Thanks to the World of Warcraft Scroll of Resurrection I get to play free for 10 days, on my main account, to see if I find the game interesting enough again. If an account has been inactive for at least 90 days, it can be resurrected by someone with an active account. This is much [...]
I’ve been getting the itch to play an MMORPG again lately but deciding which one to play is the hard part. Lich King just came out for WoW and I hear it’s good, much better than Burning Crusade. I also hear they’ve been making lots of game play changes over the last several months so [...]
It’s been quite some time since I’ve played an MMORPG so when I found out about Crowns of Power I decided to give it a try. The download is small and it’s free, there are no monthly fees either so it’s completely free to play. You can pay for premium features if you like, but [...]
I guess I really am just burned out on MMO’s these days, even with EQ2 being free I find I hardly ever log in to play. A friend is into Age of Conan and plans to give me a buddy key whenever they finally start handing them out, but that isn’t really high on my [...]
Better throw me into the drug rehab facility, I just spent the last couple hours immersed in Packrat. I’ve scrounged my way up to level 6, stolen things from all my in-game Facebook friends, bought several items off the marketplace and stolen from the likes of Rattori Hanzo, Captain Ratbeard and Marcel le Rat (I [...]
We all know that Facebook is just loaded with tons of crappy little games that are interesting for a few hours, or in some rare cases a week or so, and here’s another to add to the list. In Packrat you do what a packrat would do, you hoard collectible cards in an effort to [...]
This is easily one of the coolest new games I’ve played in quite some time. It’s small and cheap ($9.95 to buy online through Steam) and offers near limitless play options. The game shares some vague similarities with the likes of Guitar Hero and DDR in that it’s a musical rhythm game, but with some [...]
I always end up playing a healer in these online RPGs all the way back to EverQuest 1. I’ve tried playing as a tank, but it just doesn’t suit me. Ranged DPS would be my second favorite though, it’s nice to just ignore life bars and blast the crap out of stuff for a while. [...]
I’ve been playing Magic: The Gathering off and on for over 12 years, Revised edition was still selling in stores when I started. I used to play every Friday at the local hobby shop and we normally had between 12 and 20 people show up. Enough for a little tournament style play and it usually [...]
I must say I’m a sucker for betas. Problem is I never get into regular beta tests and have to wait for the one or two weeks where the open beta takes place. Anyway, I downloaded Tabula Rasa on the weekend, 3gb download, and tried it out for a couple hours.The graphics are pretty decent, [...]
Last night I sat there looking at my quest journal, and as usual I only had 1 slot open. I noticed that I had had 5 old ones for the Feerrott and since there are a couple of statuettes there for the Knights in the Round quest, off I went. During the 2 hours I [...]
The last couple times that I played EQ2, I had downloaded a massive spreadsheet list of all the quests in the game and ticked off the ones that I’ve completed already. The major pain with doing it this way is that when the list gets updated, I have to go through and re-check all the [...]
Been playing this a bit for the last few days and so far it’s good. As soon as I installed it and the patching completed, it crashed to desktop, ugh! I started it again and it worked flawlessly from that point on. It’s pretty fun too, quite similar to the old Dreamcast game, but less [...]
Signed up for EQ2 again last night and played for a bit. As usual it takes a while to get used to the controls again and trying to relearn which spells are buffs and heals and so on. Went to Rivervale to work on those infernal book quests a bit more since the mobs are [...]
