Warcraft - A Quest you have to do

/

No, I don't mean that every player is forced to do this quest by the game.  I mean that you are doing yourself a great injustice if you do not do this quest.  It is given by the following NPC at the Southpoint Gate in Hillsbrad.

This is possibly the funniest quest that I have done in the 6 years that I have been playing World of Warcraft.

And because I do not want to spoil the quest for you, so hints on what it pertains to except it makes fun of stereotypes.

Geeky Gift Giving Ideas

/

Well that cold nip is back in the air and as we head deeper into this winter season, we start thinking about what to get our more geeky friends and family for Christmas.  I know it's before Thanksgiving right now, but it doesn't hurt to think ahead and beat out some of the holiday rush with some gift giving ideas.  There's only 44 more days till Christmas, so it really isn't that far off.d8 Phone Charm from World of Dice

One gift giving recommendation I have are the interesting dice jewelry products found at World of Dice.  I recently got to meet the owners of this business at this past NDK convention.  I found the jewelry to be very well made with a wide range of colors and dice types.  You can get any of the 100 or so colors of Chessex dice in d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, or d20 die types in almost any of the jewelry products listed!  Talk about variety!

I made a purchase for myself of one of their phone charms.  The charm I picked was a scarlet d8, mostly because I like red and I often have characters that rely on the d8 for the majority of rolls.  As you can see by the picture, it's still going on strong nearly three months later.  I'm still very happy with my purchase as the price was very reasonable for the well made product and there is a lot of variation so everyone's can be a little different.  This would make a great stocking stuffer or group buying gift for your gaming table or general geek culture friends!

Today we have Episode 50 of The Gameslave Podcast!  We are recording on location from the Pirate Party, so I apologize for the scurvy puppy in the background of the recording.  He was fending off the king's men while we recorded the episode.  His kill streak is now quite impressive. 

The Gameslave Episode 50

Holy Taco Sauce Batman!!!

As many of you know, the newest Call of Duty: Black Ops was released this past Tuesday, November 9, 2010.  Well, Activision was happy to announce that the popular franchise's latest installment has sold a staggering 5.6 million copies in the United States and the United Kingdom on the first day!  The larger number is that the total revenue generated was $360 million.  This was a solid increase over their last entry, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, which sold a respectable 4.7 million copies and a total revenue of $310 million on its first day.  

I think it's safe to say, baring an unforeseen monumental collapse, the Call of Duty franchise is stronger than ever and FPS fans should expect quality shooters, both single player and multiplayer, for many years to come.

OK, so everyone has seen the Old Spice commercials rights?  If you have not seen any before, I recommend that you watch this video; it is pretty funny.

Now this post will seem more entertaining.  A spoof to teach children about the word on has been created off this advertisement.  Why is this on a site for video games and anime you may ask?  Because it is freaking entertaining.  What other reason do I need?
