I never should have opened this god damned game. Seriously. So, I decide to buy a horse. Because I’m tired of running everywhere. And walking. Because, you know, I’m carrying 4 times the limit on what I can actually carry. Which...
A long time ago, I bought Skyrim. That wasn’t the mistake. Probably. I bought Skyrim when it first came out. I did not open it. Until Friday night. That was (probably) the mistake. At the time I bought Skyrim, there were a lot of things going on...
With a very few exceptions, I am not a fan of ‘racing’ games. Especially racing games that try to be as realistic as possible, give you control over every aspect of your car, and pay for upgrades for the smallest thing all the way up...
So, for my birthday last week, I went ahead and bought Batman: Arkham City. Having loved the original game, Batman: Arkham Asylum, I figured it would be a no brainer that I would love the sequel – and for the most part that’s been...
I remember when Star Trek: Enterprise was cancelled – in fact, I blogged about it on the old site which no longer exists or else I’d give you a link. Forgive me, I’m trying to remember the particulars here – a rather...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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 game.
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...
