  • Bad vs Good Matchmaking

    Hello again everyone.   Its been a busy summer for me, I have made sure to keep some time to play games and I figure its time for another “what I’ve been playing” update.    This time two games I’ve played approached a system in such strong opposite fashion that I’ve title my post around it.  Matchmaking. […]

  • Summer Highlights 1

    The game industry as well as my family have had a busy summer so far.  So much so, that I probably should have taken the time to compose posts about things as they were happening.   *shrug* Oh well, this summary of thoughts will have to do. The List starts here:

  • Cataclysmic Raids

    Wowhead posted some new information about the upcoming expansion, Cataclysm.  While I’m disappointed in the “Path of the Titans” loss, and not completely sold on their take on “Guild Leveling”, I was very happy to find this little nugget: Raid Lockouts Here’s another big change—they’ve added a great deal of flexibility to raid lockouts.

If you don’t want spoilers for the next World of Warcraft expansion, you should be careful about traveling to some of the popular WoW […]

  • Dear Blog, I need to rant.

    Dear Blog, I hope you don’t mind listening, but I feel I need to unload and you have always been a good shoulder for me to cry on. But the last couple of weeks have been exceptional.  I know I told you I was playing World of Warcraft again. I have been really enjoying my […]

  • What I’ve Been Playing

    Last week our family had to face the death of our long time canine companion, and that event weighed me down a lot.  In response this week consisted of a bit less “playing” and a bit more sleeping, though here is my quick list of things I played last week. Everquest 2 I toyed around […]
