Hey guys, just dropping my last Burning Crusade PvP video seeing as though Wrath is underway. I saved the best for last so enjoy. This video is 3 in 1. These matches were right before the season ended and they highlight some of the better CC rotation we had gotten down. Well, as this is the end of BC, I will be dropping more videos after the new season starts up… until then, Happy Leveling!

Boy Saves Life with WoW knowledge.

jon — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 01:52:00 +0000

Who ever said you can’t save a life with what you’ve learned in a video game?

Sure, you’re waiting for the moment the zombie apocalypse to come so you can use your Resident Evil 4 skills to outlast everyone else. Or a car crash to happen in front of you so you can save someone’s life with your leet Trauma Center skills.

But how often does it come around when you can use your mmo knowledge (besides the force, you Star Wars Galaxy people)?

Well Jørgen Olsen survived a moose attack in Norway by using what he learned in WoW, Feign Death.

Granted yes, this did happen about a year ago. But still very cool to read.

Star Wars Galaxies Hoth Echo Base

justin — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 00:20:25 +0000

Hello again, I’m going to talk about SWG and the new Hoth Echo Base heroic instance. So far they have only put it on Test Center and it is pretty dam cool. As the Imperials, you get to control AT-ST’s (chicken walkers) and you can have two people in the vehicle. One person drives and shoots, and the other person shoots from either the ear turret or launches rockets from the other turret. You have to defend the AT-AT’s that are on the way to blow up Echo Base’s power generator. On the way to the generator you get to kill rebel ground troops, ground turrets, and the Snowspeeders that are flying around. After you defeat the generator, I hear you enter the base and you get to kill more reb’s inside. Unfortunately, I haven’t gotten that far yet. I haven’t played the Rebel side yet either, but I hear you can fly the Snowspeeders and attack on the ground. From what I’m told it’s pretty cool. I’ll have more next time… until then, May the Schwartz be with ya’. OOPS, wrong movie.

Terror in Santa Barbara

hayden — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 23:30:02 +0000

This has nothing to do with gaming… This has to do with one of the most beautiful places in the United States, Santa Barbara California. I once lived there in Isla Vista on Del Playa, for any of you that have been there you know what’s up! Santa Barbara brings everything I enjoy into one place, there is no need to ever leave the Santa Barbara area. You have fresh fish from the harbor, great wineries and organic farms over the Santa Ynez mountain range, a skate park on the beach and multiple good surf breaks. On top of this you have easy access to the Channel Islands (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_Islands_of_California). So Santa Barbara has a special place in my heart for sure and also my cousins both live there. So the night of November 13th I got a call from my cousin saying he was watching flames burn just blocks from his house. This fire was called the “Tea Fire”, it was getting headlines for a day on all the major news networks… Anyway good news his house was fine and also I got some images from that night… This is pretty scary shit!

A picture from the water off Santa Barbara of Tea Fire

Now here is that same picture during the day, minus the fire…

For any of you that have been effected by this or know people that have our best wishes go out to you. If you are interested in helping with donations or in other ways there is a great amount of info found here at the Independent, a local SB paper (http://www.independent.com/news/2008/nov/18/tea-fire-and-sympathy/).

Why do they copy?

hayden — Sat, 15 Nov 2008 16:04:05 +0000

Thsale, Brogame, Power4game, Team4power and many other RMT sites are all under one company with Asian VC backing them. I wonder why with all of the money and so called brains behind the opperation they still cannot create their own original content. I have contacted Thsale multiple times over the past few years to fix this typo LOL!! Check it out and decide if you want to deal with a company that blatently plagurizes another website. Here is (Brogames Affiliate programs terms), do you notice the mention of “Massive Online Gaming Sales”? Hmmm..

This seems to be the norm with many of our oversea competitors, ruining peoples gaming experience with in game spam, making completly false statements on their websites about delivery time or available stock. The good news is that MOGS is taking the steps to help eliminate these companies.. stay tuned and watch as we take the RMT market to the next level leaving all the amateurs behind!

Zombie Hunters Unite!

justin — Sun, 09 Nov 2008 02:52:49 +0000

On November 18th EA and VALVE release the long awaited Left4Dead. You join the action as part of a four man zombie hunting team, or in an interesting twist, as a boss zombie with super strength and an insatiable hunger for human flesh. Left4Dead promises infinite replay value because of its “AI DIrector” which promises to “generate a unique gameplay experience every time you play” by “adjusting pacing, special effects and audio on the fly.” Sounds like fun! To check it out for yourself shamble on over to the official Left4Dead site at http://www.l4d.com/.
