Diablo 3 isn’t really that bad. Honest.
This is a follow-up post to Article of Note: Why Diablo 3 is Less Addictive than Diablo 2. Blizzard actually responded to Alex and he posted his follow up article today. I actually remember not feeling too enamored with D2 when it first came out. I was never a fan of the first Diablo, but people kept forcing me to play D2 and I eventually started liking it after logging in some serious hours with the game. I only became an addict after Ian and I started playing it so many years ago. Now … [Read More...]
New Official Guide – Varus: The Arrow of Retribution
Varus, just released on League of Legends, is an AD carry with some of the most extreme burst ranged skills to date. He's incredibly fun to play if you can make his skills work together, and deals tons of damage - with or without Trinity Force. We've spent the days since his release working on a few viable builds for Varus, both as mid-lane and bot carry, and even against some prominent top-lane champs, to see where he can fit in team comps. The answer, not surprisingly, is just about … [Read More...]

World of Minecraft II: Wings of Liberty
We finally have a Minecraft server! It's invite only (because we use whitelisting), so you have to get to know us before you can join. Some of the best ways are to either (get to) know us in person and ask for access, or prove to us that you are a person of fun and mature gaming caliber. Anyway, we started the server this past weekend with a seed that wasn't compatible with the latest version of Minecraft, so we reconfigured the server with a new seed featuring large mushroom and jungle … [Read More...]
Blizzard DOTA is coming!
Just when you thought the MOBA genre couldn't get any better with League of Legends and the upcoming DOTA 2, Blizzard just announced in October an upcoming official custom mod/map for StarCraft II called Blizzard DOTA! So what exactly is DotA? DotA is the original MOBA game created from a custom mod for WarCraft III. The mod was so popular that it led to international tournaments (even at BlizzCon) and both lead designers moving on to create League of Legends and DOTA 2. What will make … [Read More...]
IGN Prime is just prime.
Sorry for the lame Beast Wars Optimus Primal reference. So I signed up for IGN Prime yesterday for the sole purpose of playing the TERA closed beta this weekend. What is TERA? TERA is the first true action MMO that combines all the elements of MMORPG questing and character customization with the fast-paced energy of third-person action games. Apparently so. Check the website and watch the videos. Why IGN Prime? IGN Prime is a paid subscription to IGN that gives you exclusive … [Read More...]

Site design updated!
I was sick at home yesterday, so I sat down in front of the computer and redesigned the site. Looks pretty nifty, eh? The yellowish green color mixed with paint splashes was taken from my experience working underground (yellow spray paint turns green when it dries on my skin). The orange color just mixes well […]
