I bought the game Collector Edition for the X-BOX  360 Friday and can’t seems to be able to put it down, I’m at 13% completed. My favorite NPCs are so far Alistair and the dog I named Ordo. I came across an easter egg or two while playing there was a character named Edwina and a shipmate named Casavir I don’t know if they are indeed easter eggs but well you know ^___^.  Anyway i’m going back to play the game now.

All good things eventually come to an end, especially vacations. I had one week of it and I think I would have needed another week. It’s not even funny I didn’t get to relax or play my video games or go to the cinema like I planned to do, instead I worked all week around the house to get ready for the winter season, lost the dog twice and had to do the firewood. My week of vacation went by without even me seeing it, now it’s monday and i’m back at work. :(

I need another week off!!!

Radio Drama…er…Podcast Drama!!!

Remember when there used to have Radio Drama Show?  Well ok maybe you don’t quite remember but even before there was TV, Radio Drama Show were popular and when TV was invented it kind of fell into the background. Now with people being able to make their own Radio Show or Podcast, a new old kind of entertainment surfaced the Podcast Drama I’m not sure if it’s that popular but it’s still entertainment. Today I have one that I want to talk about mostly because it’s about one of my favorite fandom; Star Wars.

The first one is actually what made me look for more Podcast Drama,  it’s made by DeaconX  called Heroes of the Old Republic . There are 2 episodes out so far, the  first one kind of a prequel to the series that introduce us to one of the main character, a soldier that went MIA during the sacking of Coruscant. That’s Episode 0: Deception at Coruscant while it was the first of the series it had a few technical problem such as the music being too loud when the actors were speaking and it was a bit hard to understand what was said, but that is my only complaint about it. Overall if DeaconX continue his vision that way, this series is going to be one of the best I ever heard or seen since there is a video version of it.  Episode 1: The Artful Dodger continues the trend of a good podcast drama but this time around the sound quality is better, there is still the problem of the music being louder than the voices but it is less noticable. We are also treated to a few more voice talents in the mix, including GM Dave from the Holocron podcast and few active people of the community. Overall this show gets a 4/5 It’s good but not perfect yet.

Been a while

MMO games for all!

I’ve been playing a few “internet” games lately, the first one was Freerealms made by Sony entertainment of course like the name suggest it’s free, but it follow the micro transaction trend and for around 5.00 USD a month you get access to exclusive jobs and items. It’s not bad for a game gameplay wise kind of remind me of WoW but a bit more toned down or casual.  There is no aggro in this games meaning that you have to attack the enemies for them to attack you. Best thing of all it’s not a ressource hog like some games that requires you to download a client.

Next is Evony a browser stategy game, you start with a village and have to built it up, manage your resources, make alliances, all in a medieval setting. I like this game it has a nice pace to it. It is free also but there is also micro transaction in the game but it by no means ruins the game, it just make your progression a bit slower but each time you finish a quest you have rewards. To me to know that I have worked to get the items is better than to have bought them. If you want a nice strategy game  and free to play this one is for you

The last game is Ether Saga Online a cutsy graphic game based on the Journey to the West book, I haven’t played that one yet because I am only just downloading the game client right now.I t should also be noted that it’s free to play, I don’t know if there is micro transactions present in the game but it wouldn’t surprise me if there was.

These are just the three games i’ve been seeing if you want more simply go to the MMORPG’s website as they have all the info on MMORPG games and then some more. I’ll be sure to tell you what I think of Ether Saga online as soon as I play it.

I’m sorry it came to this point but with my unstable internet and my very limited time because of work. I didn’t even have time to post here either and the only way i can get a stable internet connection is to at the Presse Cafe using my Ipod touch until I can buy myself a laptop.

After being away for so long from FRO and finally resolving the issue of me not being to get on the site: all I needed was firefox 3.0 (go figure). I’ve made a character named Hida Koriko a samurai of the Crab Clan, I haven’t played her yet since she’s new but i’ll play her tonight and see what can come out of her, hopefully she’ll survive the night XD.  FRO is Five rings online a chat game based on Legend of the Five Rings, it’a made by Alderac and it’s a CCG, pen and paper game there is also a board game, a graphic novel and there is also a few novels that has been made.

A new beginning!
