The Great Week of Patches

So the great week of patches has come and gone with both ups and downs. The first WoW came out with the long awaited 4.3 patch. The patch included transmogrification, void storage, a raid finder, 3 new 5-man dungeons, new raid content including the defeat of Deathwing, and last but not least The Darkmoon Faire. The new 5-mans I thought were a blast and I've enjoyed them a lot more than the Zul dungeons. I haven't had a chance to use the raid finder or run the new raids because of my lack of gear but should be able to by the end of the week, not that I'm very good at the entire world of raiding but oh well, right. As for the Darkmoon Faire I've had a lot of fun running around playing all the little mini games. It's also a great place to level everything every profession you can think of. There have been some problems however. I made a warlock for giggles and can't delete him, it tells me that he has a heirloom or important item on him even though his mailbox, i...

A look at the upcoming Final Fantasy Type-0

I'm a super Final Fantasy fan and while I think the series has lost its direction, I have been looking forward to final Fantasy Type-0. I found this video of game play if you want to check it out.   And if you want to check out the site that I found the video  here's a link . This one looks like more of an action rpg along the lines of Kingdom Hearts. Still no release date so we'll all just have to sit around drooling over the little scraps they choose to throw us. Also along the lines of Final Fantasy we have we have the re-release of  of Final Fantasy 5 and the all mythical Final Fantasy 6 on the Playstation Network, and Final Fantasy 13-2 will be released on both he PS3 and Xbox 360 January 31, 2012.

WoW new commercial, can you say Chuck Norris?

That's right the new WoW commercial is here for our enjoyment. When they got Mr. T to come out with his commercial the people cheered, so who could be next? Who could top Mr. T, oh that's right you know you were thinking it, CHUCK NORRIS! If you want to check out the commercial here's a link to the youtube page with it. Wow commercial link   So now that we've had a commercial with Chuck Norris, who do you want to see next? As always I look forward to your comments, that is if somebody left one I'm sure I would like it.

Things to do while waiting for WoW 4.3

So everybody is on the edge of their seat waiting for patch 4.3 to finally get released but it's still not here. I was really thought it would be here by now but hey I can't be right all the time. So by now you've run those pesky raids and TB is just a memory, what's left to do? Here's a list of things I've been up to. Finishing those extra professions. Fishing, first aid, archeology, cooking are all things that I was always planning on doing at some point and just never got around to it. Mount and Pet collecting. Their are tons of pet and mounts to collect all over the world.  Most of them take mind numbing amount of time and will having you beating your head against the keyboard to get but it's all worth it when that stranger comes up to you says " you must be crazy to go fishing for that long for a turtle." Gathering old raid gear. Since we are getting that transmogrification, now's the time to pick up all that super slick gear from days...

Zelda, Chrono, Final Fantasy Oh my!

While many people have guessed that the next Zelda game to put onto the 3ds would be Majora's Mask, creators of the series have said that they want to make a brand new game. Also Miyamao has said that he wants to remake A Link to the Past. As a Legend of Zelda fan I really don't care which one they put on there as long as we get another one. I've had a lot of fun playing Ocarina of Time for the first time and look forward to playing any others I can get my hands on. Also on the Playstation Network fan favorite Chrono Cross has been released for download. For the Final Fantasy fans out there, Final Fantasy 5 will be released on November 22 and the  super long awaited Final Fantasy 6 will be on the network on December 3. Final Fantasy 6 is thought to be the best Final Fantasy Game of all time, personally Final Fantasy 7 was my favorite. What do you think, do you have a favorite Final Fantasy game? Let the world know which one is the best by leaving a comment down below.

Skyrim Review

Maybe I'm biased but I've been playing Elder Scroll games since way back in Morrowind and I've loved each and every one. This game is no different. Skyrim moves the Elder Scrolls world ahead since our last adventure in Oblivion 200 years. We are now far to the north in the land of Skyrim. The graphics are stunning , but only if you have the system of run them. I have a mediocre laptop to run it and even with everything running on it's lowest setting  I still experience random bouts of lag. I'm not sure about this because I can run Rage and Deus Ex without any problems at all.  Just incase somebody has ideas on how this might be stopped my system specs are : Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Intel Core 2 Duo CPU  2.53GHz 2.53GHz 6GB Ram GeForce GTX 260M Still the first time a dragon lands in front of you, you can almost feel the fire blowing over the top you. The combat has changed since that last game as well. You can now assign a weapon to each hand or a spe...

Skyrim Launches Tomorrow!

So the day that we have all been waiting for is finally happening tomorrow, Skyrim launches. We finally get to find out if all the vids, pics, and articles that we've all main lined into our heads live up to our expectations. So what great things are we waiting for: Dragons , lots and lots of dragons. Dragons in the air, dragons on the ground and oh did I mention dragons. We get to roam the landing killing dragons collecting powers from them. I think this is every fan of Elder Scrolls dream. Duel wield. This is the first Elder scrolls game that you can duel wield not just two, one handed weapons but two spells as well. You can mix and match spell combinations to produce different effects. Or if you want keep that sword in hand and use the other to zap your enemies. Supposedly infinite quests. While the game does have a main story quest set and guild story quest set, I've read how quests will be randomly generated potentially giving the player an almost infinite set of ...
