A Shantotto Ascension, Free Realms, and EA Mythic Layoffs

It’s the wee hours of the morning (8:30 is still the wee hours right?) and I’m exhausted. You see, I got Uncharted 2: Among Thieves last night and made the mistake of popping the disc in for “a quick run”. Seven hours later, bleary eyed I take a glance at outside and the sun’s up… [...]

A Shantotto Ascension, Reaching Aion Level 50, and The Icecrown Citadel

Aion Video Podcast #3, Version 1.5.05 Patch Notes, Abyssal Maw Details

I make this solemn vow, I will pay one squintillion Aion Kinah to the person who makes it possible for me to play a revamped version of Double Dragon II: The Revenge, a la Turtles In Time: Reshelled. I just played the latter and it was such an awesome nostalgia filled ride, in the words [...]

Aion Open Beta, Pre-select and Headstart Details

Mmm, excitement rising? I think so! I have to admit that as we inched closer to Aion’s September 22nd US launch date, I wouldn’t have bet my bottom Aion Kinah on us getting any sort of open beta. It wouldn’t be the first time that a highly anticipated AAA title decided to do away with the [...]
