Riot Games has said League of Legends Dominion will be launching very soon, and the developer has posted some information pertaining to the new mode on the game’s official website. It looks as though LoL players can look forward to new craft items from the shop, the ability to participate in shorter matches, items and weapons specific to Dominion, new summoner spells, and a new map which takes place on the Crystal Scar, which contains intersecting paths and control points. There’s no exact date set just yet, but it sounds like it’s not too far off. Hit up the links for more information. Thanks, GamesRadar.

In a League of Legends post-mortem presentation at GDC today, Riot Games senior producer Steve Snow said the developer insisted staff play the game every day, rather than take new features or bug fixes to beta.

We had to post this. Gamespot’s had a go with LOL, the recently announced Agetec DS party game. To summarise, some people get together and draw stuff. LOL.

Its blank-slate nature makes it one of the more minimalist games you’re likely to find on the DS, rivaling the simplicity of Pictochat–or even just a blank sheet of paper. If you feel as though your imagination is up to the task, you can find LOL in stores next month at a retail price of $20.

Good luck with that.

It really is called LOL, as in lol. Apparently, Agetec’s DS game is “a unique, free-form gaming experience,” and “LOL’s motto says it best: ‘If the game is boring, then you are boring.’”

Right.

“We decided not to include a single-player mode in the game because that would defeat the purpose. This game was created to be a social game that allows you interact on and off Nintendo DS with your friends,” said producer Mark Johnson. “LOL concentrates on the comedic joy of using the imagination of everyone in the room.”

God knows if it’s coming out in Europe. You can read more about LOL here. Be sure to wear your corset before you hit the link.
