Ok, this is another Universal monster movie, but an excellent one! The money spent on this production was pretty hefty. Claude Rains, Ralph Bellamy, Lon Chaney Jr. and others. Wow! Poor Lon Chaney Jr. loves a girl but gets attacked by a wolf. Poor guy, he ends up having some really sleepless ni

I have had real bad cell service using my iPhone with the $100.00 iPhone bluetooth. In fact I had 3 exchanges at the MAC store with no measurable increase in quality of service. The Plantronics Discovery 925 Bluetooth Earpiece worked right out of the box. Some clients think I am at my desk on a la

I've been wanting to play my region 2 dvds on a dvd player seamlessly. I got this item because it's cheap and I didn't need bells and whistle. It does a good job playing dvds. The dvd tray responds a little slow and the remote just has the basics except an eject disc button.

Outland Outstanding
5/5/2008
I started playing WoW in November of 2007 so this review is as much about WoW as it is about the Burning Crusade expansion. Wow and BC are sophisticated MMORGs in that the story development and plot lines are well constructed and thought out. Playing the game and leveling can be a bit of a grind now and then, but there are plenty of in-game activities from battlegrounds to seasonal quests to arena PvP events that make the game fun month to month, week to week, and even day to day no mater what. The environments are beautifully rendered with a variety of complex terrains and texture mapping.

Stick up the butt!
4/29/2008
Before I get into the meat of this review let me explain the title. Early on, after getting the game me and my brother began playing the game as Draeni. We were excited about the new race mainly because they spoke with a Russian accent. After a half hour or so of playing our blue skinned giants my bro commented that they ran like they had a stick up their butt. I can only assume that means they run with a very erect carriage, in other words very stiff. We stopped playing the Draeni and have not picked them up since.

The main addition in this game is the introduction of the outland and the raising of the level cap to level 70. The outland is a pretty interesting place with different types of terrain. Marshes, plains, desolate burning steepes like plateaus and forests abound. The only thing missing is a snowy realm. (Though I'm sure if you want snow you'll get plenty in the next expansion) With the new levels come an increase in gear. The green or common items(technically uncommon if you read the manual) are often better than the epic gear you got before the expansion. Not the high end stuff but the more easy to get epics(not that any epics are easy to get but some are easier.) Even though the gear is good you may have reservations about dropping your hard earned epics for random greens that look like crap. I have a dwarf warrior that I started early on and got to 60. He is still at 60 because I don't feel like replacing his pvp gear so I rolled an orc warlock for the expansion and now he is 70 and saddled with his own set of 70 pvp epics ('welfare epics' is a slang term for these reasonably easy to obtain items) will I roll another new character for the next expansion? Maybe but who knows?

The second addition is the two new races. As I eluded to earlier these are the Draeni and the blood elves. The Draeni, aside from their uncomfortable looking movement, seem the more hastily slapped together of the two races. They have a weird backstory involving spaceships and demonic corruption. The blood elves, on the other hand, are the more well known race. They were an integral part of the early warcraft games (as the high elves) so they are more familiar (if generic) to gamers. I personally think that the inclusion of the blood elves has shifted the balance of power towards the horde side. When I journey in the wild I seem to see a lot more horde about but that's just my opinion. Things obviously vary from server to server but no one can deny that the inclusion of the blood elves has boosted the horde population. The people like those pretty, pretty elves. The butt ugly horde have a new poster boy.

With the new world to explore there are also some new dungeons. Though I have not explored the harder more epic dungeons I am aware that there are no longer any 40 man epic dungeons. The cap is set at 25 which is a more realistic crew to assemble. I don't have a whole lot to say about that topic.

Anyway, this game is a great addition to the series. I can't wait for the next expansion. Too bad there aren't any plans for new races. I have a hankering for some ogre action. "Arrgh!Me smash (fill in character race)!

You roll greed, I roll need, you cry like a baby, poor baby :)
4/7/2008
WOW took the Unreal Tournament 1st person shooter type engine and put orcs in it. However, it is still a 32 foot horsefly splattered across the road by a Mac truck going 90mph. A beautiful mess. Where else can you get the most epic of epic weapons, find friends, sell your own stuff you craft, and then have some idiot punch 'NEED' and steal the best loot in the game and ruin months worth of work in a second? Then the jerk can go change is name, so he can do it again. Obviously, my comment on WOW is their looting policy. It is a deep rich game. However, by not allowing buffs to stack anymore (food, alcohol, regional, etc), and forcing people to stay in areas and then forcing them to turn to battlegrounds for gear it has become increasingly more linear. I've heard complaints that they ruined Star Wars Galaxies in a similar way. I've hear that EQ is 'exclusive' in the same way. Unless you are hanging out with your friends, and even then....you'll find out if they are your friends after that super level mega damage once in a life time drop comes up, and they ninja the heck out of it and log off. Happens day after day, instance after instance. Then in town you'll hear, "Poor baby. Get over it," and it'll happen again. :( I won't whine about the usless reputation grind for factions with not yet-built out rewards because I like crafting and just having fun, but looting sucks and should be fixed el pronto. Is 3 years enough?

Complete letdown considering how great the original was. Its become a monotonous gear race.
4/6/2008
I was really excited about this, I even had it pre-ordered. When i first started it up after the long install process I made a blood elf to check out the new Silvermoon area. I actually thought it was quite beautiful, the art design for it reminded me a lot of Fable. I goofed around on my Blood Elf mage until level 12 then went onto my troll priest to start the grind to 70. The leveling process wasn't as painful as i was worried it would be, and actually went by rather quickly. The new environments were pretty cool looking, my favorites being Nagrand and Zangarmarsh. The rest were actually pretty bland. The brief time I spent leveling managed to make me feel like a lone hero again, but that feeling soon went away as I hit 70 and began raiding and saving money for my epic mount. Eye of the storm was a disappointment and the rest of the battlegrounds were overrun with idiots who just spent all day AFK to get honor points. I soon noticed it became extraordinarily easy to get epic pieces of gear. There was no more challenge, in the original if you saw someone with epics you knew they accomplished something, in BC, if you saw someone without epics they either just hit 70 or are completely incompetent at playing their class. The flying mounts were neat but you couldn't even use them in Azeroth. Oh and of course the raid bosses are as boring and robotic as ever, they don't even have the epic feeling the ones from the original had. So here I am, a level 70 troll shadow priest with a netherdrake, full frozen shadoweave and other epics from kara, and my raid group is on High Astromancer Solarion. Its everyone's dream right? Wrong, I was having less fun being on top of the world in BC than I was being in the middle in the original. This is an expansion with nothing but more of the same but without any of the epic feel to it. It doesn't feel special like the original. I have now quit the game because its just become a monotonous gear race.

Just buy it...
4/1/2008
I'm addicted to WOW. I needed The Burning Crusade to get my character to level 70. The Outlands are awesome, the challenges are insane, lots of new cool stuff. Now Im just waiting for Wrath of the Lich King. But warning - you need a fast gaming computer to be able to play. I am in the process of upgrading my computer because I am experiencing lag issues after installing TBC.
