Paladin for the win

After getting my Alliance warlock up to level 68 in World of Warcraft I slowly started to get an itch that needed scratching. Don’t get me wrong, warlocks are awesome, but gameplay wise they (and many others) can get a bit annoying.
Random dungeons with sucky tanks and healers either just sucking or throwing hissy fits, needing groups to get certain quests done, things like that started to bother me more and more. So I’ve started again, as a Horde paladin, and life is good. I can solo everything, heal myself, tank myself and beat the crap out of everything I encounter while enjoying lots of armor and fiddling around with magic still.
It’s good to be a paladin.

Lady Gaga – Telephone parody

It’s a sad day when the parody makes more sense than the original.

Street Fighter 4, on the iPhone?

The best fighting game series on the best phone ever, but how can this ever play well without a pad?

World of Warcraft trial

Terribly late to the party with a game that was released in what, 2003? But here I am nonetheless, in 2010, trying World of Warcraft. And it’s fun. It’s probably more fun ’cause I’m playing it with Katelynd which makes things a little more social as I can’t really be arsed to talk to people in game.
The graphics are probably nice if only I could turn up the dial, playing it on my Mac Mini is plenty slow already with all the graphical options set to low. On the iMac is looks lovely though.

So… looks like we’ll be upgrading to full accounts this weekend.

(btw, am I the only one who finds great humor in the fact that when you’re dead and you have to walk back to your physical body as a ghost you still have to jump over obstacles like fences instead of being able to walk straight through them?)

Dragonball Z Remastered

Dragonball Z Remastered

It’s fun revisiting this series in its remastered and uncut version at first, getting reacquainted with Goku, Gohan, Piccolo and all the others. There’s a lot more backstory as dozens and dozens of episodes that originally got cut are now back for everyone in the west to enjoy. Unfortunately we’re now in the Frieza battle and it’s still as boring as ever getting dragged out endlessly. I hope the rest gets better and has more story that was missing first time around.

Sherlock Holmes

Sherlock Holmes
“Detective Sherlock Holmes and his stalwart partner Watson engage in a battle of wits and brawn with a nemesis whose plot is a threat to all of England.”
Sounds good.
Looks good too if you check out this trailer. It’s great to see someone finally making a new Sherlock Holmes movie.

JCVD

jean_claude_van_damme

Definitely one to watch, JCVD stars Jean-Claude van Damme as himself in what must be one of the most ironic movies ever as the whole thing is part parody/reflection of his own past as a person as well as his career in the shall we say less high profile movies.
