The gaming business may have seen a bit of a downturn this year but there are certain money makers that are tried and true successes.  Mainly anything with "Wii" in it and Modern Warfare; these are apparently keys to big business when it comes to software sales.

NPD hasn't released PC software sales yet for a year to date total plus they don't really track digital sales anyhow so the PC market is pretty hard to track minus data we get from publishers.  They do however track console game sales and…  More

Arcade UFO has held a strong lead thus far throughout the competition, but the fans of Starbase Arcade in Northern California are worthy opponents.

Here is a quick guide on how you can help Arcade UFO win a $25,000 prize which will immediately be re-invested to make the best arcade in the U.S. even better.

After my rant yesterday about how my WoW relationship was broken and the divorce lawyers called in because Blizzard's latest addition to the world (of Warcraft), Wrath of the Lich King, sucked so hard, it appears that I may have been a slightly premature in my writing.

You see we are having marriage counceling and trying to patch things up a little, but not with my account, with that of a friends. We are taking some time out to "see other people".

I was round at a friends earlier and he was on WoW…  More

    You wish your blog had a prologue!

     So I was sat on my ass yesterday while my server was down for nigh on 20 hours (frostwolf-US represent!), and I thought to myself "Hey, lets go read world of ming!". So I go have a looksee like i do every tuesday, and its a blog by one of his new guys, bodi. After reading his article and the charming comments section, I thought to myself "f*ck it, that looks fun".

     I've always enjoyed writing for the sake of writing, nothing forced, just doing it be…  More

Right to the point.  This current generation of raids is complete ****.  I mean this in every single regard.  From the content itself (the nature, difficulty, and volume) to the raiders themselves.  Every aspect is terrible.  I know I haven't written much lately, and for that I apologize (probably more to myself due to there most likely not being any real followers of thsi blog) but a huge reason for this is because Ive been rather flabbergasted at the state of this game and plenty of people are…  More

Lich King has dominated the NPD PC sales charts since its release in November.  Setting records in its wake such as the 24 hour sales record (2.8 million) and first months sales of 4 million.  Since its release November 16th and the following weeks NPD sales numbers it has been a lock in at the top spot.  Sometimes even holding two spots in the top five thanks to sales of the collectors edition.  Who knocked man off of the top spot?  Read on to find out.

Interestingly enough Left 4 Dead isn't on …  More

Hey everyone it's been awhile since I have written anything. Mostly cause I am lazy and I don't really make it a point. In Light of all of the 3.1 info coming out I would like to put out my opinions on some stuff. First, STOP MAKING EVERY SPEC VIABLE FOR PVP!!!! Next I read on one site that they are going to nerf mana regen because they believe that healers are healing without making much of a dent in their mana.

While some people are thinking you are an idiot and blasting the same "They messed …  More

Here we go again...
So, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, I have returned. I've been staring at this page for a while now, trying to decide what exactly it is that I want to say regarding WotLK. What "colorful metaphors" should I be using this time, how many animals should I sacrifice for the success of my blog, and just who the **** green-lighted this sack of **** anyway? Those of you that know me, know that I run in high-end circles for both PvE and PvP. I'll cover both topics, but I'll sta…  More

So I got an early xmas present this year in the form of a new computer.  I am pretty happy I gotta say.  I went half on the cost which was better than expected.  Anywho to give some kind of comparison from yesterday to today....

I went from:

Intel P4 2.4 ghz processor.
1.5g ddr ram
ATI Radeon X850 pro.
bout 500 gigs of HD space.
WinXP home

To:

Intel Core 2 Quad CPU.  Q6600
8g DDR2 Ram
ATI HD 3650
650g HD space

Vista 64 bit home edition.


So its a pretty significant upgrade to be sure.  Undoubtedly the vi…  More

Hey there, and welcome to my blog.

I will discuss my experiences here with the new and very popular Death Knight class.
With the release of the latest expansion, I have decided to abandon the Warrior I have played for nearly 4 years since the start of Vanilla WoW in favor of a new, unknown class.
And damn, I like it!
The starting experience of the Death Knight class is unlike any other. During a very short, but fun questline, which most people should be able to complete in 1 and a half hour, you lea…  More

So Ive gotten my warrior to 17 tonight and I have to say im very very happy with my decision to reroll from alli to horde.  This will be my second warrior, but it feels like a breath of fresh air.  The linked account system Bliz introduced is flat out amazing.  Im a terrible leveler but with the triple xp, ive managed to grind out 3 levels in one sitting (14-17.)  For somoene like me thats amazing lol.  To further enhance my enjoyment of the faction switch i transfered a Krol Blade, and had a Lionheart Helm crafted for this toon now.  Also sent over a few enchanting mats to ensure ill have fiery for all my leveling weps (and executioner for my first decent 60+ wep).…  More

The Burning Crusade (and its release patch) promised many things.  It would fix PvP, eliminating one form of honour grind for another easier, more acceptable one.  You would no longer have to utterly dedicate three months to farming Battlegrounds to get GM/HWL weaponry.  It would introduce Arenas, carefully balanced matches where the individual skill of players would shine, rather than gear and numbers.  Arena teams would eliminate the 'PuG syndrome' many felt in Battlegrounds.  Arena Rating would introduce a PvP ladder for people to crow about.…  More

My girlfriend recently got into playing WoW, so her and I went to our local GameStop to pick her up a copy. We were talking about the game while she was buying the Battle Chest, and the cashier asked if we wanted to pre-order Wrath of the Lich King.

When I asked, "When does it come out?" he replied "November 5th."

Now, the guy next to him mentioned that since it was Blizzard, it'll probably get pushed back, so if it isn't November 5th, we can probably expect a Christmas release.

So, buckle your …  More
