producer Sean O’ Brien — tasked with handling the upcomingNBA Live 15. The letter opens up with explaining that the teamfell short withNBA Live 14, most notably in terms of depth and polish, and the lacking visuals. O’Brien explains that they’ve rectified this by tightening the gameplay, and since they’ve scanned in “the majority of the league’s” heads, the visuals will look more realistic....

It’s about time Echo Arenahad a free weekend for Oculus Rift owners recently, and I was eager to jump in and see what it was all about. They made a point to mention how big this was going to be at this year’s E3, even going so far as to promote an eSport tournament for it in the future. I can’t so much comment on whether or not this will thrive as a spectator sport, but holy crap did I enjoy playing it myself....

Developer calls the mobile version a succeess Goat Simulator is now on Android and iOS in addition to the PC, and according to Coffee Stain Studios, it’s selling well — very well in fact. So far they’ve reported over 100,000 sales over both platforms, which they consider to be over expectations.

The focus for now is to concentrate on mobile version bugs for a few weeks, then more updates will be provided on future content....
