Shaw Brothers Vengeance Kung Fu Movie Review
As a young child, I often watched the old Black Belt theater on channel 11 out here. At the time, I didn’t know them by name, but I would watch Shaw Brothers martial arts movies on Saturday afternoons and later switch to Kung Fu theater on channel 9 later in the evening. However, the Shaw…

Diablo 3: The Darkening of Tristram Event Review
Since the PTR is out, I decided to give it a go and check out specifically the Darkening of Tristram event. I had seen Kripparian’s video where he posted a fairly scathing review and decided to see if it was worth his ire.

Boom Beach: Finally Defeated Hammerman 40 and Gearheart 45
It took me a while on my high level account to get to Hammerman 40 and Gearheart 45. Part of my procrastination was to get more of my troops and gunboat offenses up. Another aspect was to avoid getting the 5 VP and push myself too much. However, since this is an all troop at…

Boom Beach: The Brutality of Leveling Underleveled Landing Craft
Landing Craft are some of the most important and expensive support type of buildings to upgrade, especially once you hit the upper mid game (~HQ16+). Right now, I’m getting my last landing craft (of my seven) to 15. From here on out, it becomes a lengthy grind towards 19.

Earlier, it was “accidentally” unveiled of a poster showing a male and female Necromancer artwork on the Blizzard store, hinting at the possibility of an…
