World Of Warcraft Patch 3.1 enters test phase

The most important patch since the launch of Wrath of the Litch King is almost at the starting line. Some of the announced changes are: tier 8 armor sets, legendary weapons, dual talent specs and the ability of mounts to swim. There will also be a brand new event in two parts: the Argent Tournament with mounted combat and a coliseum battle, bringing with it new rewards and achievements for those hoping to build their Argent Crusade faction.

This post could be the equivalent of “Cocaine, now three times as enjoyable and longer lasting” so we apologize to the reformed addicts.

Warlock diaries: Day 1 – “Requiem for my sorry ass !”

Dear diary, today was a weird day…

I woke up this morning with a strange feeling of happiness. Rushed to the corner coffee shop for my usual “double venti caramel macchiato” thinking to myself :”This is going to be a fine day for selling insurance door-to-door”.

32 houses, 2 macchiatos and a black eye, later : “I hate my life !”

I always thought I was meant for something greater, “Screw this, I’m done for today”. Got myself a coffee and

headed for home.

Hmmm … who would have thought you could die from caffeine poisoning !?

When I woke up, yeah I woke up after I died, everything was different. I was alive but not really, like a zombie from those old horror movies.At first, I really freaked out, but after a while I realized: “This couldn’t get any worse”. As I walked out of the crypt, cause that’s what it looked like, I realized the scenery had changed from the steel and glass buildings I was used to seeing every day, to a creepy forest decorated with spider webs and graves everywhere.

Something started walking towards me …

“Welcome to Tririsfal Glades… “

Blizzard skips this year’s E3

If you planed to play Starcraft 2 or maybe Diablo 3 this year at E3…I have to disappoint you, Blizzard won’t be there, including their proprieties. Probably you can catch them this year at Games Convention or Gamescom in Germany. They probably wont be at E3 because BlizzCon covers the US…so why bother. You can read more on GiantBomb.

Quake tutorial: How to make a video from your demos

Since Quake Live is after the corner the hype got to me, so I started to look for Quake videos, and how I have lots of Quake 3 demos from the old days when I was playing. I started to make my own video. I’m not the best player out there but there are some cool moves in all these demos. I decided to make a small tutorial for all of you who were struck by “the hype” or are just good at quake and finally decided to show the world. Till now all the Quake 3 console commands work in Quake Live too, so you probably can make a Quake Live video using this tutorial but it is mainly designed for Quake 3 Arena. I assume you are familiar with Q 3 console commands and cfg files.

Here are the steps you should follow:

•       first of all make some demos. I usually record all my games, you never know when you’ll do a cool move. To record a demo you have to enter this 2 commands: “g_syncronousClients 1″ and “record demoname”. demoname should be an intuitive unique name. To stop a demo you type “stoprecord”. You should bind these commands

bind F1 “g_syncronousClients 1;record”
bind F2 “stoprecord; g_syncronousClients 0″ Read more
