Reasons why its worth to be a PCgamer in 2011-AKA why you gonna lose your job/friends

I would say it could be described as the whole WoW experience (except pure RP or questing) on a server packed into 30-60 min matches. As DotA is really popular, the competiton is big. Hence the fuzz about it I guess :D.

If I interpreted you right as in "what is DotA?" =).

If you mean the whole Blizzard vs LoL vs Valve vs Ice Frog drama, I also don't know what is going on ^^.

I don't have a very good insight in the DotA community these days, but I just looked for something on youtube for some describing video and found this www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYXXrwQ7h7w
no idea if the commentaries are good at all or whatever, but it should clear up a bit =).
HON is essentially DotA btw. It is like comparing RO and DH.

congrats, you've finally turned a new leaf
I'm quite impressed at your buy list, b/c as an elitist I actually agree with it for the most part

Looks pretty good to me. Not amazing but looks like a perfect sit around with your buddies and do ridiculous **** kind of game. It's refreshing to see a shooter not take itself so seriously and go Duke Nukem style.
Well maybe it was just the retarded bulletpoints videos that gave me that impression.

@illinifan
I got Black Ops because I skipped MW2 and felt like playing some CoD again, but I got tired of it after 10h in MP and well afterall it is pretty much the same as the games before, so unless the next CoD has some huge improvements and an interesting setting(like WW1, yeah very likely >.>), both things that are very unlikely, I won't buy another one

Oh also I forgot to add Homefront to the "no way in hell" list. Plus Skyrim looks pretty neat but I'll wait for some proper footage.
