If you've been keeping up with the WoW forums (and no sane person probably does), you're already aware of the following. Also, if you don't play WoW, this wont matter to you either. Skip the next couple of paragraphs.

There has been a lot of hoo-hah going around on the WoW Forums about new playable races. They're saying that in the next expansion, you'll be able to roll a Goblin on Horde or a Worgen on Alliance. Crazy I know. Hear me out.

I had the fortune to be trolling the forums at the time of this announcement. Apparently, someone at MMOgamersomethingorother was in the middle of data-mining the latest Player Test Realm data, and found the following textures. Here's the story.

Anyways, they've found some new Halloween Masks. Good for them. Granted that the worgen masks don't make a whole lot of sense, this does not mean that Goblins and Worgen are the new playable races. This does make some sense however. Here's a thread on the forums that makes a pretty good case for the alliance getting Worgen. In my opinion, people are getting far too excited about this. While Worgen would be cool, something about it doesn't smell right to me. My thought is that the masks are simply a Halloween Event thing. Maybe Worgen/Werewolves are the theme this year? Who knows... Blizzcon is coming up. I'm sure we'll know more about it then. I'll be sure to mention it when I know something for sure.

Moving on...

I dont know if you've heard, but Harmonix and MTV Games are working on a new network that will allow the common user to produce their own Rock Band tracks and sell them on a "song store". They say that this is a great way for fledgling bands to get their name out there. Give em a boost. Honestly, I don't see that happening the way they think. It is, after all, the internet. This really means that every emo fuck with a guitar and a computer will be able to put up their songs about how "my blood turns to ice" and "The strings of my guitar cut deeper than the abyss that is my blackened heart" and so on. This will not end well.

If you can't stand the heat, too fucking bad for you, I guess...

Well, it has finally happened. Hell hath frozen over, pigs are flying all over the damned place and George W. Bush actually managed to finish that beginner level Sudoku puzzle he's been workin' on for 3 years.

I'm talking, of course, about this.

I knew it would happen eventually. Just not this soon. It's all over folks. Fortunately, I came prepared.

Falling asleep while they are dropping the bombs...

Hey folks. I was gonna write a review for inFamous, but I can't seem to piece it together. So I'm just going to say the following: "inFamous is a good game. If you have a PS3, go get yourself a copy. If you don't have a PS3, you're missing out."

There. Reviewed.

And now for a rant.

Been playing Team Fortress 2 a lot lately and I've noticed a certain plague that is spreading more rapidly than can apparently be contained. Here's an example:
I'm playing Pyro, I spawn, run to the battle, rush in with no backup, by myself, and die before I do any good. I respawn, find the battle, run in and die again without being any help. I then say to my team "C'mon you idiots! Why do you all suck so bad? We should be winning!!!"
Rinse and repeat.

Turns out they have renamed the game. It's acutally Remus Fortress 2. When when Kole plays? Well, its Kole Fortress 2. And my girlfriend? (gamertag Athena) Athena Fortress 2. Of course, sometimes Kole and I work together, then it becomes Remus and Kole Fortress 2. But once you add more people to the mix, the name gets a little long.

The game is called "Team Fortress 2" for a reason. You need to play as a team.

Anyone who knows me knows I like to play Sniper. Snipers, however, cannot function alone. Far too easy for someone to sneak up on us. If we spend the whole damn game trying to cover our own ass, we are no where near as useful as we would be if our team mates would cover our asses.

I don't want a body guard. I just want my team to WORK TOGETHER.

Every game I go into lately, this is the case, and no one seems to care. This game used to be great, but somehow, the game has gone from a great team effort to "I'm Rambo!" "No! I'm Rambo!" "Nuh-uh! I'm actually Rambo!"

Please for the love of all the Gods and Goddesses, both benevolent and mal, PLAY THE FUCKING GAME WITH YOUR TEAM. That's why it's named as such.

And that's my rant for today.

Break apart and divide.

Ok so I've been bad about updates lately... And yeah, it's my fault. Lot going on lately. We're offering a new service: the BEST TF2 servers you'll find anywhere. More on that later.

Also, I've been playing Infamous. I'll throw up a review later.

Just wanted to do some kind of update. For the sake of updating.

They paved paradise and put up a parking lot...
