Well, after about two year of not doing a game design podcast. I am working with Jake and Mike on recording another show. However we had one started, but we are finding issues with it that we might just scrap it.
Well we will give it a shot in a few days when our times work out better.

I wanted to add a few links to some of the projects I own. To the right side you will see “Shylor’s Projects”, those would be mine. I also added a set of links to some of my friend’s sites.
If your bored you should check out Despenced as you will find a lot of interesting videos and posts. Also if your a programmer help us jump start the Digital Wizards community!

It seems that 3.3.3 has a lot of extras stored in the patch files. A few new sound files have made their way out and into light.
SPOILER
The new sound files show that the gnomes are getting ready for a battle over Gnomeragan, and the trolls over the Echo Islands. This could lead to 2 more cites in WoW:Cat. The goblins and worgens already have a city planned also in the expansion.
My prediction about the sound files is that these were not put in for patch 3.3.3, but are for patch 3.4 as we start to build up to WoW:Cat. This would allow Blizzard to start to release files early so that the bigger patches are not so big. However players like to dig through these files and find every clue Blizzard has to leave.

The GameInformer Magazine Cover
From what I have been reading around the webs it seems that Portal 2 is on it’s way later this year. I was a huge fan of portal, and even completed it the same day. I found myself showing it to others, then later finishing the game all over again. The story is simple yet epic.
Valve has released a new ending to the game that makes you think a bot is pulling you off somewhere. That seems to be a good way to start the next part. I hope to be impressed with the game like I was with the first one. It is not everyday that a big studio goes out on a limb to try something new… like the 500 WWII games we have.
Valve you have my word on it I will be back to try the next installment!

Well, the game has only been out for a few days, and I managed to beat all the missions… on easy. I wanted to be able to complete it and enjoy the storyline and not get mad and quit.
Well, I am glad I got to finish the storyline as I found it fun and enjoyable. If you get your hands on the game play the missions. I mean yeah shooting people online is fun and all, but the missions are some of the best I have seen.

Mike and I got some more work done today on Ionic Wars. Mike has added a few new mission pictures and I got some code done that now allows us to strip items from the player’s inventory if it is required for a mission. So if you get 10 scrap metal you might be able to turn them in to a guy for a reward. After the mission started the 10 scrap metal would be removed from your inventory.
Also I guess there might be an issue with faction rep not getting added to the account correctly. I will have to look into that soon.

General, Minecraft No Comments
We opened a public MineCraft server a few weeks back. Its fun and all, but it seems like some want to build cool things, and others just want to destroy others work. So we wanted to try something else that would protect the hard working players.
So we decided to launch another MineCraft server. We set up the new server to be private. The idea is that people start playing on the public server, and if they build cool stuff and respect the other players we will promote them to the other server. We hope this will keep the good players and filter out the bad ones.
You can find the public server at the link below.

You will need a MineCraft account, otherwise it will just generator a private game where you will be alone.

General, Teamspeak No Comments
I might have missed the launch of Teamspeak 3, but it is about time! It has been in development forever. I think the earth was still in development when it started.
Anyways it finally came out a few weeks ago. Well, as soon as I seen it I was making plans to get a server. I like a lot of the new features, I think Ventrilo might need to do something quick tho. I like both Ventrilo and Teamspeak, but Teamspeak is just easier with people to use I believe.
Anyways, I just thought I would say something about it. I will be posting a page soon with the connection details. Anyone that is a gamer is welcome to join.

It is not that I did not like the Tumblr.com’s system, I did. It was the fact that no one could comment and it was not totally hosted by me. So I packed up my website bags and moved back home to my own hosting.
Anyways now that I am back on good ‘ol Wordpress, I can get started again. This time I plan on posting more about my projects and all the geek stuff I do. I do not do much geek stuff… okay, everything I do is geek stuff.
Oh, what do you think of the theme? You can comment now… remember. I like the whole notebook thing. Makes me think I am keeping notes or something.
