Browser Games – Gaming For Casual Players

Lately I haven’t been having much time in my life, as you’ve probably all noticed with my lack of posts this whole year. So much so that I haven’t gotten to really sit down and play a good online game even though I have been searching for a good MMORPG. We played Aion for quite a while, and it sort of filled the gap, but like we feared the game was surely a grindfest(meaning we had to sit and kill mobs repeatedly to reach the level cap). Nowadays I just don’t have time to sit and play for 4-6 hours straight in a day. So what games have I found to fit my need? Browser based MMOGs (Massive Multiplayer Online Games).

Setting Up Ventrilo So Everyone Speaks at the Same Volume (Normalization)

Lately every game that’s come out has some sort of in game voice chat available. Let’s face it, voice chat makes gaming a whole lot easier by not having to type what you want to say all the time. The only real issue with in game voice chat is the fact that you have to be playing the game to use it. So what do we use when we’re not in game? Read more

Aion Online – Live Status Tools – Freaking Awesome

When Warhammer was released, and they had an updated ranking information with the realm ranks and everything I was stoked to be able to see a realm time updated database of players, their gear, and their current exp/renown rank via the Character Search function they had. However NCSoft’s Live Server Status for Aion is definitely superior. You can check you population ratios for servers, characters, character gear, character stigmas, abyss points, and you can even check you in game mail/auction house item sales. There’s even a 3D character model that you can view to show off your character. Wow. Just simply amazing.

And in case you’re wondering what I’m up to, here’s my character Xight on there.

Return of The Player – Aion

Now its been quite a while since I last posted anything on here, but I’m just writing to let you all know that I’m alive, and still around. This past summer has been rather exciting of late with meeting new friends, and what not. Also since I live here in Maui I figured I go out, and catch some sun before getting trapped in my room from the next new MMORPG to come out. I know that I’ve been ranting about wanting to play something new now, and I think we’ve found our candidate. Aion. I’ll be looking into this while its going under open beta. Which if you would like to play, you can download/play it now with a preorder.
