This is great nice for the DBG genre!

I just feel this would be one heck of a DotA based game

VALVe’s probably going to make a Source version of DotA.

There is no hero named Scout, Noob!

Sounds like DOTA but it might just be a windmill.

I too bought into LoL and this makes me extremely excited!

A company that is capable of keeping its servers up is going to be a refreshing change of pace!

This actually makes me a little sad, because I bought into LoL (after no interest in DotA or Demigod) and now anything Valve produces is going to stomp LoL into the ground. At least I can take consolation from the fact that it’ll be developed in Valve Time.

I feel the same way but with Heroes of Newerth, another dota-clone that’s still in closed Beta. I’ve pre-purchased this title as well. :(

I hope if it’s like DotA, which it probably is, that it doesn’t have those stupid item recipes. =[
And upgrade tree would be much more intuitive and have more options.

This seems REALLY fricking cool to see where it leads.
The only thing i could imagine would happen was a individual very advanced dotagame with same awesome graphics. :)
Can’t wait too see.

I would definitely like to see where this partnership leads…

HoN began as a direct dota clone, and as they integrate new engine mechanics, new heros are added (Ports, Remixes, and entirely new alike). Most existing heros are either direct ports or remixes based on DotA heros. There are a few entirely unique ones, though.

Still, it’s in (mostly closed) beta, and under active development.

If you buy the Orange Box you get Portal free with the rest of the games. Actually, doesn’t the Orange Box cost about the same for 1 game?

Wow.

About the only thing I remotely agree on is that Portal and co are still priced very high so long after their release. But hey, if you think it’s expensive, don’t buy it. Looks like a million billion other people didn’t mind the price and enjoyed the game(s) immensely.

The rest is just insane.
