I decided to “try” Home yesterday just to see if there was any reason to log in daily, weekly; am I missing out? Before jumping in [Home and this article] I think it is worth quoting two Home articles from the official’ish blog, which pretty much summed up my prior opinion of Home. Midway games [...]
Just for shits and giggles I signed up for the Lord of the Rings Online beta to see if I can get in on some of the relaunch fun before the actual free to play relaunch this fall. According to Eurogamer: You’ll be able to play up to level 50 – the level cap of [...]
Over the weekend I decided to close down my WoW account. To be fair, WoW is a fun game, but I just do not get $14.95/month out of it. Around Thanksgiving or Christmas when I have a few days off I will probably reactivate the account, but for now I will move on to other [...]
After 18 months, last night on a complete whim, I decide to return to World of WarCraft. After finding my finding my boxed version game – the older version with 5 painstakingly slow loading CDs – I installed the game. This took a good hour. At least it felt that way, but I was not [...]
I think it is pretty damn impressive that the World of Warcraft (WoW) subscriber base is currently at 11.5 million. Meanwhile, Activision Blizzard’s most recent World of Warcraft subscriber figures revealed 11.5 million users are signed up to the game, with those located in the US paying USD 15 a month to play online.

The statistic is even more impressive when considering that an estimated 675,713 [...]
What do you do when your air gun is broken, you do not get NFL network, and the Bowl games are crap? You play some World of Warcraft! My gnome mage just hit level 39. To be honest, I would rather punch paper or watch the Cowboys, but a little time with WoW along with [...]
There are a couple of guys at work that I consider pretty serious WoW gamers. These are guys with multiple L70 characters, which got me to thinking. My mage just made L38, and is about 20% of the way to L39. If I manage to clear one level per week, I am not going to [...]
Since Chris threw down the gauntlet, I had to play some WoW tonight (second time in the last few days), but I am nowhere near closing in on 70th level. I guess I am just not good at leveling, grinding, power gaming, or whatever you want to call it. I have a nice little quest [...]
