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 time we were still playing World of Warcraft daily. But if you didn’t already know, the newest expansion from Blizzard is set to come out on November 1st of 2010. Just in time for my 22nd birthday!
Cataclysm has a release date?!

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 other is calling for you upstairs to go to sleep (unless you’re playing multi-player). However after playing World of Warcraft the last two months we’ve come to realize why no other RPG will do it for us quite like WoW can. World of Warcraft gets an unnecessary bad rap from a lot of people, but usually those people haven’t even played it before. Here’s some reasons why we love it and why you, yes YOU!, should give it a shot.
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, our geek of the week!
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:
Day 11: I must admit, Joshua has unpleasantly surprised me with his progress in trying to beat me in our 
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 and promptly went out to grab my epic mount. Right now we’re fighting for domination in Outland, glaring at each other as we cross paths to and from the next quest. She’s a tough customer to be sure, but it’s been a lot of fun maintaining this coopetition of sorts.
Oh boy, if ever there were a day where my nerdgasmic excitement couldn’t be contained ladies and gentlemen, today would be that day. Why? Because today Blizzard announced that Sam Raimi would be directing the World of Warcraft movie. I love Sam Raimi as a director and I don’t doubt his abilities one bit, but I’m praying that somewhere in there my beloved Bruce Campbell will make an appearance. What do you think? Can the Spider-Man director tackle Azeroth?
