Final Fantasy XIV Back On Shelves in WalMart


Back in November, I reported that Target and WalMart had pulled Final Fantasy XIV from store shelves, opting instead to only sell the game on their respective websites. I didn’t want to get into too much speculation at the time, as regular gaming stores (Best Buy, Gamestop, etc) were still stocking the title. Over the … Continue reading “Final Fantasy XIV Back On Shelves in WalMart”

Stargate Resistance To Shut Down This January

Much like how most humorous situations begin with a simple “hey, look what I can do,” the MMO world is no exception to events that begin with high self esteem … Continue reading “Poop Talk: Battlestar Galactica Vs The Old Republic”

Final Fantasy XIV: Not Satisfactory


MMOs are a bit like children in that eventually we have to ask when the babying has to stop and the real growth must begin. At what point do we start saying “no, don’t pull the cat’s tail, what the hell is wrong with you?” instead of “he doesn’t know any better.” No doubt this … Continue reading “Final Fantasy XIV: Not Satisfactory”

Warhammer Online: Buy A Level!


Last month Mythic Entertainment’s own Carrie Gouskos made it quite clear that Warhammer Online is not going free to play…for now. In the interview with Ten Ton Hammer, she talked about the danger of monetizing power in a title that focuses so heavily on player vs player. There was that part at the end of … Continue reading “Warhammer Online: Buy A Level!”
