Our thoughts are with Haiti

TweetShareAs gamers, and especially MMO gamers it’s very easy for us to get caught up in our own little worlds.

Star Trek Online Beta, Prelim Mirkwood Patch Notes, and… WoW Movie?

TweetShareWAR! Huh! Whaaat is it good for!? Sorry, I just got done watching Rush Hour 2… again. I gotta tell you, I love multi-tasking, I’m watching TV, playing Dragon Age, surfing the net, and eating a bagel, all at once, if only any of this was in some way productive.

Star Trek Online Beta, The Old Republic Launch Window Rumored and… WoW!

TweetShareScrambled eggs, smoked salmon, a croissant and a tall glass of fresh orange juice for breakfast. There are few better ways to start the day.

Star Trek Online, The Old Republic and Age of Conan.

TweetShareSad to say, but the absurd headache and general ill-feeling in my noggin is not the result of excessive New Year’s revelry, but rather the after effects of a particularly painful dental surgical operation. Wisdom tooth pulled, an an impacted molar removed (after grinding the jaw bone away to get to it) means that this [...]

The Last EpicToon Blog of the Decade!

Every fifteen minutes it seems there’s a reason to chow down on something sweet, sugary, fatty or fizzy.
