While we don’t do numeric scores here, if we did you could rest assured that World of Goo would get an 11. And a half.

After months of anticipation I’ve finally had my first weekend with Battlefield 2. My thoughts are kind of a mixed bag while being overall positive. As a fan of the first game, and even more so its MOD “Desert Combat“, I had naturally high expectations.
To begin with, the graphics. As anticipated, BF2′s graphics are excellent, and the higher you crank your settings the more you realize just how very nice they are. I’m running it on a Radeon 9800 Pro and the game plays well, though it definitely shows the age of my card and pushes it to its limits. I was able to play-barely-at 1024×768 with all the settings maxed out, though it played more smoothly at 1024×768 and
medium detail, with a few of the polishing bits turned to high.

World of Warcraft
I can’t say that I eagerly awaited this title, but my son had. I decided that I would buy it for him and give it a go for myself when he wasn’t playing. I rarely get a chance to play and when I do, I can find myself engrossed.

World Of Warcraft: The Gnome Warrior
Many people laugh at the idea of a Gnome being a warrior. They are small in stature and their stats are not well rounded for a warrior. Even their racial traits do not work well for the class. But I love being the underdog, making the game harder and far more interesting for myself. All the other races underestimate the Gnome warrior’s ability to fight, but I feel each race gives a different feel to the same class. In Beta I leveled an Orc warrior and I did not enjoy the warrior at all, but once I started to play a Gnome warrior it was a different experience.
