Diablo III Hidden Level

Posted on:

Diablo III has been out for over two weeks now, & I’m one of the WoW Annual Pass owners playing it. However, unlike a WoW expansion I’m not hitting it hardcore; my main is currently level 38. That’s my choice and I’m taking my time since completing normal mode. Nightmare is definitely a step up and I am curious to play Inferno / level 60. Not to mention there are many more ability specs to unlock. Anyways, I thought I’d record and share the new ‘cow level‘ for Diablo, check it out below: How do you get there? Assemble the Staff of Herding (or find […]

Cubemen | My First Level Gameplay

Posted on:

Liking this game so far!  You can grab this game for around $5 on Steam. Cubemen is a fast paced, action packed, original 3D Tower Defense game that mixes TD with RTS in single player & online multi-­player awesomeness! Get ready for some crazy Cubemen action! It’s the age old struggle between Good vs Bad, Blue vs Red, Little men vs Little men. Use your own little Cubemen to defend your base from other little Cubemen that are trying to run it over. It’s the usual story, but with many very interesting twists.   store.steampowered.com/app/207250/

New Net for 2012

Posted on:

Moved into my new apartment this last weekend (which is only about ~5mile from the old one). BUT with this move I’ve switch Internet service providers! What does this mean? MORE SPEED  My new upload is now a wonderful 3 megabit (or 375 kilobyte) per second. This means that I can now Livestream in glorious 720p HD. So look for some updates on that soon! FYI: Internet companies generally advertise in Bits and not Bytes. Your computer normally displays speeds in Bytes (the smaller number) so to find that number just divide the bit amount by 8. 1 byte = […]

PC Upgrade 2011

Posted on:

Christmas was simple this year, did not have a big family gathering. Simple is not bad though and my PC got some love. I built my current PC back in May (2011) with the base stats of Intel i5 3.2 GHz w/ 8GB DDR3 and my old 64GB SSD & GeForce GTS 250. The Holidays brought about some new additions: Bamboo Capture Pen Tablet Logitech Wireless Gaming Headset G930 OCZ Agility3 120GB SATA III 2.5″ SSD Corsair 8GB DDR3 1600 (2×4) Now my system is max’d at 16GB of RAM with two Solid-State Drives thus my operating system is once again booting at […]

Good to be Green

Posted on:

We’ve just passed the one year anniversary of Cataclysm‘s release, and it’s good to be green! I spotted a Disgusting Oozeling in the Auction House for only 5,000 , so I snatched it up. When you have the pet out, its aura turns you green — even while mount and such. This pet dates back to Classic WoW, so it’s been around forever but it’s great to finally own.

Now with over 11,000 AP

Posted on:

Time for a Warcraft update. Finally went back into ICC 10 to finish off Heroic LichKing that we did not kill at the end of WOTLK due to raid attendance dropping as Cata approached (my guild completed our Meta though). So anyways, I dragged 9 other souls back into ICC last week to do Heroic LK for the Guild Achievement (and to finish player/individual version). We went back this last Friday and completed the Meta for those who needed it that showed up for our H LK kill last week. Total time played as of this post: 316 days *on […]
