As 12/12/12 12:12 hit (though an hour early, as they were going on Norway time) a bombshell hit. The Secret World, inspired no doubt by the success of Guild Wars 2, is going subscription free. Like GW2 you still need to buy the game, but beyond that, you can play without further costs if you so choose. But is it safe? Of course it’s perfectly safe. No one’s entirely sure how it works. I don’t like to contradict […] By Q!! It’s been a while since I made a gaming video, but I suddenly got the urge today. Star Trek Online’s Christmas event is well underway, and Q is welcoming all comers to his Winter Wonderland. Therein, you can if you’re feeling energetic, decide that you will undertake to win a footrace on his icetrack on no less than 25 separate days during the holiday season. If you do, you’ll earn a rather lovely Breen Chel Grett Cruiser. Let’s […] I heard within the whisp’rings of a bee: a city proud and free that strove for good. A Paragon that showed us what could be, Yet now dark void remains where it once stood. In hero sleep, and villainous slumbers, As rogues dream undecided in their turn. Not forgotten in their countless numbers, I’ll miss you, Bee, and one day you’ll return. Edit: Folks keep asking me what this is all about! Briefly, NCSoft shut down the still […] My friends at “It’s a Trap!”, here in Norwich, made a rather jolly steampunk film a couple of years ago, involving steam-powered weaponry, and a terribly menacing Bolt-filled exosuit. Such was the response that they decided to push half a league, half a league, half a league onwards, and have been working on turning the concept into a web series. If this trailer is anything to go by, it should be quite a romp! Episode 1 will be coming […] I wasn’t expecting it quite so soon, but an announcement just turned up in my mailbox. They were discussed at Fanfest, but Krono are already upon us, and with any luck will cause some gnashing of teeth in the illicit-RMT trade. They work pretty much like PLEX in EVE Online, and the peculairly similarly named Chronoscrolls in TERA. Someone with real world money buys the Krono, and then can trade them for ingame money/goods/services to another player, who can then […] It’s been a while since I last posted, but I have been jerked out of complacency by the stunning return of the equine menace known only as Horse-boy. When last we saw him, he was haunting Hardgate Street in Aberdeen, spreading fear and misery in his wake. As I’m sure you’ll remember, we uncovered the terrifying truth about Horse-boy. THAT HE DOES NOT HAVE A FACE. Now, as Hurricane Sandy threatens the eastern coastal regions of the United States, he […] Kelloggs are trialling Froot Loops in the UK at the moment, in special limited edition boxes. I used to eat them, alongside any number of other colourful cereals, when I lived in the US, so I picked up a box. I don’t remember the US ones well enough to be able to compare the taste and crunch, but these ones taste pretty good to me. Froot Loops come to the UK. The UK version only has 3 colours […] |
