New thing I did – A Podcast
So. Guess what I did this weekend? I created a podcast!! I decided that I have a face fit for radio… Or Podcasting… Anyway, spent the weekend working on this – hoping that I’ve worked the kinks out and it’ll be much...
iPhone Revitalizes the Side Scroller
With a crazy amount of Apps available through the App Store (something like 27,000 – and the majority of those are supposed to be games), the iPhone is quickly becoming a viable game platform. The old school gamer in me is relishing the...
The Queue
I love Blizzard, I really do. I think they do so much to keep their user base entertained, engaged and coming back for more. The one area where I feel they fail utterly is: population control. Let’s paint the picture for you: you’ve...
Weekend Stuff
So, I spent a good chunk of my weekend playing World of Warcraft – something that hasn’t happened in a really, really long time. I have to admit, the new Death Knight class is mostly responsible – well, that and the fact that I...
Wrath of the Lich King: Death Knights
I have been playing Wrath for a couple days now, and I have to admit – Blizzard has done some pretty nifty things. Some examples come from the Death Knight starting area and quests. The Eye. The Eye quest lets you take a giant floating...
Wrath of the Lich King
So – I got and installed The Wrath of the Lich King. I must say, so far, it’s pretty freaking cool. Meet Kurmudgeon: Kurmudgeon is a level 55 Death Knight (they start at level 55). His story is a simple one in that he doesn’t...
Warcraft
Well, to quote Michael Corleone: Just when I thought I was out… they pull me back in. My trip to Blizzcon rekindled my interest in the World of Warcraft, among other games. I’ve been doing a good job of balancing my time playing...
Warcraft: Four years later
Wow. Or, WoW. Four years of World of Warcraft. I can’t believe it’s been four years. With Blizzcon approaching, I’ve been thinking back on how Warcraft has impacted my life. At best I can be considered a casual player...
Blizzcon
So. One week til Blizzcon. I’m starting to get excited! Believe it or not, for me, it’s more about getting away and seeing friends than it is about going to a video gaming convention. WoW has made me a lot of good friends and...
Spore!
Well – I caved. I bought Spore today. I’m installing it even as I type. Should be pretty interesting. All the hype aside, if it delivers on half of what’s been promised, it will be an amazing little...
Talking Murloc Plushie
If you like the World of Warcraft, you probably hate Murlocs. I mean, they gang up on you, they run away when you’re trying to kill one and come back with a couple more in tow. All of em say something like...
Blizzcon 2008 Announced
Blizzard Entertainment has announced the next installment of their BlizzCon gaming convention. It’ll be in Anaheim again, at the convention center there on October 10th and 11th 2008. I am seriously considering going this time around. ...
