July 26th, 2019When it comes to the lifetime of a World of Warcraft expansion, the things I look forward to most are new patches that include raid content. Why? Because raiding is easily the most enjoyable, and most challenging, thing that an MMO like WoW has to offer.
Typically with any given expansion, you're looking at 3-4 "Raid Tiers" that include...
June 21st, 2019Battle for Azeroth, World of Warcraft's seventh expansion, has been a rollercoaster ride, to say the least!
BFA has been a polarizing expansion to say the list; including (but not limited to) the controversial burning of Teldrassil, the overall vilification of Sylvanas Windrunner, and the somewhat unsuccessful Azerite Armor system. That...
May 23rd, 2019Now that Winter has come and gone for Game of Thrones on HBO, it appears that George R.R.

November 6th, 2018Over the weekend, Blizzard held their annual convention, BlizzCon, which focuses on the company's various titles and what exciting updates coming up for them. I had the pleasure of attending the event and getting to see and play some of these updates first hand!

August 7th, 2018With the launch of Battle for Azeroth less than a week away, it's no surprise that the hype train is moving full-steam ahead for WoW fans around the world - myself included.

July 31st, 2018I can fully admit that I have a problem... That's the first step, admitting it, right?

April 12th, 2018The much anticipated seventh expansion for Blizzard's MMO juggernaut World of Warcraft is right around the corner, and in fact, it had its release date announced last week and it'll be showing up quite a bit sooner than expected! For over a decade the Horde and Alliance have been fighting to protect their planet, but on August 14th...
December 12th, 2017As many of you may know, I'm a big-time fan of video games. I pretty much get down on any genre, any style, and any console.

What some of you may not know, though, is I'm also a big...

February 27th, 2017Anyone who has been intensely aware of Blizzard's hit game Overwatch would recognize this man's voice anywhere.
