    Legend of Korra, Book 2: Spirits

    Well they did say that opening the portal would lead to a big battle between Vaatu and Raava, who is to say that Raava loses? After all through the Avatar Raava now has 10000 years of positive energy to draw upon whereas Vaatu has been stuck in a tree.

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

    I think this episode dovetails nicely into Winter Soldier in that we see SHIELD being a lot more proactive than in the past. Here they are actually invading a section of a country in the name of securing world peace which ties into Captain America's concern that it is turning into a police state.

    I was looking for the original thread, but the search function on this still sucks balls (and not in a good way)

    SimCity

    So the Sim City expansion apparently went live today and I'll be damned if I can see a single review of it anywhere... There's a blurb on the Wall Street Journal's site and something on yahoo news, but that is just taken from a press release. Did EA put the fear of god into gaming sites to...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Hardcoded factions are pretty much pointless. While there are some people who have a hardon for open world PVP I would wager that this makes up such a small percentage of their customer base that it really is not worth the cost anymore...assuming it ever was. Trion did away with theirs and...

    Thor: The Dark World.

    Hard to believe that this is already the 7th movie in the Marvel Movieverse, geekdom really is somewhat spoiled now with the mass market appeal that these have afforded. Disney has to be swimming in bank as a result of all of this, no wonder Fox is so bitter.

    Why is it that every fucking pet battle has two more join in? The guides seem to be written assuming that this rarely happens, yet I have never seen a single wild pet encounter that didnt have a full roster of 3

    Thor: The Dark World.

    Tom Hiddleston has really made Loki into a super fan favorite and Marvel could not possibly be happier with the result Im sure. I hang out with a lot of people who have zero exposure to comics but who have seen the Marvel Movies and to their thinking Loki is the number one badass in the Marvel...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I find it odd how manic Blizzard comes off as when people complain about the Time Travel aspect of this expansion. They immediately yell "ITS NOT TIME TRAVEL!!!" while foaming at the mouth and emphasizing that this is just your player experiencing Draenor at the height of its power. Is this...

    Disney's "Frozen"

    This comes out in a couple weeks and is a retelling of the Snow Queen by Hans Christian Andersen. The original teaser trailers focused on the physical comedy of Olaf the snowman and the Sven the reindeer and really did not touch on the overall plot of the film. Today they released a song...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Garrison seems to be the most substantial update for this expansion from a gaming perspective. Lord knows Sunsong ranch and the tiller/cooking questline was a pretty popular addition to MoP so it stands to reason that they would use an exponential progression from that to serve as 'daily'...

    Gavinrad's Mass Effect 3+ Thread

    Javik was meant to be the big "do not use Gamefly, do not buy used games" but ended up just pissing off actual customers more than it pissed off the non customers. The used gaming industry needs to be crushed because it does absolutely no good for anyone. I am saddened that Microsoft backing...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I don't see how they can wait until autumn 2014 to have any new content. Can't really have a full 12 month gap with zero new content. As it is having anything more than a couple months between major content patches allows the status quo subscribers to notice that monthly or 6 month charge and...

    Certain classes get the ability to cast on the move either for a limited duration or for specific spells (Shaman and lightning bolt comes to mind) but in general there is still a lot of scurry and plant

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The fact they wont even comment on potential release timing for this is somewhat disturbing and I cant imagine the shareholders would be amused. "We are one calendar year out from your last expansion and you have completed your last content update. Your subscription numbers are dropping...

    Okay so Garrosh escapes and goes back in time. Then the Dark Portal turns from green to Red and out come the Iron Horde comprised of the united Orc clans who are here in the present day to invade Azeroth on route to conquering all of reality. The Alliance and Horde fight off the Iron Horde...

    Well the farm isn't instanced either... so they will just use phasing technology to make it visible to you and anyone you invite over.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Anything about timing of release? Nothing here so far looks exciting enough to keep people engaged out of anticipation. What exactly is the Horde motivation for stopping Garrosh again? General "thou shalt not fuck with time space continuum?" Im guessing Garrison will have a smartphone...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Well the Garrison makes sense given how nifty the farm was in Pandaria... seems to be taking that and merging it with tradeskills / Bioware companions / STO duty officers. So will Outland still exist as incredibly out-of-date content for 60-70?

    Warlords of Draenorworks now Well it certainly seems Orc intensive I'll give it that. But holy crap the Draenei actually seem to get some serious action this time around.

    They will just have Inhumanity be the rest of genetic manipulation as part of the Kree Skrull war and voila: people born with genetically gifted superpowers are now Inhumans and not mutants and Fox can go fuck itself.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Well let's think here. 4.3 came out at the very end of 2011 and then there was a substantial 9 month gap between that and the release of MoP in September 2012. Subsequently the initial raid content trickled out until November 2012 and then the non-raid but otherwise fairly content rich 5.1 was...

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

    Ahhh very good catch. Yeah my original theory is dead in the water, but there is something going on with those two. Marvel is also making a big push to recast the Inhumans in the same role that the mutants once had. Why? Because Marvel owns the rights to the Inhumans for all media and...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Malkorok is a fun fight when you are the master of overhealing. Pretty obvious it was a gimmick designed to throw a bone at the classes that typically overheal for the majority of their healing output, but fun nonetheless.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I will say that the storyline of MoP has been the most consistently solid of any expansion to date. The little scene with Lorewalker Cho and the Emperor after you beat Garrosh where it answers the "Why do we fight?" question was a nice way to wrap up the whole plotline.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Eh. Running afoul of the Norrath syndrome here in that how many more hidden/secluded areas can there be on the planet at this point? Hence the movement into the Twisting Nether or Time Travel or something similar makes more sense.

    Warhammer Online RIP

    The game had a lot of style to it and the whole notion of the Public Quest was pretty damn revolutionary at the time. Too much of the world was predicated on assumptions that there would be a roughly steady state population of players of both factions throughout three parallel levelling...

    Mostly because Draenor no longer exists having been blown the fuck up... so the assumption is that any Warlords of Draenor would need to involve travel back in time to when the planet existed.

    Legend of Korra, Book 2: Spirits

    Ahh ha! So Jinora was indeed key to the whole thing afterall with her connection to the spirit world. Im curious to see how the Asami / Mako / Bolin / Varik storyline ends up tying into the rest of the plot. I wonder if Varik, as a transportation tycoon, isn't tied into this because the...

    from some stills that are showing up on the net it looks like Thor himself shows up in at least a cameo appearance on the show. Commentary has been made that the show will move forward along with the marvel movieverse and so we can expect references to the dark elves attacking etc to show up in...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    At the end of a Time Travel expansion they pull a Zebuxoruk and reset time so that nothing ever happened? I think Orcs have been kinda done to death at this point though. I rather thought that slaughtering thousands of them in Siege of Orgrimmar would have both helped explain why there are...
