Cynthia finds it creepy. But I happen to love the singing sunflower companion, quite possibly the best companion we see in World of Warcraft to date. It sings random lines, musical notes flying up its head. OK. It is a little bit spooky. That child like voice coming out of nowhere. Randomly, it would sing, [...]

One Month Has Passed Since The Arrival Of Cataclysm …
January 12th, 2011 4 Comments
Last year, our national paper sent in one of our finest journalists – who unfortunately a lapsed World of Warcraft (WoW) gamer – to preview the new expansion: Cataclysm. It is like asking a recently turned vegetarian to critic on a world class steakhouse dish (and in defense of my humble analogy, it was not [...]

4,606 Hours 46 Minutes Of Played Time In The Span Of 6 Years
December 7th, 2010 12 Comments
Say on average, a movie lasts around two hours. I could have watched more than 2,000 movies over six years, in addition to the many I have already watched. Or say if I spend eight to twelve hours reading a page-turner, I could have read around 450 extra books. Instead, I have poured my 4,606 hours [...]

A Merry Christmas to my readers. ¡Feliz Navidad! While we were queuing to enter the AMK Hub car park, out of nowhere, Cynthia asked what do people really mean when they say Merry Christmas to one another. Good question. I wonder how many of us genuinely ponder upon the good news of the birth of a [...]

Let Them Come, For Frostmourne Hungers
December 13th, 2009 No Comments
Let’s keep it real. Who am I – a regular dude who has a full time job with little time to invest in character development and elite raider networking – to dream of defeating the Lich King? I reckon it would be a lot easier for me to get the S$1,288 life size legendary sword Frostmourne [...]

Almost 5 Years – A World Of Warcraft’s 5th Anniversary Inspired Post
November 25th, 2009 13 Comments
Yes, what you see here is a typical screenshot Cynthia and I see when we play an online game together, a massive one that players from different parts of the world gathered online. Looks complicated but it is like driving. After a while, it is second nature. It’s been 5 years since World of Warcraft [...]

“Our party has defeated the waves of undeads, in the city of Stratholme. Aiding Prince Arthas Menethil for his goal to defeat the powerful demon Mal’Ganis, we entered the town hall, greeted by groups of dragons in human form. We hacked our way deep into Stratholme, blood and sweat and fallen bodies of the undeads, [...]

In the World of MMORPG, One Game Rules Them All – World of Warcraft: The Wrath of the Lich King

God knows how many hours some of the avid gamers have queued for the 1pm launch party. It wasn’t so much of a party per se and when I was a few blocks away from my destination, minutes before the gate at SAFRA Town Club opened, a random group of lovely ladies right beside me [...]
