All the World’s a Stage: You keep me coming back

I’ve never been able to completely walk away from any of my characters. Everyone of my WoW characters are indexed in my heart and soul. I played City of Heroes before WoW, and I recently went back around to Paragon City to check in on those kids. (They’re fine, thanks.) Previous to City of Heroes, I was an Albion in Dark Age of Camelot, and I recently spent some time with a fan-fic (character fic?) of that character. I still have all the character sheets for every tabletop character I’ve ever played.

I bring this back because I spent last night at a LARP. Yes, yes, a vampire LARP. There was just as many Linkin Park lyrics and awkward Livejournal posts as you might imagine. I spent a good hour talking about Edward and Jacob. (I wish I were kidding.) But, I’d been having this urge to revisit the old character, so I figured one evening didn’t hurt.

And it didn’t. It didn’t hurt at all. It was actually a relatively decent time. But it did inspire me to get home and quickly login to WoW so that I could roll around on my favorite roleplay server. It’s admittedly been a little while since I’ve truly gotten my roleplay on, and I dove in last night with a ferocity I’ve not experienced for a while.

I don’t know. No matter how many times I’ve walked away from roleplay for a little while, I always come back around to it. Never been able to shake it.

Totem Talk: Back to basics

Welcome to another article by elemental shaman specialist Matt Sampson, otherwise known as Binkenstein. By day, he’s a geek; by night, he’s also a geek, but with spreadsheets. He’d also like to point out that Time Warp is just another excuse to bring mages vending machines to raids.

Since I’m still the new guy here, I figure that it’s best to start at the beginning, for it’s a very good place to start (and I’m not intentionally putting song lyrics into my posts, it just happens). Given that Cataclysm is still in beta testing, I’m not going to talk about talents, rotations or even the new spells here.

“But Binks,” you say, “how can you have an article about basics if you don’t include any of those topics?” You can, I say, if you talk about the essential basic you have to get right in your playstyle. This is the thing that turns an average-geared player into a fairly competitive one, makes the top-end raiders great, and without which the guy languishing at the bottom of the DPS table will never get to the top no matter how many best-in-slot items he has.

What I’m talking about is skill. This doesn’t just mean the ability to mash buttons faster or harder, or the bonus of having really low latency (trust me, a good ping for me is in the 300ms range), but rather being situationally aware, knowing when to move, how far to move and what to do while moving. It means thinking a few steps ahead so that when the next event occurs, you’re already in position and ready for it.

Some players will never master the basics. Others don’t even have to try because they’re naturals. For the rest of us (and yes, I mean myself as well), it requires a bit of experimentation, some trial and error and most important of all, guides!

Test Drive Creator Pitbull’s Co-Founder Getting the Band Back Together

L.A. Rush


Midway closed Pitbull Studio after officially acquiring and renaming it in 2007; but as the adage goes you can never keep a good dog down. Robert Troughton, the original co-founder of Pitbull, has opened a new studio to revive the name, reports GamesIndustry.biz. The new development team has reportedly already secured a project.

“The North East [U.K.] has a lot of games development talent,” said Troughton. “It was a very sad day when the old studio closed and it’s really been my dream to revive it. The industry has changed a lot since the day we sold the original Pitbull – it was a real shame that Midway’s management never seemed to move fast enough with the trends. We won’t be making the mistakes of the past with the new studio. What happened there has actually strengthened us, I would say, we’ve learnt a lot from the experience of being part of a large publisher.”

Pitbull (a.k.a. Midway Newcastle) was known for its racing titles, including the Test Drive series, L.A. Rush, and Wheelman. It’s probably a safe bet that the new project is another racing game, so it will be interesting to see how Pitbull adapts to changes in the genre that have developed since its absence.
