			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://thevideogameplace.com/wp-content/uploads/HitGoldCap125x125.jpg" alt="Hit Gold Cap" title="Hit Gold Cap" width="125" height="125" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-81" />One of the most obnoxious parts of World of Warcraft is the process of making gold. Players who want to make gold in WoW often have to spend hours a day farming for it in various ways. They need to go out and farm on old instances, mining nodes, herbalism nodes, and a dozen other ways that are highly tedious after a few weeks of the same thing. Which is why many players will jump at any chance they can to make gold in WoW without farming for it so often.</p>
<p>Getting to Know the Auction House</p>
<p><span id="more-79"></span></p>
<p>The Auction House is a very complex structure with a ton of data points to work with. To get to know it properly, you need to install add-ons like Auctioneer, Auctionator, Postal, and Market Watcher. Other add-ons like TitanPanel can be very helpful as well as it can make seeing your total gold counts and bag space easier. Generally speaking, youâ€™ll need to be sure you have everything operational and scan the data in the auction house almost every day (or more often if you can). This data will allow you to learn how the data interacts and how to find the best auctions to buy out and resell.</p>
<p>How to Make Gold in WoW with Less Time Spent</p>
<p>The key to making more gold in WoW while spending less time doing so is to focus on auctions with high yield returns. Things like Eternals and Cobalt Ore are great, but the return is not as high as things like Crusader Orbs, Primordial Saronite, or Titansteel. These items, while very expensive, will always sell for a profit if you know when to sell them and how much to sell them for. Many players spend hours a day doing this, while others are able to login for an hour a day and make thousands of gold very quickly.</p>
<p>The key to make gold in WoW is not to assume youâ€™ll be able to do it steadily like you do with farming. You need to be able and willing to take risks and push yourself a bit harder than you do normally. The rewards will then be far greater than they would be if you flew in circles around Storm Peaks or Icecrown for hours on end. Do that and youâ€™ll be far better off with your gold making methods for months to come.</p>
<p>To really pile on the gold, consider getting the &#8220;Hit Gold Cap&#8221; book. Let&#8217;s face it. There are a ton of World of Warcraft gold guides out there. Find out why this one is the best by <a href="http://y9y.info/hit-wow-gold-cap">clicking here</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What do you think of the new Cerberus Network; the in-game downloadable distribution channel?</p>
<p>The idea is that as the initial owner of a retail version of a game, you get to download some additional pieces. However, if you are buying the game used, then those downloads will cost you moola!</p>
<p>For Mass Effect 2, players who pick the game up used need to drop 15 dollars in order to only have the ability to get the DLC that BioWare might release in the coming months for the title.</p>
<p>(note: <strong>DLC</strong> stands for &#8220;DownLoadable Content&#8221;. It refers to downloadable add-ons for games, like new maps or new characters.)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you don&#8217;t want to put the effort into making gold yourself, then buying gold outright is the best way to get it. You can get what you want in 48 hours or less, and prices are very cheap if you know where to look.</p>
<p>Like with everything, however, there are a number of scams around, and there are many &#8220;gold sellers&#8221; who&#8217;ll take your money and never deliver the gold. So let&#8217;s go through what you need to look for when it comes to buying gold.</p>
<p><strong>#1: Only buy from large suppliers</strong></p>
<p><span id="more-39"></span></p>
<p>This one is a must. Larger suppliers will have gold for both horde and alliance characters in every major server, so you can get your gold within 24-48 hours at the most. If you go with a lesser known supplier, then you&#8217;ll often have to wait a week or more for them to farm your gold for you.</p>
<p>Smaller sellers may offer lower prices, but it simply isn&#8217;t worth it if you have to wait a week or more. Therefore, go for large suppliers with tons of gold available.</p>
<p><a href="http://y9y.info/wow_gold"><img src="http://thevideogameplace.com/wp-content/uploads/wow-gold.jpg" alt="wow (world of warcraft) gold" title="wow gold" width="250" height="326" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-41" /></a><strong>#2: Find out what their customer service is like</strong></p>
<p>If you are unsure whether you trust the seller, send out an email to them first. If they don&#8217;t give you a response for a few days then it may not be worth dealing with them. If they have live support and reply back quickly, then it is a good indication that they are a reputable company.</p>
<p><strong>#3: See if you can get discounts</strong></p>
<p>Most people don&#8217;t know about this, but many sellers will be happy to give you a discount if you buy lots of gold in bulk. You can contact customer support and tell them how much you want to buy, and see if they&#8217;ll give you a discount based on how much gold you are buying. This is especially useful if you&#8217;re buying gold for friends and other players.</p>
<p><strong>#4: Check their order cancellation policy</strong></p>
<p>Major sellers who are worth dealing with (see points 1 and 2) will often give a money-back guarantee if they cannot deliver the gold to you in time. Before buying from a seller, see if they offer a guarantee like this. That way you have nothing to lose and you don&#8217;t risk wasting your money if the seller doesn&#8217;t have the gold in stock.</p>

A single player adventure, Mass Effect 2 allows players to continue the adventures of the fully customizable series hero, Commander Shepard, as you take on a whole new adventure and cast of supporting characters.

On the fringes of known space, something is silently abducting entire human colonies. Now Shepard must work with Cerberus, a ruthless organization devoted to human survival at any cost, to stop the most terrifying threat mankind has ever faced. To even attempt this perilous mission, Shepard must assemble the galaxy&acirc;€™s most elite team and command the most powerful ship ever built. Even then, doubters say it would be suicide. Commander Shepard intends to prove them wrong.                                               The return of Commander Shepard.

View                larger.                                          Gameplay An space-based action RPG like its predecessor, gameplay in Mass Effect 2 revolves around the player's particular version of Commander Shepard  and continuing development of this character as the game proceeds. As the game opens a variety of character classes are made available to the player, with talents, both exclusive and general, associated with each. With experience these talents are leveled up, resulting in the unlocking of related abilities and/or entirely new talents. The player has the ability to customize their Commander Shepard in a number of ways including physical appearance, gender, and certain aspects of their personal history, with the rub being that these choices can influence things like available missions, dialogue choices with non-player characters (NPCs), and character background.  Accompanying this main character are a number of preset supporting characters that the player can direct and develop relationships with, which again, will alter the outcome of the story. All the characters from the original game make an appearance in Mass Effect 2, but the immediate characters surrounding Commander Shepard are new. Additional new features that players can expect to experience include new alien races; a more realistic damage system; a new heavy weapons system allowing for maximum damage; a regenerative health system; a dramatic increase in the number of character animations available to Shepard; and updates to the dialogue mechanic used when conversing with NPCs.  Integration with the Original Mass Effect Mass Effect 2 allows players of the original Mass Effect game to import save games to continue the story of their own Commander Shepard. In doing this, the decisions that were made in the first game will affect the events of the second game. In addition, characters from the first game will return, as long as they were not killed off by the player in the first game. On the other hand, new players coming to the series for the first time in Mass Effect 2 will start a brand-new character, discover the events of the previous games as they progress and embark on a thrilling stand-alone adventure that does not require the previous game for play.   Key Features      Futuristic Weapons - Choose from 19 different weapons, including devastating heavy weapons that can end a battle in seconds.   Elite Specialists - Recruit up to a dozen of the galaxy's most dangerous operatives to help you in your mission. Train and equip your team to survive insurmountable odds.   Explore the Galaxy - Scan planets to uncover unique secret missions in the Mass Effect universe.   Integration with Original Mass Effect - Players of the first Mass Effect can import save games to continue the story of their own Commander Shepard. New players will find a thrilling stand-alone adventure awaits them, a polished and action packed journey that surpasses the first game in nearly every possible way.   Intense Third-Person Combat - Increased intensity with precision shooter controls to let you control the action and overcome insurmountable odds.   New Damage System - New location based damage system allows for targeting of key weak points, blasting off limbs, igniting enemies, or crippling and disabling enemy troops.   Character Customization - Choose a player class, customize your appearance, and tailor your own abilities and strengths. As you progress, so do Shepard&acirc;€™s abilities.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Both Sony and Microsoft plan on releasing motion-sensing controllers in 2010.</p>
<p>Sony originally said it would introduce the controller this spring, but is now delaying the release of its new motion-sensing controller for the PlayStation 3 game console until autumn.</p>
<p>The new release date gives Sony more time to accumulate a &#8220;comprehensive portfolio of titles to choose from at launch.&#8221;</p>
<p>This may still bring the new PS3 controller out before the XBox version, which games rival Microsoft Corp. aims to release in time for the end-of-year holiday season. Supposedly the Microsoft entry (Project Natal) eliminates the need for a controller altogether by using the body&#8217;s movements to control on-screen actions.</p>
<p><span id="more-63"></span></p>
<p>Nintendo, whose Wii videogame console originated the motion-controller, has not indicated whether it&#8217;s upgrading its controller. </p>

<p>World of Warcraft has been massively successful and has exceeded the normal popularity of a role-playing title. The main reason for this is that it is very accessible and straightforward, and it is not difficult to play it. Even if you are completely new to gaming you shouldn&#8217;t have any problems getting started.</p>
<p>World of Warcraft is an easy game to set up. It comes on 4 discs that you install on your computer. You then have to create a game account. Your access to the game&#8217;s world involves paying a monthly subscription via credit card or an equivalent. The typical subscription rate is $14.95 per month. The first month is usually free as part of your purchase. The subscription can be paid every month, or every three months or six months if you prefer. </p>
<p><span id="more-35"></span></p>
<p>&lt;table cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; border=&quot;0&quot;&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;World of Warcraft operates through a series of servers that differ depending on where you are in the world. The servers are positioned globally and you simply connect to whichever one is local to you. The servers allow you to access the game. They are a reliable system and well maintained. There are different types of servers for each type of action that you play, whether it is role-playing or player versus player, for example. The servers are named as realms in order to increase the feel of the game.</p>
<p>World of Warcraft takes place in the world of Azeroth, a fictional land that has been the setting for all of the Warcraft games. </p>
<p>This world has its own history and myths. It was created by ancient gods, who gave rise to the earliest races on the planet. Azeroth resembles our own world and has recognisable landmarks like cities, forests, caverns, towers, dungeons and other structures. Azeroth has seen much trouble in its time, and its past has included great wars and conflict.</p>
<p>The universe in World of Warcraft is imaginative and is the home to many races. </p>
<p>The world of Azeroth is structured as three continents &#8211; the Eastern Kingdoms, Kalimdor, and Northrend. They all have their own inhabitants and climate. The Eastern Kingdoms are the home of humans, dwarves and gnomes, who are known collectively as The Alliance. Kalimdor is the home of tauren, orcs and trolls, who are known collectively as The Horde. Northrend is the home of the wicked Lich King.</p>
<p>Although World of Warcraft is rich and detailed, it is an easy game to understand.</p>
<p>All characters tend to belong to one of two groups, the Alliance and the Horde. The Alliance seems good in nature while the Horde is generally more evil. The Alliance characters are attractive to look at and are considered pretty, while the Horde characters are ugly and less appealing. You can play as characters from either group, and they each possess their own personalities and strengths.</p>
<p>World of Warcraft allows you to design your own character and customise them as you see fit. The character that you create can be one of nine possible classes. The classes include choices like druids, hunters, mages, rogues, shamans and warriors. Every class has its own skills and professions. You will use these talents to help you in the game. The process of creating a character is simple, and it allows you to express your own identity, as your character is a reflection of yourself. </p>
<p>The gameplay in World of Warcraft concentrates on exploration. The main game contains sixty levels, all of which feature much territory to explore. There are many items in the game that you can either take for yourself or trade. The main currency in Azeroth is gold, and you will need to collect a lot of it to buy armour and weapons and other useful goods. There is also a great deal of combat and you must defeat many monsters and creatures in order to progress.</p>
<p>World of Warcraft is designed beautifully, and you will find it a pleasure to learn how everything functions and works. The control system is sensible and makes good use of the keyboard and mouse. The game includes a camera that allows you to look around and have a full view of your environment. In general, it is a clear and comprehensible experience.</p>
<p>World of Warcraft is a very entertaining game and is easy to play. Its strength is that you don&#8217;t need to have detailed knowledge or experience of the role-playing genre to enjoy it. Even though the game contains a large and detailed world you will not have a problem understanding it. This is a perfect game for any kind of player.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here is where I and Nintendo have a little disagreement.</p>
<p>We spend a couple of hundred to get the Wii machine, as much as $50 or more each to get some good games, some more yet to get additional controllers (expensive due to sensors inside) and then I find out that some (many?) of the games will not work well without nunchuks!!! What&#8217;s a Nunchuk?</p>
<p>That said, the family loves this beast, and the sensor feature in the controllers is awesome!</p>
