Aion Revisited: Levels 1 – 20 Review [PC]

Macs vs PCs an honest none-biased truthful debate

apple_chrome2I’ve been using Mac now for over 2 years and will never go back to using Windows for work. Infact I need to thank Microsoft on releasing Vista that caused the move. /bows at Microsoft

However Macs are great, bla bla bla. You don’t need to know this. However you do need a loan or an extended mortgage to buy Mac. Where with Windows you can buy a PC from as low as £200, Cheapest Mac is £500. Expect to pay an extra 2.5x what you would normally pay for a PC. I’ve compiled a truthful list of what I have noticed in using Macs, I’m not going to be biased on this. So if your thinking of going Mac let me give you the rundown.

I think I’ve got World of Warcraft comparison syndrome with Champions Online review

champions_logoI’m going through cold turkey at the moment, I’ve stopped playing World of Warcraft for nearly 10 months. I played WoW since the launch back in 2004 and nothing compares. Its making me feel sick, as I want to move and enjoy other MMO’s. There is always this wall in front of me, if it doesnt feel like WoW I cannot adapt. Its like coming off drugs.

I’ve not touched an MMO since World of Warcraft, but some other new MMO’s were hitting the shelves. I took the plunge and dived in.

Champions Online

I never played City of Heroes before Champions Online, I had been following it since it was suppose to be Marvel Online Universe. But when Microsoft and Marvel pulled the plug, they went for an untouched IP ‘Champions’. I never played any of the role playing games before so it was an interested take. I instantly purchased this game when the retail servers went live. Crazy downtime but was shocked on how great the character creation was, this was a game in its own right. Creating such diverse characters is awesome. The game is very good also, takes you through a tutorial and is very very different from other fantasy MMO’s like World of Warcraft. The game is good, but feels very unfinished. I was downloading a 80~mb patch daily with fixes.
