Korea's Fair Trade Commission Raids Blizzard's Offices

Read full article here... The tricky thing about company policy is that it has to be fair, valid and withheld within the countries they are operating in. A reader has posted this: "Korean Law gives them 7 days to return any software product if there is a problem with it and the problem is not the end user's fault. That's the main issue." The problem is indeed Blizzard's fault as they have not prepared for the titanic of players trying to log in and play the game. Seeing South Korea as one Blizzard's main flagship countries, I'm not surprised by all the complaints of the Error 37 fiasco. Playing Diablo III myself, I believe Blizzard were lazy about a lot of things in the development and release of the game. Shame real...

Champion Sneak Peek - Darius, the Hand of Noxus

If you’ve ever been frustrated by your progress in a given position, you might want to look to Darius, the Hand of Noxus, for inspiration. In order to secure his own advancement, this determined champion has repeatedly employed the foolproof method of lopping his boss’ head off. So whether you believe that the road to power is paved with the headless bodies of your enemies, or you simply think that a good beheading is a rather expedient method of dealing with red tape, we think you’ll agree that Darius makes a fine addition to the League of Legen...

Massivity: Will 2012's Big MMOs Hit or Miss? Prediction Time!

For full article read here "We're still a few months from finding out if 2012 will mark the end of the world, but five months in, I think it's safe to say that this year at least marks a new beginning for the MMORPG genre. For the first time in years, developers are producing games that seem like something other than World of Warcraft or EverQuest clones. TERA, Guild Wars 2, and The Secret World all have ideas within them that warrant some attention, and even Blizzard's mixing things up a little with Mists of Pandaria. All in all, it's a good year to be an MMO fan. But will these new games still be standing as tall this time next year? I'm no Mayan, but here are my predictions for how each of these games will perform in the coming mo...

Guild Wars 2: The Avengers Theme Builds

As a fan of Marvel and Avengers and today's release of the movie "The Avengers", I took a moment to make some fun Guild Wars 2 builds. Don't take them too seriously, but I did make them in mind of their viability. I couldn't think of one for Mr. Hulk Smash, as in weapon set since he uses anything to smash things, but I did have thought of him being in the warrior class, hehe. And yes, go watch The Avengers! Loki Thor Captain America Hawk Eye Black Widow Iron ...

Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: A Marriage That Works Despite Its Differences

Read full article here "... And yet here we are, mere months away from the arrival of Theatrhythm Final Fantasy, which manages to one-up Funky Fantasy both in terms of its preposterous design and its silly name. Nonsensical as the game may seem on the surface, in practice it's surprisingly fun. Rather than going the DDR route, Square Enix has instead chosen to base Theatrhythm's play mechanics more on the Elite Beat Agents model: Players drag and tap the 3DS's touch screen in time to on-screen cues synched in turn to the music. The input methods lack the hand-crampingly manic style of EBA, though on higher difficulty levels the prompts fly almost too fast to keep up with, and the similarity of the three input styles (tap, hold, swipe)...

Varus, the Arrow of Retribution Revealed!

Full post here Abilities: Living Vengeance (Passive): On kill or assist, Varus temporarily gains Attack Speed. This bonus is larger if the enemy is a champion. Piercing Arrow: Varus readies and then fires a powerful shot that gains extra range and damage the longer he spends preparing to fire. Blighted Quiver: Varus' basic attacks deal bonus magic damage and apply Blight. Varus' other abilities detonate Blight, dealing magic damage based on the target's maximum health. Hail of Arrows: Varus fires a hail of arrows that deal physical damage and desecrate the ground. Desecrated ground slows enemies' Movement Speed and reduces their healing and regeneration. Chain of Corruption (Ultimate): Varus flings out a tendril of corruption that...

Guild Wars 2 Builds - Necromancer: Scepter/Dagger - Staff, Dirty AOE for sPVP | WvWvW | PVE

Click here for detailed guide One aspect I loved about the Necromancer profession that carried over from Guild Wars 1, is the ability to apply conditions (debuffs) on enemies and spread them. It's like another way to deal damage aside from a direct damage route. This build is solely for that purpose, apply and stack conditions to multiple foes. You will be using Scepter/Dagger skills along with the Marks from the Staff set and Wells and Corruptions from your utility skills to get the job done...

Goodbye Star Wars: The Old Republic

Played SWTOR a little over a month… Had a decent time playing and leveling. Sadly, my enthusiasm for the game has come and gone. I do love the Star Wars francise, but in terms of execution and keeping a MMO player myself interested, Bioware and EA has utterly failed. PVP structure in this game is kind of broken. Honestly, post 50, they should have queue matches on tiered expertise and not just queuing to any level 50’s. Oh, and the number of people who lag switch just kills the fun in it all. The Flash Points and Operations were kind of lackluster for me making much of the end game PVE content very much uninteresting.  I still have the 30 days free from their event, but I believe I am done. Whenever the website works for me again,...

RIP - Junior Seau #55 San Diego Chargers (1969-2012)

Sad news for San Diego and across the NFL as former NFL football player and #55 of the San Diego Chargers has passed away today due to a self inflicting gunshot wound.

To see someone I have had so much appreciation, love and respect for saddens me. You will always be a Charger in my heart and I'll think of you whenever there are bolts in the s...
