The crew of the Enterprise is tired. So tired in fact that Captain Kirk is asking for backrubs from his first officer and becomes embarrassed when one of his hot yeomen step in instead.
2012 is upon us in all its glory via another sparkly ball that drops in Times Square, Manhattan, NY. It’s rather fitting that the city that has a reputation of having a giant attitude problem invented the world’s slowest T-bag.
Just dropping a quick line wishing everyone a Happy New Year.
Think you know your games of video? Below are fifty quotes found in various video games…see if you can name what game they were featured in. No googling or cheating. If you feel inclined, share how many you got correct in the comments below or in the post with the answers found here:
Behind the Sword of Truth lies the Seeker, a person destined to kill the evil Darken Rahl. In this television series based on “The Sword of Truth” fantasy novels by Terry Goodkind, Richard Cypher discovers that he is destined for greater things whether he likes it or not. Aiding him in his quest is a beautiful “Confessor” named Kahlan Amnell who has the power to make others do her bidding with a simple touch and a “Wizard of the First Order”, Zeddicus Zu’l Zorander.
Everyone has heard of SimCity right? The game where you spend hours building vast empires using residential, commercial, and industrial zones coupled with schools, hospitals, and stadiums only to narcissistically watch your sims flee in terror from the Godzilla disaster you unleash when you’re ready to start fresh with a new map?
Wii Fishing Resort has been out for over a month now and there doesn’t seem to be many guides out there helping us in our fishing travels. Below is a short list of general strategies I’ve found helpful in helping me unlock most of the content.
It’s that time of year again. A time for people to go out en masse and trample each other to death as they rush into their local Wal-Mart looking for that last minute gift for their kids. A time for people to stress over spending money they don’t have to satisfy the family tradition of exchanging gifts with people they don’t even talk to that often. A time for that unlucky person to spend two hours washing dishes after cooking all day to host the family dinner. Yes, friends…the end of another year is upon us. Joy to the flippin’ World.
Orcs. They’re mean. They’re green. They’re big. They’re ripped. They’re the other white meat. They’ve got an attitude. Obviously, they must die.
A long time ago in a galaxy far, fa…well you get the idea. Star Wars: The Old Republic is the latest MMORPG by LucasArts, BioWare, and EA and is set to be released December 20th, though those who pre-order are able to get into the game early.
Being a Vulcan is a lot of work. They are expected to stay cool under pressure, calculate pi to three hundred places, and put up with William Shatner’s over-exaggerated acting skills.
Do you remember when you were a little kid? Chances are you had a video game system in your house that played those blocky games you bought at the store. Most people, at one point or another, have navigated Mario through the Mushroom Kingdom, making him jump to hit blocks and toss fireballs at approaching Goombas. Those games were linear in that what you paid for is what you got. There was no connecting your Nintendo Entertainment System or Atari 2600 to the internet to download games or update ones you had purchased. What you purchased, no matter how crappy the game was, was what you were stuck with.
I wanted to give a quick nod to an MMO that ceased being last night, 12/15/11. I remember playing Star Wars Galaxies shortly after the Jump to Lightspeed expansion hit in 2004. It was also the first MMORPG I had ever played.
There’s talk of a possible nationwide ban on the use of cell phones and other electronic devices while driving. This would also include phones that sport the “hands-free” feature. I won’t bother boring everyone with detailed information about who is recommending what but I at least wanted to share my thoughts on the subject.
