Internet Rant: Borderlands

Posted 11/13/09 at 1:00 PM by LodeRunner
I, like many other people, played a lot of Diablo II. The vast hours spent scanning piles of drops for that socketable claw with just the right +skills for the whirlwind Assassin, and the endless piles of exploding cows on my Necromancers are recalled with fondness. Good times. World of Warcraft eventually came out and slaked my thirst for loot for several years. I've also played my fair share of multiplayer shooters, from UT to TF2. Lastly, Road Warrior is one of my favorite movies. Say what...

Multi Purpose blog post time.

Me and the girlfriend went and picked up Storm2's on Friday last week, since I decided my Razr was nearing the end of it's awesomeness, and she decided she wanted a smartphone, and one that didn't have a crack in the screen that looked like a very large hat.

We jumped through all of the hoops and walked out with 2 very new, very slick Storm2's.

My Life in Two Pages

Posted 10/30/09 at 1:24 AM by DeeNogger
On September 10th I turned 24 years of age. Twenty-four years and nine months before that, my parents had sex and I was conceived. I spent the first part of my life adjusting to the world around me and biting my older brother. I evolved, with time, to learn how to crawl, walk, talk, make doody in the toilet, and cope with my emotions. I learned that crying when I dont get what I want is an inappropriate response. I learned that some things in life will always be closed to me and some things in life...

I recently learned a bit more about the animation system from Blizzard that is imo way to underused by most addon authors.

Maybe it's just because the have no clue that it exists or maybe they are not capable of doing (which I doubt). I think its laziness. In my opinion the reward of getting into it will be worth it.

I'm using the new animation system from Blizzard at the minimap and for the orbs. You can create really cool stuff without major texture spam. Some basic...

Meet the Warlocks: a tale of three talent trees.

Those that raided endgame content during Burning Crusade may have noticed that any asshole off the street could apparently tear the roof off any dungeon from Karazhan to Black Temple by leaning on a single button that read "Shadow Bolt".

In those days of Demonic Sacrifice the majority of the Warlock player base was hip to the fact that the best option for tightly controlled DPS once you had sufficient gear to be hit-capped was 0/21/40 with a sacrificed Succubus. Many a...
