Recently I purchased an Xbox 360. I am playing Mass Effect on the Xbox. On the PC I am still playing Eve Online. I am truly excited for the future of Eve Online with Ambulation. With the recent announcements for the new Star Wars MMORPG “The Old Republic” I have cancelled Star Wars Galaxies. Lately the level of communication for SWG reflects the early days of the NGE. And a lot of information has come to the surface from the previous ranks of the old SWG staff that are “off the record” and mostly “gossip” about a possible expansions that was halted. I just can’t see putting any of my free time into SWG any longer or have any respect for the current layout.
On a side note Obscuri Lateris has been closed. The studio is at a halt due to lack of investment and the guild portal is no longer running. I would like to thank everyone who was involved in OL.

Spacetime Studios has announced that they have found a publishing deal and are working on a truly evolutionary project. At the Vertigo we are truly excited to see a Sci Fi based studio to be back in full swing for the MMORPG fans.

What a cool month it has been. The Old Republic was announced. John Smedley from SOE came forward and stated how SWG might have a sunset in the future. Why am I happy about that? Because he tried honesty and that was cool. I am still bummed for my guild in SWG. They really love SWG. Read more…

Growth and maturity. Nearly 4 years ago pre children and when I referred to women as chicks I tried Eve Online. At the time I was not mature enough as an MMO player under the guise of power leveling and lack of in depth knowledge of how to play a true Massive Role Playing Game. In fact I was fresh off the boat of the FPS of the day. Read more…
