In this new expansion a new continent called Pandaria is going to be introduced.  This is supposedly were Pandaren live.  Pandaren’s are a like a cross between a panda bear and humans.  With Pandaren’s becoming the new playable race they come with a new class called Monk.  Lastly Pandaren’s are neutral but at certain point they will have to pick between horde or alliance.

The new class Monk will be able to take on the role of Tank, Damage, and Healing.  It is said that a Brewmaster Monk will be able to absorb damage which will allow the monk to full fill the tank role.  A healing Monk can use ancient healing powers and medicine to heal there allies.

Blizzard is introducing a Pet Battle System.  This will allow you to collect pets in different seasons, times, and weather conditions.  You will be able to level up your pet battle with them and teach the unique abilities.  Pets will have random states which will allow them to be better for tanking, damage, or CCing.  I do have to say it is starting to seem a bit like pokemon.  But anyway.

Please leave me any comments of what you think about of the new expansion.

1. Apprentice now is considered the novice.
2. Squire now is considered intermediate.
3. Now there are two new classes that are locked Barbarian and Series EV.

The game works well on the PC with the Xbox controller.  The only thing I have gotten is some tearing of the video when playing.  I also got the chance to play online using steam.  It was not bad at all.  I was able to do a private match.

The game runs on the concept of RPG and tower defense.  The game can also get addicting since it is very fun and simple.

As a NOTE for those who are currently playing and are new:  Since this happened to me an hour after the game came on for P.C.  I went online and did a Public match.  Then a few minutes later I got kicked because I am no one’s friend who was in the group.  For those who only want to play with friends.  That is why they have private match.

Ralph Baer is the first person to record a video game.  This recorded at the bottom was taken in 1969 features a game he made called Ping-Pong.

The next person I would like to mention is Martin Leung (Solo Pianist).  Martin is a extremely talented young man.  Martin is able to play Super Mario bros. blindfolded.  Martin is the greatest and I would love to see his performance again and again.

Tommy Tallarico and Jack Wall brought all of this together.  Their imagination and enthusiasm for games made this the best event ever.  I will definitely recommend a friend to go.  And I definitely want to go again.

Hello everyone please take the time to rate and comment on this blog.

So Bizzard is reworking the encounter with Onyxia. This will be released in patch 3.2.2 just in time for World of Warcraft’s fifth anniversary. Onyxia will have an updated loot table for the current game content. So far I have not heard anything about what loot will drop besides the flying mount the will be modeled after Onxyia. The mount will have an increased speed of 310%. Also the encounter will be updated to meet the current raiding style. Well this is a quick update from Kane take care.

The Goblin

This panel began by taking a close look at the two new playable races being introduced for World of Warcraft: Cataclysm. The goblin race, available to the Horde, will be able to choose from all classes except paladin and druid. Goblins also have some very interesting racial abilities, including a rocket belt that allows players to activate one of two rocket abilities every two minutes.

The first ability enables the player to jump up to 20 yards, while the other shoots rockets at an enemy player within 30 yards. Additionally, every 30 minutes the goblin can summon a pack hobgoblin, which will act as a personal servant granting bank access.

Goblins also gain a bonus to their alchemy skill, and should a player decide to become an alchemist there will be an increased benefit from drinking health and mana potions.

Additional passive goblin racials include a permanent 1% increase to attack and casting speed, and because of their knack for mercantile affairs, goblins will always receive the best possible gold discount regardless of reputation.

The Worgen

The worgen, our new Alliance race — has both a true form and a human form. The true form is purely cosmetic, and provides no combat bonus. A player may remain in either form when out of combat, but are automatically placed in their true form upon entering combat.

Worgens have a racial ability called Darkflight, which allows the worgen to temporarily increase their movement speed by 70%, and can be used every three minutes. This activated ability, like entering combat, will also force the worgen into its true form. Other worgen racials include a passive 1% increase to all damage, reduced duration from the effects of curses and disease, and a bonus to skinning, as well as the ability to skin faster. Worgen will have access to all classes except paladin and shaman.

Well the title says it all.  Cataclysm is the next expansion in World of Warcraft.  So this expansion would make it number three.  For those of you not follow Blizzcon this will be huge.  Well actually you might not believe it.  All of Azeroth will be changed.   Old zones you have been in will be unrecognizable.  But before that two new races are being released.  One is called Worgen which is a werewolf race that once use to be human.  Then you have the Goblins.  This is going to be interesting.  The level cap is being increased to 85.  Also there will be new race class combinations.  After the expansion goes live players will be able to fly in Azeroth.  Also there will be several changes to stats and some new systems are implemented for guilds and leveling.  I will be posting up some more detailed information the blizzard has released.

I am proud to say that in a few days I will have download linkes setup for Ubuntu, Linux mint, and backtrack.  BDD is like i said before an opensource project to make people more aware of linux and some of it’s basic applications.  At the same time be able to give reviews also on Windows base applications and hardware.  Please if you have any suggestions leave a comment I would be more then happy to hear from you.
