New Site Brings World of Warcraft Cooking Into The Real World

The World of Warcraft (WoW,) operated by Blizzard Entertainment, is a Massively Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Game (MMORPG) with over nine million players worldwide. Players can create a wide variety of characters and train them in a variety of skills, referred to as "Professions"

One of the available game professions is *cooking.* This skill allows the player to create a wide variety of in game food items. The resulting dishes usually heal or restore the character in some way, but a few have other effects, such as turning the character into a pirate or ninja.

Of course, all of these recipes and food creations have been strictly virtual. While the character eats the "Curiously Tasty Omelet" or "Savory Deviate Delight" the player eats the microwave pizza. Now, things have changed.

The Original and Strictly Unofficial World of Warcraft Cookbook, by The Tauren Chef, brings over 60 World of Warcraft Recipes into the real world of the WoW player’s kitchen and dinner table. Dishes such as Goblin Deviled Clams and Beer Basted Boar Ribs are no longer just for the electronic characters.

The author, Guinevere, states that “The World of Warcraft Cookbook contains over 60 recipes, ingredient substitutions (since items such as "murloc arms" are difficult to find in most stores,) photographs, and complete step by step instructions for cooks of all levels.”

Another important point is that the photos in the WoW cookbook are those of the real dishes as they come out of the oven. Guinevere says that cookbook and magazine photos are very carefully prepared, glued, glazed, and look great, but are no longer food that anyone would want to eat. That’s not the case here. This means that the beginning chef can cook these dishes and have them look right, the first time.

The Real World of Warcraft Cookbook is oriented towards beginning chefs, but contains material suitable for more advanced chefs as well.

The Original and Strictly Unofficial World of Warcraft Cookbook is available for just $19.97 from the Tauren Chef website, http://www.taurenchef.com

Super Smash Bros. Brawl - WII


Welcome to a brawl for the ages, where anything can happen, anyone can show up and all bets are off. In multiplayer games, characters from all Nintendo universes meet up in Nintendo locales to duke it out. In the solo mode called "The Subspace Emissary," the world of Smash Bros. is invaded by an entity called the Ancient Minister and his army of creatures, called "The Primid." Normally, characters come alive in the world of Smash Bros. to do battle, then turn back into trophies when defeated. However, the Ancient Minister starts turning characters into trophies to harness their power, then detonates bombs that suck pieces of the world back into his realm of Subspace. Eventually, all the characters must work together to defeat the invading creatures from Subspace - this is accomplished by playing through side-scrolling levels.

PC Mass Effect delayed, HUD reworked


By Tor Thorsen, GameSpot
Posted Apr 8, 2008 11:36 am PT

For a while there was consolation for PC gamers who were miffed that Grand Theft Auto IV wouldn't hit their platform of choice on April 29. That's because Mass Effect, the critically acclaimed sci-fi role-playing game, was scheduled to ship for Windows just one week later on May 6. Today, though, came wordthat the BioWare-developed, now-EA-published game's PC debut has been pushed back to one month after GTA's debut on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

"I have just confirmed with the development team that we are making a small change to the release date of Mass Effect for the PC," said BioWare community administrator Chris Priestly in a forum post last night. "The new release date for North America is May 28, 2008 and June 6, 2008 in Europe."

As to the reason for the delay, Priestly said it was to allow BioWare and Boston-based Demiurge Studios, which is handling the port, to refine the PC port. "The additional time will allow us to incorporate more play-testing feedback, add extra polish, and tune the additional features," explained the admin.

The most noticeable alteration to the PC edition of Mass Effect is the new heads-up display system, which BioWare unveiled today (pictured). As it did with the PC edition of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, the developer has reworked a HUD optimized for a gamepad into one better-suited to a keyboard-and-mouse control scheme.

[UPDATE] Speaking with GameSpot, Mass Effect project director Diarmid Clarke outlined the refinements that will be included in the new HUD, which he said was "absolutely" responsible for the delay. "If it's going to work, it's got to work perfectly," he said. "It can't look like a piece bolted onto the game."

According to Clarke, the new HUD allows for much easier access to biotic powers and weapons by doing away with the radial HUD used in the 360 version. "All of the wheel stuff is now on the screen, you're not flicking between menus," he explained. "It's all just point and click now."

In particular, the new display scheme does away with the 360's inventory-management system, which drew widespread complaints for its lack of ease of use. Now, the guns will all be on the HUD screens ordered in rank of power, with customizable attachments and ammo types selectable via a drag-and-drop interface. Other keys will allow access to menu screens directly via a single key touch.

The new version of Mass Effect also takes advantage of hotkeys to let players more quickly use biotic powers. It will also have hotkeys for individual commands, which will let players issue orders to single non-player characters for improved tactical-squad combat. "It lets you be strategic and still do run-and-gun play," promised Clarke.

Clarke also said that the developer had made an array of tweaks and improvements based on criticism of the 360 Mass Effect. The dreaded long elevator rides would be sped up in certain "frequently used" conveyances, including that on the starship Normandy. The game's long loading times between interplanetary systems, another source of complaints, have also been reduced significantly. The controls for the Mako all-terrain vehicle have also been improved, and the graphics have (obviously) been optimized for PCs.

Will the improvements in the PC Mass Effect be implemented via downloadable content to the 360 Mass Effect? "You won't see any major changes to the original [360] game," a BioWare rep said. However, Clarke said it "would not be an unreasonable assumption" that many improvements would be included in Mass Effect 2, which the BioWare rep reconfirmed is already in development. "We're definitely working on it," he said.

Lineage II


Players create a character as their avatar in the game's medieval-style virtual world. Humans, Elves and Dark Elves start off in the Kingdom of Aden while Dwarves and Orcs start off in the Kingdom of Elmore (Elmore was an entirely different continent until recent versions of the game that have since joined Elmore to Aden). Players can choose from either fighter or mystic professions at the start, except for Dwarves which are only able to select the fighter profession. This choice acts as an archetype for later profession options. Each race has its own set of classes, even if humans, elves and darkelves have a lot of classes which are very similar to their counterparts in the other two races.

Players have a variety of things they can do for fun in the game. They play alone or as part of a group to fight monsters and complete quests for new skills, experience points, and items. Player versus player (PvP) is a significant portion of the game. The game provides many social, political, and economic aspects which are developed through the community and by the actions, in-game, of single players. Lineage II features siege warfare like the original. To make sure PvP stays under control, the design includes a Karma system that provides negative consequences for killing other players when they are not fighting back.

Lineage II features greatly improved third-person 3D graphics over its predecessor. The game uses the Unreal 2.0 Engine developed by Epic Games.

City of Heroes


Players begin by using the game's extensive character creation system to select an archetype and Power Sets, design a unique costume, and write a back story for their hero.

They may start their adventure in a tutorial zone known as "Outbreak" that teaches them how to play the game. It is here they learn about the level system and how to determine which enemies to attack. Players may choose to skip this tutorial if they like and head straight to one of two starting areas (Atlas Park and Galaxy City).

As a hero's security level increases by earning experience points from missions and by defeating foes, they gain benefits such as more health, more powers, more slots for holding temporary power-ups called Inspirations, and more enhancement slots for powers. Enhancements are power-ups which players can socket onto powers to improve them on more permanent terms.

Paragon City, the city in which the game takes place, is divided into different zones by giant energy walls known as "war walls." In story terms, the walls are used to prevent large scale attacks upon the city and to prevent high level enemies from entering low level areas. Zones are usually connected by road tunnels, but transportation such as the monorail, ferries and helicopters is also provided. Especially dangerous zones called hazard or trial zones, which teem with large groups of enemies, are connected by passages in the war walls guarded by the police and access is restricted to heroes with a minimum security level.

Players initially move around the zones by slowly jogging, sprinting, or by using the Prestige Power:Slide (available to owners of the special edition of the game). As heroes grow in level and accumulate more powers, they gain the ability to choose among four higher speed traveling powers: teleportation, superspeed, superjump, and fly, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. While each archetype has its own unique set of powers and abilities, all players have access to the powers from the ten Power Pools at level six. The Power Pools contain the aforementioned travel powers, as well as other generic, non-class specific powers such as Grant Invisibility, Provoke, Recall Friend, and Boxing.

There are a variety of different villain organizations and gangs in City of Heroes, each with unique attributes. Groups of villains, all from the same gang and usually all with similar security levels, roam around areas of Paragon City. Certain gangs are more likely to appear in different zones. For instance, Circle of Thorns (a magic using villain group) members can always be found in the hazard zone of Perez Park.

Missions — the City of Heroes equivalent of the quests typically found in other MMORPGs — are given by non-player character (NPC) contacts and consist of either a "hunt" mission, where heroes are given the task of arresting a certain number of villains from one of the villain groups, or a private "instanced" mission map created solely for the player's team which is inhabited by a particular gang. When heroes reach approximately level 20, they begin to receive outdoor instanced missions set in fenced-off areas as well. As heroes venture further into the mission zone, they usually have to confront a Boss villain, rescue hostages, or find a particular clue. Upon completion, heroes will be rewarded with an XP bonus, influence and occasionally a badge. Some missions may be completed at the hero's leisure, but others will have a set time limit which begins counting down as soon as the mission has been accepted from the contact. It is usually possible to tell, by reading its description, whether a mission is timed before accepting it.

Heroes can venture into mission maps together if they form a team and choose a particular member's mission as the team's objective. The difficulty level and number of the villains is adjusted according to the strength and number of the heroes grouped together. Since the release of the Issue 3 content update "A Council of War," the player is now able to set the difficulty of the missions by visiting a special NPC, the Hero Corps Field Analyst.

Amid the missions, story arcs will emerge. These are a series of missions which form a larger story, often giving the player new insights into the history and mythos of Paragon City. Sometimes, these story arcs affect the player hero directly as well. Once a story arc is completed, the hero is rewarded with experience points, enhancements and a souvenir, serving as a reminder of the character's actions.

For players who can devote a block of several hours to the game, two other types of missions with deeper storylines are available—the Task Force and the Trial. Task Forces always require a team, and consist of a series of linked missions that must be run to completion by that same team before its members may take on any additional missions. Once a Task Force has been started, additional players will not be able to join the team. In addition, Leadership of the Task Force can not be reassigned. If a Task Force member voluntarily leaves the team while the Task Force is in progress, he is unable to rejoin it. In the case somebody is involuntarily disconnected, then he will return to the Task Force when reconnected. Trials are similar to Task Forces but are usually shorter and more challenging; some share the team restrictions of a Task Force but others are taken as individual missions, though teams are still practically required. Upon completion, both Task Forces and Trials usually (but not always) provide all participants with a badge as well as a reward—either a Single Origin or a special enhancement. Several specially-designated Trials reward players with an opportunity to "respecify" their characters by choosing a different complement of superpowers or reassigning enhancements.

Teamwork is a large part of City of Heroes. Players can form supergroups (similar to other MMORPGs' guilds) reminiscent of classic comic book groups such as the X-Men or Justice League of America. Supergroups pick a name, a motto, an emblem, and two colors. Heroes can then enter "Supergroup Mode" and change the colors and emblem of their normal avatar to those of their Supergroup. Players can also form teams with other players to go on missions and fight villains together. Unlike many MMORPGs, City of Heroes has a system where players of vastly different power levels can team together; a lower-leveled player may play as the sidekick of a higher-leveled one and participate in missions which the player would normally be too weak for, or a higher-level player may act as an exemplar to a lower-leveled player, temporarily reducing the exemplar's combat level to match the lower-level player's.

The PS3 Games Mystery


By: Carver Tate
The news is out: the PS3 games console is to be launched simultaneously around the globe in November 2006. But despite the grand global launch plan for the PS3 games console, there are doubts about its impact on the market. Even more, game analysts doubt if this global launch can help Sony regain lost market because of the earlier release of Microsoft’s Xbox 360. There are also many speculations why the new PS3’s launch keeps getting delayed.

Though Sony claims that the delays were due to digital rights management or DRM troubles, many analysts believe otherwise. Analysts pose more pressing issues as reasons for the PS3 games console’s launch delays. Eiichi Katayama, an analyst from Tokyo-based Nomura Securities’ Financial & Economic Research, suggests that the delays are probably caused by the slow progress of graphics chip development. Others offer reasons such as insufficiency of appropriate software titles. However, Sony is quick to dismiss these rumors and again reiterated the problem of DRM for their Blu-ray optical drive.

Blu-ray chips provide the new console with removable PS3 storage capacity that is five times bigger than the storage provided by DVDs of older consoles. Reports that PS3’s Blu-ray and DRM feature are almost finished make them unlikely causes of delays. According to Katayama, ROM mark and BD+ licensing have already started which make copy protection technology an implausible reason. Analysts believe that if DRM technology really cause the delay, the profit from PS3 games console would not suffer too much. However, if the reasons are as they believe — graphics chip development — the sales impact would probably be the worst in Sony’s history.

Sony contradicts the analysts’ measure of the situation and denies that the delays set the PS3 games console and the company at a disadvantage behind Microsoft and Xbox 360. Xbox 360 hit the stores last year and is still the top gaming console according to market trends. Jennie Kong, Sony’s European branch’s PR manager, defends the company’s strategy and claims that the company doesn’t allow itself to be dictated by their competitors’ moves. However, history supports the analysts’ views of the matter. It can be recalled that Microsoft and Sony had once faced the same situation, only this time, Sony has the advantage with the early release of their PS2 over the first Xbox. Current Analysis’ Steve Kovsky reminds that at that time, Microsoft suffered huge losses; clearly, Sony is slated for the same fate with PS3.

If Sony pushes for the November 2006 launch, it gives the Xbox 360 a full year sales advantage. However, the PS3 games franchise’s problem does not end with the launch’s delays. Rumors and news are circulating that even before its game console’s launch, Sony is planning to outlaw its resale. Different sources claim that Sony plans to sell the new consoles with their own individual licenses. This effectively prohibits second-hand sales in person or in online shops like http://Amazon.com and http://eBay.com. In essence, buyers are only purchasing the license to use the consoles; Sony still holds the proprietorship of the product. Game analysts comment that this is a logical move, if proven true. Sony would need all the push it can have to increase the sales of individual PS3 units.

The company refrains from making comments about the allegations no licensing. They maintain that all important announcements have been made during the E3 trade show and all other announcements would be made on the PS3 games console launch. This announcement, instead of putting a stop to the rumor mill only fuel the fire. But as it is, there is nothing gamers can do but just play their PS3 games and wait.

MMORPG and Real Life


Every form of art tries to capture life and its flavor. Along with the evolution of technology, computer games are now state of the art masterpieces. Behind a successful complex game, there is a team of graphical artists, programmers, scenario writers and so on. Because of their great resemblance with reality, games we play today reveal to us a world of fantasy, sensations and experiences far beyond everyday life.

MMORPG's are at high stake these days. These games became a billion dollar industry these days thanks to the great number of players out there. What makes these games so popular is the simple fact that the player can be whatever he wants in that game. He can gain power far beyond his ordinary powers, he can have money or possessions, or he can rule that virtual fantasy world.

We must admit that these games can possess the player's mind. At first, the game is a pleasure but in many cases, the players become obsessed with it especially if it is a great game. The impact of a masterpiece virtual world is very high and losing contact with reality is only one-step away.

The larger the world is, the greater the opportunities for the players are. What makes these games wanted is the pure will of dominion. Feeling this virtual power, the player is absorbed completely into the game. Coming back from work with a bad mood, arguing with a grumpy boss, pulled over by the police, having a quarrel with his wife about her mom coming to dinner are just some of the problems one is facing daily. The idea of leaving it all behind and jumping into the action of your favorite MMORPG is great.

Game developers are trying to make things as real as possible. For example, Entropia Universe is a huge MMORPG with great graphics. The more realistic aspect of the game is that you can exchange real money for money in the game and vice versa (10PED=$1). With the money you exchange in the game's currency you can buy whatever you need inside the game in order to develop your character.

This game is just an example but there are tons of games like that out there. For every personality, there is a character and a game that will fit your idea of life. How good you want to get at it depends on you. Game developers are testing and experimenting to create more and more wonderful games. Who knows what evolution will bring in terms of virtual reality. Only the future will tell.

Shooting Games - Sharp Shooters are not Always Bad! by Peter rodrick


Someone was assassinated in a downtown area of the city last morning! The INTERPOL thinks of some sharp shooters involved for this sinful act, who probably used the new bolt-action Centerfire Rifle from Remington with a Bushnell 3-9X scope! Do not fall from your seat...this is nothing other than the bruit we wrote!!! But now, we need some sharp shooters who take over the mission and complete it restless with flawless performance.

Not putting a reader in mystery further, let us talk clearly that shooting games are the genre of video or computer games that are gaining skyrocketing popularity. No one on this planet would hate it; irrespective of the gender and age. However, shooting style or type may differ since someone would like to be on hardcore mission where they see deserts around with no water or a battlefield with no mercy and others may like to be thousands of miles away from the earth, targeting meteorites and all the space objects from their supersonic spaceships.

This type of games cover a fairly broad spectrum of genres, which have the commonness of controlling some character or an object (like vehicle or spaceship) that is generally armed with a firearm that can be freely aimed at target or enemy to destroy or to gun down respectively. The shooters in the games that attempt to emulate life-like ballistics and characters that damage the target are often called as tactical shooters. Those that use more lenient arms are usually labeled as arcade shooters. However, whatever the type of shooter you require for shooting games, it is for sure that once you start your computer or TV with this game, you get lost in another world where you don't feel hunger or thirst!

Such type of action games includes adventure and thrill. There are several option to play these games, like many games would be solo ventures where as others may offer the players the opportunity to order a squad of characters, generally directly controlling one, the head or the chief. This chief would be giving orders to computer-controlled allies. Games that feature non-player characters that fight alongside the player but that are not directly controlled (either by switching player control or by ordering to the other characters) are not categorized under the squad-based games.

Shooting games can be played through the game CD that is readily available in the market that can be put onto the computers and played or the generation-next players who look for game players like PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo player platforms are latest devices that have different quality of sound and system that add realistic flairs to shooting games. If your pocket does not permit such type of shooting games, you can go online for free! There are plenty of websites offering online shooting games free of cost. All you need is to logon to the website, select the game and get started with your mission. Another genre - MMORPG is also a revolutionary game that rocks the net nowadays.

Shooting Games - A Great Way to Improve Alertness by Peter rodrick


There is no doubt about this that playing shooting games, one can find a great way to expand the realm of thinking, alertness and multitasking. For parents, especially for their children, shooting games are the best options to entertain them and make them alert as well. There are many parents who allow their children to spend quite a lot of time in front of the idiot box! But, then, what good does that do for children? There, the characters perform and they watch, in shooting games character perform what they do. A big difference! Isn't it? This is something like you watch a football match and feel great when David Beckham kicks the goal but it would make you feel million dollars when you are in his shoes!

If you want children to learn something while they are zoned out, probably this guessing of yours stands nowhere and you are lost. But, if you flip on the computer, get some great shooting game, you may really be able encouraging children to learn more and you encourage excellent thinking skills as well. Alertness is not something that everyone can feature well. Now, here, we are referring this to a process that comes along with solving problems, being alert so that the character playing leading role in shooting games does not get killed and an adroitness to find many secret things and finally to accomplish the mission without losing health and life.

For almost all the children, this is something in their life they struggle with. Dear mamma and dad always look after it and they become solely dependent creatures! Even many scientists favor that video games, if played in a positive way, can make their players clever and alert. This is because the character or the Hero in lead role in game is being targeted by hundreds of enemies with thousands of bullets. Where to crawl, where to hide and when to attack make player perfect in many ways and that is why, such games carry much importance than just being a video game.

Well, so too much time in front of the computer makes your child a real couch potato. It's okay since you are secured that your kid is not moving around with his friends who are gone astray! Games' genre like MMORPG has created milestone in online gaming zone and your kid does not require any company since he finds millions of guys who are available 24X7! However, it also depends upon you to make them study apart from being a real warrior in shooting games!

Many shooting games come with some latest devices or joysticks and so many games are equipped with guns that one can shoot onto the TV or computer screen. Isn't it amazing to improve shooting skills and to point out where exactly it is needed? Not surprising that your kid may become some great archer or a hardcore dart player!!!

WOW Accounts by ken wilson


World of Warcraft, in abbreviation WOW, is one of the games introducing players into the world of the MMORPG, meaning Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games. The game can be accessed by means of WOW accounts which are accessible on the internet by accessing official sites. They offer you any necessary steps and information to buy WOW accounts.

Beside the basic information you will also beneficiate of new and interesting details regarding the game. We can mention here the fact that there is a border in accessing other servers except for the ones situated in the proximate area of the players. The reason for this is to keep a game characterized by fluency, each server being able to support a number of 2500-3000 players which will not be able to change the team when they consider they have anything to win by this. Therefore, WOW accounts offer you steadiness, motivation, and loyalty. If you buy WOW accounts, you will also get simultaneous updates for the servers. The races are given appropriate advantages. Nevertheless, none of them is favored. Also, the graphics is nice and eye-catching, and the passionate of the game get a complex system of quests... all in all the fun is guaranteed.

Being classified among the fastest-developing online game in European history, WOW accounts has brought a new record in matter of number of accounts created, concurrency and number of servers. If we talk figures, we talk about 290,000 players that accessed WOW accounts during the first weekend. About 45% of these, created their accounts on the first they. Not to mention the 180,000 concurrent users in Europe during the first weekend, which meant a new record. As far as the number of servers is concerned, over 80 servers were put to disposal in Paris and Frankfurt in order to deal with the European launch. Moreover, whenever the number of users grows significantly new servers are ready to take the new players on.

How exactly does it work? First of all you have to follow the steps to buy WOW accounts and to create your own account. After creating such an account, the user will design a character of his own. By this, we mean that the user will create it from head to tows according to his own will and imagination, embedding his own personality, his own ideas. Therefore, WOW accounts allow you to play a personalized game, with personalized results. I mentioned earlier the teams; there are two teams: The Alliance and The Horde. Immediately after creating their character, the user can choose to fight for one team or the other, but they do not have the possibility to change teams until the end of the game. This way, speculation was anticipated and thrown out of the game. Characters can have different roles in the game, also chosen by the user. They can be: warrior, hunter, warlock, priest, mage, etc. Each character can belong to different classes of characters, according to the race. Beside this characters which are in fact avatars of the users themselves, there are also characters that cannot be created, managed, or controlloed by the users, these being enemies or helpers.

We can conclude that there is a great liberty given to the game, but under certain limits so that the game is a fair one and a game that offers motivation. Also, when you buy WOW accounts you are offered protection, so that no one can access your account but you. Everything was thought of so that the players can think only of the game and of the fun it brings along.

If I couldn't buy them, I would trade with neighborhood kids or I would rent them at stores. I honestly couldn't get enough. Now I have a Nintendo Wii and just love it.

Last year I bought quite a few and rented tons more from the local Hollywood Video, but it was just getting so expensive. I was determined to find a better way. Well now, I'm a bit older and a bit wiser and I discovered a better way to go about getting my games from a few online websites.
