That title got your attention, didn’t it? It’s okay, I won’t judge you. Over the past few days I’ve been gaming fairly hardcore. Besides Mass Effect 2, I’ve logged numerous hours into League of Legends and Global Agenda. While both of these games are fun, I find myself becoming easily frustrated when I lose, which [...]

Haven’t done one of these in a while, and I noticed that as I went through my reader’s backlog of posts, I keep seeing the same blogs over and over. I love what I’ve got on there, but I think it’s time to expand a bit. So, does anyone have any blogs that you don’t [...]

Back by popular demand (okay, just Dean), it’s another episode of GAT! Where I wax intellectual about how I play Global Agenda. Last time, I dropped some mad knowledge of pretty standard stuff I do which can be applied to pretty much any class, thus making the title of the last article pretty pointless. But [...]

Do you ever people watch? You know, going to the mall and while you are taking a seat while your kids drown themselves in the fountain collecting money for daddy so he can play at the arcade, you take notice of others actions? From the outset, that seems kindof creepy, I know. Maybe it’s because [...]

This is the point where I would usually do a half-assed review. I have put in some time into Mass Effect 2, and definitely have my gut reaction to the game. I am roughly 15 hours in, but I have to go away from my keyboard a lot, so I am not sure [...]
Slurms’ Pondering of the day: Will the next Blizzard MMO be sci-fi?

It seems that for the next year or so, the MMO landscape will be getting a futuristic facelift. Game developers are looking beyond the tried and true fantasy setting and going all science fiction on us. We’ve got Global Agenda, Star Trek Online opening their doors very soon. We just got Fallen Earth last year, [...]

Any day now, life will return to normal operations. At least I hope. This past weekend was my kids’ birthday party (a two-fer construction/princess extravaganza for my now 2 year old son and 4 year old daughter), so the past week or so has been nothing but clean, clean, clean. Things are getting very busy [...]

Excellent interview. I would almost swear you all knew what you were doing.
September 30, 2009 - 9:29 pm
haha, silly Tony…knew what we were doing…you’re a riot!

I wish more CEOs were like Brad. He’s just really down to earth and honest, qualities that I think Stardock has in spades.
October 1, 2009 - 4:12 pm
Brad sounds like a really cool guy. I want to buy one of their games for that reason alone.
