Mass Effect 2: What Mass Effect 2 Means For Star Wars: The Old Republic (Video)
Feb 16th
I have fallen in love with BioWare’s RPG’s. Many of you may have been experiencing the quality games they’ve been putting out for quite a while now, but I was a relative RPG newbie – until recently. I had not played Mass Effect 1, but had ME2 on pre-order, especially after having played Dragon Age: Origins. Nearly 3 weeks after I started the game, I have completely finished the game on Insanity difficulty twice. I did it first as a Sentinel and second as a Vanguard. I also played about half the game as an Adept, and… Read >>
Dragon Age Origins: 5 Things You Should Know Before Playing
Nov 24th
Last night brought me to the completion of the main story line in Dragon Age: Origins. I had alot of fun with this game, and while some parts seemed a bit drawn out, the end campaign was not. I’ll post full spoilers and video in another post, but for now I thought I’d take the time to pass along some useful information that I would have liked to have known before getting started. There’s shouldn’t be much in the way of spoilers below, but if you get satisfaction out of doing it all on your own (even… Read >>
LotRO: Back in the Saddle
Nov 17th
After waiting patiently for payday, only to find that I am supposed to be buying my family and loved ones Christmas gifts right now, I didn’t think I was going to get to partake in Lord of the Rings Online’s Siege of Mirkwood special offers. Ever since I did a walk through for MMORPG.com with Turbine’s Aaron Campbell, I couldn’t stop thinking about going back to Middle-earth. The changes coming to the game on December first are pretty damn amazing, and I was anxious to get re acclimated to life as a dwarf before the expansion launched.
Last night… Read >>
An MMORPG Without The MMO: What Dragon Age Origins Might Mean For Star Wars The Old Rebpublic

Confessions of an RPG Virgin
I was not interested in playing Dragon Age Origins, even through all the pre-launch hype and marketing blitz. I’m a multiplayer kind of guy, and sadly there is no multiplayer in Dragon Age. It’s a single player only game, and my frame of refernce to these kinds of games have been set by my experiences with games like EverQuest and World of Warcraft. My first RPG was an MMORPG. When I first logged into EverQuest some years ago, I was amazed to see all these other players running around and doing their… Read >>
It’s Dragon Age Day!
Nov 3rd
Well, today’s the day that just about every gamer who is down with RPGs has been waiting for… the spiritual successor and possibly evolution of Baldur’s Gate is released upon the masses today. Dragon Age: Origins is here. How will you be celebrating?
The web will soon be filled with blogs about the game’s greatness, it’s incredible lore, it’s nostalgic throwback to CRPGs of old, and hot elf-on-girl action (that’s right, Bioware got dirty again). Pete will likely not come up for air until he’s beaten it. And I’ve also got the game downloading at home while I… Read >>
Torchlight: Quick First Impressions
Oct 29th
Torchlight is a game that’s been floating around the blogosphere quite a bit since its release early this week. And with good reason. This gem of a game is the product of a lot of love from a developer who’s had some major ups and downs in the past couple years. Runic Games is formed entirely (with some additions) of the same team that was working on Mythos before Flagship went belly-up. It should comes as no surprise that Torchlight bears a striking resemblance to not only… Read >>

So, in case you’ve missed it… JoBildo’s back in Middle-earth. I’ve really been enjoying my stay there so far and I’ve even started a Warden to go along with my trusty ol’ Champion. But right now, aside from getting familiar with just how much the game’s changed in the past couple of years, I’m spending most of my time drooling about the main major feature of Turbine’s upcoming expansion: Skirmishes.
Ravious of Kill Ten Rats has even gone as far to call this feature the potential future of the MMO landscape, and while that may be a bit… Read >>
