Anyone here ever played Dungeons & Dragons Online?
I'm at a point where I am playing EvE Online and want to keep subscribed so I can increase my skills, but dont always want to play it. Then I have BFBC2 to play which is new and will hold my attention for some long time yet, but is virtually a drop in and out type game, so I figured I have room for another MMO in my schedule. Obviously I don't want to pay for it, so I looked about and narrowed my list down to three possibles:


After a month of playing the beta version while waiting for the full release, the full game arrived from play.com on Friday. Pretty good going as I had been advised by email on Wednesday afternoon that it had been despatched and that delivery was anticipated to be 3 – 5 days.

Anyone even remotely interested in EvE should listen to Episode 90 of the Van Hemlock Podcast

If you want to download it and listen later / on your mobile device then right click the "direct mp3 download" link and choose "save as".
Apart from an extremely interesting topic about pvp training, they also intersect it with some audio sketches from TV. A couple of classics must be listened to on pain of death from me!!!

Never played the game myself, however its been reported that since 17th November 2009, when Left 4 Dead 2 was released, 28,981,249,043 zombies have been dismembered, blown apart, sawn in two (and possibly three and four), crowbard, set on fire and whatever other unusual means of dealing death are available to gamers everywhere. And thats without counting the prequel as well as the other zombie games out there.
Valve has kindly put it all into perspective for us:
[i]Approximately 3855.5 zombies were being killed per second.

I'd probably pay to watch this. When Richard Garythingy went up into space, he had a film crew (of course) follow him through the training and whole thing. This is the preview of the film which is going to be released.

Battlefield Bad Company was released by E.A for the console market only in 2008, however Battlefield Bad Company 2 is coming out at the beginning of March 2010 for both consoles and PC systems.
This weekend I have been playing the start of the month long PC Beta. I was hoping that I could get some screen shots to enhance my mini review however it seems the facility hasn't been enabled. Either that or I pressed every button on my keyboard except the right one! I'll have to make do with some stock pics.

For a long time I used a Logitech MX mouse and it was brilliant. The shape and feel was in my mind second to none, but then just before x-mas it threw a wobbly and one of the microswitches inside broke. I kept it in case I had the time to replace the switch, but swapped over to my sons old mouse I bought him a few years ago; a Razor.

After a stint with Aion late in 2009 - to which Im still subscribed because I cant remember my account password to cancel it - I played COD4MW2 throughout the Christmas break, then moved back to playing EVE Online. I've joined a new Corporation who are quite large and part of a major Alliance. They also have friendly relations with some major movers in the game so security is pretty good and theres loads of things going on. The Corp leader also shares the same sense of humour as I do and overall I'm enjoying EVE quite a lot. How long this will last is unknown as I tend to get bored easy.

Someone at work just e-mailed me this. I found it really funny so wanted to share.
