    Chronicles of Cataclysm: What Anachronisms?

    Fortunately, this has not been the case at all. I've played both gob and worgen to lvl 45 and the questing experience for each has remained largely top notch. For the Horde I've played through Aszhara, Ashenvale, Stonetalon, Desolace, Feralas, South Barrens, Northern Stranglethorn, Cape of...

My wife and I played it together over her Christmas break, pulling chairs close so she could help direct while I pointed and clicked. The little robot and its story were so evocative...

    Review: Lucidity

    It's likely that you won't feel too tempted to revisit stages you've already beaten when success and failure feel so arbitrary. Arbitrary? And here I thought it was my skill and ability to employ tactical solutions when strategy failed. Like with Tetris. Or Dr. Mario. Or every third puzzle...
