The Young Ones

   What do you get when a hippie, a cool guy, an anarchist, and a punk share a house at a University in the Thatcher era Britain of the early 80’s? Well you get the political comedy that has to be my all time favorite BBC show. Though it only ran for 12 episodes, it left it’s mark as one

GW2 Gamescon

   Not much needs to be said about this gameplay vid that Arena Net showed off at Gamescon. They pretty much knocked one out of the park. Awesome content right from the get go that doesn’t revolve around killing useless mobs to level up. Also want to note how the skill bar changes automatically when you change your weapon. Need

Breaking Bad

   Huge grats to Bryan Cranston for winning Best Actor and Aaron Paul for Best Supporting Actor at last nights Emmy awards. Usually i don’t care about these over bloated award shows due to my absolute hatred for anything on network TV. But since Breaking Bad is my favorite show and since i love AMC, i’ll make an exception.

FFXIV Beta Thoughts

I was finally able to snag a beta code and have a go at a game i’ve been waiting 4 years for. I’ll start off by saying that i realize this is the beta version and things may change before release, but unfortunately it’s not bugged mechanics or lag that has me concerned. Sure that plays a part but it’s

Shhh… Private

I know it’s sorta frowned upon to be playing on a private server, but i’m not really taking this seriously. I’ve been screwing around on an Aion private server for a few months now just passing time until FFXIV. It is what it is and honestly, it’s a shame that the game is more fun here than in retail. Basically

Inception

If you haven’t seen this film yet, go now. I’ve been a Nolan fanboy ever since one of my jackass friends insisted i watch Memento back in 2000. Now i’m not saying the man is Kubrick or Lean, but i love the way he puts his movies together. Been anticipating this movie since it popped up online about a year

Beta!

No, not the beta i was hoping for. Once again snubbed on getting into the FFXIV beta. I did however get into the beta for LOTRO for when it goes free to play. The games a little too solo based for me but still enjoyable. It does seem to be a roleplayers dream come true. Kat, you would love this

Rifts violently rip into reality across the land and release powerful forces that threaten the very existence of Telara.

FFXIV

   So…………….I’m on the fence with this game big time. On one hand it’ll be nice to start fresh. On the other, nothing really screams “you must play this” when i see gameplay footage. Now obviously i won’t judge a game before i get to play it, but nothing is really gravitating me towards it.    The game and environment

Vanguard: Saga of Heroes

So I’m reading random gaming sites looking for something to try and the game that kept coming up was this Vanguard game i heard bad things about. Let me give a brief history before i start. From my understanding, Sigil, the developer of the game went under making the game and was eventually bought out by SOE. The game was
