The Majesty of Vashj’ir

      Today I want to talk about a place in the Warcraft Universe that is incredibly polarizing as well as in my opinion, one of the most beautiful places in World of Warcraft.   Vashj’ir is an almost completely underwater area added in the Cataclysm Expansion of World of Warcraft and is incredibly unique in this regard.  It

  So I got a chance to dig into the new Fire Emblem.  I’ll avoid plot points since the game came out in the US only today, but I am far more pleased with this game than expected.  And even though I started with the easy route, I am enjoying the game. I am hoping that the middle section of

Hearthstone is a digital card game.  Nay Sayers claim that being digital eliminates the legitimacy of the game.  I disagree.  I played Magic for a few years and Yugioh for a few months and I actually enjoy Hearthstone even more.

Overwatch Beta

Admin/ November 2, 2015/ Video Games

  The Overwatch Beta test is in full swing.  And I don’t have a key.  Yes I know, the salt is real.  The desperation to have one is even more real. What I have learned from being a Beta Tester in the past, is that Blizzard looks for a few traits when selecting its testers. First: If you are well

Life Parallels With Illidan Stormrage

Admin/ October 23, 2015/ Rants, Video Games

  As many gamers grow up, they find that one video game character that they realize is basically a more fantastic version of themselves.  For me, that character was and is Illidan Stormrage.   You are not prepared for me to drop this joke so I’ll just get that out of the way.  Ok, now lets continue.   I have

  I have already elaborated on a few of the slogans that drive my life forward.  To review, these two slogans are as follows: Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Fear is the most powerful of all emotions. Now, I will add the third aspect of what drives me.  The phrase listed above in the title is derived
