If you cannot solo it I'm almost certain you and a friend can double team it. Especially if you grab a healer, you'll be able to try the portal achievement to get your frost wyrm. For me the most problematic boss in there was actually the old professor guy and his toxic flesh gollum. Before I...

Oh I want those parameters knocked down as well. I'd love to play a female warrior mogged with a cloth dress bu have big pauldrons, a belt, and gauntlets. Likewise a clothie mage wearing plate gaulntless and firing a bow would be awesome. For me this all feeds back into the notion that Blizzard...

Oh I'd love that! It would be super cool if they were actually a light source, too. How great would it be to capture fireflies to keep on your property instead of having to spam torches all over the place to pacify the land? That's the type of thing I was talking about, right there. In my little...

I would love to see fox and deer running around the forest. V-shaped flocks of birds in the sky would be pleasant, even if they weren't technically mobs. Butterflies that congregate around flowers or bees that build hives in trees are another wish. In general I am a fan of anything that makes...

There's never a competition here. Desktops are cheaper, dissipate heat better, have a much larger after market of parts, and are far easier to service yourself than any laptop will ever hope to be. So long as your needs don't include mobility then the desktop is the right way to go. If you are...

I always try to purchase from the store with the best price. Prices rarely vary by more than five dollars at this point unless you're talking about used hardware. I do consider used equipment, especially if it's for a console I'm buying as a secondary machine for a few exclusives, but of course...

I would argue that it would be best to try to stop shoving yourself into other people's definitions. "Hardcore gamer", as a title, bestows neither honor nor wealth on your name! It's an amorphous term who's definition changes depending on who you're talking to and what their moods are today. The...

Oh I agree in full. Horde definitely got the better treatment, but then their models were kind of worse for the whole earlier part of the game before the upgrades. They sorely needed it. The only thing I really dislike about the new models are the human faces. The male faces, especially, are...

I think it was a necessary evil although I admit it really damaged the social aspect of the game. Back in the old days if you acted like a jerk and got a bad reputation on your server, your expansion was essentially over after questing. No one wanted to put up with that when they're just trying...

I had a lot of fun on the Timeless Isles. I thought the multi tap enemy mechanic was a very long time coming. As a melee player, I can't even tell you how many times I've leapt to attack an enemy, only to have it tagged my some caster or ranged who knew point blank what they were doing. I got...

What I really want is an expac that goes back to old world themes and has our characters become background players in a larger war. I don't feel a need to keep upping the steaks with more and more abstract forms of evil. For me this game was always at its best when the Alliance and the Horde...

Blood elves, right...AM I RITE GUYS!?! But seriously Blizz, get the worgs done. Until then, I controversially really like the Tauren revamp. I get that some people think they aren't as fierce looking, but the Tauren we play as have always been characterized as even keeled and wise. I think...

Yes, I've been dissatisfied with their choices for some time now. I've often argued that they've forgotten the RPG part of MMORPG. There's only ever one story thread in a zone and all of them lead to the theme they've set out for your character this expac. It's confining in a game that used to...

I know there's a pretty solid class-fantasy based counter argument to this, but I really wish Blizz would just knock down the walls and let us mog whatever to whatever. As a warrior main, I would love to be able to run around in leather gear swinging a soup spoon if I wanted. I'd love to mog a...

It's enriching to my life. I used to be a semi-professional musician and an avid outdoorsman. A series of blows to my health have left me unable to participate in either of those activities anymore. I was a gamer from my youth, but it was just a hobby then. Today, I find meaningful freedom in...

I do not enjoy gambling at all. I would rather spend my money on another game, a known quantity, than bet money on the chance of making more if I'm lucky. Winning is almost worse than losing because it's all too easy to get roped into the excitement. So many people blow a lucky break when they...

My biggest complain about the PS3 was that Sony broke mine during an update which so thoroughly ruined the install of the OS that I couldn't even access the safe-mode menus. It effectively bricked my console, forcing me to do all these squirrely things with hard drive enclosures and weird...

I personally wonder if there will be a Playstation 5? I half expect to one of these days hear the major console developers state that the next "console" wont be a piece of hardware, but an in-house game service a-la Steam that runs on a glorified $50 streaming box. Having said that, Sony just...

Yeah but remember how a lot of companies would make the division between the screens of a two player mode horizontally instead of vertically? Maybe it's just me, but I always found that squished, screen atop screen approach to ruin any fun the 2 player mode had to offer. I always preferred the...

Here's where I polarize people: The Remington in Black Ops 2. I know many people consider it a cheater gun, and I totally get why. It's a wrecking machine. If you add the right loadout to extend its range and accuracy, including taking perks that empower your ability to move around the stage...
