I got my PS3 for one main reason: Final Fantasy 14. The funny thing is, when I’ve told people about this, a lot of them think I’m crazy. On friend even asked me if I hated myself that much. Considering the reputation FFXI earned, I’m guess I’m not surprised people would be skeptical. Yet, at …

First Impressions: MAG (PS3 MMO – yes, it’s actually an MMO)
MAG is an interesting game. It’s part MMO, part RPG, and three parts FPS. It’s also the only game of it’s kind on the market, which makes it immediately interesting to a huge swath of players, myself included. I was able to playtest it for a few hours today and went from being disappointed to …
Returning to Agon
I decided today that I’m going to give Darkfall Online another shot. My subscription to Fallen Earth has just lapsed, so instead of going in for another month, I figure that it’s time to revisit this old favorite. I know, words of travesty to many of you. Darkfall, a favorite?! It can’t be. Who am …
What I’m Playing: January 2010
I’m a very touch and go gamer, so a lot of times I find myself forgetting which games I’ve played, how fair of a shot I gave them, and how I felt walking away. So, as we forward through the new year, I thought it might be a good idea to chronicle my gaming. Here’s …
Odds and Ends
It’s been a few days since my last post, so I thought I’d stop in and give you a quick update. My wife has this week off for the holidays, so we’re spending a lot of time together, not leaving much for gaming or blogging. That doesn’t mean nothing’s been happening, however. For example, we …
How to fix in-game events
Or, “Why in-game events don’t do it for me.” Enjoy! I’m not one of these guys that rails against in-game events. But, really, they don’t do much for me. Granted, I’ll usually poke my nose around and see what’s going on, but after a quest or two, and sometimes less, I’m out. Usually, I don’t …
The Multiverse – Episode #3: Epic Riknas
Hi Everyone, Welcome to Episode #3 of Riknas, Ferrel’s, and my pet project. We got together a little bit late this past week, so sorry about being a day late. This week, we talked about storytelling, immersion, and, yes, Epic Riknas. What is an Epic Riknas you might ask? Only the best up and coming …
Now taking questions for Syp!
Hi Everyone, If all goes according to plan, we’ll be having Syp of Bio Break on this week for Episode 3 of The Multiverse. So, we’re putting out the call for any questions or discussion topics you’d like to hear us talk about. Now, he’s a busy guy, and it’s finals week, so we’re not …
Gaming in a time crunch
Hey guys, sorry for the lack of updates in the last couple of weeks. It’s the end of the semester at my college and that means a lot of things are coming due. When I’d rather have been writing here, I was instead writing about feminism in Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. You can see where I’d …
Thoughts on the new 5-mans and beyond
Last night, I was lucky enough to log in to WoW and give the new 5-mans a shot. I say lucky, because, first, well, it’s the week before finals. Mostly though, because I’d still been hearing about instances not launching. It looks like that problem has been resolved though, since I was able to zone …
