Healer at Heart I just can't get enough of that healing power.

WoW: A return.

For a while I had been debating whether or not to resubscribe to World of Warcraft.  All this information about Cataclysm has peaked my interest.  Then some of the Multiplayers were talking about resubbing as well so I decided to join them.

I'm actually enjoying myself.  It's also nice playing with someone who is new to WoW.  Makes all those fun things I did when I first started out seem almost new again.  Excitement is contagious.

Myself and the newbie!

I've started to gobble up information about Cataclysm and I find myself becoming more and more excited about the new expansion.  BigRedKitty for all my Hunter (and more) videos and information, and I popped in to a live stream that Seraphina/Massively had going on yesterday.

So it seems I've found my MMO to play until something else (ex: Guild Wars 2) comes out.  It may not be new, but as long as I'm having fun that's all that matters.

Note: RealID comes in handy when you're not playing on the same server as some of your friends.

Played Lately.

Blur: This is an excellent game!  I haven't had so much fun with a racing type game since Burnout 3: Takedown.

DJ Hero: Fun game but I'm terrible at it.  I'll stick to Guitar Hero.

Guitar Hero 3: I hadn't played this game in awhile and I'm one song short of getting 5 stars on medium difficulty so I had to start practicing again.  Though instead of doing that I've been trying to play on hard.  It's ... well, hard.

Side note: I've lent my Nintendo DS out to a friend for a few months and now I'm really starting to have an itch to play it.  It seems I go through phases with that thing.  Oh well, I'll have it back in a week or so.

Played Lately.

Just to keep those of you who read this interested, or at least informed ... here's another post of what I've been playing lately.

Plants vs. Zombies: A fantastic game. I've played through the adventure mode twice and have gotten all but two acheivements. So close!

Sims 3: Every now and again I become addicted to this game. This is one of those times. I still need to pick up the 3 or so expansions that have come out. Most likely though, I won't.

Elemental: It's still in beta right now (and I hope I'm not breaking a NDA right now) but I think I'll be picking this up when it releases.

Side note: Smartphones are awesome. I posted this whole thing from my MyTouch Slider!

Played Lately

I haven't had the motivation to post lately since I'm still bouncing around MMO's and other games but here's what I have been playing.

Darwinia: I bought this game ages ago but never got very far in it and I never completed it.

Guild Wars: I've now got 2 (almost 3) level 20's and am looking forward to moving on to the Eye of the North content.  I'm hoping I can complete everything by the time GW2 comes out.

Eufloria: Beating the game actually unlocks Dark Matter Mode which it the same 25 levels just slightly harder and with a different look.  I only have the last level left in Dark Matter Mode and then I have to complete the 6(?) bonus levels.

That's what I've been playing!

Allods Online: 1.0.04.3 Patch Notes

A new patch for Allods Online!

Some of the key things I'm looking forward to are:

  • Players can now split items that are in stacks. “Shift+drag” will remove one item from a stack, “Ctrl+drag” will remove half the items from a stack, and “Alt+drag” will open a window that will allow players to remove a specified number of items from a stack - Thank you!
  • Added the ability to respond to whispers. The default hotkey is “BACKSPACE” - Major addition!
  • Players can now choose which quests and quest objectives to display in the Quest Tracker - Yes!
  • Fixed a bug where the spells a player cast on themselves would refresh the duration of their Flag of War

Things I'm not so excited about:

  • Players can no longer avoid the Fear of Death effect by being resurrected by other players

I've only listed the things I've encountered or wanted as I'm only level 26.  There's much much more I'm sure people appreciate.

Click here for the whole list of fixes and additions.  Beware ... it's a long list.

Unfortunately, there's no ETA on when this patch will go live.

On a side note - this is the longest Open Beta I've ever seen.
