Today, I’d like to talk to you about Army of Two: The Devil’s Cartel, the third entry in the Army of Two franchise. Jon and I both enjoyed Army of Two and Army of Two: The 40th Day. We enjoyed it so much that I composed an ode to Army of Two for AoT 2′s [...]

Busy playing PlanetSide 2/Holiday Hiatus
Jon and I are both busy playing PlanetSide 2, which launched recently. It is free to play. If you haven’t tried it, why haven’t you? If you are curious about starting, but want some intel, check out this reddit filled with tips and tricks. Also, Snowulf is taking a hiatus for the holidays. See you [...]
PlanetSide 2 launched today!
Today marks the release of PlanetSide 2. But before you start installing (the free 2 play) PlanetSide 2, you (apparently) need to uninstall the beta. Jon and I were both surprised by this, but according to @planetside2, it is necessary.
Planetside 2 and Alpha Squad
As we mentioned previously, Jon and I are both in the Beta for Planetside 2. This should come as no surprise, but we are still enjoying it, that is when we have time to play it.
Guild Wars 2′s First Holiday Event
Jon and I have been playing Guild Wars 2 for quite awhile. He’s a Human Ranger, while I’m an Asuran Elementalist. We are both enjoying the game (especially the level scaling so that we can party together successfully, even when we are a few levels apart) and looking forward to its recently announced first major [...]
Planetside 2 is out of NDA!
In what has become the typical way for getting news, John Smedley, the President of Sony Online Entertainment (SOE), tweeted that the NDA for Planetside 2 has been lifted. It’s a smart move since attempting to be secretive with thousands of testers in a semi-open beta never really works. Previously I’d mentioned I has been [...]
Guild Wars 2 is out, and it is good
This last week has been slightly problematic. Not only did we see the launch of Guild Wars 2, Planetside 2 hit beta and Counter Strike: Global Offensive dropped. It’s been a very busy week indeed. I haven’t spent much time in CS:GO and PS2 is still under NDA, so I wanted to spend a few [...]
Review: Diablo 3
As I previously mentioned, I acquired Diablo 3. After beating Normal mode with my Wizard, I decided to write up a review. Spoilers are not an issue as I’ve limited this to game play/functionality only. First up: the good!
A (p)review of the Guild Wars 2 beta
Guild Wars 2 had an open beta this past weekend and I received an invite since I had pre-ordered the game (back in August of 2009, for the record). It was very clearly labeled as an open Beta, “Feel free to talk about it with your friends,” noted the load screen. Sure, it’s just NCSoft [...]
Diablo 3 Release Day!
Diablo 3 was released today, or more accurately at midnight. The servers promptly crashed (which these days seems to be a badge of success), but were brought back online fairly quickly. If you don’t yet have Diablo 3, you can still order it through Amazon, or (assuming you have a decent internet connection) just go [...]
