Stand Together: The Gaming Community vs SOPA/PIPA

January 18th, 2012 / No Comments » / by Atomics

The ESA, the self-appointed lobbyist of the gaming and media industry is still throwing their weight behind SOPA and PIPA. These two bills will crush our free and open Internet we cherish so much. ESA’s largest income comes from the Electronic Entertainment Expo, also know as E3. We ask everyone out there to contact your favorite game company, Internet sites, and reviewers and ask them to remove there support of E3 by not attending or reporting on the event. Many of these company have already publicly spoken out against SOPA and PIPA. Now lets see them backup your words with action. Spread this message and video around everywhere, your favorite blogs, gaming sites, news sites, forums, and let the world know how we feel about these destructive bills attempting to be passed by Congress.

SW:TOR Eternity Vault Raid Revealed

September 1st, 2011 / No Comments » / by Atomics

Bioware showed off at PAX 2011 one of the raid available at launch in Star Wars: The Old Republic. From what I saw it looks like it going to take a lot of coordination and teamwork to complete these but should be fun. Looking forward to the finally getting a full beta invite to the game. I had a chance to help out in few focus tests but would love to see the game in a wide scope.
