  • Adventure back in The Shire

    Tom Chick, over at Quarter to Three, proposed an Lord of the Rings game night where once a week forumers would come together in the virtual world of Lotro and adventure together. I played Lotro for about a month at launch, and while I had fun I felt alone. See none of my regular online…

  • This is not the SWG you are looking for.

    The other day my inbox greeted me with a message from SWG. Apparently as a part of a promotion my account has been re-activated, and I was invited to come back and give the game some attention. Overwhelmed with emotion, I rushed back. Ok, maybe not overwhelmed, but there was a bit of emotion; fear.…

  • RNG Achievements

    I really dislike achievements in wow that are not really things players achieve, but instead are more like battles against the random number generator. Seriously, if we are going to have such items on the achievement list they should have a dynamic value assigned to them. What I mean is if I catch a “rare”…

  • The second fable of the lich king left 4 dead fallout.

    So many games; really, too many. Started with Fable 2, which has surprised me. Its fun, colorful, and pulls me in when I play it. Sadly a week later Fallout 3 arrives, a game I have been waiting for for a long time. It is spot on, captures the feel and a whole lot of…

  • Post 2008 election thought.

    First, congratulations to Barack Obama on yourwin. While I disagree with pretty much all of your policy stances, I will support the office of the president. I will pray for your well being, and that as you faces the challenges ahead you do so with God in you heart, and mind. Second, if I hear…
