Blizzard Store Now Selling Mounts and Pets

Posted by: Joshua In: Games

This is new to me, but maybe some of you out there have already known about this.  Apparently, the Blizzard Store doesn’t just sell cute and cuddly real world items, but is now selling virtual pets and mounts like the badass-looking celstial mount over there on the left.  My WoW account’s been cancelled for a [...]

The WoW Infographic

Posted by: Joshua In: Games

I have a special place in my heart for infographics and the below is no exception.  Of course I knew that Blizzard was wildly popular and whatnot, but to the degree outlined below I had no idea. I also had a hard time believing that humans are the most popular race.  I mean, if the [...]

Cataclysm has a release date?!

Posted by: Nicole In: Games

So I have no idea why I didn’t think to look it up at the anonymous game store, but apparently Cataclysm has been available for pre-order, i.e., has had a known release date since it was announced in August. I’m not sure how this minor detail slipped by Joshua and I, especially since around that [...]

Why You Should Give World of Warcraft a Chance

Posted by: Nicole In: Games

Josh and I gave the game Sacred 2: Fallen Angel a go a couple of months ago at the recommendation of a friend and co-worker. Like most hack-and-slash RPGs, Sacred 2 is strangely addicting. One moment you find yourself playing a few minutes before dinner starts and the next it’s 11:00 PM and your significant [...]

The race to 80 is finally, officially at its end.  It’s been a long, arduous battle and one that’s been an absolute blast.  Take a listen to find out who was the victor as well as the skinny on the new WoW expansion, Cataclysm, Inglorious Basterds, what’s coming for consoles this week and as always, [...]

The August Video Game Blues

Posted by: Nicole In: Games

If we’re a little slow bringing you the latest and greatest on video games this month, it’s because August is officially the slowest month of the year for new releases. This could be for a number of reasons: 1.) Lots of families are going on vacation before school starts. No time to play when you’re [...]

Hope this makes you smile!

Posted by: Nicole In: Games

While we were in our level 30′s Josh, Jon, a couple of WoW friends and I were breezing through Razorfen Downs and came across the giant gong spider as usual. However, this time when we killed it she was on a hill, so when she finally slammed into the ground it was face first. Hope [...]

5 Quick Observations on WoW

Posted by: Joshua In: Games

Today I was debating with my friend Jeff about why World of Warcraft is a masterpiece not just as a game, but as an experience.  In typical Jeff fashion he took the role of devil’s advocate and in typical me fashion I fell into it vehemently defending my addic-er, passion.  After some consideration, rather than [...]

Why Joshua Might (but Probably Won’t) Win

Posted by: Nicole In: Games

Day 11: I must admit, Joshua has unpleasantly surprised me with his progress in trying to beat me in our WoW competition. I’m finding it rather hard to keep ahead of him, as he is giving me competition I did not expect. And while I’m at it, I will also admit, he hit 60 about [...]

Weekend WoW Update

Posted by: Joshua In: Games

So I’m laying here trying to watch LOTR with Nicole and she’s wrapping up her auctions on my laptop.  We’re just about neck-and-neck currently with her just barely into 62 while I’m nearly out of 61 territory.  I’m sure she’ll give you the run-down later, but I did end up beating her to level 60 [...]

  • Nicole: Welcome :) I hope you enjoyed writing with us! We'd love to do more guest posts. If I knew more about Magic strategy I'd probably understand this post
  • Joshua: @JB Ahem, I had Reassembling Skeletons there the whole time! See? I uh, meant to do that...yeah... :p
  • JB: Just to let you know, with your comments about Demon of Death's Gate, you can't regenerate creatures that you sacrifice. So Dredge Skeletons wouldn't
