Winner Gamingface.com is now in the WoW Cataclysm Beta

Thanks to this photo I now have a WoW Cataclysm beta key. I checked The Instance just as I went to lunch and found this

" Link  Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to patronize The Instance fan page on Facebook.


On that page, I have just created a new photo album called “WoW In Real Life”. Now it’s time for you to get creative. Post one photo to the photos page that fits the description:


“…your WoW things juxtaposed with real-world things, or just real-world things that remind you of WoW.”


It could be a picture of your collector’s edition of WoW on a snow sled. Perhaps your FigurePrint on vacation in the city. Perhaps you have an actual pet pig named Hellboar. We will select one photo at 8PM PDT today. It will be a photo that is funny/weird/beautiful/catchy. You have four hours.


Good luck!!"

So I posted this photo and I got me a Key!

Don't steep on your own Freezing Trap! Jeanos the Hunter (entity guild on Nagrand)

MMO-Champion Cursed


Boubouille broke the news that MMO-Champion has fallen to the dark side and sold there sole to Curse.. I have seen lots of great sites get chewed up over the years by bigger sights and although it might be a win/win for MMO champ and Curse it might be loss to the loyal readers of MMO-Champion. I do hope Curse are smart and leave MMO-Champ the way it is, I would hate to see all the crap add that plague Curse end up all over one of the best WoW sites in the net!



Press Release
San Francisco, CA – July 19, 2010 – Curse, Inc. announced today the purchase of the #1 World of Warcraft news site, MMO-Champion.com. The site was bought from Major League Gaming for an undisclosed amount.

MMO-Champion is a natural fit for Curse which already possesses the largest repository of add-ons available for MMO (Massively Multiplayer Online) games such as World of Warcraft, Warhammer Online and Runes of Magic as well as extremely popular forums for Runescape, Aion and Final Fantasy XIV. The World of Warcraft news site attracts 7 million unique visitors and more than 80 million page views per month (Google Analytics WW, June 2010). The combination makes Curse the #1 MMO destination online.

“The acquisition of MMO-Champion markedly sets Curse apart from the competition,” said Hubert Thieblot, CEO and Founder. “Not only does the addition solidify Curse as the largest MMO destination on the web, but it plays a central role in delivering a complete Curse MMO solution. Curse is now the ultimate resource for MMO news, forums, databases, and add-ons.”

Gamers and advertisers alike will benefit greatly from MMO-Champion’s purchase by Curse. In the next few months, visitors can expect an updated page design and improved user experience. To insure the site’s strong content offering will not be compromised, Fabien Bonte, the site’s founder and administrator, will be joining the Curse staff as a full-time employee. Advertisers can take advantage of Curse’s extended reach into the core MMO market, making MMO gamers easier to connect with than ever.

SWTOR Its all about the Music! Video.

A big part of any game is the music, and the music is one of the things I miss most about Star wars Galaxies. Just listning to John Williams music takes me to another world! In SWTOR we will be getting 5 and 1/2 hours of new Star Wars music! OMG for me just that will be enough to get me to buy this game the day it comes out!

The emotional experience of Star Wars™ comes to life in new music created exclusively for The Old Republic™. From soft melodies that ring in the forest of Alderaan to the magnificent booming of a battle scene on Ord Mantell, a talented team of composers, musicians and developers came together to create a magical score for the game.

Watch Developer Dispatch: Music of The Old Republic to see what goes into weaving the familiar Star Wars riffs with a new original score. And learn how music impacts the thrilling moments in video games as well as movies.

The Old Republic is going to kick ass! Group play video

Seeing videos like this enforces my conferences in BioWare The old Republic is going to kick ass!

During E3 we gave live demos of multiplayer game play in The Old Republic for the press. Now we want to share the demo with the community! This demo shows how a diverse group of players use their abilities to complement one another in battle.

Commander Narlock readies his troops for an Imperial assault. As he does, all four Republic classes; a Jedi Consular, Jedi Knight, Smuggler, and Trooper join together to assist in fighting off the attack. Watch as each player does his or her part to take on the enemies, and beat the Imperial Troopers and Imperial Breach Droids.

Go out with grace please..


As a GM I have had to gkick lots of people over the years and I also have had people leave because of the ways we did things in the guild. Let’s not bull crap my guild is not the greatest in the world and it’s not for everyone I’m not the best GM in the world and I have a life outside of the game, So I understand if the guild I run is not for everyone. There is 2 ways you can leave a guild that’s get kicked or gquit, but no matter what it is you need to do it with grace. If you have someone leave your guild because it was not working for them of wish them well and move on if the guild you was in removes you because you was not up to scratch? Thank them for having you ask them what you could have done to make it better! Whatever you do, DO NOT DO THIS! VVV

Warning bad language in this Video!



And you know what I think it might be a chick!

I feel the need the need of driving something!




I got the driving game itch and I found someone selling the Logitech MOMO wheel and pedals. I was thinking about the g27 but at $400+ I just could not justify it. With the Momo at ¼ the price of the g27 and all the crazy prices on steam for racing games I’m in for some fun time! Looks like the Man room is getting a cool gaming upgrade!

SWTOR Hope Cinematic Trailer

Here's the newest cinematic trailer you have all been waiting for...

In the years before the signing of the Treaty of Coruscant, the Sith Empire sought to crush the Republic's morale by destroying Alderaan. See one of the pivotal battles of this conflict in our second cinematic trailer: Hope.

The Battle of Alderaan. The Republic's gravest hour. Recently promoted to Darth, Malgus launches the first of many surprise attacks that would become his trademark during the Great War, perfectly timing the assault with a feint that pulls the Republic fleet light-years away.

Thousands of assault droids and hundreds of Sith set the heart of the Republic ablaze, and Alderaan's few defenders are swept away with ease.

Unknown to Darth Malgus, small groups of Republic Troopers are stationed on Alderaan, some recovering from wounds, others are awaiting orders. As these brave soldiers take to the forests and mountains to fight a guerilla campaign against Malgus's forces, the Republic fleet rushes back to repel the invasion. With time running out and Alderaan's capitol threatened, it falls to Havoc Squad, the elite Republic Special Forces unit, to coordinate one last desperate stand against Malgus' vastly superior numbers.

Here's the first cinematic trailer in HD released at E3 2009 for those that have not yet seen it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=494v0LLIi0k
