Guild Wars: Closer to the stars
Posted on: August 24, 2010
My monk/mesmer has gone through Weh no Su and hit level 20. One of my friends has prophecies and another has factions. So I now will have two max level characters that can come along and help.
Guild Wars: Weh no Su
Posted on: August 23, 2010
My Monk/Memser is now just before the Weh no Su. I have finished the Weh no Su previously on my Warrior so it will be my second time through it.
My monk is level 18 and I am making an effort to get her good amour, weapons and some heroes before she does the trial to become closer to the stars.

With it being busy at the moment I have not had a lot of time to play.
I have managed to get a monk/mesmer in guild wars to level 14. She is in Jaya Bluff and just did the rite of valor.
I was doing more missions on my warrior/monk. I lost Koss and recovered him.
Earth Eternal: Offers to buy
Posted on: August 17, 2010
As you may have heard Earth Eternal ran out of money. They had mentioned that the company was up for sale.
Good news for its players as apparently they have had offers.
Hi everyone,
We received multiple offers for Earth Eternal and our creditors are evaluating them now (it’s their decision which to accept rather than ours). They expect to make a decision on Tuesday as to which to accept.
I would expect the game and forums to stay up, btw, so you guys shouldn’t have to worry about EE just up and disappearing. Good news!

I had not found this a bad game, per say, I just at the time had other games I liked more.
Jade Dynasty: Vengeance
Posted on: August 13, 2010
There is a video for Jade Dynasty Vengeance to see. You can also check out all the news on the expansion page.
The Celan faction is the absolute embodiment of grace and elegance. With superior capability as a support healer as well as various blessing and curse skills the Celan is sure to prove their worth in a variety of situations.
A unique aspect of this particular class is their choice of ornately crafted zithers as their primary weaponry. The haunting melodies that they strum will often prove to be a funeral dirge for their enemies!
So like a cleric-bard.
The Rayan is one of the five offspring, that share the blood of the Gods. Their unbreakable loyalty results in them being a mysterious faction. Their origins are not completely known. A true Rayan will never be boastful or prioritize their needs over the Gods. They lurk in the shadows, always unknown to friend and foe. Their ultimate goal, is to hunt. To achieve their objective they slice the competition with fearsome blows. They will even sacrifice themselves to dominate an enemy. This perseverance is the key to their success.
Fearsome close combat ability
Ability to stealth, which in turn gives them their power
When not stealthed, they become easy targets for the enemy
The Rayan is unique because it has a Meter Bar or Combo bar that is used for high damage skills
Your shadow ability will allow you to call upon numerous shadow warriors, clones of yourself, to aide you in combat and deal awesome damage to your foes. They will even protect you from harm, if you command them to do so!
So like a rogue.
EQ2 Extended:
Posted on: August 13, 2010
From Massively
The closed beta for EverQuest II Extended is considered completely different from the normal subscription-based EverQuest II game. That’s the important bit to get out first. But since this can easily become confusing, I contacted SOE regarding this topic to make sure the correct answer is given. See how much I love you?
August 17th will be the open beta launch date for the EverQuest II Extended service, but the final release date hasn’t been announced yet. I highly recommend making your way through SOE’s own FAQ regarding the new service as well as this membership matrix, which will help you differentiate the content that will be available for the Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum memberships.
Looks like I will need to try to join open beta for this.
Kotick wont even pay his lawyers

Broken toys links to an article where kotick won’t pay his laywers and as a side point sexually harassed someone (or was accused of it, but from the rest of his personality….).
When will everyone learn just not to do business with him? When he enters, exit stage right.
Also raptr is pretty neat. If you just left xfire, import your gaming history and uninstall xfire.
I have been playing two beta’s lately and they both look good. Looks like some fun winter releases are coming our way.

Xfire was bought by new owners today. Most of the team that has built Xfire over the last six years is leaving. We enjoyed working for you for the last 127 releases and wish we could stay to create the next 127. Good bye, good luck, and game on. — The Xfire Team
I’ve uninstalled it for now. The xfire site has gone down. Pity the team was let go.
According to wikipedia its 3d realms that bought the company.
On August 2, 2010, Xfire changed ownership to 3D Realms.
It looks like no one is really sure yet who bought it.
