The DAEDALUS PROJECT

Here is a interesting site that does “research” on MMORPGs about the psychology of mmorgs. They have a wide range of articles and information out there on everything from what it is like to run a guild to the drama we all have to deal with in the game.

Its funny that we use video games to escape reality only to find ourselves right back in the situations we are trying to avoid!

No more green!

Well, it took a while... mostly because I have been lazy, damd lazy! But Bad has no green on him. The day has come when he is only blue or better and soon it will be all the tasty plumb action you can handle!

I am a few days behind in my collection of PVP gear but I'm sure I'll pick that back up soon.

Next up... level the pally!

2008 Objectives

It is the new year and a time for resolutions all around.

Thus, I figured I'd come up with some objectives for my little Warcraft addiction:

1) Get better gear for Bad
2) Level Tarq to 70
3) Level Unavaliable to 70
4) Level a Horde toon to 70
5) Figure out how to do all of that and not get in trouble with my wife!

On a related note, my undead warlock did get his succubus, which did not seem to excite my wife very much. Maybe it was in how I explained it...

ME: "Hey, look at this! I got my own hooker!"
WIFE: "Ok..."


For those of you that love pictures, enjoy!

Dellcraft

Hello fine readers (if you exist :)

Dell has released a new XPS machine built in the style of my gaming machine itself (the M90 from Dell). It is a brute of a laptop (http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/xpsnb_m1730wow?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&~tab=bundlestab) with high powered video, 4gb of memory, a 160gb hard drive and more I can tell you it kicks ass in Warcraft to have a machine that can play all the graphics and not bog down like the toys other people are using!

This machine even beats out my M90 which has basically the same equipment in it (although no "PHYSICS" card and no dual video) but the M90 still rocks the game and this machine will be even better.

If your looking for a laptop for Warcraft this might be your machine, but be prepared because the price tag is $4500! At that price you will be working more and playing less... which might be counter productive to spending five grand.

Oh, and one last thing, the machine runs Windows Vista and comes with 4gb of memory standard. Why is this a bad thing? Because Vista, like all the desktop operating systems from Microsoft, cannot directly access 4gb of data and the system will tell you so. Of course having that extra space isn't all bad, people still get excited when you tell them you have 4gb!

Building the perfect beast:

Like druids pallies have so many options, here is the build I am planning to use for my Pally (now level 41). At level 50.

Bad's new build.
Gonad's new build.
