Three emails sent and still no reply. I changed my PayPal password. I checked the balance. Like every 5 effing minutes to see if anything had been siphoned without my knowledge. Tlktck’s warning about Spyware in MrWoWGold’s website still has me on edge. He’s pretty confident about his claim. I’m not so ...1 day ago -

Little more Dragon Age, and some DDO F2P thoughts.
Hardcore Casual —
Authority: 511
As I stated in my Dragon Age review, I was very impressed with the combat engine when, after finally defeating the first boss, one of my characters jumped on him and put his sword through the Ogre’s skull. All of this was done in slow motion, but in-game and without any delay. Yesterday as I was playing I had ...4 days ago -

The Grouchy Gamer —

I may have used that title before, because let’s face it.. In my case it’s pretty recyclable. I’ve ranted here before about microtransactions, and the negative effects of RMT on today’s games. I’m not a big fan. But what I don’t like is the type of MT that gates or changes game play. So when ...5 days ago -

World of Matticus —

Blizzard’s opened up the virtual pet store where you can purchase the first of several pets to come. I don’t actually know this, but I’m fairly certain we’ll be seeing more purchasable pets later. What’s the big deal? In a nutshell, the micro-transaction MMO model involves consumers paying for certain ...6 days ago -

I don’t care for the Champions store. I am an old school AD&D player — 1970s style. We earned our loot. We earned our perks. We worked for it. Now the general argument seems to be that the C-Store’s RMT (real monetary transaction) system makes no change to the game equilibrium. I come from a [...]1 week ago -
