finally got pyro acheivment milestones and how

match after match trying to get the 22 achievements needed to unlock all the weapons i realised that their are some maps in the server list called "acheivmentbox". instantly my attension was drawn to it, joined, and it was what it really said. Bots would spawn so u could easily get the 500 kills or the 1000 or even the backburner one. Yes it may be cheap, but it works and hey look at it this way you will get to use that sweet backburner quicker --->

Life on a low population server

the life of a low population server is going to be a weekly rant about how frustrated i get with being on a low - medium population server, its rough trust me. this weeks innoiance is the fact that i CANT ever find anyone to do 50-60 instances or if i do find someone they are really bad. like the time on my mage where we did sethekk halls (i think) where the last boss does an aoe attack. Guess what the healer died, and died , and died 5 more times, why? because he didnt understand line of sight. there was no excuse for dying 7 times on that the boss gives a raid warning when he is about to cast the aoe attack ffs! and yet the healer wouldn't move behind the damn pillar to save himself. 7 deaths and a hefty repair bill later he finally gets
it! gratz dude on being one of the worst healers on drak ' thul :)

midsummer fair is here

Personally i never knew this existed and am not sure if this event was around last year or years previous, but, what i do know is u can utilize this event into a FREE level. Yes you herd correctly a free level (providing you are lvl 50 +) it worked for me and it can work for you. So how you ask? well its pretty easy, each alliance or horde town has a tent and a bonfire like in the pic above ( the tent is away from town so u dont have to worry about guards ) . the bonfire will have a "!" above it, click it and u will get a 6 sec opening time then you complete the "quest" and get free XP (at lvl 54 i got 8124 xp for each times however many zones you want to go to ) . My only warning is to watch out for 70's if you are lower in places like goldshire where i had troubles and almost died. But this is an interesting way to get some free xp for doing nothing.

New pryo acheivments and free TF2 weekend

Pyro is the newest class to get the new weapons and achievements to boot, with addition of 2 maps and a few tweaks. Now the pyro flamethrower has an alternate fire which blasts enemies back and can supposedly deflect rockets (one of the acheivments wants you to do it 20 times) at a hefty 35 ammo price. This weekend valve are giving players a free trial of TF2 for those who dont have it. These acheivments and weapons have brought new life into the pyro for me, but, expect to see many pryos now that the patch is live.

Mario kart wii short review

Mario kart wii is the newest edition in racers to the wii library and the 6th games in the Mario kart series. Coming into this i was expecting a revolutionary or evolutionary experience granted that it is now on a "next gen" system but was slightly disapointed.

yes there are new characters and even new vehicles to drive ( bikes) but the core gameplay is still left unchanged. Other games like super smash brothers brawl encorpurated multiple control variations (GCN controler) mario kart wii does the same enableing the player to control with the wii mote, wii mote + numchuck , GCN controler and or classic controler.

mario kart wii is the same core game from MK64 which is a good thing but 10 years later we would expect something a little diffrent gameplay wise. It is a solid racer and probibly has the best controls for a wii racer.
but, would have liked to see a change ( like double dash ) in gameplay somewhat other than bikes which have almost no effect on how you play the game. There are times playing this where i am wonder if i could have saved 50 bucks and just played DD.




so mario kart wii...buy or not buy... well.. i didn't buy it my sisters did so its all good for me but i would sudjest at least rent it first. Mario kart wii, decent racer worth a...
