World of Warcraft – Part 05 – Alliance

I need to start doing this more often, I’m starting to get a bit ahead of myself and starting to forget what I wanted to talk about.  I am trying to keep SOME level of continuity here.  When I last posted, i had mentioned the huge patch for Mists of Pandaria.  I managed to get beyond that, mostly, my laptop still hasn’t finished downloading it all.  Anyway, the update wasn’t as bad as I had thought since you can still play during the update process.  The download for WoW goes through several stages including “Playable” and “Optimal”. The ultimate issue…

World of Warcraft – Part 04 – The Patch

So, I’m a bad ass Blood Elf Fury Official now.  You can tell because I’m wielding a bloody cleaver and killing WoW Lions and Goblins and Dark Elves and shit with it.  If wielding a meat cleaver over a sword doesn’t scream BLOOD FURY WARRIOR I don’t know what does. I have managed to surpass the Level 20 mark, which is the threshold for Free to Play.  In fact, there is a magic gate thing that prevents you from going farther in the world.  I saw the same gate on my Orc Hunter in Orgimmar.  A bit of lead up…

World of Warcraft – Part 03 – Blood Elves

So yeah, my experiment with MMOs has come to a bit of a culmination of events.  In general, I’ve been finding myself kind of frustrated and stuck in a bit of a rut when it comes to games in general.  In order to try to spice these things up, I decided to do something I haven’t ever done and have actively preached against for ages.  I signed up for an MMORPG.  I don’t mean, started playing some watered down Free to Play game, I mean a paid monthly subscription (not that i can’t cancel it later or anything). I considered…

Review – Saints Row the Third DLC Part 1: Genki Bowl VII & Shark Attack Pack (PC)

I’m pretty torn on the Downloadable content for Saints Row the Third here.  On one hand, I really love this game, and more is good.  On the other hand, a load of it is costumes that SHOULD have been built into the game to start with.  At the very least they should run closer to a buck each and not the standard $2-$3.  Yeah, yeah, $3 is not much but consider that at this point, buying all of the DLC will cost you MORE than the game itself.  It adds up. I did get some of the DLC off of…

World of Warcraft – Part 02 – Giving it a Chance

So, I was trying to hold out just a little longer before writing another one of these for something else… something, better.  I will probably get to at least one more of these posts, maybe two if I manage to get to my level 20 cap.  If you’re just tuning in, or have not gotten what’s going on here, I’m working on playing through some of these many Free to play MMOs available on the market and giving some thoughts.  I’m starting with World of Warcraft since it is “the game”, or at least, it once was and seems to…
