  • World of Warcraft: How Blizzard Needs to Improve Siege of Orgrimmar LFR Immediately

    This one is written especially for the Blizzard developers and needs to happen ASAP, especially before Diablo 3 comes out. So currently, Siege of Orgrimmar LFR still has MAJOR issues. It’s far too long at this current stage and too frustrating. What is most striking though is that only part 1 seems to have a…

  • Why You Should Never Buy from Alienware nor Dell

    In the past, I had some pretty terrible experiences with Dell computers. On two separate occasions, I lost my drives just close to when the warranties were up. Part of me does not believe this was a coincidence. Fortunately, laptop drives are pretty easy to replace so I didn’t bother trying to replace them through…

  • Google: Don’t Be Evil, But We Do Harm? (The End of YouTube?)

    One of the so-called core philosophies in the way Google operates is their motto “Don’t be evil.” It was an idea adopted early on in the company’s lifespan. On top of that many of their product decisions was engendered through their “10 things” principles. As the company has grown to the mega-power over the years,…

  • World of Warcraft: Goodbye Again (Time Improvement Suggestions)

    Today, I decided to cancel my subscription to World of Warcraft for the 3rd time. I have to start focusing on my personal life again and re-building that aspect up. World of Warcraft, while fun, just takes far too much time and the way things have been, it’s been a fairly frustrating experience. What I…

  • World of Warcraft: Is the Legendary Cloak Worth It?

    In the upcoming 5.4 patch on the new Timeless Isle, there will be a new world boss that only people who have succeeded in obtaining the Legendary Cloak (meaning have completed the Legendary Quests for this expansion thus far) can access. As usual, there’s a huge amount of arguments that have broken out over on…

  • World of Warcraft: Annoying LFR Ji-Kun Bug

    Tonight I got into a reasonable LFR group for part 2 of Throne of Thunder. On the last boss, some warlocks ended up creating a mass of Demonic Gateways. Now, normally I would have thought that this would be a good way of handling the Down Draft and I might have tried a similar thing…

  • World of Warcraft: Reputation/Valor Point Changes to Gear in Patch 5.4 and Ruminations

    Some notes on the upcoming reputation/valor point change to gear is that pre-Throne of Thunder gear will cost Justice Points and cost between 1250-2250 points while having their reputation requirement removed. Shado-Pan Assault gear will have the reputation requirement for honored level gear reduced to friendly while the overall Valor Point cost will be reduced…

  • World of Warcraft: The Dangers of Loot Specialization

    While the loot specialization has it’s obvious perks, it also has its downside if you’re not careful. One of the things that can happen to you is forgetting to switch back to your original spec. This already happened to me a few times, even earning me gear that I wish could’ve gone towards my main…

  • World of Warcraft: The Absolute Necessary Feature for LFR

    Today, I experienced a rather disheartening DC where the servers just randomly shutdown while I was in an instance. At first, I thought it was my cable modem or router freaking out again, but it turned out that the problem was Blizzard’s server instability issue. The thing though was that I was at Dark Animous…

  • Diablo 3: Patch 1.0.8 Disaster, Gold Dupe Exploits and More Bans

    Today, Patch 1.0.8 was released and with a great deal of controversy. At first, the bugs seemed quite small with a few annoying issues that came out of a nice sized patch. Of course, you also have some QQ issues as well with the change in XP/drops for certain mobs. However, the real disaster occurred…
