The Hunter in Cataclysm: Survival
I didn’t have the good fortune to make it into the beta for World of Warcraft: Cataclysm but with the release of the latest Patch, I can now make some educated guesses as to how the different talents of my primary class, the Hunter, are going to fall together. I plan on using my secondary… Continue reading The Hunter in Cataclysm: Survival
Games as Storytellers
After finishing off A Game of Thrones, the review of which I intend to write up some time this weekend, I started taking my DS on the train instead of a book. I fired up the updated Chrono Trigger. It’s amazing how quickly the game sucked me right back into its story. It’s made me… Continue reading Games as Storytellers
Surviving The Patch
He’s back, and he’s pissed. Most of the people I know who play World of Warcraft are looking forward to the latest expansion, Cataclysm. Those of us who’ve played the previous games remember Deathwing, and are pretty pleased with both his place as this expansions ‘Big Bad’ and his upgraded appearance.

It allows you access to DLC that would otherwise be free, like option party Zaeed Massani. Chances are, if you’re reading this and own Mass Effect… Continue reading DLC Review: Kasumi's Stolen Memory & More
Four Ecks
Espionage and fabulous cloaks are the Darlok’s specialities. A lot of my friends and co-workers have been losing quite a bit of free time to Civilization V. Had I the free resources, I’d be very likely to join them. Civ 5 is the latest in a very long and storied tradition amongst computer games, one… Continue reading Four Ecks
Cerberus Daily News
As much as I love BioWare, I can’t shake the notion they’ve gone in the wrong direction. You see, they’re developing a Star Wars MMO. Granted, it’s set in the wildly popular and surprisingly rich universe of the Old Republic, the same as their previous RPGs and some of the best comics written in that… Continue reading Cerberus Daily News
