I read an interesting conversation about World of Warcraft “clones” (because I can’t say no to a topic I know will leave me steaming), someone brought up cars, and why no one refers to today’s cars as “Model T clones,” or “Ford clones” because Ford made the first commercially viable automobile. This got me thinking, … Continue reading “My MMO Is Not A Car (Please Stop Comparing Them)”

But, now that I’m back, it’s time for a quick wrapup of what I should have … Continue reading “What The Hell Happened This Week? Catching Up Edition”
Back in April I happily announced that the Interplay Vs Bethesda lawsuit was over, after an investor reported to Joystiq that Bethesda had dropped their suit. Of course, as we discovered in our long and incredibly painful interrogation of investor Frymuchan, Bethesda confirmed that they were not dropping the suit, and planned to continue full … Continue reading “Interplay To Bethesda: No, You’re Absurd!”

So, in the effort of fairness, I … Continue reading “Target/Walmart Pulled Final Fantasy XIV From Shelves”
Those of you who purchased APB before its demise are likely aware that Electronic Arts, as distributor, is offering out free games if you can prove that you once owned the crashed MMO. Over multiple forums, players are reporting getting everything from Bioware bucks (that can be used to buy full games), EA store credit, … Continue reading “Preordered APB?
