Rock, Paper, Shotgun. Assorted types of goo". A Rant: Enough Of Single-Player MMOs. On May 23rd, 2012 at 11:00 am. According to The Elder Scrolls Online game director Matt Firor, the series’ online spin won’t be quite as social as expected. At least, not completely. “We have a whole part of the game that’s 100% solo, and that’s the main story,” he explains to an invisible interviewer in this Game Informer video. 8220;Everything you do is solo and the world reacts to you that way.”. Worst of all though, p...

Rock, Paper, Shotgun. Catharsis ain't what it's cracked up to be. A Life In PC Gaming: My Shame. On December 12th, 2011 at 1:28 pm. A little later, after my Voodoo 2-inspired sabbatical, the release of Aliens vs Predator led to my deciding to build a new PC from scratch. I’d never done this before, but I had upgraded pretty much every common component at some point or another. What could go wrong? As a young boy impatiently wanting to access to my family’s PC so I could play more X-COM, I would occ...

Laquo; A Face Only A Mother Could Love. The Tao of WoW. Raise your hand if you’ve ever engaged in any of the following activities: Hiking, camping, fishing, hunting, orienteering.

Laquo; Talking Smack. A Lot Of Hot Air. When I first learned of Mechanist Games’ City of Steam. I was confused by its name. I thought it was somehow associated with Valve. “Hmm. A game set in the steam punk genre? This could be interesting,”. Finally, I took a look at the game’s various races. Whereupon I hit a brick wall. The comic above was taken directly from these images – I just didn’t have room for all nine of them. 8220;Wow. That’s some cleavage! 8220;Less cleavage. More navel.”. 8220;More pushed-...

Part I: Tank, Damage, Healer. Part II: De/Buffer, Utility.
