Geek Blog – Star Wars The Old Republic E3 Trailer Gives Me “Hope”
/drool
My understanding of this game is that it isn’t a “traditional” MMO such as EverQuest or WoW, but rather a single-player game, wrapped in a massive, multiplayer universe. You drive your own storyline by choosing dialogue options a la Mass Effect (another Bioware marvel) and can play the same class twice with vastly different effects.
Group up with others and as you interact with NPCs, you also influence your partner’s (or party’s) storyline.
Finally we get to see a Jedi in action!

Geek Blog – WoW Players Have RLs Too
Awesome entry into the “4-day Film” Category at the Darklight Film Festival. That means this beauty was filmed, FX’d and comp’d within a 4-day span. Not sure how I’d react to a Tauren in the elevator.

Geek Blog – Video Game Musicians
I’m a huge fan of video game music. OCRemix is my ultimate source for digital music, remixed or otherwise. I seldom get an opportunity to enjoy such creations from an analog source; however, I’d be first in line if Play! – a Video Game Symphony came to my area. After the jump, enjoy a couple of great scores performed by real people, using real instruments. As I understand it, FFIV – A Theme of Love is standard curriculum in Japanese music classes.
Geek Blog – Jerk RPG Heroes
Ever wonder what goes through an NPC’s head when a new hero comes to town? It’s not a sigh of relief that some lone hero has arrived to save the day, but rather, a wave of panic and an urgent need to tie down any loose valuables, to empty clay jars and crates. More after the jump.
Geek Blog – WoW Chicks Music Video
I should admit this up front: I’m a dude who has a chick avatar in WoW. Mysstress is just that, a mistress to my main: an undead, male, mage. I figured I made my first toon into a rough characterization of myself but wanted the next character (whom I’d inevitably watch for hours upon hours during the journey to level 80) to at least be decent to look at. As a horde player, that left me with very limited options (Troll Chick, Cow Chick, Rotting Chick, or Blood Elf Chick). My decision was almost made for me (and if I used audio very often while playing, I may have chosen to move to Alliance) and although I can’t stand the valley girl emotes, Mysstress was born (on Hyjal, BTW).
The following video purports that dudes play as chicks to get the lootz. I think there are far more sexier reasons than just in-game gear. Enjoy the dancing pixels. Who pays (in game) for an (ingame) lapdance? Thanks, YumfriesWOW.

Geek Blog – Dork Anthem
LOL. Should be the Geek Anthem. Very well written. “I was first in line to buy Halo 3/On Friday nights I play D&D.”
I love it! Check out more of Dave and Brian’s stuff on the iTunes store.

Geek Blog – Yeah, I Like WoW
This song has been making the inter-meme rounds lately and I found a WoW-related one that is pretty darn decent.

Geek Blog – Final Fantasy + Music Video = Win
I’m not entirely sure what drove me to dredge the interwebs’ series of tubes for “Final Fantasy Music Video” this morning, but I pulled up some real gems. In addition to the two singles that came from the under-valued FFX-2 (Real Emotion and 1000 Words) by Koda Kumi, but also some more modern tracks that go hand in hand with choice cut scenes from the Final Fantasy series. Here we have Clay Aiken’s “The Way” which I’ll dedicate to my lovely Geek Wife. Bon Jovi’s “It’s My Life”, Mariah Carey’s “Bye Bye” and the two FFX-2 singles are below the jump.
