A Spore Nerd Corner

I was just reading a review of Bloodborne that wasn't all that positive and people said he hated it because he just wasn't hardcore. He's just a casual gamer that should go back to playing candy crush. I haven't played Bloodborne, but if I don't like it does that make me a casual gamer? Does it even matter if somebody is a casual gamer? We shouldn't be so fast to judge people. It doesn't matter how much you spend, or what you play. It doesn't matter if you spend the day battling monsters in Bloodborne or all night raiding in WoW. All that really matters is that you love playing games.

Are you playing Elder Scroll Online? Well you should be. Yeah I know, I didn't think it was going to be any fun at all and at first I wasn't all that impressed but slowly that's changing. I've been a huge Elder Scroll fan since Morrowind, and when mmo hit everybody put it down so I figured it would be F2P in a year, or just dead, so I stopped paying attention. Then they announced it was going to go B2P, kind of a newer concept, and I figured why what the heck. You really can't get something for nothing. So no it's not Elder Scrolls, well it is but it isn't. If you go in expecting to play a copy of Skyrim you aren't going to be happy, and on launch their was a ton of bugs, and bots. Lets be on honest I don't think the game was completely thought threw when it was launched the first time. But this re-release, and that's what it really is, is actually a ton of fun. I haven't run into any bugs, or bots so far and I haven't seen anybody ju

So this is the end of StarCraft, Blizzard announced. OK so maybe not the end, end but with this last expansion, Legacy of the Void, will be the end of this StarCraft story, but the universe will persist. "StarCraft will live on as a universe. We hope to explore some other aspects of the universe, but the storyline that was setup in StarCraft I and continued in StarCraft II will resolve in Legacy of the Void. All of those main characters will reach a nice satisfying conclusion." So while we'll be sad to see Raynor, Kerrigan, and Zeratul  go, we can look forward to seeing what's next for the amazing Starcraft galaxy.  Before that though we still have one last blast with this upcoming expansion. Blizzard announced that closed beta invites will start on March 31.  I know I'm going to have to replay my way threw StarCraft 2 before the next expansion hits.

The release date for the new Metal Gear Solid game was recently released. Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain will be release worldwide September 5 2015. You'll be able to pick it up for Xbox One, Xbox, Ps4, Ps3 and the PC.

One of the big things WildStar did right was it's billing.  You could just pay a subscrition, you could go out and get game time cards (good luck finding any), or you could use in-game money to buy another form of money that could actually buy game time. Really I never bought any WildStar time, I just used the free trial time, then bought the rest with the in-game money. Now flash over to World of Warcraft. They've decided to do basically the same thing! Feel free to cheer, I know did. You'll be able to buy and sell WoW tokens threw the in-game store. The WoW token will give you 30 days of time and can only be sold once. So how much will this magical token cost? All pricing is still up in the air. In-game the price will be dynamic according to supply and demand. I think this is a great change. If you don't want to pay the sub but you spend tons of time playing the game, hopefully, it'll be easy to just use your gold in game to buy time. If you need gold, again h
