  • Aion Beta Afterthoughts

    It has now been a week since I last played Aion, and longer since I last put any thoughts down about it.  Though in that time as I re-read my previous posts and posts of others I felt a few more things rattling around. So I made the decision to let these last few […]

  • My MMO History

    My MMO History: A Working Draft I saw several other bloggers posting their MMO histories and I decided for the sake of my own history, I should build upon my previous list and make it an ongoing project. The first step was to take my list and put it in basic chronological order along with […]

  • Away from keyboard

    This week our family took a short trip out of town to visit family members out in Arkansas. While I did have internet access back at the hotel, my time browsing was limited and I did not have access to games; including WoW. Upon returning home, I was actually a bit surprised that I was […]

  • Monday Maddness

    Prototype Over the weekend I spent several hours enjoying Prototype. I was expecting a bit more of an “open world” game, one in which I could explore around the city and find all sorts of activities to do while ignoring the “plot”.  This game instead has activities which unlock at fixed intervals after each […]
