Sike!

But really, I have a comic.

Well, I had a good long healthy run. Two years… 2 long amazing years! No longer though.

As of this weekend, I re-activated my WoW account and began making a new character. (Trying to use the refer-a-friend program, buy my refereed friend and I haven’t been able to play at the same time!)

It’s only been a few days since Blizzcon announced the new Wizard class for Diablo 3, and since they made the announcement that apparently, the world seems to think someone came into the night, robbed your house, stole your baby, raped your family (yes, even the pets) and then said “Don’t worry, we never loved you.”

Well I don’t know exactly if they can or not, but I am going to see if I can’t bring this site back to life. Since few months, for some reason I’ve been over-whelmed with different games, not to mention those stupid real life issues, damn mid-terms. plus more video games.

Expect a good amount of reviews coming in, here are some of the games I’ve thrown down in.

As promised, yet a little late. Hopefully some of you can understand the dilemma I was abruptly forced under.

So… I might be dead to the world for the next few days.  However I shall do my best to keep my word of getting a review on Wipeout HD and/or Mega Man 9 tomorrow/today?

So it’s been near two weeks since a post (looks at the date again) Alright so it has been two weeks since the last post, and the poll hasn’t even been changed. Why some my ask, well for some reason or another, the other authors have ceased their posting.

As for I, I do my best not to regergitate information you can easily find on other websites. And with nothing major coming through my doors the last few weeks, I really haven’t had any material to cover.

With today/yesterday/apparently over a week ago for some guy in Canada. The Adventurer’s Vault was released, hopefully providing a nice supplement to the lack of magical items and various adventuring gear that 4th Edition so desperately needs.

This is the second video I’ve seen pop up from Daniel Floyd, which has now lead me to track down other videos he has done. Daniel tends to talk about video games, the industry in it’s current state, and ways to make it better… for the better? You know? This video mentions ways that learning is brought into video games, or could be used by more developers to help give something to the players.

So when you walk away from hours of murdering people virtually, you might also walk away with a bit of knowledge. Floyd makes some very good examples of way it could be done, and ways that I’m sure most of us have been affected by, and may not have even know.

Since Spore was released over the weekend, one can only imagine the number of creations that have come into existence. A quick summery of the game for those of you that have never even heard of the game (Which means you have never been a part of the internet and video games in your life).  You begin life as a small organism after a meteor crash lands on a planet. There you start your life growing and evolving to where you make it to the surface of the planet. Always growing, always evolving as you make your way into a tribal, civilization and the icing of the game, space exploration.

One of the bigger draws to the game is the fact that you can customize every aspect of your creature and civilization (Buildings, vehicles, and space shuttle) and give it your own color schemes.

Well it’s been a few days since the release of Fallen Star (The Latest Booster Pack for Warhawk) and I must say, there is a great reason it’s taken me a few days to write about it. The introduction of Jet-Packs is amazing feature for the game. One of the key reasons it has finally added a feature I personally felt the game was missing from the start. The ability to bail out of a flying Warhawk, whether you’re the pilot or a passenger.

The new map is also a welcomed site to sore eyes. Not nearly as large as Omega Dawn (Thank goodness) and no where near as bright as Broken Mirror. In the middle of the map, it appears that there is a giant space ship that has fell from the sky (Hence Fallen Star, eh.. eh?), which I can only assume is one of the ships that were meant to be in the single player campaign the game was originally going to have.

As of 12:53 am this morning, the newest Warhawk Patch, version 1.5 was released. (At least that was when I noticed it) So I just had to try it out, wanting to see what trophies could be acquired, what trophies I would start with. (Since they did announce some of the trophies would be acquired upon installing since some of them you wouldn’t be able to re-acquire)

As per the norm at GenCon, Magic the Gathering seemed to be the dominate card game, although not by much. It seems that they now have half of the tournament hall, while Upper Deck had the other half. It’s kind of a weird setup, because Wizard no longer runs the Magic event, instead a company called Past Time Games runs all the magic events at GenCon. Been that way for a few years now I’ve noticed.

Just a quick rant about an article I read. (After I was directed there by John)

Tis a sad day when all the beloved characters we have all known and love, shall just disappear into the evil world known as B.Net. I had some good times with you Sorc!
