Gamer’s University – Updated Mondays (at least)

Archive for the ‘News’ category

It has been a crazy past couple of weeks so I am a little behind on the latest and greatest. As far as informational updates go, I have been at the doctors office and hospital lately way more times than I care to, for both myself and for my wife who should be giving birth [...]

It seems like only weeks ago that we went to Blizzcon 2009, and now the next round is on the horizon. Hopefully we will be fortunate enough to cover the event this year as well! More on that as it develops.
From the press release:

BLIZZCON® 2010 ANNOUNCED

Blizzard Entertainment’s fifth BlizzCon gaming celebration to be [...]

Diablo 2! Remember that game?

Mario died today.
As a gamer, having grown up watching Captain Lou Albano on TV wasn’t cool because he was a WWF Wrestler. No, it was because he was Mario. Not from that crappy movie either, the only “real” Mario we’ve ever really had.
The cause of death was not immediately disclosed. But if it was due [...]

Most unintentionally late post ever! Sorry about the delay folks, I had some wordpress issues and I think I’ve got it figured out. I’ll just have to make it upto you with extra posts next week!
Dragonkitty and I rolled on down to the M:TG Zendikar pre-release last weekend to play my favorite format; sealed deck, [...]
