I have 4 keys to give away for the HoN beta (DoTA's retail remake) so the first 4 people to reply with their email address will get a key
 
I already received an invite (from my brother) though I never played DotA (and I suck at this game) I still thoroughly enjoy it.

I am going to buy it when it goes global
 
I think im going to wait for League of Legends. I will try both though, since Leage is free.
 
woah theres a dota retail?! :O
edit: I'll stick with dota. D:

Aright... So I got it. I played it. I'm not sure I like it. Yeah it's kinda fun. But honestly they have so many cheesy sound effects and goofy stuff going on that it really ruins the atmosphere of the game. I really think they could have used some non-cheesy sound fx and had a solid game that felt really cool. The gameplay is kinda fun, its DOTA remade, the abilities are unique, albeit, completely unbalanced. I just had a match where this stupid little faerie thing just kept healing her entire team constantly and none of them died the entire game. Pretty lame. I used Glacius, who was utterly useless. His freeze effects really didn't do anything. They would only freeze people for less than 2 seconds max. Most of the time they instantly wore off.

I'll be playing more to learn more about it, but I don't see this becoming the hit they hope for it to be without some serious re-touching and updating.
 
So I've played more of this. And I don't think I'll waste any more time with it. The game is just bad. I'm sorry, but the majority of people that I get stuck with are just not fun to play with, take it way too seriously, and honestly, the game has no skill factor. Its just do one thing to win, or you lose. I fail to see the point in that. It comes down to who has the better character lineup and who uses their powers at the right time (which are really difficult to cast well due to bad latency throughout the games. I really just don't think the game was well thought out. They tried to copy an already existing game, and did it poorly in my opinion. I'm sure some of you will enjoy this game, but as far as the game being well made... well don't try to say it is. Not to mention the community that I have experienced thus far is well, just depressing. I have never seen so many people playing a game that makes them clearly unhappy, and constantly complaining, yet not stopping to play the game. Its not even hard, just boring, and linear.
