    Hearthstone

    Having a tonne of fun with a deathrattle hunter. Unleash the hounds / Infest is pretty slick. Clear the board and fill your hand with beasts. Decent against control if you can drop the give all the deathrattle minions in your hand +1/+1. Might actually have to craft that resurrect all your...

    Hearthstone

    Wished I got a Yogg-Saron drop in my pre-order packs, looks fun. With the slow meta Tempo Mage with cabalists tome seems ok. Got a decent number of lengendaries from old gods so I can't really complain, just have been fairly mediocre ones (so far, 2 Fandrals, 1 Herald Volazj, 1 Princess...

    Hearthstone

    Shaman does looks pretty good. Still, it's really early. Probably good to let the meta settle for a week or so and see which builds prove reliable before burning too much dust.

    Hearthstone

    So far, it seems like they have converted a lot of 'card effect' RNG, for card draw order RNG. Most of the old gods effects are considerably greater than normal high cost legendaries, but decks are all over the place right now so not much consistency. Could be scary when reliable decks get...

    MUDding

    I had my phone number permanently banned from the local BBS for 'hacking' some Red Dragon RPG MUD. In the tavern there was some sort of pseudo blackjack gambling mini-game. I discovered that it would happily accept a negative value wager (and then intentionally lose). In about 20 minutes I was...

    Master of Orion is coming back

    Doesn't look like much more than directing your ships where to fly. In MoO 2 you had direct control of each ship and each bank of weapons (up to 10 I believe). This allowed you to build very specialized fleets. For example, I was rather fond of a fleet composed of battleships with long range...

    Hearthstone

    Managed to get up to rank 10 this month so far. Looked like I was going to stall on 13 again, but there seemed to be a proliferation of face warriors all of a sudden which I've been straight crushing with both Zoolock and Tempo mage. Don't see too many druids at those ranks, but I can see why...

    Master of Orion is coming back

    Watched a bunch of videos over the weekend. Hype mode dissipating fast. It looks pretty slick, so there is hope they can get it together - but a lot of the design choices suggest an effort to simplify. Custom races + tactical combat were what gave MoO2 long term impact. Looks like the custom...

    Master of Orion is coming back

    Hmm... Repulsive Lithovores may again threaten the universe (who needs diplomacy or plants when you have a giant fleet of planet destroyers).

    Rebel Galaxy

    Picked this up on the sale, ate the better part of the weekend. It's certainly lived up to my Wing Commander: Privateer + Serenity expectations. Wide but not very deep. But it absolutely hits the same mark as FTL did in that is plays pretty much exactly how you remember games in the 90's...

    Hearthstone

    Last month I was able to push up to rank 13 using tempo mage and finally get enough dust for Antonitus. However I really struggled getting any traction out of the gate this month with it. Switched back to my self created warlock deck and have had two good runs so far. Although I did manage to...

    Anyone here play either Doom or Wolfenstein 3D when they first came out?

    Played a little of the shareware version of Wolf 3D on a family members computer as we only has a Tandy 286 at the time. But we soon got a 486 DX33 at home (later upgraded with to a Cyrix 6x86 PR 133+), played shareware doom. Bought myself Doom 2 with my bottle collection money, and spent...

    [H] Forza 6 Players

    I thought I had nailed down my preferred settings until I did a series in the CanAm Classics. Those are not forgiving.

    hdmi run to another room for Pc gaming

    Don't know about Xbox One controller, but fallout certainly has no issues with an Xbox 360 controller (with the PC receiver). Also, if your video card has a DVI output - you can usually get audio + video over a DVI to HDMI cable (even surround). Not sure about AMD, but for NVidia most cards...
