In first-person shooters, the only one who loves snipers is the person playing the sniper. Everyone else in the game will despise them, for their ability to instantly kill a foe from long distances. This anger has spread to Hanzo from Overwatch , who has inspired a hatedom that far outstrips the love that the players who main him feel. There is no denying that Hanzo is a difficult character to master and can be unfairly powerful in the hands of the right player. Is that really enough of a reason to hate a character? Because he rewards skill and dedication? It seems so, as we will see many times over on this l
"This quarter we again over-performed our plan, delivering record third-quarter revenues of $1.57 billion, up almost 60% and earnings per share of $0.49, more than doubling year-over-year on a non-GAAP basis (as redefine
Before purchasing any of the many titles launching in November, my goal is to complete both Batman: Arkham Asylum and Arkham City . I was able to narrow down my list of November releases to two titles: Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception and Assassin's Creed: Revelations . I'm interested in a bunch of other titles in November including Need for Speed The Run and Metal Gear Solid HD collection , however I had to put these on the back burner due to time and money constraints. Narrowing my list down to two titles wasn't easy and as the month progresses I'm not sure how long I can hold out – Modern Warfare 3 is looking too good to pass
Gaming funds have dropped for me, but that's actually not a bad thing as I'll be able to clean up some of my backlog. Being the Naughty Dog fanboy I am, I plan to pick up Uncharted 3 . I'll also be grabbing Modern Warfare 3 and The King of Fighters XIII . In terms of my backlog, I picked up the PC version of Brink a while back so I'll be giving that a spin. I also plan to finish Brothers In Arms: Hell's Highway and Kirby's Return To Dreamland in the next couple of days, but I'm also going to spend the month trying to clean up all of the trophies in Section 8: Prejudice - only 8 more until my platinum! Oh, and maybe my friend will finally pick up Ratchet and Clank All 4 One so I can start playing i
Hattori Hanzō was the son of a minor samurai, who earned a fierce reputation in battle. He rose in rank and led hundreds of soldiers into battle. Hanzō was responsible for saving the life of Tokugawa Ieyasu, who would go on to become the Shogun of Japan. Ieyasu is considered to be one of the major historical figures who managed to unite Japan's separate warring states into a single country. Hanzō worked closely with Ieyasu and had a huge part in helping to establish his administrat
In "Dragons", Hanzo is seen visiting a shrine, where he lights incense as part of his annual prayer for his brother. The shrine holds a sword with a light blue hilt, which also has a chunk missing out of the blade. Was this the weapon that Hanzo used to try and kill his brot
Blizzard Entertainment released patch notes and information on a new update that is now available in the game's Public Test Region on PC. Specifically, the new update addresses some balance changes with certain Heroes, such as Roadhog's hook being a bit more balanced, while Ana, D.Va, and Sombra also have some changes in p
Since there are just so many games coming out this month, I think I am going to have to not only invent a time machine and keep traveling back to play them, but I'll also have to forgo sleep, eating, and writing for Game Rant. Just kidding, I really like sleep and eating. My Games: Uncharted 3, Modern Warfare 3, Battlefield 3, Skyrim, LEGO Harry Potter Years 5-7, Assassin's Creed Revelations, Saints Row: The Third, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, Lord of the Rings: War in the North, and Halo Anniversa

The term "Hanzo Main" has become something of an insult online. While it is certainly a refreshing change of pace from the usual racist/sexist/homophobic insults that are usually thrown about online, it is still an odd thing to be used as a derogatory term. Is someone's choice of video game character truly an insult? If the Internet was as prevalent in the '90s as it is today, would we be angrily calling people "E. Honda main" or "Mr. Mime main" in online c
