Brave – A Fairy Tale That Delivers The Magic
Last night I had an amazing experience. For over an hour and a half I was transported back into Scotland’s history. Back to a time when men were known more for their brawn than their brains. Back to a time when ladies were lasses and lads were… well lads. Back to a time when magic [...]

Star Wars The Old Republic 7 Day Free Trial – My Review
Yeah, I know. You’re sitting there thinking, “Hey! You’ve aready reviewed SWTOR. What gives?” You’re right but many of you said I needed to play the game longer and after beta. So, my friend Cocles of Loregy sent me a SWTOR 7 Day Free Trial and here’s my updated review. First off let me rant [...]
We are all Lore-Junkies
On the afternoon of April the first, two fools sat down for lunch. One was the world famous Brigwyn, master of the whirling panty raid. The other? The elusive Cocles of Loregy.com. Blogs were discussed, the idea of guest posts came up, and somewhere between my pancakes (because breakfast three times a day = awesome) [...]
Game Companies Must Be The Spawn of Sauron
One System to Play them all, One System to Load them, One System to Join them all and in the darkness Entertain them. I know, I know, Prof. Tolkien is rolling over in his grave right now. But that said, this is basically what this series on Console vs PC Gaming is all about. [...]
Myth Busted: PCs Are Not Better Than Consoles
While researching answers to some of the typical myths about console gaming I thought of a movie about misconceptions. One that reminded me that often times people rely too much on the “New is Better” philosophy. Oh sure, Real Steel is suppose to be a Father/Son buddy movie. But as a gamer I also can see [...]

It’s a funny thought really, isn’t it? Walking a Dinosaur I mean. It sounds ludicrous doesn’t it? Who in their right mind would even think of walking such a beast? (Well, okay besides Fred Flinstone or our little friend in the picture above that is.) But if such a concept is ludicrous, then why do we [...]

Why do MMOs today seem tired and worn out? I don’t mean comfy old jeans worn out either. I mean the annoying hole in the crotch, busted button, stuck zipper kind of worn out!
Star Wars: The Old Republic Is The MMO For…
Star Wars: The Old Republic is the MMO for RPG Gamers who are more concerned about their own character than the adventure.
There I said it. And even though I have only had a very limited time playing the Beta. I have read a ton of reviews and player diaries. And I can’t tell you how many YouTube videos I’ve watched. All of this trying to find a something to spark an interest in playing this game.
