    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    What are they gonna do with the Cataclysm wrecked old world? It was a nifty idea at the time to "update" the whole planet, but with all the improvements to the dungeon finder I dont think hardly anyone actually made use of all the content. A good friend of mine who just started the game a...

    Captain America: Winter Soldier

    Looks like S.H.I.E.L.D. is no longer even remotely covert. There appear to be multiple helicarriers in action from the look of those hangars... I suppose having aliens and a god devastate NYC does set things into motion...

    Doctor Who

    The Big Finish audio dramas are a mixed bag, lots of people really like them but I find them hot and cold depending on the cast and the writer. Anywho this one is worth mentioning because it has the 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th Doctors plus one companion from each era all in one special story...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I feel sorry for Heroic Dungeons in 5.4 Just as with any other last patch of the expansion the ilevel inflation has resulted in what were, on day 1, pretty challenging experiences turning into total 5 min jokefests. Great for getting yer valor super duper fast but sheesh.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Well the first hour or so was cycling through tanks that had the bare minimum ilevel for the encounter and thus were getting one shot during phase 1. At one point I was cycling every heal I had on the tank and obtaining a thoroughly ludicrous 92% overheal (Monk) and it was still dropping dead...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Killed Garrosh after hitting 10 Determination and wiping for something like 4 hours. Was nice to be "done" but I do not think I will ever do that fight again in LFR unless they make some pretty extensive changes to it. Was nice that Varian at least mentions cleaning up Gilneas when you talk...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Garrosh seems a complete waste of time in LFR. The loot table for him is pretty damn lame since they eliminated the heirloom weapons for the LFR edition. I can see doing it once to say that I 'beat' MoP and then never doing it again or just leaving after getting the Klaxxi (for a chance at the...

    Legend of Korra, Book 2: Spirits

    Yeah the two parter was pretty much a standalone movie of its own, but it really fleshes out the whole notion of the Avatar. What is striking is how different the world is in Wan's time and what this could mean in terms of how the world might change following this upcoming harmonic...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    On Thursday I decided I wanted to not spend money on gems... so naturally I levelled my jewelcrafter up to 90 so he could fly and mine for ore to turn into gems. Of course he hit 90 and as a mail user got a nearly full suit of 496 armor, so I then had to go to Timeless Isle and get his ilevel...

    Health Care Thread

    I am currently on COBRA after retiring from my last job. This means I pay 102% of the entire premium for the same coverage as my former.coworkers who have their own insurance covered by the company plus a modest copay each psycheck. The joke here is that my former coworkers are paying ~$200...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I think the Emerald Dream is the great red herring of WoW. It was hinted at in the original release a decade ago with comments about Malfurion's absence and the presence of the big Emerald Dream portals which then produced the green dragon world bosses... but that was the end of it. If you...

    "It could be worse...my secret identity is as his black driver" I completely lost it with that line. That and "Sometimes I let my emotions get the better of me" from Brother Blood. Sensible line for the situation but nice fanservice for people who know. I will say that if the announced...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The natural new race would be Ethereal as the whole thing will likely involve taking the fight to the Burning Legion and the Titans rather than just waiting around for everyone to get ganked. Take the Blood Elven controlled and refurbished Tempest Keep and a finally repaired Exodar and use...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    So I decided to go to Icy Veins and look up how I am supposed to be playing... and apparently I am doing everything wrong. Which I find amusing since I seem to be getting the job done.

    The Tomorrow People

    Well at least they arent using sloppy crutches. When the watch showed up I groaned, but then Lucifer snatched that puppy away right quick. That having been said I fully expect that he will end up working for Steven's father who is using ULTRA and the hunt for the Tomorrow People as cannon...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Timeless Isle is coercing me into levelling up some of my alts since I already have a full suit of armor waiting for them to hit 90... This cant be good for people who actually want to do the older LFRs because there is really no point in them at all now.

    Especially parents as I know this is the sort of game I would have a very hard time denying to my kid hah.

    Skylanders Swap Force

    So apparently they launched the game with some elements not represented in the Swap Force combinations and are thus releasing a new wave of figures this week which include the missing elements? Holy cow this thing is like printing money. I feel sorry for anyone who gets wrapped into this game.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    With Watchdogs now delayed to Spring 2014 I wonder how this is going to impact PS4 and Xbone launches. Watchdogs was one of the very few launch titles that could be considered a AAA title

    Windows 7 profile not loading?

    I'm normally pretty competent when it comes to the family tech support etc. calls but this one has me stumped. Buddy has a problem where he logs into his win7 machine like normal only his actual profile doesnt load and he ends up with some generic desktop (likely a temporary profile is my...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Hmmm a friend of mine just started playing WoW a few months ago and remarked that he wanted to get a character up to 50 so he could play a Death Knight, so the limit may still exist. The Timeless Isle purple drops certainly are a boon to anyone who wants to play with their stable of alts. In...

    Hearthstone

    I gotta say the game is fun, until you run into the guy playing with tricked out blue / purple cards of game destruction when all you want is to get your daily quest done. I have no idea what the hell this person was doing in my lowbie bracket but I just tossed the towel in after he'd cast the...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Came back and did LFR to catch up to the overall plotline. Timeless Isle is pretty fun and the tradeskill stuff they added in with 5.4 is handy, I dig the noodle cart especially. I notice that Garrosh drops heirloom weapons that scale from 90 to 100... does that mean that 5.4 is the last...

    Doctor Who

    Watched some of Web of Fear... pretty damn great. Some excellent Troughton work and naturally it ties in directly to the Xmas special from last year. Somewhat mind boggling that these have been recovered after being lost for 45 years.

    Arrow

    Well Isabella Rochev is a class-A nutter obsessed with Oliver Queen's dead father in the comics... so I'm guessing it will be a long term plotline for the season.

    Doctor Who

    Enemy of the World and Web of Fear are the two stories that will be available on iTunes immediately. There may be others though... official word is apparently under embargo until midnight.

    The Tomorrow People

    Pretty decent. Stays true to the original material but nicely updated with a bit more tension. The ending wasn't what I was expecting coming into the whole thing, but Lucifer as a main character is a welcome sight. Funny that the CW gets to have an X-men mutant angst show paired with Arrow...

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    Im pretty sure now that Fitzsimmons is a mutant. A few times now Coulson has called for Fitzsimmons rather than Fitz and Simmons and only one of them answers. Not only that but for two people who supposedly have very different scientific backgrounds they seem to have had the same schools, same...

    Doctor Who

    Well at least a couple episodes were indeed found. The BBC has called a news conference for this coming Tuesday where apparently the list of episodes recovered will be announced and a couple will be screened for media in attendance.

    Breaking Bad

    Flynn really doesnt get much in the way of motivational backstory, or even any point-of-view scenes. He's just a prop for the entire series and that seems like a bit of a wasted opportunity.

    Hearthstone

    Bah I was hoping more invites would result from their wipe and server architecture migration. When chatting online I feel like everyone I know has been playing this already and despite what Blizzard posts on their facebook page I can't help but feel that coming late to the party means one...

    Shadowrun Returns

    Just got my swag from the Kickstarter. Tshirts are high quality and the usb dogtags with a copy of the game are actually pretty nifty. Got the art book too which is really well edited, can tell they put some time into this "collectors edition"

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    The show is practically an infomercial for the rest of the Marvel movie/dvd/toy franchise and as such will likely continue to get the preferred treatment from the Mothership. Unlike Warner Brothers who cannot get out of their own way with their DC properties Disney has a very clear strategy in...

    Arrow

    My guess is that they are going to drift towards metahumanity and by the end of the season we will not only have a superpowered Flash, but Laurel will manifest her Canary Cry and The Count will emerge from his catatonic state with his actual Vertigo powers.
