Sunday! Here we are on yet another Sunday answering more and more of your questions. It really has become to me something of a tradition one I hope to keep up with for quite some time. So without getting super sappy or anything like that let us get on with the questions.

Have you had a chance to play the prologue missions for Legacy of the Void, and are they worth getting?

If you are getting the game you will get a chance to play them regardless. The questions comes down if you want to play them right now. All 3 missions were very good not realty that challenging, but I wasn't expecting them to be. They are story driven with everyone's favourite protross Zeratul. Only draw back for me now is that I want to know more of the story which is the most frustrating part to me. So if you are like me in that regard I would suggest waiting as long as you can as to not have to wait even longer to play the rest of the game.

Is every game now made with a sequel in mind?

I don't think every game is made that way. I feel like there always seems to be room for series to expand. Companies want their games to be a sucess and maybe just maybe if the fans enjoyed it enough there could be a sequel. I think most start up games now though may take The Last of Us as an example. Could there be a second game? Yes, of course, there could be but there doesn't have to. The ending fits and you can go on from their. Even using Naughty Dog as a prime example every Uncharted game thus far could have been the end, but they kept making them because of the love of the characters and the amount of fun you get out of the game.

Are we ever going to see another Soul Calibur?

Well I hope so.

There  you have it questions for the week. Well at least the ones I chose to put on here. As always thanks to everyone who sent something in as it could not be possible to do this without all of your contributions. Now you can sit back and enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Well here we are the Sunday after Valentines. Hope everyone enjoyed it no matter if you choose to celebrate or keep away from the commercialization. Regardless if you are in recovery from fun or anger it is Sunday and it is time to get to the questions.

So I recently saw an article on the forums about how Broxigar really isn't that great of a warrior in terms of Lore, and would "struggle" against some of the others throughout Warcrafts history. Any thoughts?

Well as you probably know I am a pro Brox guy. Now yes I understand that he wielded an axe enchanted by a demigod. It was made to light, but as hard as diamond. So yes it was probably the axe which was the reason it did damage to Sargeras. Now with that in mind let's not forget what happened before that moment. He killed enough demons to be standing on a mountain of corpses and was still fighting them. Yes he created a MOUNTAIN of corpses. Magic axe or not you have to know how to use something. Not to mention Sargeras upon seeing the carnage he had caused remarked about his skills and that is when Broxigar swung and damaged the fallen titan. Every "best warrior ever" talk in Warcraft's history always needs to include talk of Brox.

Should there be Hero bans in Heroes of the Storm?

I know people are trying to make Heroes as close to the other MOBAs they have played. Now do I think bans are a good idea? Truthfully not really. The reasons they exists is because it means Heroes are just better for the group then anyone else. If this is the case it means the game isn't balanced correctly. Sure some groups will do better against others, but making it so certain Heroes are not available doesn't promote the community to change their approach to the game. It just avoids situations which the team doesn't want to deal with. I think allowing the community to come up with solutions to confront combos is really what competitive gaming is all about.

What game do you think needs a sequel?

Well we have a list for Wednesday now don't we?

There they are the question choices for the week. Hope you all enjoyed it, and enjoy the rest of your weekend!
