Shadow of Mordor Season Pass

So, the amount of information that we got out of Monolith today was spartan at best. Basically, the season pass works like this: there's a challenge mode where you have to withstand waves of creeps, several unique story missions that will come out over time, a unique playable character, and invites to live events. The game comes out September 30 (in North America) and the season pass content is available on October 3rd.

Inside the Beta - Wildstar

Wildstar is a new MMORPG scheduled to launch on June 3, 2014 in which I have been an active beta tester for about two months now.

Although they are just about to get wiped out, I currently have a level fifteen character that I've been playing for eighteen hours, a level eleven character that I've been playing for nine hours, and then a whole host of other characters that have been deleted over time -- bringing my total time with this game up to about fifty hours.

This past week the NDA dropped and now I've decided to do a video to talk about my impressions of my time in the beta.

Review - Redshirt

  • 0:48 - Gameplay
  • 2:05 - Pros
  • 4:47 - Cons
  • 7:22 - Final Thoughts

In this episode, I am currently into the middle of my second game of Redshirt. That's about ten hours in total.

In this series, you never have to wait for my opinion: in this case, Redshirt is a challenging and unique concept with a penchant for leaving you on the horns of a dilemma and a countdown to oblivion that makes each decision -- even dinner with a friend -- a life or death one.

But is it right for you? Well let's find out.
